Kitsch

If you haven’t jumped on the satin pillowcase and scrunchie bandwagon, where have you been? Kitsch’s soft satin fabrication won’t agitate your hair while you sleep. Their pillowcases keep your hair in place so you wake up frizz-free and ready to go. Since switching to their pillowcase, I have been sleeping so nicely. One of the best parts of the pillowcases is that they do not absorb your Botalin Age Repair Eye Serum and other face creams. This way, as you sleep, the skincare products will settle into your skin, not your pillow. Kitsch has a huge line of products, click the link below to see their masks (the best eye sleeping mask MamatheFox has EVER used), towels, headbands and so much more.

bioClarity

bioClarity is not your average skincare line. They are proud to be vegan, non-toxic and plant-powered. What they mean by plant-powered is that they use plants, instead of chemicals, as the important and active ingredients. Floralux, their power player, is derived from chlorophyll. Floralux is an antioxidant complex, and it will visibly improve your skin. To get a feel for the product line I suggest trying their Ultimate Clear Skin Routine + Deep Hydration kit. This kit contains: Cleanse – a gentle foaming facial cleanser with the detoxifying and calming power of cucumber, green tea and chamomile. It has a subtle herbal scent and leaves your face feeling clean, smooth, and refreshed. Treat an acne treatment gel that combines exfoliating salicylic acid (2.0%), soothing oat kernel, and moisturizing squalane to battle blemishes without the burn. This milky, white formula packs a serious punch! Restore is a nutrient-packed green gel with Floralux, our exclusive blend made from chlorophyll, copper, and antioxidants, which helps soothe skin, reduce the appearance of redness, and battle breakouts.

Personal Style – Full Body Shaper Plus Size

The wholesale shapewear from Lover-Beauty was conceived from a single conviction: to allow all women to express their generous femininity with confidence, all through their shapewear desires.

From the latex waist trainers on hourglasswaist.com.au to shaping bodysuits, there are lots of options out there for women to enhance their figure and improve their confidence. To do this, sculpting lingerie is a formidable ally in helping women assert themselves without any complex laces or knots. Currently very trendy and sought after, this category of lingerie finds a place of honor in the feminine wardrobe right next to the designer lingerie that you bring out for special occasions. It discreetly changes everyday life. Shapewear features models that, as the word suggests, shape the silhouette, both in the day-to-day and for a formal evening.

If you want to join the shapewear movement, in this article I will show you the different models of it. In this way, you will display a perfect silhouette. The power of shapewear lingerie is yours!

What is shapewear?

Shaping lingerie visually reduces the waistline and erases imperfections. This is a type of slimming underwear which adheres to your body like a second skin, to slim down in the blink of an eye. But at the same time, shapewear sculpts and redraws your generous curves, giving a more harmonious effect to your figure.

What are the models of shapewear?

The new shapewear lines are evolving towards more and more practical forms. As well as covering, they offer the possibility of creating resolutely modern and feminine looks. Shapewear is available in several models that adapt to the morphologies of all women.

Shaping high-waisted panties

https://www.lover-beauty.com/product/skin-color-solid-color-three-clasps-panty-shaper-slimming-waist_i_144374.html

The very high waist shaping panty is the piece of shapewear lingerie to have in your wardrobe. Perfect for all figures, it goes up to the hips and the stomach. It hides the small bulges. The high-waisted shaping panty redraws the lower body to harmonize your figure and enhance the shape nicely. Its line discreetly refines the hips and accentuates the roundness of the buttocks.

Its sheathing effect? Flat stomach and hourglass figure guaranteed, along with buttocks raised and thing hips.

Shaping shorts

https://www.lover-beauty.com/product/black-queen-size-lace-hemline-tummy-control-butt-lifter-soft-touch_i_21499.html

More covering than panties, the shaping shorts embrace the body from below the breasts to mid-thighs. Its maximum coverage ensures a flawless slimming effect. This model is ideal for women with very generous shapes.

Its sheathing effect? Sculpted and slimmed hips, buttocks and thighs.

