#amikagiftedme: The election may be out of our hands at this point, and COVID is once again getting out of control, but hey…don’t let that stop you from achieving the hairstyle of your dreams (even if you’ll be the only one to see it)! You gotta have something to look forward to, am I right? When @amika’s Triple Threat set arrived it definitely brought a smile to my face. So far it’s one of my favorite gift sets this holiday season. It includes a trio of full-sized, hair-boosting products that provide long-lasting, gorgeous results. Perk Up Dry Shampoo is a talc and aluminum-free formula that refreshes hair by absorbing excess oil and adding volume. Un.done Volume and Matte Texture Spray is a salt-free texturizing spray for sexy, tousled, undone hair with a matte finish. The Shield Anti-Humidity Spray is a heat-activated styling spray with thermal heat protection that shields hair against frizz and humidity for up to 24 hours. This set is a great collection of the styling products I can’t get enough of and is in the cutest tin packaging with high-fashion, sardine can vibes! Retails for $50 ($75 Value) #amikagiftedme #amika #octolyfamily #holidayset #haircareset #dyrshampoo #hairmask #healthyhair #hairkit #allhairiswelcome #healthyhair #sephoravibsale #vibsale #beautysale #crueltyfreebeauty #haircare #beautygifts #holidaygiftguide #holidaygiftideas #hairproducts #beautyover40 #aestheticvibes #beautygram #discoverunder5k #aestheticstyle #stylehair #effortlesschic #beautygram (at Denver, Colorado) https://www.instagram.com/p/CHLVd1kBahn/?igshid=17ujaiozhlfhm

Rumor has it...it’s FRIDAY!! Trying to forget the fact that Tuesday is Election Day since it’s (for the most part) out of our hands at this point. Unless you haven’t voted, and if not get your 🍑 to the polls! So I’m currently posting this from a relaxing bath after which I’ll be doing all the things that make myself and the space around me feel calm and cozy. Let’s all do our best to stay in a peaceful and optimistic headspace this weekend, even if it takes some extra convincing, self care, and maybe a few cocktails. No matter the outcome WE WILL get through this! A huge thank you to @nestfragrances for gifting me this beautiful Moroccan Amber candle and Sunkissed Hibiscus fragrance which, as silly as it may seem, are helping me escape reality.🥰 (at Hygge Power) https://www.instagram.com/p/CG-TqLYhAZG/?igshid=mty6fl73hlt1

QUICKIE REVIEWS:💙Just recently I started incorporating these @drdennisgross gems into my routine and spoiler alert…I’m really enjoying every one of them. Hyaluronic Marine™ Makeup Removing Meltaway Cleanser: Rich, milky texture; non-foaming; light, fresh fragrance; does a great job removing makeup (even waterproof mascara) without leaving any residue; doesn’t irritate my eyes; a little goes a long way. Reminds me of a cold cream that’s had a makeover for 2020 and I’m a fan! 5oz for $30 Hyaluronic Marine Hydration Booster: This is a booster so it has a thinner, essence-like consistency that can be used in a variety of ways; I like to just pat a few drops into my skin after toner; it absorbs quickly and layers well under products and makeup; leaves my skin feeling well hydrated and calm; helps achieve that smooth, youthful bounciness. I didn’t expect to like this as much as I do but I truly love the texture because it allows me to layer over my HA without feeling too heavy. Such a wonderful addition as the temps drop and air gets dryer! 1oz for $68 Alpha Beta® Ultra Gentle Daily Peel for Sensitive Skin: The gentlest version of their infamous peel pads; love the combination of Lactic Acid, Mandelic Acid and Willow Bark Extract; the addition of Colloidal Oatmeal is such a wonderful compliment to this formula and perfect for this time of year as our barriers become more compromised but we also feel the need for exfoliation. These pads really agree with my skin and with a couple of uses my face is visibly smoother and has a noticeable glow. 30 treatments + 5 bonus for $88 If you’re interested in trying any of these, they’ll be included in the Sephora Holiday Savings Event starting tomorrow. Spot anything you’d like to check out? *gifted via @chancekatzer #365inskincare #drdennisgross #topshelfie #skincareblogger #skinsta #aestheticvibes #beautygram #discoverunder5k #skincarereview #beautyandthebites #beautyover40 #shelfie #bblogger #skincareroutine #skincarejunkie #agegracefully #skincareaddict #skincareregime #beautycommunity #skincare #skincareflatlay #instabeauty #ipeel #skincaretips #skinstagram #hyaluronicacid #makeupremover #sensitiveskin #sephorasale (at Denver, Colorado) https://www.instagram.com/p/CG77BnpBIUK/?igshid=1y189wclg8p94

