Let's do a live beauty Q&A for the next hour! 🌺 These are always so valuable for everyone (you can ask your own questions and also read through other people's questions + my responses) 🙋🏻‍♀️
⠀
Leave all skincare, hair & beauty questions below and I'll be answering live in the comments 😘⬇️

Some of my fav natural cold remedies 🙌🏼
(Do you know what “fire cider” is?🔥 it’s so gross but SO GOOD)

What do you generally prefer, alone time or being around people? ✨
I usually prefer the latter which is why I like living in cities; I feed off the energy of people around me. I actually like city noise outside my window :) 🏙 But man oh man is a little alone time good for the soul...
⠀
I had a really hectic/nonstop start to my week, so yesterday I was SO happy to see that my calendar was free after 2 pm. I went home, put on a face mask, got in bed with my laptop, and just spent a few hours sipping a latte and catching up on things that I needed to ☕️(emails, phone calls, to-do lists, etc). I feel more rested and energized today than ever!
⠀
Sometimes rest isn't about sleep, it's about giving your mind and energy a break from being ON and focusing on other people's needs (colleagues, family, friends), and just doing whatever it is you need.
⠀
Also - meditation classes are going better than i could have even imagined. I’m so excited 🤗🧘🏻‍♀️

What would you rather get on Valentine’s Day:

⠀
PS - in the spirit of V Day, I’ve got some fun surprises for you guys this week! Just to show my love and appreciation for you ❤️

Which of these skincare ingredients do you think is the best for brightening skin?
⠀
A - Retinol
B - Vitamin C
C - AHA's (like glycolic or lactic),
D - Hyaluronic Acid
⠀
Here’s a quick breakdown of each and their unique benefits:
⠀
1 🖤 Retinol - the ultimate “anti-aging” ingredient! It’s derived from vitamin A and has been really been shown to improve pigmentation, fine lines, skin texture, tone, & color
⠀
2 🖤 Vitamin C - very much known to boost your skin’s collagen production to give you firm, smooth skin, and prevent fine lines and wrinkles
⠀
3 🖤 AHA’s (alpha-hydroxy acids) - help with age spots & help shrink enlarged pores. This is gonna be your lactic and glycolic avid - very common in peels
⠀
4 🖤 Hyaluronic Acid - i can’t live without this one :) hyaluronic acid actually occurs naturally in your skin, but as you age it starts to decrease (like most things haha). You can use it twice a day everyday! So so hydrating 💙
