Imagine sliding into a warm delicious-smelling bubble bath after a long day at work. Or curling up on the couch with your favorite mystery as you try to figure out whodunit.
But let’s be real, when you’re a busy woman working full time you don’t feel like you have time for self-care of any kind.
And I feel like the older I get the more I feel guilty for wanting to do anything I consider to be fun or not productive.
Being over 35 is a trip ain’t it? But the thing is, you shouldn’t feel guilty for “indulging “ in self-care or even feel like you don’t have time.
It can be especially hard to take care of yourself if you are struggling with depression or anxiety (or ADHD) like I have had in the past. The guilt is extra real then. Continue reading
How To Journal Lists to Help You Glow Up and Be Beautiful Inside and Out
If you’re anything like me then you’re on a glow up journey too. I love personal development and trying to grow as a woman with each passing year.
However, for the rest of this year, I plan to kick it up a notch.
With the help of my glow-up and self-care journal (more on that later), I’ve been taking notes and documenting my inner and outer glow-up journey instead of just winging it like I normally do.
As you journey through life, you will realize that embracing your inner and outer beauty is key to glowing up.
Glowing up is not just about making changes to your outward appearance (although that’s a really fun and exciting part of the journey).
It is also about becoming a better version of yourself on the inside. And journaling provides the perfect platform to achieve holistic growth. Continue reading
Looking for some affordable stretch marks remedies that work? Then continue reading for some products that can help fight stretch marks that can be at your house in 2 days.
I’ve been on Instagram.
I’ve seen the hashtags and the memes.
I understand the need to embrace your tiger stripes, love marks, growth marks, or whatever else people want to call stretch marks.
I have grown to be more okay with my own but Imma keep it real with you…
I’d be more than okay if they were gone.
Like far more than okay. I’d be overjoyed even.
Because I don’t like them. There I said it 🙂.
I mean yes I can be content with them while they are here but that doesn’t mean that I’m going to stop looking for ☑️products like this amazing stretch mark cream to get rid of them in the meantime.
And if you’re reading this, I think it’s safe to say that you are with me in this fight against stretch marks.
Part of being as healthy as you can be is feeling confident in how you look (which is why I talk about beauty on this blog).
If you feel confident with your stretch marks then I think that’s great.
If you are more like me in that you know that stretch marks don’t define you or lessen who you are but you still wouldn’t mind making them less visible, then this post is for you.
So if you’re ready let’s go.Continue reading
Collagen Supplement Benefits For Skin, Sleep, & Weight Loss
Okay, my loves so in this post right here (The magical link between weight loss and sleep), I talked about how sleep plays a huge role in our weight loss efforts.
Like yuge.
But we also need to take some other things into consideration in order to have the best fat-burning sleep that we can have.
And not only can these considerations help us sleep better but it can also make our skin look oh-so amazing.
What is this amazing thing of which I speak?
Collagen, babe. So we are going to talk about this plus some ☑️amazing and affordable collagen supplements that you can get from Amazon that got me tons of compliments. So let’s get started!
Do you have super dry skin on your body like I do?
I’ve had dry skin as long as I can remember and I’m always looking for some more home remedies to help alleviate this desert that I call my skin
That’s because skincare matters a lot to me. Ain’t no shame in my game.
And I don’t know why. Maybe in the big scheme of things, it doesn’t matter but I still care.
Maybe it’s because we have to look at it all the time.
Maybe it’s because we can’t help but compare ours to others but whatever the reason, we can sometimes obsess about the state of our skin.
The skincare industry is a billion-dollar industry and for good reason.
Our skin is our largest and most noticeable organ.
No matter how much I wished we only got judged by the content of our character or by our actions, we still (especially women) get judged by our beauty and skincare is a big part of that.
I used to watch YouTube videos that would show women doing a 10 step skincare routine every night and 20-minute shower routines.
Their skin was glowing and beautiful no doubt but after I got off from work and started writing, running my blogs, cooking dinner, and cleaning, I don’t always want to invest that much time in my skincare.
