Glossier and Barkbox announced their collaboration, and on Friday, September 6, the collection dropped on Bark. The dog toys sold out almost instantly and is currently only available at a limited edition in the NY and LA Glossier stores. This is terrible news if you can’t make it to a Glossier store. It does, however, seem like BARK will be restocking the two popular toys, and hopefully so very soon. If you managed to get your hands on one of the toys, let us know what you think about it!
If you are willing to wait and keep your eyes out, this is good news. But, if you don’t care too much about the specific collab you are in luck. The number of cute dog toys we can buy our furry best friends is unlimited. And even though this was a very fun collaboration dog toys serve one purpose. To make our furry friends a tad happier. Here are a few picks of other fun, cute, toys you can buy for your best friend.
One thing I have learned about goop is that they have revolutionized expensive skincare. I received the goop GOOPGLOW Microderm Instant Glow Exfoliator in the mail and had no idea what the price of this jar was before I did a quick google search. For the high expense of $125 plus taxes, this exfoliator can be yours. The question is, is it worth the price? Well, I will tell you if it is without you having to spend the money to find out!
My first impression when I opened the jar was “Oh my god, I need to use this.” When you open it up, it looks like a whipped mousse, and you just want to touch it. For an exfoliator, this is a rare thing since it would usually look a bit more coarse. The smell is similar to other GOOPGLOW products. A subtle citrus smell resembling Vitamin C without being overpowering.
goop describes the goop GOOPGLOW Microderm Instant Glow Exfoliator as “a dual-action microdermabrasion exfoliator that delivers the benefits of both physical and chemical exfoliation, instantly polishing away roughness, smoothing uneven texture, and revealing a healthy-looking, glowing complexion”. Some of the key ingredients are micro-exfoliating minerals, glycolic acids, and Australian Kakadu plum.
I only exfoliate my skin when I feel like it’s dull and really needs it. I have used the goop GOOPGLOW Microderm Instant Glow Exfoliator for about a month now and think I have a pretty good experience with the product. My first impression of the product was, of course, the texture. I had never felt an exfoliator that was whipped and so soft. You also need the tiniest amount for your entire face, which may in some ways, make up for the steep price.
There is no doubt that the product works, and that it works really well. The end results have always been a soft, fresh face without redness or irritation. I do feel sometimes that exfoliators do not work the way that I want them too. But, the goop GOOPGLOW Microderm Instant Glow Exfoliator did work exactly the way I wanted to without excessive use. I’ve used it about 2 times per week and my skin has had a great past month. Breakouts have been minimal even during my period, and I have felt like Ive had more glow.
Personally, I think the price is absolutely outrageous, and I would probably not spend the money. Unless absolutely nothing else worked for me. But, I would buy this product as a staple and use only this one product because it is that good. If you have an exfoliator that works wonder for you, stay with it. If you feel like your skin is dull and nothing else works, save up the money and try it out. goop does not offer returns on any time that has been opened or used, so you really need to commit if you decide to purchase.

Living in the city can be a real problem for your skin. Especially when you live in a big dense city with a lot of pollution like Los Angeles. I have definitely noticed how my skin has suffered from moving here. I am always trying to find great products to help my skin looking fresh, young and glowing. As the season change, my skin changes as well. But, it will always be a combination of an oily t-zone and dry to normal.
As mentioned, this cleanser is well suited for anyone with combination skin. The cleanser exfoliates dry skin and helps deep clean your skin. It also removes dirt, oil and clean out your pores. The cleanser is oil free and has a pH balanced-formula which will leave your skin smooth and refreshed. I personally saw instant results the morning after using the Cleanser. My pores are visibly less noticeable, and my skin feels soft and clean. The product was not harsh on my skin and I feel like I had a more balanced skin tone all over my face with less redness than usual. Blue Agave is known for soothing and nourishing the skin, so it makes sense that my skin looks and feel so good.
So besides for cleansing out the dirt and pollution. Why not use a mask to go even deeper and replenish your skin? All you need is 3-5 minutes (do not leave the mask on for longer than 5 minutes). The menthol in the detox mask creates an intense pore-tingly clean. The mask is whipped so it has a creamy texture and is very easy to apply onto skin. Once applied it has a cooling sensation and a small tingle. The menthol did not affect my skin in a negative way at all and now my skin feels so clean and smooth!
*Please note: Not for sensitive skin consumers or those with sensitives to menthol as it may cause short term flushing of the skin.*
If youâre interested in learning more, you can find further information about these products on biore.com. These products are also available at Walmart, ULTA, Target and Amazon.
The pore strips, if you’re not familiar with them already, helps lifting clogged pores and blackheads on and around your nose where you tend to be producing the most oil. These strips deep clean, remove blackheads, refine pores, and help prevent future breakouts. Using the toner after the pore strip helps with restoring the skins natural balance.
If you’re interested in checking these out i suggest that you go to your closest Walmart or you can find the toner here and the Pore Strips here.
This is the season to keep up with your skincare routine so I wanted to share this 12 Days To Glow Advent Calendar with you guys. Its a great gift for yourself or someone else and even though Christmas is almost here it doesn’t necessary have to be an advent calendar. Its just a fun idea to open and get a new item every day for 12 days. The back of the packaging does reveal the calendars contents, but you don’t know which day you will get what.
The calendar features 12 travel sized products to help your skin glow during this winter season. My favorite part about these calendars are that you get the chance to try something new AND the travel friendly sizes can be used for your holiday travels as well. I know for sure that a few of these items will be coming with me on my Portland trip!Â
Do you guys have any favorite beauty calendars this year? Share them in the comment section đÂ
Unfortunately it seems like the calendar has sold out, but Dermalogica has a ton of other Holiday Gift Sets available if you click here.Â

