Creator Day & Ipsy Live Preview Recap!

So by now you know that last Friday night I went down to Manhattan to attend Ipsy Creator Day and a preview of their Ipsy Live event (previously known as GenBeauty). I was invited to the event by Ipsy OpenStudios and was so honored to be chosen out of tons & tons of other amazing creators. 

I headed down on the train and grabbed a quick drink with one of my HS girlfriends-Hey Shan! who I haven't seen in years. It was the perfect kick off to the night. Once I got to the venue, Center415 I hopped on a short line and headed right inside. The evening started with a panel to help teach us how to create long lasting partnerships with brands. I found the panelists very informational and I learned a lot of tips...I mean hello, Lipsticknick was there & what she says goes! 

Prints for Fall! | How to Guide

I know, I know…you’re probably thinking…this isn’t groundbreaking but hear me out! I feel like you can get lost when it comes to prints and patterns for fall because there’s so many different ones and they’re all so good! So I figured I’d break it down for you here making it a little bit easier to navigate the most talked about trend for the new season!

Must Haves from Hudson Square Boutique!

There's a new spot in town & I'm so excited to have a new boutique to pop into! I love the space that Danielle and Veronica created-it's crisp, so on trend, and is so inviting. I cannot wait to head in and do a try on for you very, very soon! But in the meantime, I rounded up my faves to share here and the best part is you don't have to live in the HV to enjoy the space these lovely ladies created-you can shop everything online-cue the "yasssss queeeeen" emoji hands!! && and even bigger bonus, I have a coupon code I can share so you can SAVE 15% ON EVERY PURCHASE: BLONDE15

Beauty Products I Always Repurchase

As much as I love to hear what people grabbing that's new to them, I find it more interesting to know what they ALWAYS repurchase. The are the products that I want to get my hands on...the tried and true ones, the ones that they can't live without, or would run out to buy if they were away and forgot it at home, that's the shiz that I care about. Today, I'm FINALLY sharing my ride or dies with you and they are almost ALL drugstore!!

Easy Three Ingredient Banana Muffins

I'm not a kitchen wizard...I can cook you dinner, but it's not going to be the fanciest meal you've ever had which is why I don't share too many recipes, but the fall is the time of year I always want something baking especially on a football Sunday! I don't know about you, but I buy bananas every single week (they're my fave fruit!)...and almost every single week, they go bad. Idk what it is, but bananas don't last the way they used to (woah, I sound 72 years old...don't point that out in the comments please, lololol). So I knew I wanted to make a banana bread thing of some sorts, but I decided to jazz it up with some of my favorite things to add to bananas. 

So without further ado, I give you, my EASY minimum of three (!) ingredient banana muffins!
