The Beauty of Spring

Now that the weather is finally getting warmer it is time to update my Beauty regimen accordingly. Spring always means more time outside which means I will need to protect my skin against the harsh UV rays. I am using Aveeno Positively Radiant Daily Moisturizer with SPF 15. I love this product because it is two in one; it moisturizes while protecting. I have also started using Neutrogena naturals fresh cleansing + makeup remover. This product is wonderful because it has a very light and natural cleanser that also helps to soften and refresh your skin. At night I am applying Boscia Tsubaki Deep Hydration Sleeping Mask. Yes, you read that correctly sleeping mask and it is amazing because all you do is massage it onto your face at night and it goes to work while you sleep. Lastly, I am treating my locks with Garnier Fructis Triple Nutrition Miracle Dry Oil. The sun really does a number on my hair in the Spring and Summer months so I am testing out this oil to hopefully battle the damage. I would love to hear what products you are using and why. See you tomorrow!

Old House Depot

This past weekend I decided I would do a little exploring/rediscovering my hometown of Jackson, Ms. I figured this would be a great idea since I will be moving back there after I graduate from MSU in May! I was thrilled to find Old House Depot hidden across from the fairgrounds in downtown Jackson. It was like finding a diamond in the ruff simply because I didn't know that we had a salvage yard like this in Jackson. There were so many interesting pieces inside that could lend themselves to the renovation of a home or just a weekend DIY project. I know I will be visiting Old House Depot many more times once I move back. With that being said if you are looking for old doors, shutter, mantels, glass doorknobs, or old piece of lumber this is the place for you!
