LOOSE WAVES WITH THE BEDHEAD CURLIPOPS JUMBO WAND
If you haven’t noticed, my go to hairstyle these days has been loose big waves. When Bed Head Styling sent me their NEW Bed Head Curlipops™ 1 1/2” Jumbo Pop Wand, I was so excited to try it! My hair is long and thick, so a curling wand with a large barrel is my favorite type of tool to style it with. I have always been a huge fan of Bed Head Styling products and appliances, and this wand is by far one of my favorites that I have tried. Bed Head Styling appliances are for the girls that want to stand out! They are perfect for everyday use or…

FESTIVAL HAIR WITH THE BED HEAD WAVE ARTIST
When I am planning my outfit and hair for a festival, I always go for a cool, edgy, and easy style. When Bed Head asked me to create a festival look with their Wave Artist Tourmaline Ceramic Deep Waver, I knew the perfect hair style I wanted to create: my go to messy top knot! I get so many questions on this hairstyle, and believe it or not, it is actually SO easy. The top knot goes best with a messy wave, and the Wave Artist is the best way to get the look!

SUMMER BEAUTY ESSENTIALS
There is nothing better than having that just walked in from the beach look during the summer! I tend to go for a natural sun kissed look and fun low maintenance hair during the warm months, because nothing is worse than being all glammed up and then sweating it all off (I’m looking at you Texas heat). It is also SO important to take care of your skin and protect it against the harsh sun. I have listed my favorite summer beauty essentials that I am using to get that glow, take care of my skin, and keep my hair looking summer ready!

SELF TANNER: MY FAVORITE PRODUCTS & APPLICATION TIPS
TOP: NORDSTROM (here) // DENIM SHORTS: H&M (similar here) // HEADBAND: FOREVER21 (similar here and here) // SANDALS: DV (here) Confession: I used to lay in a tanning bed almost every day in high school, and I loved it… Looking back now, I know how dumb my teenage self was for putting my skin under UV lights. In college, I discovered spray tans and my life changed. There is just something about a spray tan that makes you feel airbrushed and flawless! While I don’t mind splurging on a spray tan for big events, that expense adds up. I’ve been trying out lots of self tanning products that are cost efficient…

BEST AT HOME TEETH WHITENING SYSTEM
I am a coffee addict. If you know me, that statement comes as no surprise. I have to have at least one cup a day or I get severe headaches. Not good I know, but I just can’t live without it. With that being said, my morning coffees have left my teeth stained. I have always been a little self conscious about it, but never found a whitening process that I loved, or that wasn’t crazy expensive. When Smile Brilliant reached out, I was so excited! I had heard so many great things about their at home teeth whitening system and was dying to try it. After a few weeks…
