The Duo I Can’t Live Without

  My Birthday Month Skincare Favorites – The Duo I Can’t Live Without It’s July—my birthday month! 🎉 And instead of just celebrating with cake and confetti (okay, maybe a little of that too), I want to share something even better: my secret weapon skincare duo that I personally use and love year-round. This month, I’m highlighting the two products that never leave my shelf: the Superfood Elixir and the Superfood Exfoliant & Masque by KPS Essentials. Why These Two? Because Glowing Skin Is My Favorite Gift These two products are power-packed with nutrients, and when used together, they deliver: Smooth, radiant skin A healthy glow that lasts for days Deep nourishment your skin can actually absorb and use They’re my go-to when my skin needs a pick-me-up, when I want to look amazing before an event, or when I just need to feel like my best self.

Your skins love language

  Your Skin’s Love Language (aka: Why It’s Freaking Out Again) Ever feel like your skin is trying to communicate with you—but instead of using words, it just breaks out, flakes off, or throws a full-on texture tantrum? Let me decode the messages for you. Here’s how your skin is probably showing love (and begging for it in return), based on the five love languages—with a skincare twist, of course. 💘 Love Language Skin Vibe Sass Level: Fully Engaged Acts of Service Dull, flaky, feeling personally victimized by your lack of exfoliation “I don’t need encouragement—I need enzyme action, hydration, and a mask that means business. Light a candle if you want, but get the job DONE.” Words of Affirmation Red, reactive, emotionally high-maintenance (but loveable) “If you whisper ‘you’re glowing’ while patting in a calming serum, I might calm down. But if you even look at me with a citrus scrub, I’m staging a revolt.” Quality Time Skin that disappears the moment you ...

  Your First Facial: A Judgment-Free Zone Where Napping Is Encouraged If you’ve never had a facial before, you might be wondering: What actually happens? Will it hurt?

☀️How to Not Look Like a Greasy Sunburnt Popsicle

What Your Skin Needs in Early Summer (aka: How to Not Look Like a Greasy Sunburnt Popsicle) The sundresses are out. The patio drinks are flowing. You’re officially entering your main character energy era—and your skin? She’s... confused. 🫠 Early summer isn’t just about switching to iced coffee and flip-flops—it’s when your skin needs a full seasonal vibe check. Because what worked in January definitely isn’t cutting it in 87° heat, relentless humidity, and back-to-back SPF slatherings. ☀️ Your Summer Skin: Beautiful, But Needy ✨ Sweat, SPF, and Pore Panic Sure, SPF is a non-negotiable queen—but combined with sweat, makeup, and “I forgot to double cleanse” nights? Your pores are begging for mercy. Congestion, dullness, and “Why does my face feel coated in glue?” vibes follow fast. ✨ Oily, but Still Dehydrated? Just because you’re shiny doesn’t mean you’re hydrated. (We’re looking at you, forehead.) Heat, wind, and UV exposure dehydrate your skin fast—leaving it tight, unpredictable,...

Not Your Average SPF: Luxe Protection for Glowing, Summer-Ready Skin

  Is Your Sunscreen Actually Doing Its Job? Why KPS SPF 30 Is My Go-To for Glowing, Protected Skin We all know sunscreen is important, but not all sunscreens are created equal . Many products on the market are filled with pore-clogging fillers, harsh chemicals, and ingredients that can irritate your skin or leave behind that dreaded white cast. So what’s the solution? Let me introduce you to my favorite SPF: KPS Essentials Hydrating Sunscreen with DermaNū Technology. Why SPF 30 Matters (and Why You Need It Daily) SPF 30 is considered the sweet spot for everyday use. It blocks about 97% of UVB rays, giving you strong protection without the heaviness of higher-SPF formulas that often contain more synthetic filters. And it’s not just for beach days! UV damage happens year-round (yes, even on cloudy days) It’s a must if you’re using active ingredients like Vitamin C or exfoliants It helps prevent hyperpigmentation, fine lines, and skin cancer Why I Recommend KPS SPF ...

Stressed Skin This Spring? Here's Why (And What to Do About It)

Spring Skin Got You in a Flare-Up Funk? Here's Why (And How to Fix It Without Losing It) Spring sunshine is cute and all, but if your skin is reacting like it’s personally offended by blooming flowers and warm breezes—you’re not imagining it. Breakouts in weird places? Check. Random redness and puffiness? Double check. Your face is basically throwing a seasonal tantrum, and here’s why. 🌸 Why Spring Messes With Your Skin So Hard ✨ Allergy Season = Chaos in Your Face Pollen, dust, and all the floating nonsense = inflammation city. Your sinuses are stressed, and your skin? She's not loving it either. Redness, bumps, and that weird itchy feeling? Yup—thank histamines for the skin freakout. ✨ Sinus Congestion = Puff Party in the Triangle Zone That stuffy feeling doesn’t just live in your nose—it lingers in your face. The triangle zone (nose, cheeks, chin) starts hoarding fluid, trapping toxins, and serving puff, congestion, and breakouts like it’s spring’s signature look. ✨ More ...
