Hi! We’ve just returned from a magnificent trip to Belize. While there, I had plenty of time to relax and reflect on life and this blogging journey. Can you believe that it has been 6 years since I launched my blog? Yep, it was January 2014 when I had this little idea to learn something new and share daily stories. There are 6 things that I have learned about myself while being a blogger. Let’s get a little personal today…
You might know by now that Laura and I are on an influencer trip to Disney World + Disney Cruise to the Bahamas. Shooting looks on a trip doesn’t just happen. There’s lots of work that goes into it long before you ever depart. We want to deliver the best content, tips and tricks for you, so we plan ahead for our photoshoots; ESPECIALLY when they are travel photoshoots. No matter if you are going out of town for a family trip, or just to another town for the perfect shot, here are tips you need to plan accordingly to make your travel photos memorable.
I can’t wait to present to you my new favorite makeup bag. I first discovered Walker Valentine through receiving several pieces as gifts. I then realized that I had ordered the travel jewelry case at a trunk show in Aspen several years ago. No wonder I kept being drawn to this amazing brand. Let’s discover Walker Valentine. Plus, there’s a GIVEAWAY today for a Walker Valentine bag!
Do you ever wonder how these photo’s are curated? Yes, a professional photographer takes them but they don’t magically just happen. Today I am taking you through the process of how this all magically happens. I have 5 Tips on How to Prep for a Photo Shoot and they could help you too!
Happy Wednesday! Can you believe this cold spell we’ve just had? It seems like a great time to talk about winterizing your skin. There are two things that I’m doing right now in addition to my daily skincare routine that have really made a difference in my skin. I’ve gotten an IPL Photofacial treatment at Eleven Wellness and LOVE the results (BONUS: there’s a special offer for my subscribers today). Also, I’m sharing this new moisturizing cream with you by Sunday Riley.
Sometimes I wonder if being an adult will ever come with clear skin? It seems like you should get a break at this age, right? After all, we are through those difficult teenage years of raging hormones. Most of us have raised our babies and survived the hormone changes that come with pregnancy and the immediate aftermath of having children. As an empty nester who has successfully crossed over that final hormone bridge, you would think that skin issues would no longer be a problem. Would you be surprised to know that many adults still deal with acne? Let me share my findings with you and you might just think ALTRENO® (tretinoin) lotion, 0.05% from Ortho Dermatologics is for you!
I have to admit it – I was one of those people who really frowned upon the thought of getting hair extensions. It seems like such a defeat. Like you’re waiving the white flag and giving up on having older, healthy hair. But once I did my research and vetted the process, I was up for the transformation. This is what I am doing to solve my thinning hair problems immediately – I got hair extensions! Let me tell you about my experience at the Michael Flores Salon.
You might know this already if you follow my Instagram Stories. If not, I’m here to share that Pete and I have been on the Keto lifestyle since mid-September. Why? In all honesty, Pete wanted to lose weight and in order for that to happen I have to do the research, discover a plan that will work for us and implement it. And I am always trying to lose the same 10 pounds that never seem to permanently get off my body. UGH – anyone else have this problem? Let me tell you how the Keto lifestyle has helped me look better and feel better. Simply put – Why Keto Works!
There is no shortage of aesthetic procedures, beauty products, facials and reviews on this blog. I love trying new beauty treatments because let’s face it, anti-aging is my thing. I found a fabulous facial treatment that you can do right before a big event with absolutely no downtime. You’ll have GLOWING skin in 24 hours! Check out my experience with the Aquagold Facial at Eleven Wellness.
Let’s just call a spade a spade. What is CBD and who should use it? I think there is so much confusion about this natural supplement so I decided to try it and let you know my honest opinion. Does it work? Let’s find out with The Trusted Lab… BONUS: Subscribers get a special discount offer!
Lately, I decided to start trying to layer my jewelry more. I’ve noticed how chic and trendy it looks, so I had to experiment! It took me a while to get the hang of it but I’m definitely sold on layering necklaces since it really elevates a casual look. So today I want to share my findings on how to layer necklaces. If I can do it, you can too!
I’ve been a lifestyle blogger over 5 1/2 years and have logged over 1,400 blog posts. Even if you have been with me since day one in January 2014, I am certain some of these blog posts escaped you. It is with intention that the posts that resonated with you are getting updated and republished. You saw that last week with this blog post. Many times, these posts have solved a problem, explored a new procedure or answered a question. Today, let’s revisit my findings when I had a PRP Facelift which I believe is one of the most effective aesthetic procedures I’ve had.
