Hey y’all! If you are all in to skin care like I am, you know that one of the major fads in skin care right now is hyaluronic acid. How many of you know why this is so popular? What does it do?

Another big skin care DO at the moment. Let’s talk about why you want to incorporate glycolic acid into your skin care routine! What does it do?

Random Acts of Kindness and My Sisters About 7 years ago, my sister and a friend set out to make someones day. They decided to randomly give a gift of new matching outfits to a friend with twin boys.

Everyone is probably thinking, “Why would you do that right before the holidays?” Well, that is the perfect reason to join an accountability group! I think that eating good food and adding on some holiday weight should not be mutually exclusive.

What holiday weight? This is the biggest thing that I want to prevent. Since I have been transforming my life in ..read more
