Rodan + Fields Review

May 13, 2015

Hello Lovelies. 

     Another product review for you today, featuring a few products from the Rodan + Fields Skin Care line. A friend of mine reached out to do a little collab, and I was kind of nervous to accept because I was afraid that I might not like it; and I would have hated writing a bad review. I have very high expectations for skin care and I hold a high obligation to tell the truth no matter what. I have the most sensitive skin ever, and I am very picky when it comes to testing new products. So I was very shocked by how quickly I instantly fell in love with R+F. I can usually tell if a product will work with my skin either immediately or by the next morning, and these passed the tests. 

      I tried three products: ENHANCEMENTS Micro-Dermabrasion Paste, REDEFINE Night Renewing Serum, and REDEFINE Lip Renewing Serum.  All are easy steps to add to your routine; and you can see good results from each one. 

     The ENHANCEMENTS Micro-Dermabrasion Paste is an excellent exfoliator for dry skin. I am sure you have all heard me on here complaining about my dry skin, well I can vouch for its claim to smooth rough skin. Its like I had brand new face of baby skin after using it. I am not even joking that it was like new skin. The packaging said to use in the morning, but I find that I like using rough exfoliators more so at night. I get redness so easily (as you can see in the pictures) and it stays too long for me to be able to apply makeup and leave. I am glad I chose to do it this way though, because I immediately followed it with the Renewing Serum and the results were amazing. The Paste went on so easily, easier than most exfoliating creams.  I can't describe it any better than their own description of a high glide formula. 

     The REDEFINE Night Renewing Serum was my favorite product of the three. It has a great feel to it that smoothed the rough treatment that I had just given it. The first two ingredients are silicone, so that explains the extremely smoothing effect. Don't be alarmed by that though, that is actually a good thing. Silicone is actually known to offset flakiness and dryness caused by some other drying effects in cleansers. I didn't even have to use a moisturizer after this. The combo worked well. The next day I woke up to a wonderful glow. 

     I finished off the routine with the REDEFINE Lip Renewing Serum. Honestly, from the one capsule I feel a difference two days later. It claims to reduce wrinkles and helps lips to retain their moisturization factor. I can not speak for the wrinkle correcting (I do not have that issue yet) but I can for the moisture. Wow. I still do not feel it is necessary to put on lip balm. I have used the Signature Club A Full, Fuller, Fullest capsules for a while now, and though these R+F Capsules don't claim to be plumping, I could definitely see a similar effect when I used it. My lips definitely felt fuller the next day, not quite as extreme as the SCA capsules; but plumping is not their purpose. The moisturization definitely lasted longer than the SCA capsules though. 

     I fully recommend any of these products. You won't be disappointed in any of them. Click here for a full list of  products from Rodan + Fields.  The smell wasn't harsh in any of the products. None of them caused a reaction (thank the Lord) or caused blemishes or breakouts to appear. I just literally can not wait to try more once I finish up with my current products. It is a tad on the pricy side for the unknowing eye, but truth be told, the prices really are not that bad compared to some other prestige brands. Skin care is not something that I mind splurging on. We are only given one face and it is up to us how we treat it. Makeup will not conceal skin neglection forever. Take care of your you girls!

A Non-Typical Mother's Day Message

May 10, 2015

     Happy Mother's Day to all of you blessed moms out there, I hope your day is beyond special. I want to leave a message to those of you who haven't always enjoyed or anticipated the coming of this day. For so long, this was me.  For me, Mother's day has always been a confusing day. One filled with loss and hurt and pain and each year brought a new one, but I am so grateful for a new outlook.  

     Sometimes, mothers are not always what we think they should be or what we would want for ourselves. In fact, sometimes they are quite the opposite. Some do not even have mothers, or some do have them but they don't deserve the title. Some even had fabulous mothers that were robbed from them too early. For any of these topics (and many more), I tell you, today is still a good day. 

    Make today about forgiveness and a new love. Today is about finding the place in our hearts and spirits to forgive. We may need to forgive our mothers or step mothers for how we feel that they have wronged us. Or an even bigger issue, we may need to forgive God. We do not always see his plan in taking the precious woman that we loved. It may be hard, but oh what a wonderful day when we forgive. Ultimately, they are in such a better place,  probably getting to eat all the chocolate and donuts they want with no repercussions. Ha.  We can rejoice to him for giving them everything thing that this world could not; more than we could ever even fathom. I have learned that I can not be angry for losing my loved ones because to do so would be a selfish thing. I am confident that the ones we lost got a most glorious inheritance, so how can I ever be angry about that? Can you imagine the beauty that they receive on this Mothers Day? I mean, I'm sure she is missing all the mothers day jewelry, flowers, and candy that they got every year? Right? Hardly. 

     Growing up yearning for a mother's love is so tough. I know. No one is there to comfort you or love you in normal daily trials. It is tough, but not impossible. Use the loss and hurt that this day could bring as empowerment and encouragement. If you lost a loved mother, remember her today and rejoice the life that she had and now her spirit. Think on all of her funny moments and laugh, because she is laughing and loving now. If you were always without, or worse, would have been better off if you were without, learn from it. Grow to be a mother that defies everything that happened to you. Use your pain to be a better mom. And lastly, if you have a Mother, cherish and respect her as deeply as you can. There are so many people out there that have longed and begged for what you have. So many of us would have loved to have bought chocolate for a mom every year. Happy Mother's Day. 

     Above are some beautiful photos of significant mothers that have had an influence on my life.  Some were lost too soon, some were not what I expected, and some were absolutely perfect. I have a love for you all. I cherish your laughs and smiles and memories past and to come. 

“Can a woman forget her nursing child, that she should have no compassion on the son of her womb? Even these may forget, yet I will not forget you.”
— Isaiah 49:15

Mmm-mum and Daa-dee. ❤️
This is the face of being caught where you aren’t suppose to be. 😅 😂 Half smile/smirk, half nervous/scared. 🤣
It may be blurry but it’s still pretty precious. She was laughing and wiggling to much to take pics. Haha
Best quarantine buddy ever.
My mind was shook when I learned something that I have believed most of my life was wrong.

From the show The Big Comfy Couch, the clowns name is Loonette not Luna like I always thought. I’ve always sang “It’s Luna and Molly”
Good thing I have such a sweet isolation partner. She must think the world is so small. I wonder what she will think when she gets to experience life outside of our home again. .
