Weekend Happenings, and Rosehip Oil!

Last weekend I FINALLY made myself weekend vlog. These are some of my favorites videos to watch, so I don't know why it's been so hard to film but it was like pulling teeth!

Here's a little about what I did this weekend!

One of the coolest things about last weekend was getting my Leven Rose Rosehip Oil in the mail, as you saw in the video.

As you can see, I colored my hair and I've been putting some rosehip oil on the ends of my hair and all over my face as a moisturizer, and it seems to be working really well! My skin always feels amazing in the morning after putting it on at night. I am a huge fan. And I love this packaging as well, with the dropper and the little rose on the label! I've used it every morning and night since I got it last Saturday and I'm really excited about the results I'm seeing already!

I've been trying to go more natural with my skincare routine, and use more oils rather than creams or moisturizers or formulas. I've found that organic oils, like this rosehip oil, have really done wonders for my skin and hair. I used to use Argan oil almost exclusively, but the Physician's Formula version that I had always felt a bit greasy on my hair and heavy on my skin. This rosehip oil feels really light, and you only really need a couple of drops to cover your whole face, and maybe two more to moisturize the neck and décolletage. I've been using it both morning and night in place of a moisturizer and I am really happy with it.

If you want to get your own 100% organic oil, you can find the one I got here: Leven Rose Rosehip Oil

Do you like follow me around type vlogs? What are your plans for this weekend?


I received this product in exchange for my honest and unbiased review.

Collaboration.

A few weeks ago, when I was just barely starting out on Youtube, I had a random encounter with Tima, from TimaLovesLemons. It was completely random, she checked me out at a TJ Maxx a few towns over from my own. I was there by happenstance, and just happened to mention my Boxycharm video, which she just happened to pick up on, and next thing I know, we were exchanging numbers and planning a collab video.

It's just crazy how things happen sometimes, right? If you look back on the little choices you've made in your life, and how they've lead you to where you are right now. If Tima had gone on break a few minutes earlier, or if I had decided not to buy anything, or if I hadn't been brave enough to mention my channel. I never would've met this awesome girl who has helped me so much, answered questions and given me advice and just generally built me up. It's been such a lifesaver to be able to sit next to someone in real life and tell them what's happening, ask them about little quirks or things that worry me. Tima has over 8,000 subscribers now, and by featuring me on her channel, she's helped me gain more too! I love meeting people with my same interests, who have my same goals and ambitions, and who are actually getting there. Maybe, with any luck, I'll hit that number one day!

In the mean time, here's the video we filmed for my channel. It was such a blast, and I sort of came up with the idea on my own. I think it turned out pretty fun, if I do say so myself!

May 2015 Boxycharm Review

Boxycharm is a monthly beauty subscription program where, for a small fee of $21, you get a box of 5-6 full sized products each month.

I absolutely love Boxycharm. I've been getting it for three months now and I've loved every month. The box retails for an average of $120 each month, so it's a smokin' deal! That said, this month's box was far and away my favorite of the three. Let's take a look at my goodies!
