just got to the salon right now here are my current nails i really love this set i love this color i got them for cabo it's like a turquoise teal color and i got tips to make them longer but here's the inspo pick that i'm going to show my nail tech my girl is really good i've been going to her for like years now so i already know she's going to pull through but it's like a light pink french tip i think there's like a heart on the ring finger and i'm also getting a pedicure i'll probably just get white because that's always what i do but yeah time to fix these bad boys [Music] you came in at the right you time changed my life i am obsessed okay so here they are pink french tips almond shape and then the little heart on the ring finger and then for my toes i actually ended up getting the same pink color i didn't get white but i love them nails done okay next we're gonna run a few errands so i'm gonna go to sephora and target and pick up a few things i just ran out of felix products so i need to go get some new ones [Music] i got the big size of brazilian bum cream from sol de janeiro because this is my favorite lotion it smells so good my niece lip glowy balm in berry this is one of my favorite lip balms and i ran out so i tried to get another one a little eyeliner from sephora collection for my mom and then i got two products that i've never tried before but i've seen them like all over social media first one is the dior lip oil i've been wanting this for the longest time but every time i go to sephora it's always sold out so i got the color rosewood and i can't wait to try this and then last i got the charlotte tilbury highlight wand it's the blush one in pinkgasm next up is target [Music] [Music] target haul i found this mini travel razor it's so freaking cute and then it comes with a case this is like my new favorite thing i also got some travel containers just in case i need to move some of my skincare or hair care products in here neutrogena makeup wipes and then my favorite mascaras i've been running out so these are the maybelline sky high and then lash sensational okay and then lastly i just got gum just to get yum i don't know and that's it [Music] all right i am back home and next step is to shower and do a pamper routine so this is where i'm going to shave exfoliate you know all of that i've been using the same products for a while now so i'm going to hop into the shower first and do all of that and then i'll talk about the product see you guys after my shower all right shower is complete and i put on a face mask if you can tell this is the glossier detoxifying green mask i think that's what it's called but while i let this sit on my face i just wanted to talk about some of my favorite self-care products lately just things that i've been loving and like have been helping me and i've seen progress first we have olaflex the products that i use are the shampoo and conditioner and the bond smoother and bond oil i've been using these three products for the past few months and then just got this one like a month or two ago but i have been loving them so much i've definitely seen progress with my hair before olaplex my hair was like super frizzy and like once i let it dry i would have to do it and like put heat on it every single day because i didn't like how it was like curly and stuff but after using old flex my hair is like so much smoother and it's been really helping especially since i dyed my hair back in like january since i got highlights so definitely recommend next are these products from tree hut this is the exfoliator and this is the shave oil these are in the scent coconut lime but i swear every scent that they have smells so freaking good i don't use these products every single day in the shower but when i have to like shave and exfoliate that's when i pull these out so i start with this one go in with a razor and then after i do that i'll go in with the exfoliator but i just love these products because the scent is amazing it makes my body feel really soft and i love how they go together and then last product i want to talk about is the souls asian arrow brazilian bubble cream you guys saw this earlier in the video because i got a bigger size but this lotion is my holy grail i just love how it smells and i will never get sick of it it's just so good so yeah those are some of my products i recommend i'm gonna let this dry a little more and then i'll wash it off okay last thing i'm gonna do today is create my packing list so every time i go on a trip i always make like a note on my phone or like type it out on my laptop just all the things that i want to bring so that i don't forget it and i usually do these four categories so i'll do bags clothes bathroom and electronics so i'm gonna go ahead and type it out on my laptop all right i just finished my packing list and you guys will see all the stuff that i'm packing later in this video but this list is just for me to like have an idea of what i want to bring in like a mental note so that i can like check things off as i pack them but that is everything that i'm doing for today so i'll see you guys later hello guys it's now the next day and it's time to pack so i actually laid out everything that was on my packing list and just things i think i want to bring but now it's time for me to show you guys what i laid out and where it's from starting with clothes i have no clue if i'm under packing if i'm over packing a low-key looks like a lot but again we will be in hawaii for eight days so i feel like i'm packing hopefully just the right amount but anyway let's begin first i'm packing this crewneck because it says hawaii so i think it's perfect next we have this romper so i actually bought this a few months
