Chicago

I recently went on a trip to Chicago with my mom and childhood best friend. It was kind of my senior trip. We explored the city and went to the Origami Owl National Convention! I didn't take very many pictures... but I did film the whole thing! You can check out my

Coconut Oil Cult

Yes, I have joined the cult of coconut oil users. At first, I was skeptical. I didn't believe that one product could be beneficial for you in so many ways.

These are my before and after shots.

On the left is a picture of me from June 8th, before I started a coconut oil face regimen. On the right is me 20 days later (with only mascara on). My nose still has some scarring and I do have a few spots left, but I feel like I have a whole new face. My face feels healthier, looks brighter, and my acne has cleared up. The biggest difference I have seen is in fading my acne scars and evening my complexion. 

Here's what I did: I washed my face twice a day with my usual products. Around mid-day, I would take off any makeup I had, apply coconut oil, and let it sit for 30 minutes before rinsing off with warm water and a wash-cloth. That's it.

I'm all for a quick remedy. I did have to be patient and consistent with it, but the results I have seen in less than 3 weeks is worth it to me, and worth sharing.
