Summer Hair Products

 When the summer season hits its all about given your hair the right loving care. For me leave in conditioner is always a must! I definitely use it all seasons but during the summer I keep my hair even more hydrated. Below are some fun products to keep your hair looking wonderful and healthy.

Pantene Conditioning Mist

This is my go to for straight or curly hair, it hydrates and gives your hair that healthy touch.

Alaffia Curl Hydrating Oil 

Great for adding moisture to your hair, great results for adding shine to curls or blow out.

OGX Coconut Curls

Moisture Mousse

This product has been a hit for awhile and it seems to be a fan favorite during the summer, great for helping with those frizz hairstyles after the beach. 

Neutrogena Health Scalp

Micellar Water

This makes the hair feel extra clean if you deal with oily hair, perfect smell and provides hair with a healthy scalp.

Edge Booster

Great for keeping those edges in place and without flaky residue.

Giveaway Baby Clothes

Being a mom is a blessing and also a lot of work. We are definitely the Wonder Woman gender and we for sure kick ass at it. Sometimes it can be challenging, stressful and some days you might not feel your best. But of course you always pull through it with that inner force that gives you the strength!

Since being a new mom is very new to me I am learning along the way and of course I have a great support system that helps when you need a hand.

For those that don’t get support or lack things for their baby I want to offer some help. I am doing a giveaway on baby clothes in size preemie and I plan to do it as often as my child grows out of her clothes.

Raising a child and having one is very expensive but it’s also important to have the basic necessities to make it easier on your life.

The giveaway is opened to US residents only and two winners will be selected. Just follow any one of these social platforms to be considered. Winner will be tagged on our social media platform. Ends June 7th

Sip + See Garden Party

 

We had our big celebration to welcome our daughter Madison Star with Sip & See party! The theme was a Garden Party which was very fun and exciting! I made sure all the flowers were fresh and perfect on the tables for a glam touch. We had customized matching sunflower headbands from Jilly Headbands on Etsy. It was so nice to have a perfect look with my little one. My dress was a budget find from Venus. I wanted something white and of course fitted since I was able to show off my body again. It was a pleasant party I was happy with it and of course to celebrate with family and friends.

Motherhood is definitely a great way to bring people together and celebrate, I look forward to many more memories. I think I am going to be the mom that posts and does everything for my daughter. That’s just so much love!!

Newborn Photo Shoot

I decided to do a newborn shoot because I wanted to capture my daughter’s precious moments. It turned out to be a great day for us. It was challenging to start with Madison Star crying a lot. But after sometime we were able to nail some amazing shots. Over all I am very happy with our photos and I look forward to doing more Photo shoots with her. Here is a snippet of some behind-the-scenes footage of our day. Along with some cute photos that I think you all will love. Don’t forget you can follow My daughter’s page below.
