I’ve struggled with finding the perfect routine for my hair for years. I have very fine, straight hair that I highlight, so it takes work to keep it healthy and make it hold a style. I’ve outlined my entire hair care routine in this post, to share what’s worked for me after years of tweaking and trying.

Each Christmas morning my family pours a mimosa and opens stockings. Getting little, fun, and useful items is the best way to kick off Christmas morning! Getting a few gifts to add into someone's stocking can bring an extra smile to their face. Especially if you won't spend the morning with someone you love, sneaking in a few gifts to their stocking would be a fun surprise!

Subscription boxes may have passed the peak of their craze, but I loved them to find new products, try new trends and even get some of my favorite products in travel size. I've subscribed to Birchbox since probably 2014 and Sephora Play! since it first came out. Many of the products are honestly just sitting in my drawers, but some of them are new holy grail products that have introduced themselves into my daily skincare and makeup routines. Instead of committing to years of product exploration, here are all of the best finds!
