Here’s a gift idea that keeps on giving: an underwear subscription from MeUndies. I got one for my husband and added on a pair for myself because they’re do dang cute. Every month we get to pick a new pair (and when we receive them, we throw one old pair out). Good plan, eh? No more wearing sad, old underwear that is
To say that this has been a super odd summer would be putting it mildly. The steady stream of awful news and limited options for escapism has made turning off the TV and being whisked away by a good book my favorite summer pastime. Here is a review of my five favorite summer reads for grownups. These books are ALL five-star winners.
Real talk. I’m not a fan of washing my hair. I’m a 2x week washer (at the most) but when I’m working out a lot in the summertime, my roots get oily. I recently discovered this Apple Cider Vinegar (ACV) hair rinse by dpHue and I’m a big fan. Add ACV Hair Rinse to your routine when you need a clean that won’t

I\'m a girl who believes in continuously trying to improve -- that\'s just how I\'m wired.
However, this year, I\'m making some changes. Last year was challenging and just two weeks into 2021, the daily news and the ongoing pandemic feel like a LOT. So I\'m focusing my goals on improving my daily habits and on things that I CAN CONTROL.
Let me give you an example. Rather than saying \\"I want to lose X pounds\\", I\'ve set a goal to workout 25 times a month, to drink more water, and to eat an early dinner and stop snacking in the evenings. Those are all things I\'m in complete control over. If I focus on them, I\'m hoping that the pounds will take care of themselves. And if that doesn\'t happen, at least I\'ve established some healthy daily habits.
One other thing I can control are the products I put on my body and use in our home. I\'m more committed than ever to ensuring that I find (and share) high-performing products that are cleaner, less toxic, and better for the planet.
What are you goals for 2020?
Tomorrow, I\'m doing a giveaway of BeautyCounter\'s brand new Clean Deodorant. I\'ve been testing it for the past few months and I can\'t wait to tell you all about it.
