Imagine Elvie’s less chic cousin, and you get the Perifit breast pump. Those of you who have been reading the blog for a few years know my love-hate relationship with the OG Elvie. It was the first wearable breast pump I ever owned and truly an innovator in the breast pump space. While not a…

Stuff I’ve Tried: New Beauty Favorites
If you have been reading my blog long enough then you know that I don’t like to overly complicate my beauty routine and have been using mostly the same products for several years. I swear by things like the Clinique Gel Moisturizer, Purpose Gentle Cleansing Wash, and Neutrogena Anti-Wrinkle cream. Somehow, I’ve managed to age…

So it’s not surprising that the behemoth that is Apple wanted to find yet one more way to run your life. And here it is Apple Fitness+ designed to integrate with your Apple Watch…
Daily Face Routine: Mom Edition
Becoming a Mom is the most rewarding thing that I’ve ever done but for months I found myself neglecting myself in favor of making sure my son was getting as much attention as possible. While I’m sure he’s enjoyed having Mommy around to feed him (every two hours still) and provide him with hours of…
How Your Skin Changes in Your 30s and What to Do About It
So you just turned dirty 30 and you’re probably noticing some new things. I’ve previously written about how my body has changed since turning 30 (you can read that post here). Your thirties are an amazing time. I can officially say that now that I’m 32. While I may have been skinny in my 20s, in…
Review: The Ordinary by Deciem |The Abnormal Beauty Company
A few weeks ago, I was commiserating with one of my work girlfriends about how expensive beauty products were and how I kept buying things that just didn’t resolve any of my beauty issues. She mentioned that she had been hearing about this company called Deciem that offered an affordable skincare line called The Ordinary. I immediately…

With my size changing so much over the last several months, I’ve been a size 6, then a 4, then a 6 again, and now I think I’m a 4, I didn’t want to invest in new pieces that might not fit me in a couple of weeks. I remember signing up for Le Tote, a subscription…
Stuff I’ve Tried: Simplifying My Skincare Routine
A lot of bloggers might tell you about the 1400 products that they love to use. As someone who hates clutter and taking longer than 20 minutes in the bathroom I couldn’t justify anymore many of the products I had stowed away in my bathroom cabinet. A few months ago I decided to look at…
Review: Thred Up
After over a month of waiting my clean out bag was finally processed by the people at Thred Up. If you haven’t heard of Thred Up before it’s an online consignment shop. At first that seems like a brilliant idea. Yes, let’s digitize this endeavor of getting rid of your old clothes and making a little money…
Cold Brew at Home
I got hip to Cold Brew Coffee a little over a year ago when I tried it at The Seed, in Boca Raton, FL. Since I live in hot, muggy, blast furnace Florida I’m not a huge fan of piping hot coffee. Plus I have this tendency to burn my tongue on basically anything above 84…
