Previously, I came to you a review of the Dior Prestige Crème. I had been waiting to do this review of the Prestige Serum because I wanted more time with it. I wanted to know how it worked on its own paired with a moisturizer from a different line, a different brand even. So here…

Keep these words on repeat
It is an affirmation that I saw years ago and has stuck with me: I give myself permission to do what is right for me. At this point I don’t even know who to attribute the quote to, but I’m thankful for the words that I now repeat to myself every day. I give myself…
