Fall Essentials

Fall is my favorite season so I could not wait to list all of my must haves!!

1. Nars Audacious lipstick 
This is the creamiest lipstick you will ever meet. Looks good all on skintones. Lasts all day and is not drying or patchy.

2. Bareminerals Blush in Beauty

Perfect color for fall and natural enough to wear everyday

3. essie Nail Polish in Carry On

This just gets the job done and you will be wanting to wear this shade all year round
(which is completely fine)

4. CARAMEL Pumpkin Swirl Candle from B&BW

You need this is your life. Going along with the pumpkin theme, this does not disappoint in the scent department and you can get 2 for 22 right now!

 5. Michael Kors Crossbody purse
I love to incorporate navy in the Fall and this purse is no exception!
This purse holds SO much and I find myself pairing it with all colors.

6. Fur Vest
Layering is everything right now and especially in the South. If its cold put more layers on and if it warms up, take some off! This is my FALL STAPLE!
Mine is no longer available but this one from American Eagle is very close to mine.
 


7. Boots
Lets talk about boots. Frye boots are my favorite because they last forever and are MADE RIGHT HERE IN THE USA!!
I wear boots almost everyday in the fall and I wouldn't like it any other way!!

Thank you so much for spending time with me today! I hope you enjoyed my post and make sure to come back every Monday, Wednesday and Friday for more Beyond Blonde


I'm not just a BLONDE, I'm BEYOND it.

First Impressions

So every now and then I will get samples from Sephora or from subscription boxes and I usually give them a try and don't think about them again. Well I have two samples that I am just going crazy about! I cannot wait to run to Sephora and pick these up!! 

The first product is Agave healing oil 


This oil smoothes, restores, and transforms unmanageable frizzy hair.
After towel dry hair, I took about a quarter size amount and worked it through my hair.
OMG! Immediately, my hair felt amazing and the frizz was gone!! 
YAY! Finally, a product that is not greasy and actually works!
Available at Sephora for $24


Number 2 is GlamGlow Powermud

The first thing you need to know about this product is that it is a mask that transforms into a cleansing oil.
I have all of the other GLAMGLOW masks and love them all so if course I wanted to try this one.

  1. First I washed my face with my Clairsonic and Purity face wash (this part is optional)
  2. I then dried my face completely
  3. I applied the mask all over my face avoiding my eye area
  4. let the mask set for 10-15 mins 
  5. Using water, I rubbed the mask into my skin so the cleansing oil does its job
  6. HOLY MOLY my skin feels amazing!!!
My skin has never felt so soft after using a mask!
I am so excited for this product because it made all of my impurities go away and calmed my red skin.

This mask is for all skin types!
The only bad thing is it is so expensive so this is a few times a month type of item
Available at Sephora for $69


Thank you for spending some time with me today!!

Remember I'm not just a Blonde, Im Beyond it.
