Good morning, friends!  Hope you are having a great week so far!  Today, I wanted to share some of the skincare items that have been a total lifesaver the last few months.  In addition to this skin-cracking weather, this lady has been battling some seriously dry skin due to the sheer amount of bottles that I wash on a daily basis.  My skin has also been totally out of whack since I had the lil’ lady and the extra strain with soap and hot water has not been ideal.

Have you ever tried the CeraVe product line?  I keep the makeup cloths right next to me at all times.  They are perfect for cleaning up spit ups that inevitably end up all the way down my arms!  I also use them at night when I only have about five seconds to complete my nightly routine because I refuse to waste one minute awake while the baby is sleeping!

The healing ointment is also something that I have added to my daily routine.  They come in twin packs so I keep one next to where I feed E and one in my purse.  While I sit and feed, I rub this ointment on my hands, with extra attention to the especially dry spots.

My bodywash and lotion game has also had to be refigured.  I now take two showers a day.  One during morning nap and one as soon as Matt gets home from work.  This was majorly drying out my skin until I introduced moisture-locking soap and then a moisture-rich lotion right after I get out of the shower.  I especially like the Jergens Ultra Healing and the Eucerin Skin Calming lotions!

This girl is definitely looking forward to some warmer temps–last weekend was such a tease! Until then, I am finding it critical to keep a variety of products on hand, literally.  All of these products can be found at Meijer and, as always, for a great deal!

What are you all doing to beat these skin-cracking temps?  Have you tried any of these products?   I would love to hear your tips!

Check back next week to see how I am preparing for Spring!!
Have a great day!
Erin

First Things First…

The first thing I do when I wake up is swish coconut oil. I know. Disgusting. I gagged like the first 15 times I did it, but you get used to it. You swish for 20 minutes and the health benefits are amazing. Read more on oil pulling here.

If you’re anything like me, you’re not ready for full makeup first thing in the morning. Whether we are talking weekday or weekend…I need just a wee bit of time to get going. So before I leave the house (usually around 6 am) or before entering the next room I do these simple things:

1. I always keep my beauty items stored in a to-go bag. I don’t know about you, but I like the snooze button. Why not be prepared by storing your items in this adorable cosmetic bag? You’ll notice I also have travel size versions of everything (I refill from the larger containers) so that I am able to throw everything in this bag easily.

2. I talked more about my elaborate hair routine here. Ha. Mostly, when it comes to my hair…I’m a ‘can I get away with one more day?’ kind of gal. WEN has done wonders for me and this replenishing mist gives your hair an instant lift!

3. This polish. Oh my. It’s like an instant manicure and it dries quick. A quick once-over every few days does the trick!

4. Bobby pins. I always have one in my hair. And they are all over the house. Matt loves it.

5. EOS Lip Balm. Heaven.

6. Simple Revitalizing Eye Roll-on. This thing has a metal ball on it that feels like a million bucks first thing in the morning.

7. I have fairly normal skin–except in the winter and then I feel like my face is literally flaking off–this Kiehl’s ultra facial moisturizer works all times of the year. It’s fabulous.

8. And of course my glasses are never off my face. They are my permanent accessory.

So what are your first thing in the morning beauty essentials? Anything you can’t live without?

Happy Tuesday!
Erin
