Grooming Products by Clio

Hello Everyone!


* Disclaimer: This post contains PR Samples from Clio for review purposes. I want to thank Clio for sending these products. All opinions are 100% my own.

Grooming is an important part of my skincare routine. Today I wanted to share my thoughts about a few grooming products from Clio that I've been using for the past few weeks. How cute are these designs?!

My Thoughts 

This is such a great beauty tool, and it's travel friendly! My eyebrows have a natural arch, but this product helps me clean them up a bit. I also like using this product to trim up my sideburns. There are no knicks with this beauty tool. The only thing I noticed was a slight irritation when I trimmed my right side burn, but that was partly my fault since I put the device too close to my face.  This a beauty tool I highly reccomend to included in your beauty routine or regimen!

Hair Removal

Palmperfect Electric Shaver


Make a smooth move to clio’s fashion forward line of hair removal tools. from battery operated shavers to our bikini trimmers, and rechargeable shavers, you’ll get pain-free, professional results! best of all, our top rated, on-the-go grooming gear lets you do it all from the comfort of your own home.


Water resistant and convenient to use in the shower

My Thoughts

If you have sensitive skin or if you're tired of using razors that leave you with knicks, this is a razor you might want to try. This is an amazing razor if you have sensitive skin.

I love how you can use this razor wet or dry. I've used this razor several times and I haven't had any irritation on my skin and this razor removes hair well. I also like that I don't have to use shaving gel with this razor. Another plus is this razor is travel friendly and since this razor is water resistant, you can use it in the shower! I saw this razor in Walmart a few days ago, but I'll link the website so you find more locations to purchase these items. Guys, dont feel left out! This brand also provides products for men too!

Christmas Tree Decorations 2017

Hello Everyone!


I'm so excited to share today's post! What better way to start off December than to share photos of my decorated tree. On the countdown :) 24 days unil Christmas/My Birthday! To all the December babies, happy birthday!


The first pic of tree once I finished. This tree is 7.5 ft tall. The original plan was to start last weekend. I started decorating Wednesday night and I finished on Thursday afternoon.


This year more blue was added to the tree. I think blue and silver looks so pretty at Christmas time. 
I wanted a white faux fur tree skirt, but I think this silver sequenced tree skirt looks better with the theme.


I mentioned that last year I just put two bells for the tree topper. This year I went for a bow and bells.  I love how it turned out, but I had to really put in some time to get the topper how I wanted it look. The DIY tree topper was worth it :)


My mom loves Christmas decorating as much as I do so we usually decorate the tree together. This year she took on more of a supervisory role lol. One of my favorite Christmas memories as a child was helping my mom decorate the Christmas tree and drink hot chocolate.



Who else likes to look at lights on Christmas trees? 



I really love how the tree turned out this year.


Happy Holidays! Are you putting up a Christmas tree this year? I also wanted to thank you all for the kind words you left on my Projects with Pilar: Christmas Decor DIY's post!

Projects with Pilar: Christmas Decor DIY's

Hello Everyone!


Over the past month I've been making a few new things for Christmas and today I wanted show some of my latest creations.


If you remember last year I just used the bells for the tree topper. My original plan was to incorporate the bell into a bow.  I'm so happy I made that into a reality this year!


Bow and bell tree topper without flash. I had to make the bow larger since it was too small to be a topper for the tree. I forgot to take a picture, but I'll show the bow once the tree is finished. 


I had so much fun making this wreath. It's so festive and the colors match the ornaments etc for the Christmas tree!


Christmas door wreath without flash. 



This was the first project I worked on for the season. I originally got these materials for another project, but I ended up making a large candle box.


Have you started decorating or crafting for Christmas?