Other shapewear for lower body: briefs and thongs

Briefs and thongs also appear in models of shapewear lingerie. Unlike classic cuts, they are designed with a grippy, second-skin effect knit that is soft and fluid. They remain very comfortable to wear throughout the day.

Their shaping effect? Buttocks raised.

Shaping bra

https://www.lover-beauty.com/product/curvy-black-big-size-posture-corrector-bra-hooks-contouring-sensation_i_102208.html

The shaping bra instantly plumps the neckline. The volume of the breasts is rebalanced. It brings a nice rounded shape to the breast.

Its shaping effect? Firm and raised chest.

Shaping bodysuit

https://www.lover-beauty.com/product/super-sexy-black-adjustable-straps-plus-size-shape-bodysuit-tailored-shape_i_27425.html

The shaping bodysuit will do little wonders for your profile. It combines the benefits of a shaping bra and high waisted shaping panties. The shaping bodysuit is an asset of choice that will go incognito under your tight clothes.

Its shaping effect? Refined and shapely silhouette.

Full body shaper

The full body shapers plus size by Lover-Beauty achieve total control over the body. They shape the figure to the maximum, thanks to their high compression fabric. If the panties I mentioned above tend to bother you, this slimming combination is the perfect undergarment to wear under tight dresses. Its shape achieves a push up effect on the chest, thus achieving a much more beautiful neckline.

Full body shapers have never been so fashionable. They are ideal for your tightest dresses. They are invisible garments that will help you achieve that perfect figure at any special event. They are also the sexiest and most sophisticated control garments. You can have the silhouette of your dreams thanks to the full body shaper. In an instant, you will look slimmer, hide your bulges and shape your chest!

Full body shaper helps lift a woman’s hip, giving a youthful body at all times. In addition to refining the feminine silhouette, it also lifts everything that needs to be lifted, such as chest and posterior.

https://www.lover-beauty.com/product/skin-color-body-shaper-seamless-mesh-adjustable-strap-slimming-belly_i_156218.html

There are many models available. The most common one is a jumpsuit with adjustable shoulder straps that provide comfort and flexibility to the wearer.

Unexpected Ways to Look after Your Skin

Not everyone is lucky enough to have exceptional hair and skin. Stress, air pollution, air conditioning, regular make up, and other factors can play with your skin, causing dullness, flakiness, signs of ageing, and more. However, by following a few simple tips you can keep your skin healthy and glowing. We all know the basics of skincare – cleansing, toning, and moisturizing. However, there are some handy and effective ways to keep your skin healthy and improve its appearance that may surprise you.

Of course, there’s no one magical formula that will give you stunning, glowing skin. Everyone’s skin is different, and the same techniques don’t work equally well for everyone. However, certain products and practices can give you a radiant and flawless look. The best idea is to try out different ideas and see what works best for you.

With that in mind, read on to discover some surprising and unexpected things which may improve the health and appearance of your skin.

Try Natural Remedies

Sometimes the best remedies to promote gorgeous, healthy skin are not complex formulas, but rather pure natural remedies. For example, raw organic honey does wonders for our skin. If you suffer from acne breakouts, try a DIY honey face mask and let its natural benefits soak into your skin. You can visit the Gold Bee Nutrition website if you would like to purchase some high-quality raw organic honey.

Turmeric is another natural ingredient that is highly beneficial for the skin, having antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties that make it a suitable for all types of skin. There are a large range of essential oils and natural ingredients that can nourish your skin without exposing it to chemicals. These natural components also have the benefit of being hypoallergenic and gentle on your skin.

Natural ingredients will help you avoid skin rashes and irritation by keeping your skin’s microbiome healthy. The next natural remedy that we want to mention is natural goat milk. Goat milk has lactic acid that plays a key role in cleansing our skin by eliminating impurities. It is known to be rich in vitamins A, C, E which exfoliate dead skin layers and help you to reveal new cell layers underneath. You can start your journey with natural goat milk soaps and feel the change during a short time. Another benefit of using goat milk in your skincare process is that it will not harm your natural skin barrier.

