5 Essential Skincare Must Haves When Your in the Sun

I partnered with CeraVe for this post.

I wish I had someone explain the importance of a good skincare routine and sun protection to me when I was a teenager. Sure I did the basics like making sure I washed my face (almost) every day to get my makeup off. But let’s be honest, there were plenty of times I went to bed with my makeup still in place. As I’ve gotten older, I’ve put much more emphasis on my skincare routine to make sure I’m taking the best care of my skin and protecting it from the harmful rays of the sun. Sun protection is key when you want to shield your skin from the harmful effects of the sun and prevent long-term effects of sun damage like wrinkles and premature aging.  These are my 5 essential skin care must haves for anytime I plan to be in the sun [Read more…] about 5 Essential Skincare Must Haves When Your in the Sun

5 Must Have Travel Toiletry Essentials

This post, 5 Must Have Travel Toiletry Essentials, is a sponsored post in partnership with Steripod. 

It’s no secret I love to travel. Exploring new places with my kids ranks at the top of my to-do list. Earlier this year, I set a goal to travel as much as we can, especially while the kids are young and even if it’s only for a few days. We’ve done a great job sticking to our monthly travel plan and we have some exciting things planned for the second half of the year including a trip to the Jersey Shore for a week.  While I’ve become quite the pro at packing our clothes and only bringing the essentials (which is a big step for the girl who brought eight, yes eight suitcases on a trip a few years ago), one part of packing that I still overlook is packing my toiletry bag. I’m always tweaking the contents and finding new things that I don’t know how I traveled without before, like Steripod.  [Read more…] about 5 Must Have Travel Toiletry Essentials

When it comes to sleep, I’ve always been a light sleeper. I know how important a good night’s sleep is and I do my best to make sure my body gets that every day. As with everything, some days are easier than others. We’re pretty active during the day whether we’re on a trip exploring or just me chasing the kids around all day and minor aches and pains have a way of finding me just when I’m ready to settle down for the night. To help ensure I still get that good night’s sleep, I use my homemade lavender bath salts and these easy tips for a better night’s sleep.

Protect Your Kids with these Sun Safety Tips and learn to #PlaySafeInTheSun

Teaching my kids the importance of sun safety is something I don’t take lightly. I’ll be the first to admit, I didn’t take care of my skin as well as I should have, especially in my early twenties. Once I became a mom, that instantly changed. Now we use sunscreen all the time. Anytime we are outside, whether we’re spending the day at the beach or just an afternoon in the yard playing, sunscreen is a must. They’re so used to applying sunscreen before we go out that if I forget for some reason, they are quick to remind me. It’s just become second nature for them. These sun safety tips will help protect your kid’s skin all year long.
