Beautiful Food, Travel & Design
Mother’s Day is coming up quick and I have some great gift ideas for any mom, grandma, or just someone special in your life. You’ll find the perfect products for a little pampering, gifts for the mom who craves adventure, and so much more! Many also have an eco-friendly component so you can feel good about minimizing the environmental impact of your gift. If you tend to be a last minute gift giver, a few are even available on Amazon prime or via express shipping.

This year let’s all agree to move beyond the traditional Valentine’s Day present of chocolates and flowers. I’m all for giving and receiving something practical for Valentine’s day instead. If you’re scratching your head, don’t worry! I’ve done the legwork for you with my annual Valentine’s Day Gift Guide! I’ve tested each product personally and can 100% vouch for them and the companies behind them. Many have an eco-friendly or natural ingredient spin so you can feel about supporting the company behind them. A few are even on sale or have a discount offered if you sign up for their mailing list.

We’re officially gearing up for the holidays! Even though they look different this year, one thing is the same – I’ll be running all of my holiday errands at Westlake Shopping Center in Daly City.
Even though we live in San Francisco, Westlake Shopping Center is less than 15 minutes from our house! We actually prefer shopping there because everything is in one place and it’s easy to find parking. They have a huge variety of restaurants and cafes within the shopping center which makes running errands surprisingly enjoyable! I’m much happier crossing things off my To-Do list when I’m well-caffeinated and have a belly full of pastries.
2020. Has there ever been a time when we needed the holiday spirit more? We aren’t going home for the holidays for the first time in eight years, so gifts have taken an even more central role for us.
Everything on this guide has been personally used and tested by my husband and me. I’ve focused on items that are high quality and versatile; that won’t get tossed after the holidays are over. Many of the products have a social or environmentally-friendly component, from plastic-free shipping to empowering artisans in Guatemala. You’ll find something below that is sure to spark joy for everyone on your list. In the spirit of 2020, all of the items can be purchased online and shipped directly to your loved one, letting them know that you’re thinking of them despite being physically apart.

A review of the new Rodan + Fields REDEFINE Regimen with products that target anti-aging. What is included and do the products really work?
Skincare company Rodan + Fields just released their new and improved anti-aging REDEFINE Regimen. I was excited to try this new collection of skincare products that target the visible signs of aging – my number one skincare concern. I may not be able to turn back the clock, but I want products that make it look like I can! Rodan + Fields has developed the REDEFINE Regimen to improve the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines and make skin visibly firmer. I was able to try the regimen for two months to see if the products live up to their claims.

How do you choose the best skincare routine? It’s about picking the right ingredients for your skin concern and finding formulations that work together to produce amazing results!
Skin is not just a layer that protects us from the outside world or something to keep our insides in. It is a complex organ with many important jobs including temperature control, vitamin production, and protection from infections – just to name a few! This complexity means there is a lot that can go wrong. From dark spots and discoloration, fine lines and wrinkles, to dullness, acne, and sensitivity – we all struggle with something.
Luckily, we don’t just have to just accept these imperfections in our skin. A good skincare regimen can improve our skin’s appearance and help with all of these common conditions…. Read More »
