Anyone else sweating? Summer is finally upon us and it’s time to update our beauty routines again! That means we’re trading in our heavy foundations and dark colours for light blushes and deodorant. As we make the change it is very important that our makeup bag/toiletry kit switches out in order to look our best and not sweat our entire face off. Not to mention how uncomfortable the wrong beauty products can feel in the hot summer sun. Summer is about feeling light and airy i

As the sun finally starts to peak out and college campuses around the country are littered with shorts and floral skirts, it’s time to mix up our beanies and long tresses with some more Spring-appropriate hairstyles. While we mix up our fashion as the seasons change, we often forget that our hair is just as important as those flowers bloom. If it’s not for trends, then it’s because keeping cool in the heat is important. It’s hard to wear the same hair for 12 months a year. Th

When I was 15 I used to abuse the heck out of my hair. Blow dry and curl every day, not use heat protectant, using hair tools on wet hair, etc. If it was bad for your hair, you name it. I went into my hairdresser for a trim and she commented on how healthy and nice my hair was, and almost had a heart attack when I told her about my hair habits. I was naturally blessed with nice hair, but that is when I was 15. Now I’m about to round out my 20th year of life and my hair is no

While reading through questions and suggestions from you all, I see lots of comments about wanting to see “Inside My” posts. Inside my purse, inside my backpack, inside my closet, and finally, inside my makeup bag. Originally, I wanted to just do a quick post on what’s in my makeup bag on an everyday basis, but when I started to do that I realized that while there are certain staples I stick to, I don’t have an everyday basis makeup routine. Yesterday I wore eyeshadow, today

If there’s one thing I’m good at, it’s walking into my 8am looking like I haven’t slept in a year and haven’t stepped foot in a Sephora in my life. It’s an art, really. But that look went out of style long ago and now the entire world is sharing tips on how to look beautiful for your 4am flight. I still believe this is myth, but after trying some hacks, I am now a firm believer in the beauty for the lazy girl – or looking beautiful for your 4am flight. If you have early class

Because I love services like Birchbox and Ipsy, trying new makeup brands is something I love doing on a regular basis. But it’s important for a girl to have her tried and true brands to make sure that she doesn’t look like a dead hooker on the first date with her crush since second grade. On Fridays I do my Favourites Friday and it’s about new products I’ve tried that I love. But how often do I talk about the products that I fit into my daily life no matter how great a new pr

If you ever sit down with me and talk about my beauty routine, you know the first word that’s going to come out of my mouth is moisturizer. I am a moisturizer addict. The feeling of having plump, soft skin is glorious and is almost impossible without some moisturizer. Skin dries out all too easily, but it’s an easy fix! Choosing a moisturizer that makes your face feel amazing, without that oily gross feeling, is actually quite easy. And I’m giving you a sneak peek at my perso

Who else is ready to recover from the Favourites Friday hiatus? After spending much too much time not doing a Favourites Friday, I have a big list of favourites that I’m just waiting to share with you! It’s been a crazy few weeks (Christmas, New Years, winter break, the blog turning five, etc.) and I’m ready to get back into the normal swing of things. And by normal, I mean the enthusiastic! This week’s favourites are all the products that I have sampled/tried/purchased/etc.

It’s winter! Winter is such a beautiful season. Everything is frosty and frozen. And your skin dries up and your complexion is peaky. This means it’s time to rev up your beauty/skincare routine for the winter season. Hardcore, lightweight moisturizers. Pale, translucent eye shadow. Subtle, high-pigment blushes. Winter beauty has a very selective variation of products that are essential to looking great. And I have figured them all out! As you enter the holiday season remember

Okay, time to be real. Your skin is in need of some fall reformatting. While in the summer we can usually get away with just washing our face to bat away all the sweat, fall brings tons more needs for you to baby your skin day and night. From dryness to oil to acne caused from weather changes, you need to prepare your soldiers because a skin war is about to begin! Luckily you have your local Enthusiast here, and she has tried plenty of skin products and is here to recommend o

While we associate fall with hot chocolate and big chunky scarves, one thing that gets lots in the mix is beauty. From our hair to our skin to our nails, fall is an important to not only keep up with trends but to keep up with maintenance. Change is in the air, and our beauty routine needs to change to. From observing multiple fall beauty articles, and noticing changes in my own, I’ve compiled the 10 most important beauty essentials/tips/need-in-your-routine tips that you’ll

At 8:01 every morning I leave my apartment to spend 20 minutes in the blazing heat on my walk to work. And by 8:23 when I walk into my office my hair is matted to my neck in the grossest way possible. This is not the way to live a life! The trick to stopping this horrible way of life is to style my hair in a way that the heat has no effect. That’s why I’ve decided to share my six favourite hairstyles that keep my hair away from my sweaty neck and still look great for that wor

I may not be a beauty blogger, but that doesn’t mean that I don’t obsess over beauty products. I am a big believer that everyone is beautiful, but you can definitely enhance your beauty with certain products. I thought today I would share the products that I have sworn by over the years (or recent months) so that maybe you can get in on the good stuff. So, let’s check out what I got! Products That Keep Morgan From Looking Like a Troll Me looking pretty trolly before a final l

There was an episode of “Full House” where DJ discovers makeup. She puts so much on in an effort to be more beautiful, only for the episode to end with her learning that makeup should only enhance what you already have. I think about that episode a lot, and how it influenced how I feel about how I look. Whenever I put on makeup I always thought, “Not too much, it just needs to make me look more like me.” And I followed that for a few years. This summer I stopped wearing makeu
