Organizing your T-Shirt Drawer

Hello again!

Today I'm going to show you all how I organize my T-Shirt drawer in order to get the best use of the space!

This is what my drawer looked like before organization:


And this is my drawer after!


What you first want to do is lay your shirt out flat on your bed or a table.


Next, fold it in half vertically.


Fold the sleeves in.


Fold it in half horizontally.


Fold it horizontally one last time.


Now, place your freshly folded shirt in your drawer!


Here's another view of my finished drawer!



This is an easy and quick way to get some much needed space in your T-Shirt drawer!

Let me know what you do to organize your life!

Send me ideas!

My Avon Holy Grail Products


Hello again!

Sorry, I suck at posting. I swear, whenever I start getting ahead, life throws some wacky thing at me. But, the good news is that I am BACK!

Today I'm just going to share with you some of my Avon Holy Grail products!

Before I get into these products, I will share with you that I have stopped using one of these products (the Clearskin Professionals face scrub) so I will not be talking about that one!

IF you have any Avon products you would like me to try, let me know in the comments or an email!


The first product is the Avon Elements Moisture Boost Daily Moisture Cream Broad Spectrum SPF 15 Oil-Free. This is originally $8.99, but is currently on sale for $4.99. I actually first heard about this product from one of my favorite YouTubers, The Glamour Index, I will link her channel here.

I use this moisturizer in the morning and it has really helped to control the oil in my skin! If you have oily to combination skin, I highly recommend this moisturizer to you. It's affordable and very high quality. Not to mention, it lasts FOREVER! I have had this for a few months and I'm not even a quarter of the way through it.








Next is this Clearskin® Pore Penetrating Black Mineral Mask. This mask is $6.99 originally, which is a great deal! I purchased this mask just to see if it would really work. I am overall pretty impressed with it. I don't use it all too often, but I do use it whenever I'm breaking out really badly and I my skin is super oily. I can't say that this mask works wonders, but it does make my face feel clean and smooth.

If you are looking for a face mask for when your skin feels extra gross, I would highly recommend this product! 


I use this Anew Vitale Gel Cleanser to wash my face this morning. I found that it leaves my skin moisturized and doesn't dry my skin out. This is $10.00, and lasts a long time, I've barely put a dent in it.

If you are looking for a good morning cleanser, I would highly recommend this as it leaves my skin feeling refreshed and smooth.





I use this Clearskin® Professional Daily Correcting Lotion at night after washing my face. It is $17.00 but lasts FOREVER! I did swear by this three-step system, but recently was inspired by The Glamour Index to try out the St. Ives Apricot Scrub, which is why I no longer use the face wash from this line. This is a good moisturizer to use if you have acne-prone skin like myself, but I just want to warn you to be careful with how much salicylic acid you are putting on your face.

I would recommend this product, as long as you use it sparingly, as too much salicylic acid is not good for your face, believe me! 





I recently purchased this Ideal Flawless Pressed Powder in the shade Translucent to set my makeup. It is originally $10 but is currently on sale for $6.99! I actually threw away the little pad that came with it and use a fluffy brush with the powder.

This is a great, inexpensive, product that gives you a great matte finish to any makeup look!





I have been using this Ideal Flawless Cream Concealer in the shade Neutral for quite a while now and I absolutely love it! There are a million ways to apply it and it gives great coverage. It is only $7.00 and lasts an extremely long time. I'm still on my first container!





I just recently picked up this Extra Lasting Eyeshadow Ink in the shade Gold Gleam and instantly loved it! It is a little pricey at $7.00, but it's frequently on sale, and I'm sure it will last a long time. I use this shadow as a base color every day and I actually want to go buy some more colors to accent it! It can be a bit hard to work with at first, but I found that using my fingertip and just patting it on my eyelids works the best!

If you are looking for an AWESOME eyeshadow that has great coverage, I highly recommend this product!





I have had this Mark. Just Pinched blush for a LONG time. So long that Avon no longer carries it. The good news is, I found a product that's just like it and a similar shade for you! The Be Blushed Cheek Color in the shade Tropical Peach is basically the exact same thing, just different packaging! It is originally $8.00 but is currently on sale for $4.99! This is a great deal, because clearly this product lasts FOREVER!

I am actually not a big blush person, but I recently started using this again and It is so easy to apply and blend. All you need to do is apply a line of it where desired and blend with your fingers. How easy is that!

If you aren't sure about blush and want to start out easy, I highly recommend you try this out, because it is a game changer!





This  SuperExtend Precise Liquid Liner is awesome! It is $9.00 but totally worth it! I have never been good at applying eyeliner on my lids, but this product makes it a breeze! The tip is extremely precise, which makes it super easy to get a nice clean line!

If you are new to liquid liner, I would highly recommend this product!





This Glimmersticks Waterproof Eyeliner in Blackest Night is the best eyeliner crayon I have ever used. It is $7.00 and totally worth it. I use this on my waterline and it doesn't run at all and stays nice all day.

If you're looking for a great staple eyeliner, you've found it here!





I also just picked up this SuperExtend Winged Out Mascara in the shade Blackest Black and I already love it! It is $8.00 and I'm sure if you keep watching my website, there will be a sale on it sometime soon! This mascara gives me great length and volume without making my eyelashes stick together. What more could I ask for?





The Extra Lasting Liquid Foundation has been my go-to foundation for quite some time now. I originally bought the shade Shell, but it was a bit too dark for me. So when I ran out, I purchased the shade Light Ivory which is a much better match. This is $12.50 originally but is currently on sale for $9.99!

I love how this foundation gives me great coverage without feeling heavy or sticky on my skin.





Those are all of my current Avon Holy Grail Products, but keep your eye out for more, because I'm always finding something new I want to try!
