Here we go with Thursday Things to Love this week...beauty edition.
- Moroccan Miracle Oil for my hair - have y'all ever used this? If you haven't, you need to rush out today and buy some because it's AM-AZ-ING! I've had this bottle for about 3 1/2 years, and since you only need a little drop each time it's really lasted me. A little pricey - I think this bottle was $45, but like I said I've had it for a while. I don't use it everyday, but I 100% notice a difference in the smoothness of my hair when I do use it. My hair is super fine, and lately I've been experiencing lots of breakage - remember I told ya all about that? I highly recommend it. Plus, it has a really nice smell. But remember you only need a little bit, not even dime size amount. If you have fine/oily hair like I do, then using more than you need will make you look like you didn't shower.
- Olay - Night of Olay Firming Cream - My aunt swears by this stuff, and even though it's not the super expensive brand, I have to believe it's working for her because she's 43 and looks fabulous. I haven't been using it long enough yet to see results, but I definitely don't want my age to ever show in my face so I took my aunt's advice and got some. I have a hard time remembering to dab the cream vs. smear it, but I'm sure the dabbing pays off. Do you use any night creams? I'm really starting to get into a preventative beauty regimen so I need advice!
- Estee Lauder - Idealist Skin Refresher. I love love love this product - cannot say enough good things about it. Again, my age conscious aunt got me turned onto this maybe 4-5 years ago. Like my hair, my face tends to get oily (especially in the T-zone) so I'm constantly searching for a moisturizer that is oil-free and keeps me looking fresh all day without too many powder touch ups. BINGO - found it here! Again, it's pricey but well worth it. It doesn't take much for your entire face/neck area, and it leave my face feeling smooth and silky but never greasy.
- Lastly, not beauty related at all, but I'm so excited that the temperature is supposed to get to actual winter norms this weekend! We are hoping to make a quick trip to NC to go snowboarding hopefully Saturday. Plus, Skye is all off all weekend - our first weekend off together in 3 weeks- so we are doing our Valentine's day celebrations over the weekend.
So tell me about your daily/nightly preventative beauty routines. I want to know what works for you and what doesn't, and what products you absolutely couldn't live without.

Sorry you've been so busy! Work cramps my blogging style as well. Love your products! I have a ton of great Laura Mercier eye cream products that just sit there and I look at them before I go to bed. Then I don't use them.. .And I wake up every day and complain about my eye wrinkles...
I totally use the Oil of Olay night firming cream! it's amazing for a cheap brand. i slather that baby on good. eye cream is also key! my mom told me to start using it when I turned 20, and I've been using it every since! the oil of olay brand works well :)
I love morrocan oil and use it all the time. I have fine curly hair and it does just the trip. Found your blog through First Home Dreams. Looks great!
I love my Clarisonic Mia. I got it for my birthday in December and it has become a very important part of my routine!
My brother suggested I might like this website. He was totally right. This post actually made my day. You cann't imagine simply how much time I had spent for this information! Thanks!

I LOVE Estee Lauder Idealist Pore minimizer too. I have the same t-zone problem. I also started using the night correcting serum a few months ago and LOVE it, it's my miracle drug.