If you have followed me for the past few months, you know one of my biggest changes this year was to take the time to take better care of myself. That included eating better, working out more, and also creating a good skincare routine for myself. During these past 4 months, I have seen significant change in my skin and it has definitely been for the better. A lot of it thanks to Olay.I think that for many of you time is the biggest challenge. But making small changes doesnât have to take up a lot of time of your day. That is why I love the Olay Total Effects Whip Facial Moisturizer so much. The Olay Whip Moisturizer is a lightweight, nourishing moisturizer rich of Vitamin C and E. Thanks to the transformation from cream to liquid, fast absorption, matte and shine-free finish you can start your makeup routine right after application.
I picked up the Olay Total Effects Whip Facial Moisturizer ($29.99) at CVS and I have been using the Whip Moisturizer for almost two weeks now. I am obsessed with using it at the start of my day as a base for everything else. I have been wearing minimal makeup as the Olay Total Effects Whip Facial Moisturizer have helped evening out my skin tone and also made it look brighter. Having good skin really boosts my confidence and while wearing makeup is fun, the key is always flawless skin.
Since I am still in my early 20s I would also love to try the Olay Luminous Tone Perfecting Cream to help with my pink tones and also some sun spots. The Olay Total Effects Whip Facial Moisturizer would be more recommended if you are in your 30s and if you are in your 40s or older I would recommend the Olay Regenerist Night Recovery Cream Face Moisturizer. These can all be found at CVS. I would love for you to try our Olay Whips and let me know what you think of it as well!Â

Ever since I can remember enlarged pores has been one of my main skin concerns. I was blessed in my teens and never had acne problems. But, enlarged pores is something I have always had. Everyone has pores, but some of us just has larger, more visible pores. Did you know that we have around 200,000 pores on our face?

One of the most important things during these dry and cold winter months is to hydrate my skin from head to toe. That is why I have absolutely loved the new Cleansing Infusion line from Olay. This Olay line removes impurities and draws in hydration for a glowing, hydrated skin. The scents include Deep Sea Kelp with Aloe Extract as well as Crushed Ginger. The whole line is about taking better care of ourselves and glow up.
One problem that occurs for me during the winter months is that my skin gets dry causing a lot of dry spots. Both on my body and on my face. The Cleansing Infusion Hydrating Glow Facial Cleanser has really helped me maintain a hydrated and glowing skin. Without being harsh on my skin. Although The Cleansing Infusion Hydrating Glow Facial Cleanser has a microscrub formula, it is very gentle so it works for everyday usage.
Olay Cleansing Infusion Microscrubbing Crushed Ginger Hydrating Glow Body Wash and Microscrubbing Cleansing Infusion Deep Sea Kelp Hydrating Glow Body Wash are absolutely amazing. The wash has a smooth and creamy formula with a very gentle Microscrubbing. But after use it feels like it has drawn out dirt and impurities to replace it with smooth and hydrated skin.My favorite one is the lay Cleansing Infusion Microscrubbing Crushed Ginger Hydrating Glow Body Wash. I just love the light scent of ginger.

Self care is my number one priority this year, besides from doing well in school. I have never been the person to wear a ton of makeup to cover anything up. On the contrary I love the on-the-go natural look even more. Makeup is fun, but wearing too much is not good for my skin. Neutrogena recently introduced their new Hydro Boost line. Top rated by several beauty publications, whom better to try it out than me? The products have hyaluronic acids in it to help naturally hydrate your skin. This makes them extremely lightweight and not at all oily. Neutrogena is an extremely affordable makeup and skincare brand. You can find the Hydro Boost collection at your local Walmart. I was very pleased to se a well stocked isle at my  Walmart.
I picked up three products from the Neutrogena Hydro Boost Cosmetics line. The hydrating tint foundation, hydrating concealer and hydrating lip treatment. Honestly, the lip treatment excited me the most. Although my skin in general gets very dry during the Winter season. My lips are the worst at any season. A lot of times I find drugstore brands to not be as good as brands with higher price point. Needless to say, I was pleasantly surprised by how much I liked the Hydro Boost Lip Treatment from Neutrogena. I applied it in the morning and by the afternoon my lips still felt moisturized! Costing less than $10 this is definitely a runner up to my otherwise $24 lip oil.
Neutrogena Hydro Boost hydrating tint is a very light foundation. You will find a range of colors from fair to dark.  Natural Beige 60 was a perfect match for me down to the undertone. The foundation looks flawless and like my own skin. Combined with the Hydro Boost hydrating concealer I have everything I need for a simple on the go look. Using only these three products its a simple three step on-the-go beauty routine to follow that takes less than 10 minutes to do.  Although hydrating, the products looks very natural and matte once applied.
Have you tried the Hydro Boost products? If so, what did you think of them? Leave a comment down below. If you haven’t tried the products yet I have a discount code under the next photo for you to use! If you are prone to brake outs, I also have a code for the Skin Clearing line for your use.
