24 Things I Manifested Before Turning 24

February 28, 2022

Because this post is going live on February 28th, the night before my 24th birthday, I wanted to reflect on my life so far! I came up with this idea of 24 things I manifested before turning 24 as a way to look back on everything I’ve accomplished so far.

Manifesting isn’t this crazy concept. It’s based along the principle of speaking things you want in life into existence. You have to focus on specific ideas and the universe will help guide you towards them. I think making room to dream about your future is so important in helping you actually want to work towards it. You’ll see some of these things are huge goals, and others are just small daily things that make my life so much better.

Wrap Up

As you can see, this list has all sorts of things on it. Whether you manifest, pray, or just set intentions they all do the same thing. Just focus so hard on what you want in your life and just let things take their course.

I am so grateful that I realized how powerful manifesting was and was able to have this list. Manifesting isn’t magic and you won’t over night be able to meet some goals. Living each day focusing on only what you want and letting go of things that don’t serve you will help you reach whatever you want.

I am so grateful to have built this community and am able to continue to share all my favorite things with you. Let me know in the comments if manifesting has worked for you!

What to Know Before Starting a Blog!

May 15, 2020

starting a blog

It’s absolutely wild to think that my first blog post ever was posted 1 year ago. I can’t believe that it’s my 1 year blog anniversary! I decided randomly one day to launch a blog and it has been the craziest year since. In honor of my first year as a blogger, I put together my list of 5 things you need to know before starting a blog.

1. Have a Plan

I started out my blog thinking I would just write some posts and upload them but I soon realized so much more goes into that. If I could give one piece of advice to a new blogger, I would absolutely say make yourself a schedule. Write on one day, take photos on another, and then plan for a day to upload and also post on social media to announce it. To gain traffic, you need take your time and a plan will help you stay on track.

2. Use Social Media

In the beginning of my blogging days, I only posted on Instagram to announce blog posts. Now, I have posts on Twitter, Facebook, Tumblr, and Pinterest as well. Social media is a great way drive traffic to your blog but utilize all of it. I focused so much on only one site that my numbers weren’t as high as they could be. Now I have over 100,000 monthly views on my Pinterest posts which drives direct traffic to my blog.

3. Invest in Your Blogging Platform

I had initially played around with Wix for hosting my blog. After just a little bit of research, I found out that even though it was somewhat cheaper, it would be hard to monetize. I then decided to pay for WordPress and I could not be happier. Not only does it help you easily monetize, but there are so many themes to choose from. I know when starting out you might want to do it on the cheaper side, but in the long run investing in your site will absolutely pay off.

4. Learn all you can about SEO

When I first started posting, I had no clue what SEO was. As I started to get further into blogging, I learned that “Search Engine Optimization” is the key to getting your blog post seen in places like Google. While you should always be creating authentic content, mixing in SEO rich phrases and terms will help you in the long run. I ended up installing a plugin that does most of the SEO work for me but since I am a Digital Audience major, I know there are plenty of online resources to teach you all about it.

5. Success Won’t Happen Over Night

After about a month or two of blogging, I hit a plateau in my viewers and site traffic. I honestly became really discouraged because I thought I was doing so well. One major thing to realize about blogging is that it does take time. You have to grow your readership and create connections. If you stay the course, you’ll be just like me, one year later with a lot of knowledge and viewers!

I hope these tips on what to know before starting a blog help you. I jumped right into blogging not knowing everything but I seriously wouldn’t have changed a thing. This was definitely a challenging year but it was so rewarding in the long run. I learned so much about building websites and website performance and loved every minute of it.

These tips on what to know before starting a blog are things that I know now would have absolutely helped me earlier on. Thank you so much for 1 year of readings my blogs and connecting with me! It has seriously been amazing writing and growing as a person. Here’s to another awesome year of blogging!

Sephora Collection Skin Care Review

May 31, 2019

It’s no surprise that I take my skin care very seriously. I have struggle with acne and oily skin for years until I really started to properly take care of my skin and cut out products with really harsh chemicals. When Sephora announced that they would be launching their own skin care products, I knew that I had to try them out. I decided to purchase their “The Essentials Kit” which costs $20 and comes with a clear skin gel, a hydrator and a mud mask. I also was really intrigued by their “Glow Peel Pads” which are $15 so I decided to pick them up as well.

I usually tend to stick to my usual skin care products but I did appreciate that this line of skin care is clean, affordable, and really easy to use. I applied the clear skin gel as directed and then washed it off. It left my skin feeling pretty clean but not dehydrated. Often with face washes, they are too abrasive and actually strip too much from your skin, leaving it dry and without the hydration in needs. For me, I felt my skin felt and looked great and wasn’t overly dry. I think that this product is definitely very gentle and for my combination skin, it did the job it needed to. I would rate it a 7/10.

Clear Skin Gel Cleanser
$10

For the hydrator, I was excited to try a product with hyaluronic acid that was so affordable. Basically, hyaluronic acid is used to help keep your skin hydrated and keep with water in it. I really liked the milky consistency of this product and I feel like it really helped me to stay hydrated. I liked applying this to my face and then going out for the day because it gave me the prettiest glow. After using this product, I definitely feel like my skin is smoother and the product does what the label suggests. This product is probably a 9/10 for me!

All Day Hydrator
$16

Moving on to the last product in the essentials kit, the mud mask is probably my favorite. I hate when products take forever to try and this was so quick and easy to use. When I initially put it on it seemed like a regular mask but once I washed it off I was so pleasantly surprised. This mask left my skin soft, glowing, and I could actually see some of the bumps on my face minimized. I have not stopped thinking about this product and have used it once a week since I got it. I wish I could use it every day because I just loved the results! 10/10

Purifying Mud Mask
$15

I was really intrigued by the glow peel pads because I know the good results that come with chemical peels for skin. Because my skin is so sensitive, I have always been apprehensive about the harsh chemicals but when I read that this peel pads have aloe vera, peptides from marine algae, and glycolic acid from sugar cane, I was sold. After reading the directions, it does state to try and stay out of the sun because it is such a deep exfoliant so I would not suggest using this every day in the summer. I have used it a few times and have felt that my skin does seem less dull and more glowy. As we head into the summer months though, I probably won’t use this as often just because I don’t want to have to worry too much about getting really bad burns on my face. These would be a 7/10 for me.

Glow Peel Pads
$15

Some products that I didn’t purchase but would like to would definitely be the eye cream, the moisturizer, and the glow serum. I didn’t purchase the entire line because I really only wanted to try out the essentials kit. Overall, this skincare line is great if you aren’t looking to spend a lot of money but want to take great care of your skin with clean products. Like seriously, just look at the prices! Everything is under $20. The packaging and the look of these products also just makes me want to keep them displayed on my bathroom shelf. I definitely will continue trying out these products because if they work as well as my super expensive ones, I might make the full switch when I run out!
