3 Life Lessons I’ve Learned Since Turning 30

Ava and me on my birthday.

This past Saturday I celebrated my 33rd birthday. The weather was great, my husband showered me with goodies, my daughter was giddy with excitement and I feasted on one of my favorite dishes (seafood pasta). After such a wonderful day, I stopped to ponder three of the most significant things I've learned so far in my thirties. Thought I'd share them with you guys! 1. Some friendships aren't meant to last a lifetime. It took me until I was 30 years old to realize that all friends aren't supposed to be in my life forever. I had to learn how to recognize when a friendship's season has passed and move forward! 2. Worrying about what other people think of me is pretty pointless.

Get Brows that Wow!

Benefit-Cosmetics-Brow-Zings-30

This season it's all about thicker, bushier brows to frame our faces. That's right, step away from the wax and tweezers and embrace a fuller shape that will not only make you appear a younger, but the fresher look is also easy to achieve and maintain. Simply let your brows grow in and allow them to take their natural shape. Then, follow your natural arch and pluck wayward strays and fill in any sparse hairs with a brow pencil or powder for a polished finish. I usually opt for a pencil that's one shade lighter than my hair color and apply in quick, small strokes for a fuller brow. Check out a few of these must-have brow products:   Anastasia Beverly Hills Beauty Express for Brows and Eyes available here, $39.50 Benefit Cosmetics 'Brow Zings' available here, … Keep Reading
