Easy Tips to Tweak Your Skincare Routine for Summer

Winter can wreak havoc on your skin making it parched and dry, but summer is the worst season for your skin. The wind, sun, and water can all damage your skin and cause issues you normally don’t have. Extreme sweating can clog your pores and cause major breakouts. The sun has harsher UV rays which can cause sunburns and sun damage. The salt from the ocean can dehydrate your skin and cause flaking or even breaks in the skin. As if that is not enough, oil from sweat can cause your makeup to run or ... Read More

How to Have a Beautiful Flower Garden

Creating a beautiful flower garden can be very satisfying, but it does take a lot of hard work and determination to accomplish. You will need to research different types of flowers and the type of conditions they grow best in. You will also need to put in some hard work, dedication, and sweat. But the amount of effort you put into your flower garden will be returned several times over in the amount of enjoyment and pleasure you will receive from your flower garden.

How to Perform a Spa Quality Facial at Home

I love facials. I love being pampered and how great my face feels afterwards. I find them super relaxing when I can get one.

You can do one at home and it is a great way to unwind after a stressful day. There are plenty of ways to get the spa treatment and I'm sharing some tips to make your spa day ... Read More

2021–A New Start

Goodbye 2020

2021 has been warm (a bit too warm for me--I'm not overly a summer person!) in the Bay of Plenty. I didn't stay up to see the end of 2020--I held it to its word that the year would see itself out. Saying 2020 was hard is inadequate and I wish I had something inspirational to expound on. 2019 ended on a strange note for me.

Even if the water is too cold, ... Read More
