When we moved into this house 4 years ago, it was

When we moved into this house 4 years ago, it was the 9th move Mike and I made in our now 20 years together. It’s the 3rd house Harper has lived in. Although I was thrilled to be in our chosen neighborhood, I wasn’t thrilled about the house and I didn’t have a vision for it because I was overwhelmed with the traditional style of the previous owner.

This sitting room has gone from my least favorite room in the house to my most favorite. I didn’t want anything formal, so when I saw these swinging chairs I knew they would anchor the space then the rest was easy.

There isn’t a day that goes by when that room isn’t used. I’m so happy I took the chance on the chairs and went with something non-traditional that just made me happy.

Swipe to see the before..

@onekind.us just gets it. They have created a well-edited line of clean skincare that’s thoughtful, affordable, and has a cool aesthetic that looks great on your shelf.

It’s the creation of siblings Madison and Matt who spent 10 years crafting skin solutions to check all the boxes - clean, USA made, vegan, and free of all synthetics.

I received their Pore-fectionist Refining Facial mask a while back and was so taken with it that it quickly became my go-to mask that I started using at least once a week. It’s an AHA/BHA and pink clay mask that’s meant to detox grown up skin that maybe has occasional breakouts and some fine lines for brighter and better skin. It isn’t a typical clay mask that hardens or feels tight and its light pink hue exfoliates, purifies, and brightens instantly. It’s a $24 mask that works as well as any twice its price.

I used small sample of the Dream Cream Nighttime Moisturizer within weeks. Its easy texture is like a drink of water for my skin, light and invisible with squalene, rosehip oil, chamomile, and aloe vera. If you’re selective about how a moisturizer works, smells, feels, or its ingredients, I’m sure this is one you’d adore.

Thank you for the samples and intro to the line @onekind.us you’ll be seeing more of me soon!

On the blog today- I’ve put together a 🏕 camping list for essentials that we’ve found really helpful to make life easier on the road.

For non-campers, I have our vary favorite ☀️ sunscreens (including a daily one I’m wearing now), along with a must-have for 🐶 dog owners to keep their paws clean after walks. We now have one for the RV and our house!

Microneedling has been, without a doubt, the biggest game changer for my skin in the last 10 years. It’s something I do faithfully almost every night as part of my regular routine. It has helped with discoloration and scaring from breakouts which tends to stick around forever on my fair skin. It’s also proven to help with fine lines, oiliness, and overall skin texture. I’ve moved from traditional rollers to the Banisher from @banishacnescars recently which is more targeted and easier to use. I also find it’s more comfortable so I can apply firmer pressure to the areas I’m really working on like a scar or pigment issue, and its 24k gold plated titanium bristles are safe, sturdy, and easy to clean.

The science behind needling is clear and it works much the same way that a laser does. It creates a micro-wound that triggers the body’s natural response to heal, which in turn, creates new healthy skin. After rolling, I always use their Vitamin C Banish Oil which penetrates the skin deeper thanks to the micro channels created from the Banisher.

Since deciding to homeschool our girls this year,

Since deciding to homeschool our girls this year, I’m asked quite a bit about our experience. On the blog today, I’m breaking down how it’s really going, what it’s like to learn from the RV when we travel, and our plans for next year.

I’m sure you’ve heard by now the buzz on CBD.

I’m sure you’ve heard by now the buzz on CBD. Cannabidiol aka CBD, is a naturally-occurring chemical compound found in marajuana and hemp plants. CBD and THC make up the two main ingredients in cannabis. THC is what gives you a high, while CBD does not. CBD has tons of proven health benefits and is legal in every state. I’ve used CBD for years on and off for anxiety.

When it comes to skincare, CBD has been shown to aid skin affected by eczema, psoriasis, and acne. It also gives big benefits with its anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and overall healing properties. Since CBD in skincare is unregulated, it’s so important to choose a reputable company to make sure that what you’re receiving is the real deal.

Each bottle of FACAIL GLOW OIL #8 from Colorado company @eossibeauty produces contains 1000 mg of CBD and is tested by a third party lab to ensure quality. This includes the type of cannabinoids used, and whether it contains any pesticides, heavy metals, or microbials. It’s an incredibly expensive and time-consuming process; Eossi takes quality and transparency very seriously.

CBD aside, this serum contains some of my very favorite skin-loving ingredients. It’s made using a base of Moroccan and Grapeseed Oils, Vitamin E, Rosehip, and of course their broad spectrum CBD oil.

The serum is wonderfully rich with an incredible feel so just a few drops go a long way. It gives instant hydration and a glass-like feeling to my thirsty (and notoriously reactive) skin. It does what it says- it gives a glow to my skin- so much so that I’ll add a few extra drops to my cheekbones over makeup for a highlight ✨that looks natural and hits the light so beautifully. Also of note, its sexy warm scent from Frankincense, Myrrh, and Jasmine that begs to be used on my neck and décolleté just to carry that scent with me all day long.

We will rebuild, reconcile and recover and every

We will rebuild, reconcile and recover

and every known nook of our nation and

every corner called our country,

our people diverse and beautiful will emerge,

battered and beautiful

When day comes we step out of the shade,

aflame and unafraid

The new dawn blooms as we free it

For there is always light,

if only we're brave enough to see it

You can really accomplish some big changes in you

You can really accomplish some big changes in your skin at home these days thanks to devices like @nira_skin

It’s an FDA cleared device that’s clinically proven to reduce fine lines and wrinkles around your eyes in just 2 minutes a day.

Lasers naturally renew collagen production to plump and smooth skin and this handheld piece can actually do what a pro laser can. It has 5 settings depending on which strength you prefer. I use the highest setting to get the most out of the treatment and I can feel it working which I really like. It feels like the ‘rubber band snap’ they talk about when receiving IPL. Its a little pulse of heat that doesn’t cause redness or irritation, but you can definitely feel it.

I store mine by my toothbrush so I remember to use it twice a day. Give it some time to see results and take photos so you can see it work. Over time, the lines will improve. The results aren’t immediate like with Botox, but it does work and it’s a natural alternative (and a cheaper one over time) to an injectable.

I’ve been using this device for about 6 months. I really wanted to get an understanding about how it worked before talking about it. I’ve had so many laser treatments, peels, and Botox over the years, so I’m really selective about what I bring into my daily routine. I’m very impressed in NIRA’s quality and results, and have been recommending it to friends who don’t want to go the 💉 route or those who need to level up when eye creams alone aren’t doing the trick.