Natural remedies that combat stress can also help you achieve a healthy skin look. After all stress hormones help to break your skin down faster. So even remedies like lavender or even magic mushrooms (you should consult this mushroom dosage chart first just to be safe with it) could help you achieve better skin. Another way to improve the appearance and health of your skin is with Portland NAD therapy. NAD is a coenzyme that works at the cellular level to repair damage throughout your body. IV NAD also detoxifies your body to give you a natural, radiant glow.

Topical CBD

Another very beneficial compound for the skin that may surprise you is CBD (cannabidiol). If in case you haven’t heard it before or already using it and need more CBD oil. This is a compound that is naturally found in the hemp plant that has a range of advantageous properties such as anti-inflammation. CBD is often taken by mouth as an oil or gummy, you can find some examples of such from Vibes CBD (https://vibescbd.co.uk/), though recently dedicated skincare products from cleansers to serums have come onto the market.

How effective is CBD? Though research is still in its early stages, studies indicate that skincare products containing CBD can be used for all skin types and for multiple applications, from preventing acne breakouts to counteracting itchy and dull skin, and may even prevent premature ageing.

As a relatively-new area, there is unfortunately a wide range when it comes to the quality and reliability of CBD products on the market today. Therefore, it is important to check out the best CBD oil UK reviews to buy the product that’s right for you.

Try out Exfoliant

Many people avoid exfoliants for a range of reasons. Some people are reluctant to use chemical-based exfoliants that may harm your skin, while others simply don’t have enough time to exfoliate regularly. However, you don’t have to avoid exfoliating completely.

Many brands offer mild exfoliators that won’t damage your skin and will remove dead skin cells to give you a fresh-looking and toned skin. You don’t have to exfoliate every day – in fact, this is not recommended. It is best to exfoliate with a gentle and mild exfoliator once or twice a week.

Apply the Thinnest Products First

Skincare products work best when they are applied at the right time and in the right way. For example, your skin absorbs the important ingredients of your skincare products best when they are applied in the correct order: from the thinnest to the thickest layer.

Every skincare routine should start with cleansing. That’s because moisturizer, anti-ageing serum, and other skin products are best applied to fresh skin. Then, make sure to apply the thinnest textures of skin care products first. This will help your skin absorb each layer properly, as the thickest layers take more time to penetrate the skin.

Never Sleep with the Makeup On

This is one of the most important things you can do for healthy and glowing skin, but one that is all too often overlooked. Furthermore, just removing your makeup isn’t enough. It is important to use high-quality cleansing and makeup removal products to completely cleanse your skin.

Skincare products will not properly work on your skin until you remove your makeup. Your skin needs to be completely clean before you apply moisturizer, serums and other products. So be sure to always apply a quality cleanser and remove fully remove your makeup before you go to bed. This will make your skin ready to absorb moisturizer and toner, and reap the full benefits of your skincare routine.

Treat Your Skin Gently

A comprehensive skincare routine is important, but this doesn’t mean you should overcare your skin with too many products or too much attention. If you have dryness or irritation, be mindful of that too. This can be due to retinol and other skincare ingredients in your beauty products. Maybe you could try bakuchiol, which would be gentler on your skin. But again, you might want to read a Bakuchiol Buyer’s Guide, before you consider this option, to know if it would suit your skin type. Scrubbing, poking, or prodding your skin too much can also be damaging your skin, and will have the opposite of your desired result.

There are a large amount of creams, toners, cleansers, moisturizers, and more available on the market today, so it can be easy to be overwhelmed with all the options. Invest in a non-foaming cleanser and high-quality moisturizer designed for your specific skin type, and you can’t go wrong!

How To Make Your Own Home Furnishings

Sewing is more than just clothing and accessories. You can make your interior furnishing with cotton and a needle. From pillowcases to tea towels, there are so many options when it comes to making your custom home furnishings. 

 

Today, you will discover three fun home furnishing ideas that will add a personal touch to your interior. 

Upgrade Your Bedding

Personalizing your bedding is a fun way to make your space feel like home. Whether you like minimal or wild designs, you can choose colors and patterns depending on your style. If you have never found the perfect bed sheet, then making your own might be the perfect solution. 

