living my best life, experiencing the best books
I love a good sale. I am sure that most people are with me in that sense. Being able to save money and getting a good deal on an item is a great feeling, but sales aren't always as great as they seem. It is currently the Sephora fall sale and I have been getting …
My bathroom vanity and cabinets used to be stuffed with extra products; shampoo, bubble bath, and more body lotions that I could even count. I used to think that I didn't just need one backup, but multiple or else I would be doomed. I am so much happier now that I don't have backups upon …