You can’t knock the hustle…or a stellar gift set from @amika! #amikagiftedme their BROOKLYN HUSTLE: Haircare Bestsellers Starter Set that includes a full-sized, award-winning Perk Up Dry Shampoo, a Soulfood Nourishing Mask, and Supernova Moisture and Shine Cream. At $28 ($49 value) it’s already a great deal but the upcoming @sephora VIB Sale is a great opportunity to receive an additional discount! Perk Up alone retails for $25 and is by far one of my favorite dry shampoos so this set is such a great deal and allows you (or a friend) to try @amika’s bestsellers! #amika #trendingatsephora #octolyfamily #holidayset #haircareset #dyrshampoo #hairmask #healthyhair #hairkit #allhairiswelcome #healthyhair #sephoravibsale #vibsale #beautysale #crueltyfreebeauty #haircare #beautygifts #holidaygiftguide #holidaygiftideas #hairproducts #beautyover40 #aestheticvibes #beautygram #discoverunder5k #aestheticstyle #stylehair #effortlesschic #beautygram (at Denver, Colorado) https://www.instagram.com/p/CG2okV_BmA0/?igshid=gdvhragiouhr

Do you ever wake up and your skin feels uncomfortably tight and dehydrated? Well that was me this morning and just 1 month into Fall I was already feeling like scratching my face off! Then I remembered the Natural Glow Facial Oil from @makurskin that @spencerlaurenpr recently sent over and I ran to put it on. My friends, let me tell you…IT’S GOOOOD! First of all, it’s very rare for me to find a facial oil that I really like and this is already tops my list because it’s weightless and absorbs beautifully w/o leaving my skin feeling (or looking) greasy. Instead my face felt immediately more comfortable and balanced with just a few tiny drops. It has a really lovely aroma too that is herbal and refreshing with a hint of warmth and spice. This unique facial oil is a multi-correctional elixir of 8 nutrient dense oils that have been expertly formulated to hydrate like a moisturizer and nourish like a serum. Now that I’ve tried this beauty I can already tell that it will become an essential part of my Fall/Winter routine and look forward to the long term benefits. $72 for 30ml | 1oz. *gifted #365inskincare #fallskincareroutine #dryskinroutine #facialoil #topshelfie #skincareblogger #skinsta #aestheticvibes #beautygram #discoverunder5k #skincarereview #beautyandthebites #beautyover40 #shelfie #bblogger #skincareroutine #skincarejunkie #agegracefully #skincareaddict #skincareregime #beautycommunity #skincare #skincareflatlay #instabeauty #skincaretips #skinisin #skinstagram #winterskinroutine #parisianvibes #aestheticedit (at Denver, Colorado) https://www.instagram.com/p/CG0KWTVhzh5/?igshid=t8rbai9nuva4

Transition time! 🍁🍂 Now that it seems like temps are going to (mostly) remain a bit cooler here in Denver I’ll be going through my wardrobe and beauty stash this week, switching to more Fall/Winter appropriate items.

