I’m turning into a healthy living nut and I may go out of my way to do some things that others may view as crazy and inconvenient, but the health of my family is oh so important and the positive results received from the craziness are for more rewarding than shortcuts. Some of the healthy choices we make are simple and less over the top, like limiting fast food stops and cooking from scratch, and avoiding cheap filler foods. While I don’t make a habit out of eating frozen meals on a regular, I love Healthy Choice meals. Although they [...]

I have a love/hate relationship with my skin. I’ve had sensitive skin since I was a little girl. I’ve been allergic to Nickel, mosquitoes (my bites swell bad), and grass (or what it’s treated with) for as long as I can remember. As I got older, I became prone to heat rash. As a teen I had very mild face breakouts, nothing bad. Around 18, I started getting bacne and I started to randomly break out in hives around my eyes, cheeks and neck. The hives all started after wearing a new jacket with a wool collar. Since then, I [...]

This year, I am rebuilding my nail polish collection, making sure that I only buy colors that are 3-free (free of formaldehyde, DBP, and toluene). I’ve been ordering a lot of my colors online because it’s easier to do that than blindly shopping in the cosmetics section without being completely sure of what’s in my nail polish. When I found out that Essie (a salon quality 3-free brand) nail colors were hitting Walmart stores this month, I was so excited. Essie actually sent me some sample colors and I absolutely love them. The colors I received were (Thumb & Ring [...]
