How to Pamper yourself on Vacation

How to Pamper Yourself on Vacation

Hello Pretty Ladies, Sharing a couple of ways on “How to Pamper yourself on Vacation” Take time out to head to a spa you heard about and treat yourself to a massage or Facial, take luxury Skincare with you to treat yourself kindly while away. Remember to take time to breathe, relax, drink water, and be in the moment. Vacations are a time to rejuvenate.

Bumble Lane

“In your life, there will be places you will visit and never forget. Bumble Lane is one of those places.” They are telling the truth! A wonderful mix of Luxury and pampering. The Product boutique is full of all the brands I adore and some new ones that I quickly fell in love with! (Bond #9 won me over)

Bumble Lane Treated us each to a facial, not just any facial, the New Geneo Hydrate Blue Spirulina Facial. A facial that Brightens skin, Reduces Hyperpigmentation, improves skin texture, evens skin tone, and protects against sun damage. It was a fabulous facial, and my skin is still glowing two weeks later from it! I highly recommend it. Below I will share the three main steps of the Geneo and what sets the Geneo treatment apart from other Exfoliation facials.

Using patented oxygenated technology and active ingredients, the GeneO™ works inside and outside of the skin to promote natural skin oxygenation with ultrasound infusion providing long-lasting results with no downtime. Three main steps of the Geneo: Exfoliation, Oxygenation, Nourishment.

Above is the product that was in the Gift bag they gave us. Let me tell you I have been enjoying the products ( I have a post next week on the home facial I did myself, with these products) So very good! The Bond #9 perfume and cream is to die for! The smell is soft, fresh yet bold, and oh so good! It’s pricey, yet it is so good I bought the cream.

New Year New You? 3 Things I am adding to my Routine

New Year New You? 3 Things I am adding to my Routine in the New Year.

Hello Pretty Ladies, And Happy New Year! So I just wanted to share a couple of things I am working on for my health and diet for January.

Last week, I shared on the blog about adding habits/goals how I like to build on small intentions or goals once a month instead of making an extensive list and trying to accomplish it all at once. Trying to stay consistent for the whole year can be difficult and cause failure. (more on that HERE) Last week, we also had a fun Live Chit Chat Chic on Several New Years Topics, intentions, fitness, and health plans for 2022.

I thought it would be good to share a couple of the things I started on January 3rd and take you on my journey here and in stories on Instagram. The Big thing I am adding is Active & Fit, deciding I would set the intention for a better fitness routine. It’s been hard to fit into my hectic schedule, and NOW with Active&Fit Now, I can fit in a workout that will work within my schedule. Use the app for activities at home or head to one of the on-list gyms.

I love the flexibility of fitness centers or at-home workouts on demand.

New Year New You? Things I am adding to my Routine

#2 is I am doing 30 days of Whole30. I like to do this a couple of times in the year. Because it helps me to shed a few pounds, Mainly because it helps me clean up my diet, reset my body, and gives me more energy and the taste for healthy food. Whole30 is a great way to get rid of your cravings. Whether it’s sugar, carbs, or alcohol, Whole30 resets your taste buds, if you will.

Here are some great Whole30 approved foods I use below:

#3 is to add in more fiber. My girlfriend Jane @southernshine2017 lost 40 pounds over a couple of months by adding 30 grams of fiber into her diet. Because of this, I thought I would give it a try. Next week, I will blog on what I am eating to get fiber in my diet.

*Because Several of you are trying to add more water into your diet for 2022. So I wanted to share the bottle I have been using for over two years with you. This bottle helped me reach my water Habit goal and hopefully will help you too.

Selfcare Sunday, New Year, New You!

Selfcare Sunday, New Year, New You! A great way to start the New Year is by taking time for yourself. Selfcare is really important for your mental health and wellbeing. After the busy holidays and the start of a new year, self-care is the perfect way to refresh and start a new skincare and self-care regimen.

I love to take one of the days on the weekend and set aside an hour or two for a facemask with a complete skincare regimen, a hot bath, refreshing lemon water, which is so important for your body, and some time for my daily devotional or book. I feel nothing like a long soak in the tub with a good book to relax and take your mind off things. It is proven taking time for yourself helps improve mental health, Spark creativity, Boost self-esteem, create empathy for others. And your Skin, body, and mental health will all benefit as well.

: Relaxing Bath

: Lemon and Mint Water

: Read and a soak

Self-care Skincare, do you know the proper order to apply skincare? Did you know there was a proper order to apply your skincare? Finally, there is a proper order to apply your skincare to achieve maximum results and benefits. Below, I share the proper order to apply your skincare for your self-care day. Due to adding in the facemask, these steps are a little longer than the normal daily skincare regimen.

