You know that feeling when you’ve been obsessed with something for as long as you can remember, but for whatever reason, it just never seemed like the right time to start? That was me with beauty. I knew I wanted to create a space dedicated to all things beauty—because let’s be honest, who isn’t obsessed with beauty products? But for me, beauty is so much more than lipstick and skincare. It’s life itself. It’s in the way you feel, the way you move through the world, and, yes, the way you express yourself through your look.

More Than Just Mascara: The Beauty Trials Breakdown

This journey led me to My Beauty Trials. Here, I’ll be sharing my very real (and sometimes messy) trials in the beauty world. From product reviews to fashion must-haves, skincare fails, and everything in between. Because let’s face it: beauty isn’t perfect—and neither are we. But that’s what makes the journey so interesting, right?

Here’s what you can expect when you join me on this adventure (it’s more fun than it sounds, I promise):

Beauty Products

We all know the cosmetic industry is a billion-dollar business, and, full disclosure, I’ve probably contributed a significant portion of that. From skincare serums to the perfect highlighter, I’ll be sharing my honest, no-holds-barred reviews of what worked, what didn’t, and why you absolutely need that new mascara that just hit the market. And no, there won’t be any filters, no trick lighting—just the real deal.

Fashion

Beauty and fashion go hand in hand, right? I mean, how can you love a killer beauty routine and not want the perfect outfit to match? Here, I’ll share my favorite trends, wardrobe staples, and, of course, my outfit obsessions that I can’t stop wearing. Because style should never be boring—and your wardrobe should feel as fun as you are.

Travel

When I’m not playing with makeup or hunting for the perfect pair of jeans, you can probably find me planning my next getaway. Travel is a huge part of my life, and I’ll be sharing the places that inspire me, the cities that steal my heart, and the travel essentials I can’t live without.

Wellness

Because beauty isn’t just skin deep, right? I’m a firm believer in taking care of yourself inside and out, and I’ll be sharing tips on staying healthy, feeling good, and loving the skin you’re in. Whether it’s fitness, wellness, or just finding balance in a chaotic world, I’ve got you covered.

Pregnancy & Motherhood

And, of course, a chapter I’ve recently embarked on: pregnancy and motherhood. Spoiler alert: It’s nothing like the movies. But it’s full of surprises, challenges, and moments of pure magic. Whether it’s baby products, self-care as a mom-to-be, or simply navigating the wild ride of motherhood, I’ll be sharing it all—because we could all use a little support, a few laughs, and maybe a good skincare tip or two.

So, grab a cup of tea/coffee (or wine, no judgment here), and let’s do this! Whether you’re here for the beauty tips, the fashion inspiration, or just a little bit of life advice with a side of humor, I’m so glad you’re here. Let’s explore this beautiful, messy, fabulous thing called life, together.

A Special Thank You

To my husband—thank you for your unwavering support, for pushing me to take the leap, and for believing in me long before I believed in myself. To my daughter, who is my heart, my light, and the reason I keep moving forward with this blog—you are my drive. And to my dear friends Sam and Nicole, who saw this dream for me over ten years ago—thank you for always cheering me on, even before I was ready.
