I don’t know about you guys, but I am TIRED by the end of most days. Working, taking care of a household, having kids and everything else makes for one exhausted lady at times but I wouldn't trade any of it for the world.
My work is not strenuous physically but I do start my days off with some pretty...
I use exfoliants for various reasons, but overall, it’s to make my skin healthy and look good! Having just one won’t do the trick though, you need different ones for different reasons. Some are better for acne, while others are better for addressing signs of aging, No need to keep any secrets as to what works for my skin,...
If you are like me, you’re a fan of using face masks often. A lot of the time it feels like the extra step that makes it more of a self-care/ spa-like experience. I use all sorts of masks but I think one of the biggest bummers to discover eventually was how bad disposable sheet masks were to the...
Skin texture is one of those things that I feel I’ve been constantly working on for years and years. In my teens and twenties, I had oily skin with large pores and some breakouts. Fast-forward to today, and I have normal to dry skin with large pores, fine lines, and expression lines. Hooray for aging! So in an effort...
I had so much fun trying out and sharing a shampoo and conditioner from the brand Malie Organics, that they offered to send me something extra to enjoy! Malie Organics is a Hawaii-based skincare brand that only uses locally sourced organic ingredients in its products. Their signature is utilizing Hawaiian hydrosols, extracting the most beneficial parts of nature to...
I think many of my readers are probably in my age range and look for anti-aging solutions. I rotate through a variety of things like glycolics and peptides, but there is one we probably know best and it’s retinol. One of my favorite skincare brands to share with you guys is Farmacy Beauty, and they recently came out with...
It seems every year I get questions on which deodorant I’m using at the moment, or do I know of one that works. I often flip flop between antiperspirants and deodorants, usually because one will stop working or ruin my clothes. Lately, I’ve been using one from Saltair, a brand I discovered this year, and I believe it needs...
It's Spring and that means it's time for some swaps, skincare swaps that is, and Farmacy Beauty is one of my long-time favorite brands to rely on for quality skincare. Not only do they put out great products that my skin adapts well to, they are also a model brand in terms of sustainability and giving something back to...
I feel like haven't talked about First Aid Beauty in a while now and was so pleased to see they had a bunch of new products that were released in the past year. I was already a fan of their niacinamide eye cream, but now they have a new hydrating one that features hyaluronic acid. They also came out...
It doesn't matter the time of the year, living in the desert means dry skin year-round. If my nails aren't done, my cuticles are almost always snagged, and I deal with chapped lips more than I would like. And let’s not forget the occasional rough elbows. Ugh. Living in a very dry climate makes you feel older sometimes when...