The results after a relaxing bath and Skincare.

-Cleanser

-Face mask

-Toner

-Serum

-Eye cream

-Moisturizer

-Face oil ( if used)

6 New Year questions?

We had 6 New years Questions on our Live Chit Chat Chic about All things New Year’s Eve. It was so fun to hear our following responses, and they loved ours, so I thought I’d share a little recap!

1. Do you Stay in or Go out? Most of our following said to stay in….For us, New Year’s Eve really does depend on the year. Sometimes we do get all dressed up and go out. This year we stayed in, Got in cozies, had the fire going, put on a movie, popped a bottle, and had a beautiful dinner at home, just the two of us.

2. Do you have a New Years Tradition? Our following had answers from having a bonfire (burning their trees), playing games and having a dinner of all appetizers, having a movie night in pj’s, and watching the ball drop. Growing up, my mom always did appetizers and a Charcuterie board (not called that then). We’d sometimes play UNO or Yahtzee, and we always had Dick Clark’s NYE in Time Square on tv. We did almost the same when we raised our family, but our boys liked a movie marathon—all of the Star Wars or one of the Marvel series.

3. Are you a goal setter or prefer setting intentions, or Do you pick a Word? The answers on this one were all over… some Set goals and then set themselves up to Fail (in a funny way), Or some set only a couple of goals so they could work on obtaining several set intentions or picked words.

I do a little of each, and I do make a list. I also create a vision board to go with the list. This list is because I do believe in Manifestation. Our brains are powerful. And I am writing down and visualizing sets the ball in motion. Also, set intentions that are small things I can change or add and make buildable.

I heard about building on small intentions a couple of years ago. Minor changes you want to make… set one a month, and when you accomplish that after 30 days, add another one. Like drinking more water, this was on several lists) add a bottle a day, then two, etc., until you hit your goal.

Then add another intention or habit, like walking, and repeat. I have done this the last couple of years, and it does help. For example, I wanted to walk more and be consistent the previous year! I accomplished it by adding a day and adding miles each time. In addition, I added in my water goal to drink 128 oz a day the year before. These Bottles helped me! Achieve my new habit and stick to it.

4. Do you like a paper planner/ calendar, organizer, or computer program? A paper calendar/planner was by far the most popular. We Could have spent a whole hour on just this topic. All the CCC girls like a paper planner/ organizer. Here is my planner. You can get it in a week at a glance or a day at a glance. I like the day at a glance as it has more room for my lists, to do, work, etc.

5. Do you have 1 Thing you want to accomplish in 2022? Our CCC didn’t have time to answer—kind of hard to respond fast. Here is one of mine=. We want to get our home sold. That would be a great accomplishment for us. So, if you know anybody wanting to relocate to Utah, message me.

6. Are you starting a fitness/ health plan? People loved this one, and most were beginning some diet, exercise journey had a health goal, etc. For example, drinking more water was a significant health goal, so was eating cleaner and cutting out sugar. Some were starting programs etc.

: Vitamin routine

: fitness plan

: Lemon and Mint Water

I shared a few of my intentions/build on from years past. – Drinking more water -regular exercise-30 mins of reading- better vitamin regimen-nightly skincare Regimen. I accomplished all of them and still do because of the buildable technique I learned.

This year I am adding more Fiber to my diet, Adding in a new monthly Bible study workbook. Weekly, and adding more fitness in other than walking and Pilates.

I’ll share more next week, here on New Year New You? 3 Things I am adding to my Routine in the New Year.

Thank you for taking the time to stop by and read my blog post “6 New Year questions?” In the comments, let me know what changes you’re trying to make in 2022 below. You can also find me on Instagram, Pinterest, Liketoknowit, Amazon shops, and Facebook.

Christmas Chit Chat and a Couple Recipes

Christmas Chit Chat and a Couple Recipes!

My favorite time of the year is finally here- Though admittedly, I’ve been decorating for the holidays since the beginning of November. (Annual Holiday Home Tour is Saturday on Instagram) Don’t worry, and I’ll be adding Decor ideas and this year’s Holiday Decor look HERE on the blog Sunday!

Our Chit Chat Chic Girls had a fun chat yesterday about some random holiday items, and we thought that would make for a great blog post. Quick & easy to read with some fun get to know us Holiday items. Do you do a red lip or red nails? A cookie swap? Have a favorite dish you take on repeat? Are you ready for the Holiday, or have you finished Christmas shopping? Do you host a party? Typical questions you ask your girlfriends, and that’s what we all are, right? Girlfriends… So join us in sharing our conversation. All of us answered the questions on TODAY’S blog post…I hope you enjoy the conversation! (make sure to check out Cindy, Lisa, Michelle’s blogs today.)

