Just in! The new Glow OH Dark Spot Toner at the Olehenriksen Spa ✨
Guys, this toner is essential to your skincare routine. I’ve been using it since before it came out about a week ago and I must say I definitely see a difference in my skin.

This toner not only balances my skin’s PH balance but while doing so is also exfoliating my skin and refining the texture with a high potency of AHA’s (Alpha Hydroxy Acids), a lemon enzyme, as well as clarifying my skin with Witch Hazel.
This toner is THE toner to have in your skincare haul.


Alpha Hydroxy Acids are staple chemical exfoliants that are water soluble and help to target fine lines and wrinkles and to even skin tone and texture. They help to remove the superficial layer of skin to remove dark spots over time and breath in new skin life. This ingredient is what makes this toner so wonderful.

Accompanied with a lemon enzyme which is a fruit acid that will help to exfoliate the superficial layer of skin as well and break down the keratin protein which will result in smoother skin and ultimately will help protect the skin against free radicals.
Lastly, we have a powerful Witch Hazel ingredient that will help to prevent bacteria from entering the pores, soothe the akin and reduce signs of inflammation.

I highly recommend this toner to each and every one of you, especially since it works for all skin types and please let me know what you think during your experience.

I will be posting before and after photos soon 🙌🏽💆🏽‍♀️

Happy Thursday my loves ❤️
Today I bring you a little message about friendship... this girl right here has been my best friend for over 10 years now.
We met waaay back in 10th grade when going out for the cheer squad and ever since then haven’t truly let one another go.

There’s always been a love between us two but many times during our growing pains we fought and we fought ALOT ... many people thought it best to be done with one another but we knew we weren’t done. It’s funny because I feel like all of those fights just helped us to understand each other even better and create an even stronger relationship.

She and I have many differences and we resisted against the lesson and growth those differences tried to bring to us for so long but overall held on because I do believe on some deeper level, a level our younger counterparts were to naive to realize; we knew we’d be in each others lives for the long run.

Here we are now 26, going on 27 with our goals and dreams in hand and ready to come into fruition. Our conversations have changed from cheer practicing and what party are we going to on the weekend to what do you want your wedding to look like and we have to go to lamaze classes together when we’re pregnant soon. We’re still those young tots but much, much wiser and truly ourselves.


The message for today is when you know you’ve found a friend who you feel is family and have gone through so much but always come out in support of each other at the end, you don’t want to give up on them but rather learn to adjust and grow with each other. Listen to your intuition and know who your friends are, even if they challenge you because all in all they are helping you to get where you need to be in your life. ✨
The Andrea and Shall chronicles continue 👭

When I came across these words of remembrance and inspiration I just thought about the last year and how much has happened and changed in my life for the better.

The list is long and the accomplishments are great and the growth... wow the growth, I never thought I’d get here but here I stand

Just never give up on yourselves or you’ll never come to know the better parts of you ✨

I always like to start my day off with something warm to drink, especially during this winter season! So today I concocted up a nice cup of my own Tumeric Latte ☕️

TUMERIC is such an essential ingredient to intake into your body as well as to make apart of your daily lifestyle.

The health Benefits are many.
Tumeric is a very powerful antioxidant which is beneficial to keeping your skin protected against free radicals in the environment that will try to speed up the aging process by damaging your skin cells.

TUMERIC is an anti-inflammatory and anti-microbial which will help to relieve pain and boosts your immunity.

TUMERIC has an active compound called Cucumin which gives this ingredient its golden color can also help to prevent cancer and Alzheimer’s disease.

Like I said the benefits are many ✨ when mixed with other such ingredients like Black Pepper, Ginger, Cinnamon, & Honey you are receiving healthy benefits such as Brain and Memory improvement, strong digestive system, lower blood sugar levels, and even a better mood!


This Tumeric Latte is the stuff, especially when sippin looking at a view like this. Stay warm and healthy out there.
Happy Holidays ❄️🎄🎁

Mask it!✨

Sunday’s are perfect for putting on a face mask. Right before the new week begins it is essential to get your mind AND your skin right for the many days of opportunity ahead


Masks REALLY assist in helping the skin in replenishing moisture, balancing skin tone and texture, calming, removing excess sebum (oil), improving the appearance of pore size, and pulling out any dirt, bacteria, and impurities


There are so many different kinds of masks offered to us, be it a Clay mask, Gel mask, Exfoliating mask, or a Hydrating treatment mask. All of them targeting a variety of skin concerns

Start the week off right! and mask it up on a Sunday night. Grab your favorite glass of wine 🍷 or a big glass of cucumber water (after the long weekend), put on your favorite show and mask it all away.
Prepared and ready for the new week 💪🏽🙏🏽❤️

“Water does not resist. Water flows. When you plunge your hand into it, all you feel is a caress. Water is not a solid wall, it will not stop you. But water always goes where it wants to go, and nothing in the end can stand against it. Water is patient. Dripping water wears away a stone. Remember that, my child. Remember you are half water. If you can’t go through an obstacle, go around it. Water does.”

―Margaret Atwood, The Penelopiad

Happy Saturday loves, I wish you all best... I know individually and together we can be a force of nature, ready to take on the next challenge with a flow and a grace ✨🙏🏽

Life is full of choices... so they say but from my understanding and own life experiences I come to know that there are two staple ones.

You can either stand behind the camera, watch as others live their lives to their fullest and capture it all while you stand on the side lines wondering when it will be your turn OR you can make the choice to be in the shot, in the scene... creating the reality you’ve dreamt of. All by just admiring how far you’ve come and congratulating all the accomplishments you have come to know and will soon know.

For a long time I stood behind that camera... feeling sad, confused, and unworthy but in the last 5 years I have grown to become comfortable in my spotlight and with that, I have gravitated more of that energy into my space.

This is just a picture that was taken of me by a good friend and well I thought it captured the message I’m trying to convey to all of you.

Be the focus through someone else’s lens but most importantly your own... the way you see yourself and the life you are yearning for ✨💃🏽
