Running a business takes a lot of work; especially one with a lot of creatives under one roof! At any given time, it seems like I’m constantly being pulled in a million different directions and learning how to manage my time efficiently is key. Between the blog, the channel, spending quality time with my family, running a business and then some, it’s been getting harder and harder to find time just for “me.” I’m a creative at heart, so it’s very important…
Natasha Denona Selfridges Exclusive Palette This is my first foray into Natasha Denona products and I think I started in the right place! Selfridges has plenty of pulling power for international brands and can insist on products that are UK exclusives to just them which means that beauty fans can get things that aren’t available anywhere else. Everything about this palette is impressive and it’s a long time since I’ve swatched and reviewed a palette of this size- 28 shades.…
“Tour” is a bit of a grand word to use, isn’t it, for what amounts to a quickish snoop around the room that I cook and eat in, but there we go. It’s a thing, online, apparently. House tour, office tour, tour of my makeup kit, bathroom cabinet tour, tour of my shoe closet. The internet is stuffed to the gills with tours of this and that, and who am I to ruin the fun with a sensible (more accurate) title? Quickish…
Ah you guys I feel like I have been major slacking on my blog! I know I have been MIA with announcing book club books and keeping up with series etc. Honestly I have been really busy with Barefoot Blonde Hair and just spending any other time with my kids. But I am trying to get back on track. I really notice a difference when I don’t schedule things out and use the different “tools” I normally use to stay…
Hey all! It’s Tieghan from Half Baked Harvest, I’m back today sharing a quick, easy, and healthy recipe that’s perfect for the summer days ahead. Funny enough this is a recipe that I’ve been making for my family for years now. It’s actually one of the first recipes I shared on HBH… and one of the most popular. Growing up, my dad would serve my brothers and I chicken and rice multiple times a week. No one complained, one because…

1. The Under 2 Minute Rule: This one I learned while listening to a podcast a while ago – I honestly can’t remember which podcast or who said it though! The Under 2 Minute Rule means that if a task will take less than 2 minutes to accomplish or cross of your list, you do it RIGHT then. So if it is sending a quick email, putting something away, scheduling something, whatever it is you can’t delay and have to…
It probably is not a surprise that I get a lot of questions about pregnancy safe skincare and makeup. After all, I have a full guide to pregnancy safe skin care, and I am constantly reviewing ingredient lists of products to let my readers know if products are safe to use during pregnancy or not. Recently there’s been a big increase in questions about pregnancy safe makeup, and what to worry about. Most of the emails and PMs about pregnancy…
Hey guys! It’s Hannah! I grew up in deep south Texas, so the concept of a ‘summer sweater’ was not only foreign to me but completely incomprehensible. How could you possibly want to wear a SWEATER during the SUMMER? It wasn’t until I moved to Los Angeles that I understood the need for one. With that said, sweaters are my favorite thing to wear. They’re super cozy and come on, who doesn’t get excited come sweater weather? But, guess what…