 

If you aren’t looking to make an entire bedspread yourself, you can always add designs to your current sheets. There are so many embroidery options to choose from when it comes to bedding. You could revamp your current duvet sheet or make your pillow. Depending on your sewing expertise level, you can add intricate designs or create an entirely new product. 

 

Add New Floor Mats

Who said that personalizing your home furnishings had to be small scale? Making your floor mats is a great way to add a personal touch to every room in the house. You could make a variety of mats for your own, from hard-wearing entrance mats to soft bathroom floor mats. 

 

For floor mat designs, you can opt for plain and simple or colorful and exciting. A fun idea would be to add your family name or fun quote to make it personal to the room. For example, a bathroom mat that reads “so fresh and clean” is a unique idea to make it washroom related. 

 

Mats are functional and versatile. So, if you make a mat that does not fit a space, it can always be used elsewhere. They are typically longer-lasting than other soft houseware, so you will get a lot for your time and money when making your floor mat. 

Decorate Your Towels

Towels are quite a problematic craft when sewing is involved. Instead of making your towels for the bathroom or kitchen, you could add your designs. Homes are much more personal when you add your home decor ideas to make them work for you, so why not add your ideas to your decor pieces. 

 

A fun idea for wash towels is to add names or initials. Most people have their own set of towels, so making them personalized is a lovely idea. 

You could sew in utensil designs or food outlines for kitchen towels to make them personable to the room they are in. The personalization of household furnishing usually depends on preference, but there are many ways to add a personal touch to everything. Additionally, in terms of home furnishings, you can shop online for sites that offer stylish home décor items according to the size of the room and walls.

 

Adding personal touches around your home can be as creative as you like. If you are a keen sewer or a beginner, personalizing or creating your own home accents is a great place to enhance your skills. With there being a wide range of household items to create or redesign, you can practice various techniques and fun ideas. 

 

Keeping on Top of Your Health as a Busy Parent

It’s hard! Being a working parent is difficult at the best of times. And when there’s a busy weekend of events, as well as housework, and trying to keep everybody healthy, you can feel that you are spreading yourself too thin. When you are trying to make everybody’s lives a priority, you start to reduce the importance of your own. As we get too busy in life, we can feel our health starts to decline. What does it take to keep on top of your health as a busy parent?

 

Don’t Skip the Regular Check-Ups!

You might think that you are fine in yourself, but when you get into the habit of skipping one eye appointment or hearing test, you may think that there’s no point in going back for a while, and what happens is that you’ve started to prioritize everybody else’s needs above your own, and before you know it, it’s been years since your last appointment! And it’s these regular appointments that will keep you on top of any potential health issues. Hearing problems can begin when we turn 40, and if we need to find a hearing specialist, we had better make sure that they are there when we need them. Regular check-ups are the best way to make sure that you are in fundamentally good health.

 

Putting a Plan in Place

You need to plan for absolutely everything! You even need to plan for when you sleep. When it comes to keeping your kids organized, you need to make sure that you are organized as well. When you plan ahead, even when it comes to meal planning, it saves you a lot of time, but it helps minimize stress! With a plan, you will always be able to keep ahead of any stresses. You can start to apply it to other areas of your life. By laying out your clothes the night before, this is one less thing for you to do when you wake up. And the time that you would normally spend laying your clothes out means you can either spend some quality time with the children or just relax for five minutes.

 

Stop Stressing About Sleep

In fact, you need to stop stressing altogether. If you worry about the sleep you’re missing out on, this becomes a vicious cycle. You then stay awake after night. Sometimes it’s better to plan your sleep a week in advance. There’s a really interesting podcast on the art of sleeping, and the link is here. But it’s not necessarily about the number of hours you sleep, but about the number of sleep cycles you complete. This is why you may wake up in the middle of the night feeling pretty refreshed! But it’s also about incorporating some rest period into your day, not necessarily napping. But actually powering down.

 

We can feel we’ve accumulated a few grey hairs as a parent. And the stress alone can make us anxious beyond our comprehension. But this is why you’ve got to keep on top of your health, but also now think of yourself as important as everyone else in the home. 

 

Be a productive blogger with these easy tips

Is 2021 the year you intend to smash those blogging goals? It’s not always easy to keep yourself motivated when you have dozens of other responsibilities to manage – blogging usually tends to take a backseat.

