Kerin's Top Ten: Skincare Products
Hello World! I just want to start my saying I am nowhere near an expert on skincare. With that being said, here's my top ten skincare products (in no particular order) that I have used, so it is a very limited sample.
I also want to say that I have oily-combination, acne prone skin, so the products I picked are catered to those needs.

I loved this moisturizer! It's really hydrating and helps with skin discoloration and acne scars. See my full review of it here!

Sunday Riley Tidal Review
Hello World! Here's my review of the Sunday Riley Tidal Brightening Enzyme Water!
So, I've been using this moisturizer for a couple of weeks now, and I really like it. It claims to hydrate and replenish skin and help with uneven skin tones, and it is as good as it claims. When I first applied it, I found that it was instantly moisturizing and very hydrating on my skin, without being oily. It can even be worn on top of your makeup, if you notice you need a little extra moisture. I like to apply it at night, so it can seep into my skin overnight, and again after I wash my face in the morning. I have also noticed that it has helped to visibly reduce my dark marks, so I will definitely continue using it!
Get it here!

Life Update: 04.25.17
Hello World!
So I want to first start by apologizing for not posting on Saturday. I could lie and say I was doing something important, but the truth is I literally spent all weekend watching Boy Meets World (I need help).
Playoffs Updates: The Warriors swept! Go DubNation!!!
The Pacers got swept. :( Rockets looking to close out the Thunder tonight! Memphis surprisingly tied up the series with San Antonio, but I still think the Spurs are going to win. Griffin is out, so I think the Jazz might be able to win the series, but it doesn't really matter who wins that series, because they get the Warriors next. Like Dame Dolla said last night, if you ever want to get out the West, you have to go through the Warriors.

Kerin's Top Ten: How to be HUMBLE. (lesson from K-Dot)
Hello World!
So this week, I have been pretty obsessed with Kendrick's Lamar's new album DAMN., and I thought I'd share with you something I've learned from the proclaimed rap savior. I think it's really fitting that the first single released from the album was HUMBLE., because besides that song, the entire album is filled with verses of K-Dot explaining to us how one acts humble, which it such an appropriate lesson because people today are so self-absorbed and full of themselves, especially in the rap game. So it is refreshing to see a rapper who is a little more modest. So anyway, here are my top ten lines from DAMN. of Kendrick teaching us how to be HUMBLE.

1. I just win again, then win again like Wimbledon, I serve
Yeah, that's him again, the sound that engine in is like a bird
You see fireworks and Corvette tire skrrt the boulevard
Here Kendrick gives a shout out to some other Compton natives, Venus and Serena Williams, who have won a modest 17 trophies at Wimbledon, and so to compare himself to them it's like saying 'I win, but not much'. He's being modest clearly, because he has 7 Grammys. Then to further show his humility, he describes the modest car he drives - a simple corvette with a turbo engine (bird sound) and custom exhaust pipes (fireworks).

Life Update: Happy Playoffs!
Hello World! Happy NBA Playoff Season! #DUBnation #StrengthinNumbers
I'm so excited the playoffs started this weekend! It's my favorite part of the year - it's like a holiday season for me. And I think the season started off well withe the Pacers - Cavs game, which was really close, but the Pacers couldn't close it out. (PG said he has to be the one to take the last shot!) I am excited to see what happens, but I predict it will be Golden State and Cleveland coming out the west and east respectively for another Finals rematch.
So, in my last update, I said was thinking about taking up one of the other fellows offer to ride together to New Orleans, and I did end up contacting her, and we're going to iron out the details together later.
Sorry this post is so short, but honestly I don't have that much to update on. But if you haven't already you should listen to K-Dot's DAMN. It's no I Decided, but it's pretty great!
Au Revoir!
~Kerin
P.S. My left stroke just went viral...

Why Am I a Warriors Fan?
Hello World!
With the NBA season coming to an end 😢 and the playoffs about to begin 😃, lets talk about the best team in the league, my favorite, the Golden State Warriors. Sure this season wasn't as great as last year, but they were playing against their own greatness. By normal standards, they still had a great year. Besides this year was different, because they lost to that team in Ohio which will remain unnamed, so they weren't focusing on 73 wins. This year the focus was always on the championship. Today, I thought I'd share how I became a Warriors fan.

Nars Soft Matte Complete Concealer Review
Hello World!
A few weeks ago, I treated myself to the new Nars Soft Matte Complete Concealer in the shade Biscuit, and I have to say, it has quickly become a staple in my makeup routine. As a long-time fan of the Nars Creamy Radiant concealer, I was pleasantly surprised by how much I prefer this new formula. The coverage is truly full and flawless, effortlessly hiding my dark circles without creasing throughout the day. Even when I forget to set it with powder, it stays in place and keeps me looking fresh.

Life Update: Who am I?
Hello World!
So Tuesdays, I plan to give a little up date on what's going in my life, but since this is the first Tuesday, I can't really give an update, so I thought I would just start with sharing a little bit about who I am.
So first thing first, my name is technically Erin, but ask anyone who doesn't know me, it's Kerin, no matter if I tell them differently, so I've just decided to embrace the Kerin. I'm basically 30 years old (22 so...), and I'm in what I like to call a transition period in my life. I just transferred from the oh so wonderful University of Kentucky to my local Texas Southern University this semester, due to various unfortunate circumstances. And it has been a struggle, but that's life. And I have to be in school to please my parents, otherwise I would never be doing this college life. I'm currently studying Mathematics with a minor in Computer Science, and I plan to graduate ASAP!

'No Makeup' Everyday Look
Hello World! Here's a tutorial on how to get a 'no makeup' everyday makeup look. (Please excuse my crazy eyes, I don't know how to take normal photos 😛.)
Step 1: Wash and moisturize you face. Skin care is the most important step in any makeup routine. Starting with a clean moisturized face will help your makeup stay on longer.
Step 2: Prime! For this look, I used the Maybelline Master Prime by Face Studio - Blur +Illuminate.
Step 3: Color Correct! Color correcting is a lifesaving makeup trick. It allows you to use less foundation and concealer, while still covering up those little imperfections. I used the orange corrector from L.A. Girl HD Pro Concealer. I applied it to the dark spots on my face, and under my eyes, and blended it out with a sponge. Check it out here!
