Beauty For the Heart®-Do not be wise in your own eyes; fear the Lord and shun evil. Proverbs 3:7
I’ll be honest, sometimes I think I know best. I can make a list, map out a plan, and move full speed ahead, all before I’ve really stopped to talk to God about it. It’s easy to slip into that mindset of “I’ve got this.”
God gently reminds us in this verse that being “wise in our own eyes” is not what He’s called us to. He’s called us to trust.
He’s asking us to honor Him above everything else, and to turn away from anything evil that leads us in the wrong direction. It means guarding our hearts, being careful with our choices, and seeking what’s holy over what’s easy or popular.
If you’re feeling like you have to carry all the weight or make all the right decisions, slow down for a moment and pray. You don’t have to do it all on your own. Let God lead. He sees what we don’t, and His wisdom is always better than ours.
Let your beauty shine from the inside out today!

I’ve got a really sweet giveaway for you guys! It’s the perfect 2020 haul – makeup, skincare, mask, mask chain, and a $50 Amazon gift card! Keep reading to find out more.
There is so much misinformation about the coronavirus out there. Let’s hear it straight from the doctors on the front line. The Good Doctor’s Guide to Colds & Flu by pulmonologist, Dr. Neil Schachter, MD, is being updated in January to include info on COVID-19. This book has a lot of great tips about protecting yourself and treating colds and flu. For example, maybe this seems obvious now in the COVID-19 era but he says to never borrow a pen during cold and flu season. Bring your own pen to sign receipts or to check in at your doctor’s office. I’m totally on board with that now! There’s also some great advice on home remedies and pharmaceuticals.
The good doctor himself has decided to donate ALL of the proceeds from this book to patient advocacy organizations to help keep us safe! Dr. Schachter is sponsoring today’s giveaway to encourage more people to wear those masks!
So let’s talk about masks. I’ll be the first to admit – I do NOT look cool in a mask! LOL! The only good thing is the masks cover up most of my acne. You guys are complaining about maskne, but I’ve been dealing with that stuff since puberty! Welcome to the club!
I am definitely going to need to keep wearing masks for the rest of the year and probably most of 2021. I have preexisting conditions that put me at high-risk for COVID-19 (POTS which causes shortness of breath – and thyroid cancer). So if I have to go to a store, I am masking it up. BUT, I have found some ways to make masks more fashionable and a lot easier to wear.
I have recently started wearing my blogger friend Lara’s mask chains. You may know her as @prettyconnected on Instagram. Her mask chains are all the rage right now and loved by celebrities like Sarah Jessica Parker (the queen of fashion herself!).
In these pics I’m wearing the short Mermaid Mini chain along with the leopard print Simple Satch mask that I was sent for this giveaway, but I just bought the long version of the mermaid chain too.
They are SO CUTE you guys! And so useful – when you’re not wearing the mask, it’s ready and waiting around your neck, and when you are wearing it, the chain loops give you a little extra style! There are lots of styles to choose from – and they can be worn by men or women.
When I’m wearing a mask, I try to play up my eyes a bit more, since that’s pretty much all you see. Those that follow me know I love Glo Skin Beauty. I’ve been using their cruelty free mineral makeup and skincare, and they have a lot of really great products.
For this post, I’m wearing their Cool Smokey Eye Kit. It comes with a full-sized cool smokey shadow quad and a full-sized Cream Stay Shadow Stick in Orbit (matte charcoal). There’s also a warm version of this set. The products are mineral-based, clean and talc-free. The shadows are highly pigmented and very easy to blend.
I also love their skincare – especially the exfoliating AHA products. For this giveaway, I’ll be including the Smokey Eye Kit ($40) AND the Retinol Plus C Smoothing Peel in a Box ($75)! If you can’t go to a spa or dermatologist right now, this is a great at-home, professional-level kit for glowing skin.
But that’s not all folks! In addition to the Pretty Connected mask chain, Simple Satch mask, Glo smokey eye kit and Retinol + C skincare set, I’m also including a $50 Amazon gift card! We could all use some holiday cheer right now, am I right?
To enter, wait for the Rafflecopter widget to load below. You must be 18 or older, US only. We are not responsible for prizes lost in the mail. Giveaway ends December 21st at 12 am PST. The winner will be contacted via email.
With Jew-hatred at its most alarming levels in years and Jewish businesses facing doxxing and destruction, supporting Jewish-owned businesses this holiday season has never been more crucial. Around the world, Jewish people are standing up to demand their civil rights as a minority, and one of the most impactful ways to support this movement is through thoughtful spending. Giving back is a cornerstone of Judaism, and here’s an easy way to start: shop to light up the night—and support the Jewish business community in the process.
It’s a shorter list than usual, but that’s because they are all fail-safe gifts. You cannot go wrong!
For Her
The perfect star for daily wear, just the right size, and perfect for layering. It also comes in white gold. This is the only pricey item on this list, but we think it’s worth it! We do love this faux gold star under $13 (!) if you’re looking for an affordable version.