The truth is, that even when we do find the time to blog, it’s not always easy to remain focused and make the most of your creative time. Whether you’re checking your emails or scrolling social media, or your blog research takes a nosedive via YouTube, we’re all guilty of letting procrastination and other responsibilities get in the way of our progress.

If this sounds familiar, then you may want to read on and discover how you can be a productive blogger with these easy tips.

Keep your finances organized

There’s nothing more time consuming than writing invoice after invoice, trying to figure out your expenses and getting confused over your tax return. By investing in simple and user-friendly accounting software, like the simple invoice templates you can find on freshbooks.com, you’ll be able to handle all your accounts and finances with ease, freeing up more time to create content and less time worrying about making expensive mistakes. Your work is complicated enough so removing one of the most confusing and demanding elements from your to-do-list will certainly make your blogging life much simpler. This is precisely how businesses streamline their workload too and use purpose-made software such as EZLease to help them sort out their accounting issues that need doing – this boosts workflow and allows people to get on with other pressing matters sooner.

Set goals for every writing session

Sitting down to write for an hour or so is commendable, but you’re more likely to get more done and write with a stronger purpose if you set writing goals for each session. Whether you have a certain word count you want to reach, or you want to plan the basic structure of your next post, setting a goal allows you to remain focused and motivated throughout that crucial time in front of your laptop. Make the most of it. You consider taking help from a bolton seo company too, if that is where you are based. Such professionals, though search engine optimization, can revamp your blog using keywords that would increase the traffic coming to your website. If you’re finding it difficult to market your material or find it too burdensome, you may hire a content marketing agency like White Peak (to know more, go through https://whitepeak.io/seo-agency/) to help you manage your blog and acquire more traction with the help of SEO tools. However, your marketing work does not end there. To make sure the SEO tools that you have employed work well, it is advisable to monitor the progress or the contrary by doing an SEO audit. Check out this article for more information on how SEO auditing can help with marketing your blog.

Remove those procrastination triggers

As mentioned above, procrastination is a time thief, which means even extensive time spent on your blog could take a turn and be spent scrolling through social media, checking those emails, or chatting with friends. Take a stand against procrastination and remove those triggers. Whether you have to place your phone in the other room, close down all those open and completely irrelevant tabs or block the sites that cause you the most problems, take the steps needed to prevent yourself from undermining your own progress.

And finally, write down what needs to be done

Writing a blog post isn’t as simple as taking down your thoughts and completing a quick spelling and grammar check. When you consider your content, your proofreading, your SEO and affiliate links, sharing across various platforms and keeping your blog updated and engaging with readers and followers, it suddenly becomes very overwhelming.

Writing down a list of what needs to be done during each session and ticking things off as you go will help you make the most of your blogging periods and help you to become a better blogger. As someone who consistently posts high quality, reliable content you’re sure to draw in more readers and followers, which in turn means more success!

3 Ways to Make A Grieving Mother Feel Loved On Valentine’s Day

When you’ve lost a child, holidays are just harder. 

 

Even if Valentine’s Day was never your big holiday, you can’t help notice all the boxes of cards that hit the store, waiting to be handed out by children in classrooms all over the country. The candy hearts. The cute heart-themed baby and kid clothes. 

 

Holidays just make your arms feel more empty.

 

One of the hardest parts of holidays is to go through this grieving process and to feel like no one is thinking about you or cares.

 

This is why it’s so important to reach out to grieving mothers and offer support throughout the year, but especially on holidays. A small, kind gesture can go a long way. 

 

For Valentine’s Day this year, consider what you can do to show your loved one that you care.

1. Send a Meal

If you live close by, you can make your friend or loved one a meal, pick up dinner from her favorite restaurant, or take her out. She may have dinner plans on Valentine’s Day, so make sure to coordinate your plans with someone in the know. 

 

You can do lunch together or perhaps offer to pay for their dinner.

 

If you’re near or far, a gift card to a favorite restaurant works well, too; she’ll feel loved, and can use the card to go out with her significant other (if that’s not you) or to bring the food to them.