Let’s get to the Christmas Chic Chat…

1. Do I do a Red Lip? I have tried it, and I look like a hooker!! But I have friends, and my sister sport a red lip and looks fab. So, one Red that did work for me is by Tom Ford that I can pull off with my big lips that look good, and I wear it only this time of the year and in February.

2. Do I wear Red or Holiday Nails? I sure do love a good Red with Blue undertones, not orange. However, I love Holiday Nails as well. In November, I started sporting Red Nails, and I just had a Holiday manicure done on Monday!

3. Are you done with your Shopping? Yes, Yes… I am!

4. Do you Host a Holiday Party? I host a small girlfriend’s party year every year. A sit-down dinner, yummy drinks, and everyone bring a “Favorite thing” gift for an exchange. Personally, I like the smaller group to be able to chat, spend time catching up with each other.

I threw a BIG Holiday cocktail party every year, and it just got too Big. It was fun, but we’ve moved past those times in our lives and love things scaled-down and spending quality time with those we love on a smaller scale. Hence the tiny Girlfriend Party was born.

I also Host Christmas Eve, Christmas Morning, and Christmas Dinner! It brings me great joy, and I wouldn’t have it any other way. If you do not have anyone to spend it with, you are welcome at our home, As a full house at Christmas is a blessing.

5. What’s your Favorite “go-to” Christmas Holiday Appetizer? I have made this crescent roll dill cream cheese Appetizer for years, and it comes highly requested! Recipe HERE

6. Have you ever hosted a cookie swap? I have not. But I have Hosted a gingerbread house decorating party several times, and it’s an enjoyable party to have.

7. Favorite Christmas cookie? I love Shortbread my recipe HERE, and I adore German Rasberry thumbprint cookies made by Vera (my mom’s friend and client). These are massive labor of love, and she would make us 3-4 cookies each every year until we moved to Utah. ( My mom has the recipe, and I will get it for you)

Some of my favorite Baking items:

8. Have you purchased a New Piece of clothing you are excited about this season? Really? Who are we talking too:) I am in love with this Sequined Duster, I purchased it in the Fall for the Holiday season, and it is back in stock! It is perfect for dressing up any outfit and great for NYE.

7 Beauty Products I Used Up

My honest review of the product I’ve used up over the last couple of months. 7 beauty products I have purchased on repeat and worth giving a try.

1. Tula Purifying Face Cleanser = Probiotic gel-based cleanser removes dirt and impurities and makeup gently and effectively. Use morning and night. I have been using this product for over two years and love how it cleans my face. Not drying and indeed removes all makeup while leaving my skin feeling clean and fresh. This is a purchase again, in my book product.

2. Tula 24-7 Moisture= Hydrating day & night cream leaves my skin feeling hydrated without oily. In addition, it helps my dry skin. As I have aged, my skin has gotten dryer and needs this product. I have also been using this product for the last couple of years. I use it in my morning routine.

3. Tula Balanced Beauty Gummy Vitamins= Probiotics and superfood Gummie vitamins for solid hair, skin & nails. These Berry-flavored gummies taste great, and with Biotin & Folic Acid, I noticed a difference in my hair and skin. This product is my 3rd bottle, and I used it for three months to make sure I was giving it an honest review and to provide the product with a chance to see if it worked as it claimed. I will continue to use it.

4. Tula So Pumpkin Exfoliating Sugar Scrub= This gentle sugar & fruit enzyme scrub with pumpkin smells amazing, improves skins texture, helps unclog pores, and leaves your skin feeling so soft and radiant. If you love the smell of pumpkin and like smooth, soft skin, you’ll love this product. I highly recommend it.

5. Loreal Sublime Bronze self-tanning water mousse= A natural-looking tan in 4-6 hours, doesn’t have that yucky self-tanner smell, doesn’t streak, is so easy to use. Affordable and my go-to self-tanner.

6. SeroVital Suddenly Smooth Gentle RetinAll=Anti Wrinkle, visibly lifting cream for mature skin. 2% Retinol Compound Epidermal growth factor. You can use this product day and night if followed with sunscreen. It was gentle enough and not drying like a lot of products that contain Retinol. Although I did like this product for my neck, I did avoid using it on my cheeks, which tend to be dryer.

7. Serovital TriHydrate Concentrate= 3% Purified Hyaluronic Acid use Am or Pm before moisturizing. Hyaluronic Acid is an ingredient everyone should use in their skincare.
