How Do You Do #skincare? | Winterizing My Skin Regimen

Beauty, The KG Theory, Wellness

This post is promoted by Target! YAY! How do you do skincare? This winter season has totally disrespected my skin routine. One thing I’ve been meaning to do is create a regimen for each season of the year. Interesting fact: I grew up in San Diego and never really had a skin regimen other than Dial soap and Vaseline. After I grew up, moved out of the dry coastal climate and just started living life, I have had to change my skin routine. From the super dry heat in Sudan, Africa, to the humid summers in New Jersey, I’ve figured out what my skin likes and needs. It all starts with YOU! Skin loves water and rest. Yes, products do make a difference, but putting your health first will do…

Beauty, Lifestyle, The KG Theory, Wellness

This post is promoted by Target! YAY! What to do? What to give? Feeling overwhelmed? I’ve got some great gift ideas for you that are designed to impress this season. With several great gift sets from Target, I created three gifts for my three best friends! Yeah…some can’t say they have more than one best friend, so I’m feeling pretty blessed! The challenge, however, is finding that one perfect gift for each of them. So, this year, I hacked the gift sets, took them apart and created three unique gifts for each of my friends. It’s so much easier to create your own gift that is specifically made and organized for your friends and family. People are like little melting pots of preferences; we all have layers and different interests!…

From Heat-Damage to Healthy Curls | Dove

Beauty, Hair, Hair Care Article, Hair Care Products, Wellness

This post is promoted by Dove Hair “YAYYYY!!!! No more relaxers for me!” That’s what I said when I proudly declined a touch up from a box perm my mother was fixin’ to apply to my head. I was 17 and had absolutely no idea what I was embarking on. A life of no relaxers just meant I would wash and blow dry like always right? Wrong. I was a perpetual straightener. I washed, blow-dried and flat-ironed my hair every single week. Every morning? The flat-iron would be plugged in and ready to glide down my semi-wavy, heat-damaged, half-relaxed strands. Eventually I saw the consistency of my wavy heat-damaged curls (not knowing they were heat-damaged) and didn’t (more…)

Beauty, Hair, Hair Care Article, Hair Care Products, The KG Theory, Wellness

This post is promoted by Dove Hair Weather alert! The summer has come to an abrupt end here in Dallas, and fall has set in. I must admit: Most days I love the break in 100-degree weather.

KG Goes to the U.A.E. | travel

KG on Scene, Lifestyle, The KG Theory, Wellness

"REFRESH, REFRESH! Try to bring it up on your iPad too! REFRESH!" That's what you could hear in my apartment last year on Christmas morning if you were within 10 feet of my front door. My dear friend @Jouelzy was in town and we woke up that morning to LOTS of messages and texts from friends announcing the AMAZING deal from Etihad Airways to Abu Dhabi. I had never been to Abu Dhabi so I was super intrigued. I had gone to Dhabi for my 26th birthday while living in Sudan, Africa but the thought of being in the U.A.E. with. friends was even more exciting! To be honest, I didn't take on the planning of this trip like I usually do. Too much was going on and I approached it with…
