Back in my high school days I was all about the lipstick and I’m getting back to my love of wearing it again. I love how this lip tint gives enough color while hydrating my chapped pout.

Believe me when I say I have tried ALL the products! I’ve finally found one that does what I want and keeps my curls hydrated and full of bounce without all the unnecessary chemicals.

Any familiar with Norwex? I’m a fan, no I don’t sell it but I should lol.

These Body and Face packs are ideal for camping and traveling, even at home. If you are familiar with Norwex, you already know…these clean with water only. No harmful chemicals needed. Yep, that’s right no soap needed. I can’t explain but if you ever get the opportunity to attend a Norwex social/party, DO IT! I also use these for easy make-up removal and keep one in my purse to clean my glasses. I use a lot of other products such as laundry detergent, dishwasher soap but these are my favorite.

I don’t know how I came across this brand but it does the job and free from unnecessary chemicals and I like it! I mix this w/coffee occasionally but mostly in my electrolyte drinks.

A moisturizer with some tint and all the nutrients your skin needs. This is my absolute favorite and part of a trio I use in my daily makeup & skincare routine. I never leave home without this. I can wear this alone or under my foundation and it still feels light and not heavy.

Fun fact: Tallow closely mirrors the structure of our skin’s own biology.

So why not use it for…bedtime facial moisturizer, psoriasis cream, pedicure moisturizer, add to your lotion during these cold winter months to help with dry, cracked skin. I love Pomifera’s Butter Tallow for the simple fact it doesn’t smell like it just came off the animal. Instead I smell like I just stepped out of the spa!

Great for shaving legs, lathers up nicely, no unnecessary chemicals and easy on the pocketbook.

Because it doesn’t smell, it’s dissolvable and easy to clean. And it’s delivered to my doorstep!

They had me at vacuum and mop at the same time while sterilizing the floor. Add to cart and bought, no regrets and love it!

Let’s face it I’m not getting any younger and I’m blessed to still keep a youthful look but it’s WORK ya’ll! I understand the phrase, “Beauty is pain” and I don’t want to look like a troll now lol. Now don’t get me wrong, I have not had any cosmetic work but I do look for all the things to help keep me glowing!

These under eye masks are a fav and must for me to keep the fragile area under my eyes prime and hydrated (there’s that word again lol).

I loathe energy drinks but at the same time there are days I need a lil pick me up. I reach for Bloom when I don’t have access to my green tea w/honey.

Again, we aren’t getting any younger and we need all the supplements to replace what our bodies lose. I use this in my coffee every morning, I find it does not mess with the taste of my creamer w/coff…coffee w/creamer lol.

When I don’t want wine or a cocktail, I have found another way to relax and decompress after a strenuous work week. I really enjoyed the taste and will keep these stocked for my go-to.

A great powder to set the glowing look after my make-up routine. My daughter turned me on to this and it’s a favorite of hers as well.

I purchased these for a trip because it comes with it’s own case and it’s compact to carry in your make-up bag or even in your purse. After the trip was over, I bought more and stashed in travel bags, overnight bags and in my “extras” bins for overnight guests.

Theee best hair ties for my thick and curly hair. I have these stashed as well…purse, make-up bag, work desk,

I made my own rain barrels to catch the water to reduce my water bill in the summer when watering the garden or lawn. This kit has everything, all you need is the power drill.

Because I have pets, a cat and a small yorkie. I love this for the simple fact you can add your own aroma therapy oil to add fragrance.
