One of my favorite things about the new year (I know, it’s February 22nd….I’m a little late on this haha but still) is to re-evaluate every aspect of my life in an effort to improve every aspect of my life. My husband and I always set goals in the following areas: financial, spiritual, physical, mental, and emotional. But this year I am adding a new one in to the mix; beauty.
I realized after having my Evie girl that I have let a lot of my beauty routines go down the drain. Having a new babe is no joke! I found myself neglecting my beauty routines in order to take care of her. But what I didn’t realize is that there are so many things you can do to upgrade your beauty routine WITHOUT taking more time out of your day! Plus, mamas…it is so so so important to take care of yourself! I know that it’s hard and you feel like there is absolutely no time but I promise you will be a better mom and wife (or partner) if you do :).
Without further adieu, here are my 3 must have beauty upgrades of 2017!
1. Dove Advanced Care Antiperspirant
Why I love this product: Of course deodorant is important, everyone needs it but it really does matter which kind of deodorant you use and it took me a while to figure that out. My armpits used to itch so so bad. Every single time I would get in the shower and shave my armpits, I would have to scratch them for about 5 minutes afterwards. It would drive me crazy. After a while I decided that there must be a reason they itch so bad (go figure? haha) so the first thing I did was switch deodorants to Dove. I figured that may be why my armpits were dry and that’s why they itched. Well…I was right! About 4 days after the switch I didn’t itch anymore! My armpits were smooth and moisturized. Not only does Dove Advanced Care Antiperspirant offer 48 hours of odor and wetness protection but it also includes the added skincare benefits of Dove ¼ moisturizers and NutriumMoisture for softer, smoother underarms.
2.Vichy Aqualia Thermal Dynamic Hydration Rich Cream
Why I love this product: Okay this product has completely changed my skin game! I used to have to moisturize each night and each morning before I put my make up on (and I tried tons and tons and tons of products). But with Vichy’s Hydration Rich Cream I only put it on at night after I wash my face and in the morning it is STILL moisturized- even after my workout and another face washing. I am not kidding. I absolutely love it. I want every single person I know to be able to experience how amazing this product is. It provides 48 hours lasting hydration that sinks into your skin and leave it feeling soft, velvety, and oh so good! Right now you can get 20% off + free shipping (on all U.S orders) by entering in code BABBLE at checkout! This offer is good until 3/31/17. Click here to shop!
Why I love this product: This shampoo has been everything for my hair. It has been recommended by every hair stylist I have talked to. It has also made my extensions last months and months past what anyone says they will because it is 100% pure and good for your hair (extensions or not). I love the PureVolume Pureology but my second favorite would definitely be Hydrate Pureology (the slight tingling effect with this one is also AMAZING!). These shampoos are sulfate free and great for color treated hair!
