There are so many facial brushes on the market right now – those that promise to reduce fine lines and wrinkles, unclog your pores, exfoliate like nothing else, you get the idea. I’ve tried a few of them over the years and found out they’re not all created equally. I wanted to share some insight in case you’re in the market for one.
Two words no pregnant girl wants to hear: stretch marks. I feel like I spent my whole pregnancy oiled up like a turkey trying to avoid them. That might be a bit of an exaggeration but I definitely went through enough bottles to justify that! I know it’s mostly genetics, but I didn’t get any stretch marks so I wanted to share what worked for me.
Last Monday I popped into Facial Works for a little pampering. I’m taking all I can get right now because I know in a few weeks I won’t have this kind of time anymore! Facial Works is a cool spot with a facial bar and services starting at only $50. It’s kind of like the Dry Bar for facials. The location is so cute and has an open room setting which would be perfect for a group of girlfriends.
Let’s talk hair!
Last week I was lucky enough to spend the day at Sassoon Salon in Costa Mesa. When it comes to my hair I’m pretty low maintenance, but I was due for a refresh. I’ve had long hair most of my life (aside from a few unfortunate haircuts) and plan on keeping it that way for now, but I’d been feeling blah about it lately. After a day being pampered at Sassoon I’m feeling much better and my hair is looking so much healthier, shinier and more natural.
