I typically wash my face and when I'm applying my serums and lotions, I have the steamer running and it goes for about 10 minutes and turns off. Voila.. at home facial complete! … [Read more...]

| dress | jacket | My birthday is this Saturday and I'm honestly going into it pretty bummed out. March and April babies are really getting the short end of the stick this year.

Now, I recognize my responsibility is much lighter compared to others with older kids (and … [Read more...]
