What's in my beauty bag?

Keeping it simple....well...kinda.

I'm currently in love with Cindy Crawford's Meaningful Beauty skincare products that I ordered from an infomercial! (Yes...I know, I'm such a sucker!)  Super reasonable though. Whole set cost about 45 USD and it contains cleanser, serums, day and night cream as well as eye and neck cream. I feel it works wonders and I will be ordering it again when I run out! The ingredients in the product are mostly natural and come from a rare melon that grows in south of France. Dr Jean-Louis Sebagh, a Parisian anti-aging guru discovered the secret. This melon apparently takes longer to decay and has defied the normal aging process in melons so I don't see why it shouldn't apply to my own melon! Hence why Cindy looks so good at 50. Let's see how long I can look 30 for...I mean 21 for! hahah-I wish! 

Like shampoos, I like to mix it up and not use the same brand of skincare on my face all the time so I usually alternate and use two different brands at the one time. I am loving the No. 7 Brand and can really see why it is the number 1 best selling serum in the U.K. The texture is so silky and soft. Since it is Winter and I happen to live in the windy city, I feel it is all about protection from the dry air and harsh conditions. I lash loads of serum on and then 10 mins later, add the moisturizer. All moisturizer I use has SPF 20 or more.  

Most days I don't ware make-up, unless it's a work day and I'm called into school. I usually cover up with this Lumi Cushion from Maybelline so that I don't frighten the kids! Maybelline concealer is also my best friend and supper easy to apply! (not pictured above as I have yet again run out) I literally wear that every day to hide the black bags! 

I use a wooden comb for hair as it's supposed to better on the scalp to help stimulate hair growth. I'm really trying to grow my hair and thicken it. If anyone has any advice, please let me know below!! I am back on some prenatal vitamins to help with that and use coconut oil on my ends as a natural conditioner. I also use coconut oil on Harry's hair instead of product to keep his luscious locks in place!
