After looking around at all of the Labor Day sales, we went on a bit of a downward spiral. Meaning just a quick online window shopping situation turned into us thinking about everything new we needed in our wardrobes, apartment, etc. You get the picture. However, during that exploration we found a skincare brand we are really interested in trying soon! You may have already heard of it. The brand seems to have really blown up the past year and have a large Instagram following.

We may be a little late to the party, but we've recently discovered the joys of face masking (yes, it's a verb!) while facial rolling. And WOW. Is this the ultimate act of self-love or what? There's seriously nothing more relaxing than letting that roller glide across your face while you soak in all of the goodness a sheet mask has to offer. Plus, multi-tasking like this is doing double-duty for our skincare routine, and you won't hear us complaining about that! In case you'r

In the winter it is always hard to keep your skin replenished and avoid dryness. Especially since we both live in New York, which is such a cold climate during the winter months. We are constantly using hand cream and trying new products to incorporate into our makeup/skincare routine. We love this topic so much we even wrote about it last year, read last year's edition here. Last year Augusta bought me Glossier's priming moisturizer rich. And I absolutely loved it! I put it

Everyone needs to have a little me-time from time to time. It is okay to take care of yourself and have a full detox session. For us, we like to do that in form of trying out new beauty products. Recently Darby is trying out a new face wash routine from Paula's Choice and loving it. With the skin-care kit there was a free gift that you put on under your eyes before bed. I've been really loving that last step and thought it would be fun to research other under eye products. A

Water is good for your skin period. The key is to have a good skincare routine, sleep, and water. As annoying as that sounds, because some people are just blessed with healthy skin, it is true. We are constantly trying to do research on ways to keep our face blemish- free. In doing that research, we found there are waters you can drink that have certain ingredients or supplements in it to make it even better for your skin. The beauty world is finding even more ways to hydrate

The Labels and Lacquer girls love Burt's Bees. It all started in middle school for us with their original peppermint chapstick. It moisturizes, and you really can feel the minty cool on your lips. Throughout the years we continue to buy their chapstick and test new products. We also love their lotions, especially for their scents. Darby uses the Burt's Bees BB Cream. It is the perfect shade and really matches her complexion. It goes on smoothly and hides any blemishes. It als

Is it just us or has January 2018 hit you hard, too? The new year has brought some extremely exciting, but also extremely stressful stuff our way, and through dealing with that, we've learned that we've still got quite a bit to learn about self-care. It's easy to neglect yourself when you're busy tending to other relationships, making sure the chores are done, trying to get where you want to be career-wise — the list goes on and on. But, it's important to make some time for y

Got a problem? Glossier’s got the Solution. Their latest product launch will revamp your skincare routine in a BIG way. You can take my word for it. I had the chance to try out their newest product, Solution, and let me tell you — it’s going to work wonders for your skin, especially if you’ve never used any kind of liquid exfoliant before. Ok, so what exactly is Glossier’s Solution? Well, it’s a liquid that’s made up of AHA (alpha hydroxy acids), BHA (beta hydroxy acids) and

That time of the month certainly isn’t the most looked-forward-to time of the month — we get it. But, that doesn’t mean there aren’t ways to make your menstrual cycle less of a struggle. We were recently introduced to THINX period-proof panties, and it’s definitely changed the way we view our periods. Sure, it’s no fun, but if it’s going to happen — you might as well handle it like the total girlboss you are, and these underwear definitely make that possible! They make it eas

The winter months are no joke for your skin, but with just a few changes, you can completely conquer the cold weather without missing a beat! Richer moisturizers and remembering to exfoliate on the regular are just a couple of small things you can do to keep your skin from looking dry and drab this season. As the cold weather sets in, we’ll definitely be using products from brands such as Glossier, Skin Laundry and Kopari to keep our bods in tip-top shape. See some of the pro
