I’m on Day 11 of using natural deodorant. I’m starting to stink! The internet google searches stated that week 1 of natural deodorant would seem normal. However, in week 2, it said you would begin to stink. That is what happened – I started to stink. On day 8, I was walking around a town…

Healthy Living #1 – Switching to Natural Deodorant
Lately, I have been trying to find ways to detox and be healthier. One thing that’s been on my mind is deodorant and antiperspirant. I have been especially worried about aluminum and what it could be doing to my health. For many years, I’ve been using Dove Dry Spray Antiperspirant. That stuff works. This is…
Skin Care: a Snapshot in Time! #2
Last year, I posted about skincare. I want to revisit this topic. Inflation has made skincare even more expensive, or you may not have as much money to spend on skincare because of increasing expenses. I want to share some suggestions for saving money and still looking good. That is all for now. Good luck….
Skin Care: a Snapshot in Time!
When I was 26, my mom introduced me to the 3-step Clinique skincare routine. Even then, I understood the importance of skincare. In this post, I’m going to share some of the products in my skin care cabinet right now. My goal is to have so many skincare products that I never feel like I…
Afterprey
I have seen Afterpay pop up all over the place lately. You can buy your $100 eye cream, and then you have 8 weeks to make payments on it. You don’t even need a credit check to sign up! They make money at least two ways: 1. When you miss a payment, they get a…

To combat my neck waddle and chin droop, I started doing facercize (face exercises). Facercize involves exercises that ideally strengthen your facial…
Make me up before you go go
I went to Nordstroms.com because I wanted to buy the Estee Lauder “Defend by Day, Detox by Night” collection. I purchased a face cleanser for $10 to bring me up to $45. That way, I could also get the free gift that also included a day and night face cream, mascara and several lipsticks. When I got…
Spa’ me the Details
Today I took a much needed mental health day. I had a few “use it or lose it” vacation days left, and I was overwhelmed by the number of errands on my to-do list that I couldn’t seem to find time to do. I’m proud to say that I accomplished the majority of them this…
On Maintenance
We have a gender imbalance in this country – Maintenance. No, not car maintenance or home maintenance. Boys have the upper hand in the repair department, and I hate it. I could take a class at a community college, improve my knowledge about fixing up my house, but I’m too lazy. I can’t fix things. Boys hammer things and…
