Introduction to my blog

This is my first blog yay! I thought I would fill my readers in on what to expect from my blog.

I am going to be writing as often as possible. Giving beauty and style tips, I love doing makeup and hair and I love styling outfits. Sharing my life as a mommy and a wife. And giving craft and recipe tutorials.

I titled my blog Simply Summer because I do things the simple way, makeup, crafts and recipes. I don't believe you should spend a fortune to make crafts, I use things that are very inexpensive and things that you already have at home. As far as recipes, most family's like mine, are on a budget. I don't use crazy ingredients that cost a fortune to make. And all my recipes are kid and husband approved. My beauty and style tips are all mom friendly because like all moms we don't have a lot of time to spend on getting ready.

All my style and beauty tips apply for all women and are current up to date.

Happy Reading!

Bare Minerals Beauty and the Beach Review

Last week I cashed in my beauty points on Sephora.com for this lovely sample set by bare minerals. The set is called Beauty and the Beach and it includes 5 pieces for a summer look. The set included marvelous moxie lip gloss in party starter, ready bronzer in the skinny dip, bare minerals ready blush in the natural high, all over face color in pure radiance and a sample of their lash domination mascara . So here is my take on the set: Here it is ladies! Marvelous Moxie lipgloss in Party Starter- this is a darker, coral and peach color. It was very sticky but it lasted for a few hours. It matched the blush perfectly. Ready Blush in The Natural High : This blush is a nice peachy pink color, it looks really shimmery in the package but looks more matte when applied. I loved that the color matched the gloss! Ready Bronzer in The Skinny Dip- I used this to contour and sculpt my face and it turned out beautiful. It matched my skin tone very nicely. Its very similar to t

Best Fragrances of 2017

I am such a Perfume junkie. I change fragrances with clothes, moods, seasons and events. I've always felt like Perfume is a luxury that women should spoil their selves with. I love giving perfumes to my friends, family, co-workers, neighbors(you get the picture). And my favorite gift is always perfume(hint-hint)! Every department store visit, I head to the fragrance counter before I check out anything else to see what's new(Yes fragrance girl, you can give me a spritz). Ok, now that you get the idea of how deep my relationship with perfume is. 2017 has been a great year for the fragrance industry. I thought long and hard and I really can't remember trying a scent that I didn't like. From new releases from beloved favorite brands, Gucci Bloom, Victor & Rolf Magic, Tom Ford Oud Minerale to new fragrences from Diptyque Eau des Sens, Jo Malone London Jade Leaf Tea Cologne, and Atelier Cologne Café Tuberosa. It was a struggle to find my top 5 favorite scent
