Best of Beauty: 2017

We're already about a month into the new year, and I've been thinking a lot about all the new products I tested and tried in 2017. While I have some long-time favorites that I continue to re-purchase again and again, I'm always on the hunt for the next best thing when it comes to beauty products. Since I'm picky about what I choose to splurge on (especially without knowing if I'll even like it!), I typically trial new products by purchasing travel sizes, cashing in my Sephora points for a sample size, or even just buying a knock-off drugstore version for a cheaper price. And again, since I'm picky, it takes a lot to WOW me. So most of the time, I'm not super impressed by the hottest new beauty product (I'm thinking I should do a post about what popular items I wouldn't purchase again?), but every now and then I do find some winners! Today I'm sharing five of the best beauty products I tried in 2017, that I definitely plan to purchase again and again.

A Look Back at 2017

Happy new year, friends! 2017 was an amazing year for me, filled with tons of new experiences and exciting adventures, and I'm forever grateful. Before jumping into 2018 with my long list of goals and resolutions, I felt the need to pause and look back on all the wonderful things the past year had to offer and share my favorite moments of 2017. I also wanted to take a minute to thank you all for your love and support. I started this blog on a whim, as something to do in my spare time. I never really planned on sharing it with anyone and even when I did, I certainly never thought anyone would read it. So, thank you. Thank you for reading, following, and supporting this blog, and in turn supporting me. You guys are awesome and I wish you nothing but the best in 2018!
