First Impression and Review! Clean and Clear Morning Burst Hydrating Gel Moisturizer

I'm so excited to tell you guys about this product! Hopefully just by that first sentence you can tell that I've found a new love.

One of the first things you notice about a new product is the smell, and this is a winner.The smell alone would make me repurchase. Like all of the Morning Burst products from Clean and Clear the smell is really the catch. The whole idea is the "wake you up scent" and the bursting beads, an this moisturizer is no different. The smell is great.

Another perk for me is that it's oil free. For someone with extremely oily skin, it's really hard to find a good moisturizer that doesn't leave my face completely slippery. (On a side note, a lot of people think people with oily skin don't need moisturizer, but that's not true. Our skin still needs the moisture, but we shouldn't use one that is overpowering with oils.) i can say it really does stand by its word in being oil-free. The product is smooth to apply but it blends into the skin nicely and sinks in without leaving a residue.

One other unique thing about this, is that it's gel. I feel like that's rare to find with a drugstore product. That alone made me want to give it a shot, and thank goodness I did. Not only is it something different then I'm used to trying (and I'm a sucker for new stuff) but it really does a great job.

Overall, a wonderful product if you ask me! And for the price, roughly $4-$7, it's absolutely worth it.

Personal Planner Setup

I have been using a planner for as long as I can remember. My little OCD self needs something to keep me grounded and on track. About 3 years ago I discovered Erin Condren as well as the planner community on social media (if you are a planner person check them out, it is such a positive and supportive group of people). If you're not familiar, the Erin Condren Life Planner is an A5 size planner (7" by 9") and is a thick planner. For me, this type of planner is not convenient for every day use so this planner stays at home on my desk and is used mostly for my creative side, not functionality. This brings me to my personal size planner, I use a Kate Spade Wellesley planner which can be bought at the Kate Spade Outlet stores (these outlets will ship to you so call around if you don't live close to one and are interested). Currently as pictured above I am using the red version which was re-released this Summer, and I also have a black version which is always in stock....

Blogtober Day 24! DIY Remove Black Stains from Hardwood Floors

This blog is coming to you by accident, of course. I don't know if I've mentioned it much on this blog, but I have two pitbulls. I know, a lot to handle, and one of them is a puppy. She is horrible sometimes, but I can't help but love her. Our whole house is hardwood floors, which I love! With my two dogs, if the happen to have an accident it's really easy to clean up...or so I thought. We have had a large living room rug down for about 6 months now. Over the weekend we decided to take it outside and air it out and do a little "Fall Cleaning". Low and behold underneath the rug were huge dark black spots on the hardwood. I immediately jumped on Pinterest to see what to do. It turns out dogs urine causes the wood to turn black (who knew?). So I found a solution that I'm really excited to share with you. Peroxide! Awesome, I had plenty on hand and immediately started to try it out. At first I used a paint brush to apply it to the specific areas. Almo...

DIY IKEA Kitchen Shelf

It is finally complete! I have been working on decorating this bad boy for a few weeks now and I'm in love! Thanks to my dear husband we were able to turn this cheap IKEA shelving unit into an adorable farmhouse style kitchen shelf pretty easily. See below for our step by step! This is the IKEA Mulig Shelving Unit which is $59.99 for the largest size. This measures 47 1/4x13 3/8x63 3/4 " We purchased a 3/4" piece of plywood at Home Depot in which we got cut in store for each shelf. These measure 46 1/2" by 13" Also at a Home Depot we purchased a tube of Loctite Power Grip and a small can of Golden Pecan stain . This stain matches a few other items in our house so they would all look cohesive. Once home, let the staining begin. After one coat of stain was dry we used the Loctite to place the plywood on the shelves...
