happy, healthy & hot

Want long, dark, flirty lashes?

Hell yeah!  Don’t we all? My lashes have always been just ok…nothing to write home about.  Without mascara it’s like they’re barely there. But now, for the first time ever, I can say that I am thrilled with my lashes, thanks to two magical products:

This was the perfect late summer meal…

roasted chicken thighs, brussels sprouts, and butternut squash soup. And here’s some perfect late summer music… Justin Bieber’s new single, “Friends.”  It’s ok if you have ulterior motives, Justin.  Really.  Still loving “Feels” by Calvin Harris.  And “Back to You” by Louis Tomlinson and Bebe Rexha.  Oh, and “Get Low” by Liam Payne and Zedd.