I LOVE BREAD! (cue Oprah meme) So when #uprisinggiftedme 2 cubes of their Keto Friendly, Superfood Bread I immediately began researching what I would make first with them. After stumbling across a recipe from @skinnytaste I decided on a keto friendly variation of her Whipped Ricotta Toast with Roasted Tomatoes and it tastes a good as it looks! The @uprising_superfood_bread is a "one-of-a-kind" cube-shaped loaf of low carb (2 net carbs per slice), keto friendly and gluten free bread that doesn’t skimp on quality or taste. It’s a bit denser than your average bread but has a wonderful sourdough flavor that I really enjoy! Since they do not use any preservatives these cube-shaped loaves are not pre-sliced and each cube should yield about 8-10 slices. This is such a great option for anyone with dietary restrictions, food allergies or those just trying to minimize their carb intake. It’s also super filling (was only able to finish 1 of these at lunch) and has awesome gut-health benefits. This Keto Friendly, Superfood Bread is available at http://www.uprisingfood.com. Use my promo code ANDTHEBITES to get Free Shipping on your first Starter Bundle order. You’ll find the full recipe in my stories and under my “Tasty Bites” highlight. #uprisingfood #keeprising #octolyfamily #ketofriendly #ketorrecipes #paleo #lowcarb #lowcarbmeals #lowcarbrecipes #glutenfree #glutenfreemeals #beautyover40 #superfoods #huffposttaste #cleaneating #ketonewbie #ketofit #ketoforbeginners #ketocommunity #ketoforwomen #ketoideas #ketocooking #gethealthy #beauytandthebites #aestheticstyle #healthymealideas #glutenfreebread #ketobread (at Denver, Colorado) https://www.instagram.com/p/CGkj16LBMVG/?igshid=1mnx4akr3ghuy

Crisp white tee. Perfectly broken-in jeans. Lipstick to add a pop of color. Timeless gold necklaces effortlessly layered. Absolute perfection! 👌🏼✨I definitely have a bit of a uniform that I stick to and it always includes a piece or two from @gorjana to finish off the look. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Lately I've been wearing this Evil Eye Charm Necklace* ($55) non-stop. It's so delicate and layers perfectly with all of my #gorjana pieces including this Tiger Totem Necklace* ($65). Their totem necklaces are meant to represent your spirit animal and each one holds qualities to "help you navigate through life with more confidence and ease". The Tiger represents personal power and courage which definitely spoke to me! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ If you’re interested, I'd appreciate it SO much if you'd shop through the Gorjana link in my bio (affiliated). #gorjanagirl ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ *Gifted #gorjanaambassador #livelovelayer #outfitinspo #jewelry #goldaesthetic #outfitideas #lookoftheday #beachyvibes #goldenhour #beachlovers #socal #lagunabeach #socallife #aestheticvibes #beautygram #discoverunder5k #beautyandthebites #beautyover40 #bblogger # #instabeauty #minimalistbeauty #aestheticstyle #effortlesschic #parisianvibes #aestheticedit #parisianamour #effortlesschic (at gorjana) https://www.instagram.com/p/CGX-YxwBS2I/?igshid=cxyk20rn2hho

Ch-ch-ch-ch-changes 🎶 ‘Tis the season to transition our skincare routines which for me means nourishing my skin with ALL of the hydrating, soothing, barrier replenishing ingredients. Here are 3 of my Fall/Winter #beautymusthaves (and their corresponding @yonkausa products): ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ 𝐂𝐥𝐞𝐚𝐧𝐬𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐌𝐢𝐥𝐤: Lait Nettoyant* is a 2-in-1 milky cleanser makeup remover that features a botanical blend of brown algae, lipids and a plant-derived terpene to soothe and moisturize the skin. This is a richer milk cleanser that’s gentle and very comforting on dry, irritated skin. It does have a light but “perfume-esque” aroma that may not suit everyone. Doesn’t irritate my eyes but didn’t remove waterproof mascara. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ 𝐇𝐲𝐝𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐓𝐨𝐧𝐞𝐫: Lotion Yon-Ka PS Invigorating Mist* for normal, dry and sensitive skin is an iconic toner composed of 5 essential oils for a multi-beneficial toning, purifying and invigorating effect. I really like how the pump component slowly dispenses a fine mist that manages to cover your entire face w/ one spray. It leaves the skin feeling instantly refreshed and hydrated, absorbs beautifully w/o any residue, and layers well w/ other products. Truly a spa experience in a bottle! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ 𝐇𝐲𝐝𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐒𝐞𝐫𝐮𝐦: Booster Hydra+ Hydrating Solution* is technically a concentrate that’s added to your moisturizer to boosts its hydrating effects. Enhanced by blackcurrant, raspberry, and horse chestnut extracts, its water-based formula will not clog pores and is perfect for quick hydration during travel or seasonal changes. This blends really well with a wide variety of moisturizers from lightweight gel-creams to lipid-rich creams and helps reduce that tautness and sensitivity that often comes with the change of seasons. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ *Gifted w/o obligation (at Paris, France) https://www.instagram.com/p/CGS87IIBhyf/?igshid=1vf849vnbdf9p
