Best Curling Iron That Won’t Damage Hair

January 7, 2024 Glamour

In the ever-evolving realm of hair styling, the quest for the ideal curling iron without heat damage often resembles a search for the Holy Grail. But fear not–I’ve discovered a true gem: clampless, cone barrel curling irons.  This ingenious tool effortlessly crafts uneven, loose waves—think beachy vibes and natural curls instead of the hollywood wave […]

The 2 Ingredient Sugar Wax Recipe I Use Regularly

January 5, 2024 Glamour

I’ve always preferred going out to a waxing salon to get my body hair pulled. Why suffer at home when you can get someone else to do your personal care? If you aren’t sure if it’s for you, I wrote about the differences between sugar wax and hard wax here.   Disclaimer: I’m not a […]

How to use a microneedling pen at home

January 2, 2024 Glamour

I think it’s important to write a disclaimer first: I wrote this originally for my friend because I wanted to share my recipe for successful microneedling treatments. I am not a doctor, but had sought care (professional care) to even out and reduce my pox scars (similar to the ice pick scars you see with […]

Stocking Stuffer Ideas for Women Made Easy

December 19, 2023 Glamour, Nourishment

Sometimes I wish I could stuff my own stocking, but since I can’t, I’ll settle for strategically asking my husband to check my grammar on this post. Just kidding–he’s actually pretty good at stockings. If I’m being honest, we usually stuff each other’s stockings…and our own. I don’t know how it happens every year, but […]

Thinking about Tape-in extensions? Read this first.

September 25, 2023 Glamour

After years of struggling with my fine hair type and feeling self-conscious about my natural hair lacking that certain je ne sais quoi that some lucky ladies are born with, I started to use extensions and I never looked back. My journey started with those hair scrunchies that make you look like you have a […]

How I got rid of uneven skin texture and large pores

August 27, 2023 Glamour

Skincare is a journey that changes direction every decade! Spoiler: The products you used in your teens are probably not doing anything for you now. Finding a new skin care routine isn’t necessarily the solution. In my most recent experience, resetting my skin with minimal skincare products for my skin type and letting it rest […]

These gentle plant rituals simply work better in our family (no flares, no fog, no regrets).

I find there’s too many people suffering from poorly fit bras. 😤 They ride up, stab you, and make your boobs look like they’re plotting an escape. Say NO to torture devices and YES to Eby’s wire-free, lift-like-magic bras. Your wardrobe deserves better. See my stories for my faves. #brareview #bra #wirelessbra #brafitting

Postpartum and pregnancy skincare ▶️ Boy was my skin reactive while I was pregnant. I had to go beyond the recommended exclusion list! If you have #sensitiveskin this list is for you too—I wish I had paid attention to pregnancy skincare lists before I was pregnant because it eliminated a lot of things I was sensitive to. Just wrote about the @ziipbeauty microcurrent tool that I think is finally getting me my best skin yet. Saving my skin while not using retinol. See my stories for links! #pregnancyskincare #postpartumjourney #pregnancybeyond #pregnant

Pesto Tortellini with Caramelized Peaches! 🍑 
Tomatoes, you’re not invited to my @taste_republic pasta party! 🍅 Over the past couple years I’ve been moving away from putting tomatoes on everything and this recipe did not disappoint. This is a one skillet recipe you can make in under 30 minutes. I put some alternative ideas (pumpkin!) to peaches on the recipe blog post (bio link). 
.
With pasta this good, telling anyone my cheese tortelloni was gluten-free and certified plant-based was a need-to-know basis. That way, all my Vegan and meat-loving friends could both enjoy with zero extra work on my part. It’s so good, it’ll make you forget all about tomatoes and gluten!💃 #wholefoods #tasterepublicatwholefoods #tasterepublic #notomatoes #glutenfreerecipes #easyrecipes #healthyish #easydinner #asmr #eat

Baby girl photobomb 💣 3 months in and I’m still amazed that we get to participate in the making of a life. Before this year, we were always waiting for the perfect time to have kids. Now I know, perfect doesn’t exist in these intangibles. It’s my little girl that’s perfect. How wonderful life is now you’re in the world. #mommyandme #newmom

I love you already and I haven’t even met you. Your sweet gentle spirit gets me through the roughest morning sickness, aches, and stretching in ways I never knew my body could go. Yet every time you move you remind me of God’s goodness that you are being knitted together fearfully and wonderfully.  What a gift it is that I get to secretly bond with you for months before seeing your sweet face. Can’t wait to meet you my little miracle. #babygirl set to make her debut 3-14-23

We explored Los Angeles with @gocity and WOW! am I amazed at the big ticket items included in our passes. So much fun! We went on a Warner Bros. studio tour and hopped across the street to Universal and did their tour in the amusement park as well. Downtown, we had a blast exploring Hollywood and Highland, the Walk of Fame, Madame Tussaud’s, the Chinese Theatre… Six Flags was included too. #gocity gave us each things we loved to do. If you haven’t been to Los Angeles before, don’t forget to save some time to shop Melrose and eat at @crossroadskitchen for a best kept LA secret. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ #gocitypartner

I never would've believed one tool could help me even my skin tone, help with my rosacea, get rid of hormonal acne and wrinkles, and even help me with muscle pain. WHAT!?! WHERE HAS THIS BEEN ALL MY LIFE. I'm telling you all about How I use this amazing tool on my site. Or @shop.ltk #liketkit #ltk

Where my Moulin Rouge lovers at? I had such a great anniversary celebration at the Vibiana #revivetheshow last night. Still trying to figure out how Chef Neal Fraser created melt-in-your-mouth sous vide filet mignon texture while still tasting charbroiled. So good I need a lesson so I can make it at home! 😋 If you’re in #losangeles get 20% off your tickets using code REVIVESOCIAL

I went swimming in the ocean, but when I left, the ocean didn’t say goodbye. It just waved. 
🌊🌊🌊
Really enjoyed a nice long social media break, but it’s given me the opportunity to really live! I’d love to know one good, glass-half-full thing you guys did that you wouldn’t have done if we didn’t go through a pandemic. For me, it was going to the Maldives. Never woulda happened if we didn’t have the pandemic. Read about my trip and the resort on www.thevanillaplum.com
