 hello loves

with my 25th birthday approaching within months my search for skin care products to ensure my youthfulness forever has gotten a little out of control.  i literally can sit on my computer and read the massive amounts of information out there about all the new products and all the amazing benefits they have and still not have a clue on what is right for me... it is horrid.  i must admit this is not how i found out about josie maran... while in line at sephora they box you in with all the sample sizes of their different products, it just isnt fair... i spend more money standing in line then when walking around shopping.  this is where i picked up josie maran daily moisturizer with SPF 40+ which contains argan oil.  i have crazy dry skin and this bad boy has wiped my skin into shape.  i am such a fan i had to share with you lovelies.  on top of balancing out my skin issues, they are a great company that supports women and fair trade, which made this product line way cooler in my book. 

pros:   has sephora's natural seal
               not greasy, heavy or oily
              safe enough to use on a baby's skin
              it is  a FAIR TRADE product!! (yay)

cons:  i haven't developed any issues with the product yet
         kind of has a perfume smell, which can throw some people off

what do you think about this product line? i think i going to try their pure argan oil next.

hey pretties

these are my three new pieces of art that i just ordered from fauxkiss on etsy.  i couldn't decide on just one, so i just got all three... plus when you order two or more pieces of her art work, she sends you a randomly selected one for free (love this idea).  her artwork is so playful and charismatic.  she takes vintage pages from books and dictionaries and then prints on them, it is a rather green and chic way to create some beautiful artwork.  i think i am going to go on a scavenger hunt around town to locate some cool vintage frames to keep with the theme of "reusing" to make something new.   i am planning on putting them in one of the boys bedrooms that i am in the process of finishing up the decor details (pictures to come when finished).  go check out her work and let me know which ones are your favs.
