I don’t know what it is about honey, but I have always had this admiration for it’s usage in skincare products. I guess I just always really loved honey in general and began exploring manuka honey brands so I could use the best that I could reasonably afford. Not only is honey absolutely delicious, but it also has a...
Since bare leg season is here I shave more often which means annoying bumps or ingrown hair can happen. Not only do they look terrible, but it’s uncomfortable. Today, I’m sharing the products I use to prevent ingrown hairs. I don’t use everything at the same time, but I do use a handful of these at once. So if...
There is something so soothing and relaxing about putting a good moisturizer on, isn’t it? Almost like a sigh of relief to your skin as it soaks up all the moisture, replenishing it back to a healthy state. I’ve always been an avid body lotion user, but living in the desert has made me apply moisturizers way more often,...
I feel quite fortunate that I get the opportunity to try out lots of brands because I can really hone in on what I feel is tried, true, and tested -----by me! LOL My skin has changed over the years, through pregnancy and a move out to the desert so my needs have changed because my skin reacts differently....
Anyone else let out a sigh of relief when it’s finally that time of day to take a bath or shower? Some days are so crazy that I literally make that noise when my husband comes home and then go upstairs to take a shower in peace. The shower certainly the easiest place for me to relax so I...
You would think being a full-grown adult we wouldn’t be dealing with acne, but even at 39 it still happens from time to time! Usually, for me, it’s when I don’t get to wash my face quickly enough after the gym but whatever the reason is, I want that breakout gone as fast as possible! Gone are the days...
Although I have a pretty large makeup collection, I have a tendency like anyone else to reach for certain things more than others. Some things just click. They work well, they are easy and fast to use, and put me together in minimal time. I have very little time in my schedule to do more involved looks as I...
I have a thing about exfoliation. It just feels so good to do, and leaves my skin feeling soft and smooth! Whether it be in the shower or at my sink, I always keep exfoliation products on hand to help keep cell turnover on cycle and keep breakouts and dull skin at bay.
There are two kinds of exfoliators out...
My skin is mostly normal. It gets drier in the cooler winter months while getting a bit oilier in the Summer. Regardless of the time of year, I welcome added hydration so my skin feels comfortable and incorporate it whenever I get a chance. Hydrated skin in general has a healthier skin barrier, better skin elasticity, and the ability...
Although I am an avid sunscreen user, I’m outside a lot and still get tons of sun which can dry out the skin like crazy. Fortunately, I haven’t had a burn in a long time, but that doesn’t mean that I don’t rely on a slew of hydrating and moisturizing after-sun products to keep my skin looking and feeling...
