  • My brother and I are both olive complected and take after our dad’s French Canadian roots. Summers spent outdoors as a child meant we got embarrassingly tan! ☀️ When we were kids, I remember how often my fair-skinned mom was stopped by strangers and asked about our father’s race! It’s funny to see childhood pictures and realize just how polar opposite we looked from her. Fast forward decades later and here I am with my blonde hair, pale skin, blue-eyed child, and now I know exactly how she felt all those years! Genes are a crazy thing. 🤪This kid definitely takes after his dad. Maybe I’ll get the next one! 😂🤦🏻‍♀️
  • I’ve mentioned @leahlaniskincare on here a few times, focusing on each product from her “Bless box” that Tyler gifted to me. Today’s feature is her Bless Essential Oil!! When it comes to essential oils in diffusers, I enjoy them, but I’m more in it for the roll-ons. I love the idea of throwing a roller in my bag and having it handy for whatever I may face throughout my day! If you suffer from anxiety or panic attacks, roll-ons are a great place to start. I also don’t wear perfume; I’d much rather wear natural oils (and I’ve had many compliments about my oil “scent” while sitting in the dental chair!) 🥰 I’ve kept this bless oil in my beach tote because let me tell you: there is nothing more soothing than applying this to your decollate and wrists while sitting in the sand, with the sun and wind in your face, breathing in that summer air ...because that’s what this is - a small bottle with a big personality of ALOHA essence. 🌸 ⠀⠀⠀ Ingredients: Organic fractioned coconut oil and a proprietary blend of pure essential oils. ⠀⠀⠀ Smells like: citrus blossoms and sweet tansy, like if you put your nose in a flower and took a deep breath! ⠀⠀⠀ Overall: Leah mentions that “when you first apply bless, the scent will be quite strong” and I agree. I’m used to applying skincare and scents that are fruity like pineapple, coconut and strawberry, so this floral scent has taken some getting used to. Through my essential oil journey, I’ve noticed what a “rookie” my nose is when it comes to recognizing REAL scents. I can tell you there have been a lot of oils I didn’t like when starting out ...that I now love! This scent had to grow on me a little, but I truly think it comes down to introducing your nose to unfamiliar scents like you would your tastebuds!
  • How precious and happy are these smoothies from @alison__wu?! The smoothie base is banana, macadamia, hemp seed and water. The yellow layer is mango. The pink layer is dragonfruit, and the orange layer is goji. Topped with toasted coconut, bee pollen and chamomile flowers. WANT!!!!
  • Happy. Just in my bikini, barefooted, salt hair, in the golden sunshine, swimming, laughing, running, diving - that’s the way to live. 🌴☀️
  • When chickpeas and Cheeto puffs have a baby 👶🏼 they become Chickpea puffs!! We took these @hippeas_snacks to the beach with us this past Saturday! I’m the kind of person who believes snacks only add to the enjoyment of an activity (anyone else feel like a movie is better when a snack is involved!?🙋🏻‍♀️) ...so I always bring snacks with us to the beach! Cache and I loved the white cheddar chickpea puffs, and we saved the sriracha flavor for Dad! 🔥😛 ⠀⠀⠀ Ingredients: Non-GMO, free of dairy and gluten. Organic Chickpea Flour, Organic Rice Flour, Organic Sunflower Oil, Organic Tapioca Starch, Organic Seasoning [Degermed Corn Flour, Salt, Sugar, Onion Powder, Citric Acid, Garlic Powder, Lactic Acid, Canola Oil, Natural Flavor], Organic Pea Hull Fiber. The average potato chip has processed ingredients like corn meal, artificial coloring [yellow 6] and artificial flavors. ⠀⠀⠀ Tastes like: these have an airy crunch like Cheeto puffs only they’re packed with more protein, fiber and have all-natural ingredients 🙂 Nothing artificial! ⠀⠀⠀ Overall: I usually know I like a product when it makes it into my pantry. These will be something I buy and stock! You can find them on Thrive Market! And as you can see, Cache loves them (and this was not forced by any means 😂)
  • I’ve been seeing @youthtothepeople throughout the clean beauty community on IG and decided it was time to give their cold-pressed superfood skin mask a go! It definitely rehydrated my skin, and I could tell a difference after just one application. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Ingredients: kale, spinach, alfalfa, hyaluronic acid, vitamins C, E, and B5. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Smells like: I couldn’t put my finger on the scent, but I think that’s because it’s a barely-there smell. If you’re sensitive to smells, this is a good mask for you. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Benefits: Hyaluronic acid replenishes moisture. Vitamin C boosts your skin’s collagen production. Vitamin E helps regenerate new skin cells and lighten brown spots (which I have from acne breakouts)Vitamin B5 helps improve skin softness and elasticity. Free of parabens, sulfates, phthalates, dimethicone, animal testing, and mineral oil. 100% vegan ingredients. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ FYI: it is very hard to take a cute pic when you look like a goblin 😂 👿 Also, this @aquishair turban is e.v.e.r.y.t.h.i.n.g. If you’re the type to put your makeup on before drying your hair, you NEED this. And it has a little button at the nape of your neck so that after you twist it, you button it in the back to stay put! 😍 I got mine from Anthropologie. Enjoy your Sunday, lovelies!

  • COCONUT WHIPPED CREAM 🥥 // Guys, I am a sweets eater. I always have a hard time finding ways to curb my sweet tooth. Lately, we’ve been eating Hungry Root’s fabulous Black Bean Brownie Batter (don’t knock it til you’ve tried it - it’s amazing) and Chickpea Cookie Dough that will make your mouth water, but it can’t hurt to have another healthy alternative! Enter coconut whipped cream. 🥥 At night, when I just need a little nip of something sweet, I scoop some on a spoon and enjoy 🙂 I found this recipe in my @sweetlaurelbakery cookbook. Just 3 ingredients, guys. THREE. With all natural sugars!!! 😱 And it’s so delicious! As I was eating it, I couldn’t help but think of all the possibilities it could be used for, like atop a strawberry shortcake. Or as a fruit dip. Or straight on a spoon! 😍 I put the coconut cream on our breakfast waffles and topped them with mango, papaya, banana, kiwi, bee pollen, coconut flakes and goji berries. A little edible flowers never hurt (yes I ate them!) To my surprise, I offered some coconut whipped cream to Cache to see if he was on board with it, and he kept asking for more, more, more! I feel so excited to have found a healthy sweets alternative for those sugar cravings. 😜 Recipe in comments. Lmk if you end up making it. Thank me later!!!