 

You can also buy a gift card to a meal subscription service like Hello, Fresh. If they want to use it for Valentine’s Day, make sure to give this gift in advance so they can order it online in time.

2. Give a Memento

You can find a lovely gift from this company that gears their service and merchandise specifically towards those that have lost a loved one. You’ll find jewelry for grieving mothers at laurelbox. Whether you choose a forget-me-not necklace or a raw birthstone charm, your loved one will know that you are aware she is suffering, and she is in your thoughts.

The Heart to Heart jewelry dish also makes a beautiful statement and provides a place for the grieving mother to keep her important memento. You will also have some memorial ideas which can make you happy and very emotional sometimes. 

3. Try a Weighted Blanket

You wish you could be by her side whenever she needs a hug. Why not send her a weighted blanket? Wonderful for people who are suffering from anxiety and unable to sleep, a weighted blanket may be able to help your loved one in her predicament. 

 

According to WebMD, “weighted blankets offer deep pressure stimulation, a form of touch pressure that feels like a firm hug, a massage, or swaddling. While research on weighted blankets is sparse, deep pressure stimulation has been found to calm adults and children with anxiety, autism, and attention difficulties, researchers say.”

 

Since loss can send anyone into a hyper state of anxiety, a weighted blanket might provide some comfort. Send the gift with a card that tells her this blanket is a hug from you whenever she needs one.

 

You may feel like you’re unsure of how to help your friend during this time, but you can help them by letting them know that you’re thinking of them.

What Home Goals Are You Working Towards?

In life, we all have goals. Even when we’re not so sure that we do, they’re often there. It’s easy to associate them with things like work, careers, or even your body – but you may even have goals for your and living space without really realizing it. Do you want to buy a house? Do you want to be able to create the dream living space? When that’s the case, you may feel as if you want to start working towards making these things happen. But maybe you’re not sure how? Or maybe you just really don’t know what it will take for you to be able to get your dream home? This is why it’s always handy for you to have home goals in place. If you know you want to move, for example, start looking at realtors like this Ogden Utah Realtor to get a feel for the market in your local area. If you know that you want to move forward with your home life, you may find that some of these following ideas inspire you.

Renovating Your Home

First of all, it might be the case that you’re thinking about renovating your home. Are there rooms that you want to improve? Do you have different ideas of what you want to decorate? Could the place need an entire makeover? Then why not do that now!

Extending Your Home

Sometimes, you’ll want to go a step further than that and think about the ways in which you can extend your home too. If you ideally know that you want more room or you like the idea of being able to add some value to your home, it’s a good idea for you to consider extending to do that.

Moving

It could even be the case that you’ve been thinking of moving. If that’s so, then you might want to start looking at your options as soon as possible. Maybe you want to find someone to help you with this, such as Jason Cohen, that knows more about the market that you do. Or maybe you want to just keep an eye out until you find the right place. The idea here is that you actually get the process started, rather than just thinking about it.

Moving can be a big decision, especially if you’re going to be leaving your job or changing school too. It often means moving away from friends, but it can be an exciting time if you plan carefully. It’ll all come to fruition on the big day when your Local Moving Company comes to move your belongings into your new home. It’s at this point that you can breathe a sigh of relief that you’re finally achieving your dream!

Building

As a step on from that, you may find that you might want to actually build the home of your dreams rather than move into it. This can take a lot of work and might need lots of planning, but if you know it’s something that you definitely want to do, why not start thinking about it now? When you build a home, you have the choice to design the home interiors according to your personal style. You get to choose how many balconies you want and whether a backyard pool would work well for your recreations. You can also look for a locality of your choice. If you are someone who wants to settle in a picturesque neighborhood like this Lake Travis community, you can build a waterfront custom home that you desire. Building a home always opens doors to a wide range of choices, so grab them when you have the opportunity!

A Bit Of Everything

Or maybe you actually want to do a range. It could be that you want to be able to renovate your home a little and then sell it so you can upgrade your living situation? Maybe you want to renovate and extend it? It could be that you also want to move and build. No matter what you want to do, it just really helps to be thinking about it now. This will allow you to actually make it happen rather than just waiting for it one day in the future.
