BEAUTY: 5 Facial Oils

Hello everyone! Kelsey from Kelsey Nicole here again. Winter seems to be officially here and weather in Maryland has been awfully cold the last few days. One of my favorite things to do when I get home from running around in the cold all day, besides putting on warm pajamas, is wash my face and put on facial oil. Facial oil is quickly absorbed and provides numerous benefits to dry skin. Here are a few of my favorites:

Aurelia Probiotic Skincare Cell Repair Night Oil | Josie Maran 100% Pure Argan Oil | Boscia Tsubaki Beauty Oil | Fresh Seaberry Moisturizing Face Oil | Caudalie Divine Oil

Beauty: Bobbi Brown

Hi readers! Kelsey from Kelsey Nicole here. I spent a good amount of time browsing the Nordstrom beauty department on my Nordstrom app this past rainy weekend and I couldn't help but notice the gorgeous new palettes available. Some are simply eye palettes while some have a little blush and/or lip gloss thrown in. Either way, I want them all. Here are a few available now:

 Have you tried any of these palettes yet??

BEAUTY: The Bordeaux Lip

Hello! Kelsey from Kelsey Nicole here today. Fall is my favorite time of year for many reasons, one being that it is the perfect time to make a statement. Cooler weather allows you to wear trendy fashion items like plaid, fur, and leather, preferably not all at once. It also allows you to experiment more with makeup trends. One that I am particularly excited to try is the bordeaux lip. While a little intimidating, I think it would incredible with a simple eye and sleek ponytail. And perhaps some fur.

Here are a few bordeaux lip options:

Trish McEvoy Lip Color in Jolie | Bite Beauty Cashmere Lip Cream in Bordeaux | Too Faced La Creme in Divine Wine | Dior Addict Extreme Lipstick in Black Tie | Smashbox Be Legendary Lipstick in Plum Scene | NARS Satin Lip Pencil in Palais Royal

Hi MADE BY GIRL readers! It's Kelsey here from Kelsey Nicole, welcome back from your long Labor Day wknd! Now that summer is coming to an end and we are on our way to fall, it is time to repair the damage the sun and chlorine may have caused to our hair. One way to repair damaged hair is with a rich hair mask. I am a fan of using coconut oil on my hair, but I sometimes like to splurge on something a little more fun. Here are a few I have my eye on:
