Mini Beauty Haul in Playa del Carmen + Video Diary Update

Spent the weekend with these Brazilian beauties... one of the best Galentine's Day celebration EVER!

Whoa! It's already been three weeks that I've been in Playa del Carmen and I think I've got my sea legs... literally. Beachin' every weekend and meeting new friends almost daily has been amazing.

However, in the midst of all of this newness it has also been very comforting to find spots of "normalcy" --like going to a regular 'ole strip mall and grocery store shopping on the weekends. It's funny how we're often so busy living out our regular lives and working that we easily take the comfort and ease of our simple weekly routines, like running errands, for granted. When out of your element, getting regular things done like going to the bank, or the grocery store, or for me-- the beauty supply store, all in one day is not only considered an accomplishment, but a new adventure in unchartered territory. 

Needless to say, I was uber excited to get away from the tourist throes of 5th Ave and venture a bit further into my neighborhood. I not only found a Sally's, but a grocery store to rival Walmart (which is great, but often low stocked-- especially in the beauty section. (Do you notice a theme forming here? Lol). Check out my latest video diary to see what beauty (yes, definitely a theme) and beach wear deals I was able to score, as well as what I've been up to of late.
