This is a sponsored conversation written by me on behalf of AmLactin. The opinions and text are all mine. Before I met my husband, I had never heard of Keratosis Pilaris.

While I'm not much of a DIYer, I've recently learned how easy it is to make your own homemade scrub. We actually use a ton of store brought scrubs in our house. I actually keep some out but some in the shower - my boys get tough dry skin patches and nothing helps clean and soften a tough patch of skin (like their elbows) than a good scrub.

They're based out of the UK but US folks can buy their line exclusively at Target. This is what my guys have been using - the Cucumber 2-in-1 Shampoo and Body Wash ($4.99 at Target.com). … [Read more...]
You all know the 2 minute brushing rule, right? We are SO bad about it. I try and get the kids to continue to brush but they complain it's sooooo long and honestly, 2 minutes does feel long when you are brushing! Firefly Toothbrushes offer a fun answer to keeping your kids engaged for the full 2 minutes. These brushes light up - green, then … [Read more...]
A couple of weeks ago, when I was up in NYC for New York Fashion Week, I was lucky enough to get a chance to have my hair done backstage. The hair stylist used the Sarah Potempa Beachwaver on me - a curling iron that is CRAZY easy to use for quick and perfect beach waves. Â It's $199.99 and I gotta be honest, if I had heard about a $200 curling … [Read more...]
It's always a rush in my house these days. We're running to the bus. Or karate. Or I have two hours to get to the grocery store, write 3 posts and solve world peace. Because I'm crimped for time, I'm all about the time saver. I've been using and loving this new product from Vaseline - Vaseline's Spray & Go Moisturizer. Now I know … [Read more...]
Last week, I was picked up for a fun evening out for P&G's Have You Tried This Yet? campaign. Last year I had taken five friends to be a part of this group and we went to a cooking class in Philadelphia. This time, Colleen was hosting and she invited me and some of her friends to a local spa for hair, make-up and massages! Twist my arm, right?! … [Read more...]
