Stay Healthy And Hydrated With Neutrogena® Norwegian Formula® Hand Cream
One thing I learned from living in Alaska is that during the winter months, it’s VERY important to keep your skin hydrated (from the inside out). Not only does it make you feel better (no itchiness or tightness of the skin) but it can actually help you stay healthy during this time of year. That’s why I actively work to keep myself hydrated on the inside and the outside when it’s cold outdoors and the forced air is on indoors. From drinking tons of water to stashing tubes of lotion everywhere, here’s what I do to stay healthy and hydrated (with Neutrogena® Norwegian Formula® Hand Cream).

Amazing Beauty and Health Options for Women, Men, and Children from FOREO
So, I’m not much of a beauty person. I’m super low-key about the make-up I use and often go days and days without wearing any. However, one reason I can do that and not feel like a total uggo is because long ago, I learned the importance of excellent skin and dental care. If your skin and teeth are healthy and glowing – you really can feel confident in any situation – with or without make-up. So, naturally, I’m always on the lookout for awesome tools that I can invest in to help me keep my skin and teeth at their best. And I’m SO, SO excited to say… I found something AWESOME for those of you in the same boat! In January, I was able to preview (and play with) several products from the FOREO skin and dental lines and, OMG – they’re not only fantastic tools, they’re so chic and modern looking! So check out my rundown of the amazing beauty and health options for women, men, and children from FOREO:
My Second Trimester Must Haves
I’m solidly into my second trimester with this, my second pregnancy, and I’ve definitely been relying on several items to make this time easier/more enjoyable. My post-first pregnancy belly flap has taken on the form of an actual baby bump so I’m looking less like a super fat lady with a beer gut and more like a super fat pregnant lady. I’m feeling much better that I was during my first trimester and have been really enjoying the idea of a having a baby boy! Here’s a rundown of my second trimester must haves:

Bridal Skin Care on a Budget
A key ingredient to a fabulous bridal look is… great skin. Really. If your skin is radiant, your make-up will look amazing, your hair will shine, and your photos will be stunning. But let’s be honest, getting great skin can be EXPENSIVE – if you don’t know where to score a deal. The key to gorgeous skin can be achieved at home AND on a drugstore budget – just use these brands religiously.
