Treat your self to a facial

Weeks ago while out with my sisters we were talking about how wonderful you feel right after you get microdermabrasion. If you have not had it, please make yourself an appointment. I promise you, you will not regret it! And your skin will thank you for weeks after. But lets be realistic, no one has the money nor the time to get microdermabrasion or a facial all the time. So my esthetician sister starting talking about the electronic hand held facial scrubbers.
We all decided to buy one and thought why not try it out. 
Clearasonic System

At first I had mixed reviews about it. How could an electronic facial scrubber do any better than I did with a wash cloth? I first washed my face the same that I do each night and then used the hand held device. I was SO SURPRISED! The brush had makeup residue on it! All those years of not getting off all my makeup would obviously take a toll on my skin... Well not anymore! My skin felt extra clean and soft. My money was well spent. 
Check them out! There are many at all price points.

$29.50 at Amazon

Treatment for your Clothes

I hate it more than anything when you buy a great pair of jeans and the color of them starts to fade quickly! Egh, biggest let down ever as you buy your jeans based off of COLOR and fit.This has happened to me many times in the past. That is until one day while shopping at this cute little boutique I was told one the of best secrets. 

TO WASH YOUR JEANS WITH A CUP OF THIS LITTLE LOVER


 That's right just add 1 cup of white distilled vinegar to the wash the 1ST TIME you wash the jeans and they will keep their color much much longer. Vinegar smells I know, but trust me your clothes smell nothing like them when its washed with your choice of laundry soap. (obviously the best for jeans is Wool-light dark)

Also, if you have delicate whites that you know you should not wash with the typical bleach, also try adding vinegar, as its a natural way to whiten things...who knew?
