Beauty and Hair Products Haul! | Target

Hey everyone! As I began to start my new blog post I realized that my "Goodbye Switzerland" post that was meant to be up on my blog a week ago was still in draft form - oops! So, be sure to continue scrolling after this haul to see a reflection/summary of my time in Switzerland.

Anyways, I am officially back in Lala land and it feels so great to be home, although it takes some adjusting to after living in a European lifestyle/place for two years. We arrived last night so I'm currently battling that annoying thing called jet lag but luckily I get on the correct time pretty quickly.

We had only been back in the states for one night yet today early in the morning we were all in need of a huge Target shop to pick up essentials and some room decor. I grabbed a ton of new beauty and hair supplies that I'm really excited to try and thought I would share them with you. They were all purchased from Target and range from makeup to skin care to shampoos/conditioners. In addition, I will be filming a huge summer haul later this month showing you all the clothes and random items I got in London and now Los Angeles so look forward to that at the end of this month!

Makeup Products
I purchased several makeup products that are very basic and simple for the summertime and basically an all-year round, light look. I won't go into detail into each of the products since I think they are pretty self-explanatory but overall I got: a nude eyeshadow palette, under-eye powder, mascara, brow liner, and brow gel.

Hair Accessories / Products
I picked up this new hair straightener because it was labeled as a non-frizz straightener which is really important for me since I have naturally frizzy hair - especially in the summer when it gets hot and humid! Also, the straightener is infused with natural argan oil to protect your hair from the heat.

Next, I got the 'Not Your Mother's' hair care set. I have been wanting to try these for so long and I finally picked them up. They are all made with natural ingredients which is great for your hair and promotes healthy and longer hair. 

The last hair care product that I bought was this frizz ease serum that you apply after washing your hair to aid in defraying your hair once it dries. As I mentioned above I have been struggling with frizzy hair so I'm hoping this will do the job!

Skin Care
First, I have this daily moisturizing lotion which works so well in hydrating your skin and it's also very natural and unscented. This lotion is also great as an 'after sun' cream to lock in your tan and make your tan more lasting and prominent.

Then, I got this facial mask in a bottle because I love face masks in the summer to clean and exfoliate my skin. It is in the 'flavor' of dead sea mud mask. 

Lastly, I decided to buy oil absorbing sheets because I think they will be perfect for the beach to keep my skin feeling refreshed and oil-free!

Shower Items

I love this EOS shave cream which is why I got another one in the scent of vanilla bliss because it makes your legs so soft and provides a smoother and deeper shave. 

Thanks for reading this blog post and I hope some of you try out these products this summer and let me know if you do. Also, I just wanted to give you an overview of my blogging schedule for the summer. Basically, I am hoping to post two times a week, maybe more if I have a lot of time but this could vary from week to week since I just moved and this summer will be really busy and crazy as we begin adjusting back into our packed schedules. To give you an idea/sneak peek of some of my summer posts are: room/bathroom tours, clothing and beauty hauls, OOTW's, my swimsuit collection, what's in my beach bag, summer stretches, healthy food recipes and so much more! I can't wait for my posts this summer and I hope you all will follow along with Eat Sweat Style during the holidays. See you soon xxx

May Favorites 2015!

Hey everyone! This past week proved to be much crazier than I imagined, so as you can probably tell I did not post my 'All-white Fashion looks'. As a result, I have decided to save that post for the summer when I have all day long to take pictures and edit. Anyways, today I finally have another monthly favorites post and I haven't done one of these in so long so I'm super excited to share my favorites of May with you.

Fashion Favorites
My first fashion favorite of this month are t-shirt dresses! I am super obsessed with t-shirt dresses because they are literally the most comfortable clothing item and are light for warm, sunny days. They're also perfect for me because it only takes me two minutes to put an outfit together with t-shirt dresses and they pair nicely with any shoe.

Next, I have my peplum leather jacket from Zara. If you don't have a leather jacket I suggest you go buy one ASAP because they are a great compliment to any outfit pairing and is the ideal jacket for May weather. They also instantly make your look more fancy or casual in the context of your outfit. Lastly, I have been loving this leather jacket because it is a lot more feminine than other leather jackets I've had because usually they look oversized on me so I love that the peplum adds a more soft touch.

My last fashion favorite are low-top, white Converse. I chose these converse because I just recently got them and haven't been able to stop wearing them. They go great with every single outfit and I love how simple they look. Another fashion must that I think everyone needs in their closet for casual days out.

Beauty Favorites
My first beauty favorite is EOS shaving cream! This shaving cream is so soft and makes your legs silkier longer after shaving. In addition, it also smells great and can be used with wet or dry legs. The only downside to this product is that it doesn't show very much on your legs; which may not be much of a problem for some but personally I prefer when you can see the shaving cream and then you know where you've already shaven.

Next, I have been really enjoying this mascara and eyelash/eyebrow brush. The mascara gives your eyelashes a lot of volume and curve and leaves them clump-free! But, when clumps sometimes do occur I like to use this eyelash brush to even out the mascara. However, I read an article the other day about how clumpy mascara is coming into style which I hope is not true...

Accessory Favorites
For accessories, I have been using my neoprene Triangl bag constantly this month when I go to the lake or pool with my friends. I have always struggled with where to put my wet swimsuits since I don't want to get other items wet so this bag is great to store anything that got wet and it won't make the bag wet. It's also such a fun and vibrant color which is perfect for the summer and the bag that they send you matches your swimsuit color which I find so awesome.

Then, I have been wearing a lot more earrings lately, especially simple silver ones like these. I think that earrings with a ponytail is a must and completes any outfit!

Those are all of my favorites from May! I can't believe tomorrow is June - ahh, it's about to get real crazy over here for me and soon I will back in Los Angeles. Anyways, till next time xxx

Spring OOTW | 3 Variations (Pants, Shorts + Dress)

Hey everyone! Today I will be sharing with you a spring OOTW post to give you some fashion inspiration for the spring season. It has been very warm here so the outfits will be more fitted for warmer weather; however you can add layers and jackets to all of these to keep you warm. Also, it is not a usual OOTW because I am only sharing three outfits...this is because I wanted to do a variation of outfits to fit every personal style. Therefore, there is a look with a dress, a casual outfit in shorts, and another outfit in long pants. Lastly, one of my best friends helped to take pictures for this blog post and we shot another fashion post over on her blog, which you should definitely go check out: rufflesandberries.blogspot.ch  .
