I love me some olive oil. Mix it with some seasoning and balsamic vinegar, and then dunk your thinly sliced crusty bread right in. OMG. I just drooled a little. You can also use it, and probably do, for spaghetti sauces, salad dressings, hummus, pesto, and even to roast those veggies. As far as flavoring …
No, I didn’t say crocodile skin. This isn’t a scaly, rough, and gross trend — it isn’t one of those weird, over-the-top trends. When you think of a dolphin’s skin, you should have visions of something plump, smooth, and sleek. When it jumps out of the water, a dolphin glistens and glows with that dewy, …

Alex Rodriguez may have split from Jennifer Lopez, but that hasn’t deterred him from moving on to bigger and better things.

I legit thought I was growing a mustache, to be fair I need glasses really badly. But it turns out, I don’t have a mustache it’s just skin discoloration called Melasma and a TON of women have it. Ladies, let me tell you I was seriously stressing about it. See, I have a lot of …

If you’ve kept up with any of my recent posts, you’ll see that it is safe to say that I LOVE bath bombs!!! In fact, we just moved into a new house with a huge tub and bath bombs are one of the few things I talk about these days! With the spooky season approaching, …

Bath and Body Works is closing 50 stores in the United States, and 1 of its stores in Canada in 2020. At first, I was shocked by this news, and THEN I found out that they are closing mostly locations inside malls. This makes a LOT more sense. Malls used to be THE place to …
Y’all! Sit down and listen closely. This is NOT a drill. On Saturday, December 14, Bath & Body Works locations and their online store will be offering all body care products — those are things like cleansers, lotions, aroma therapy, and fragrances — for $4.95 a piece! That’s over 600 items that will be on …
I have crazy sensitive skin and can’t use all sorts of different soaps and skin products. That is why I love this Oatmeal and Honey Soap! I use it ALL the time, and it is one of the few things that doesn’t give me dry, flaky sin. What You Need To Make Oatmeal And Honey …
If you’re like me, then you are all about a good sugar scrub, and this green team lemon sugar scrub is one of my absolute favorites. I am a huge fan of basically using this as often as possible. If you’re looking to feel calm and clean, this green tea sugar scrub is a must-make. …
Having a baby is such an exciting time–and you want to do EVERYTHING perfect…or at least I do…can’t really speak for you. So, before I do anything (and I mean ANYTHING–even clean house or treat allergies), I try to do some research. And since this is my second pregnancy, I’ve identified my favorite Pregnancy-Safe Essential …
Are you feeling blue? Do you travel into the wild blue yonder once in a blue moon? Did you order the blue plate special out of the blue and think it deserves a blue ribbon? Does a blue sky make you talk until you’re blue in the face? Would a blue screen of death leave you …
I’ve never really been a follower of that whole “go organic” movement. It’s hard to care about that kind of thing when you can barely afford the regular, non-organic foods. But now that I’ve got the choice, I still can’t say that I know what I’m doing when it comes to the world of organic …

I’ve been on a kick lately to take better care of my skin. I’m in my thirties, I’ve accepted that I’m aging, and there are things I can do to age more gracefully, shall we say. It’s all fun and games until your eyes swell shut! Yup, I changed my facial routine and ended up …
This year we’re really trying to cut costs. Since I’ve transitioned to writing full time I’m always looking for ways to save a buck. The other week we decided to visit our new dollar store and load up on some essential items where cost cutting is allowed. We were strolling the aisles, looking for some …

I personally don’t know any woman that would turn down getting a pedicure if the opportunity presented itself. As for a man, that is a total different ball game. My husband won’t let anyone near his feet even if I convince him that the manliest of men go to the salon to get pedicures! So …
Soap is one of those common household items that I never think about until I’m washing my hands and discover that I’ve only got the “water” part of “soap and water.” This happens to me way too often – someone should probably come and revoke my adult card. And I’m not saying that making my …
Not to hate on high end skin care, but damn is that stuff expensive! Like did they go to heaven to retrieve the tears of angels for this toner? Did Johnny Depp personally kiss each one of these cleansers before they were put on the shelf? Does it come with an esthetician to expertly apply …
I am one of those people who loves makeup. I have drawers and drawers of it. I can’t stop buying cosmetics, and I think they are totally fun to own! But the truth is, I don’t wear them that often, why? Because the less makeup you wear, the better your skin looks! No, seriously, try …

Sometimes it is a chore just to get out of bed. Add in thoughts of having to take care of other human beings (aka your family) and it’s enough to make a woman want to run away from home somedays. That’s okay, though, because it could be that all you need is a little pick-me-up …
This winter has seemed exceptionally long and cold. With the cold comes dry skin, chapped skin, and inevitably irritated and acne prone skin. That’s exactly where my skin condition lies now. I’ve been playing around with some homemade masks and skin care products that will get my skin and complexion feeling and looking better. This …
If you are a regular here, you know that we have recently started using and LOVING our Young Living Essential oils! We’ve been diffusing our Peace and Calming for the last two weeks during school work, and have even made some really simple kid-made gifts. That’s why I am SUPER EXCITED to share the best essential …
I have recently gotten really into essential oils. The thing is, they’re good for all sorts of things, and I love putting a couple of drops into sugar scrub or bath salts. But one of my favorite things to use essential oils in is my beauty regimen! It took a little while for me to …
I am a total sucker for baths. I take one every single day. Sometimes two if it’s just been one of those days. But, all those fancy bath pamper products cost a fortune, so I save money by making my own! Seriously the cost of this Make Your Own Bath Salt is about $1.05 per jar. …
