What is the difference between the CALM magnesium supplement and the Moon Juice one?
CALM is just magnesium citrate while the Moon Juice magnesium is a nice blend of 3 magnesiums (magnesium gluconate, magnesium acetyl taurinate, and magnesium citrate) and also contains L-theanine which helps with relaxation! I’ve been taking almost every night during pregnancy and postpartum and really think it helps me relax in the evening.
Heather- what are you favorite Loverboy flavors?
I’ve only tried two flavors: blueberry lemon (wine based) and the hibiscus pom (alcohol/hard tea based). I really want to try more though because they’re good! Next I want to try the lemon iced tea and the mango peach spritzer! A 12 pack is $69 so it’s a little STEEEEEP but it has been fun to try them on vacation! They are low cal, gluten free, with no added sugar and taste great.. they actually taste sweet to me so I can drink 1 or 2 before switching to my wine for the night!
Alix- what postpartum supplements are you taking?
I just switched to this postpartum multivitamin (I was taking their prenatal and liked it) and continue to take all the other supplements I took while pregnant (Omega 3, probiotics, magnesium, Vitamin D, Vital Proteins, Modere) and also Miralax right now lol (TMI? Sorry!)
I have an appointment with my naturopath at 6 weeks postpartum to get updated labs and will adjust supplements as needed.
Can you link the gallery frames you use to hang family pictures?
Yes, these are the ones I used in our bonus room and think they make the perfect gallery wall.
What makeup wipes do you use to get makeup off?
Step away from the makeup removal wipes.. they are the worst thing for your face/pores. We love this cleansing balm followed by your regular soap/cleanser!
I love the Hermes sandals that all the bloggers wear but I don’t have the money to spend on them.. any good dupes?
We have the Greece Slide by Steve Madden but these from Shein are an even better dupe and $25!!
Can you link your favorite body glow/tanning lotion? I loved your post a couple of weeks ago but it was only for the face!
Check out my post on how to get the glow here! As for body, my favorite tanning lotion is this one here. A lot of bloggers promote this one and so I want to try it when I run out of mine. I’ve used the face version and liked it but I broke out a little so I don’t really love using any facial tanning drops anymore. I am prone to breakouts when I don’t just stick to my normal skincare routine so I’m weary of anything except what my esthetician has recommended over the years.
Alix- what have been your go-to postpartum nursing friendly clothes?
