It’s almost Thanksgiving (and Black Friday)…can you believe it? This year has flown by. It will be the holidays soon. As the weather turns colder and I get busier, I am trying to take care of myself (I have a cold now) and my skin and hair.
Below are my current faves. They include cool French skincare, affordable BB makeup and hair care to help thinning hair.
What are you using and loving now? Please leave a comment and let me know!
