We’re nearly half way through January (can you believe it?!) and this is the point of the year where New Year’s Resolutions start to fly out the window. Suddenly, the momentum of the first week is gone and it’s so easy to let – well, life – get in the way. The Yoo Challenge is […]

Beauty Tuesday | New Year’s Eve Makeup & Hair
I did something thisNew Year’s Eve that I rarely, if ever, do. I spent more than 5 minutes on my makeup. No – seriously. I can usually put on a full face of makeup, from concealer to mascara, in 5 minutes or less. I’m not generally one for anything fancy. But New Year’s Eve is a […]
