No More Spots!

ERTH Finds· Self Care

Today while I was out playing Easter Bunny, trying to buy things to put in my kids’ Easter baskets, I made a pitstop at the Origins counter at Macy’s to use my birthday month coupon.  I’ve been studying the products on the Origins website trying to pick out some new skin care products and finally figured out which ones I wanted to try. 

I’ve actually been happy with my skin care regimen lately.  I just wanted to try something different, something a little less harsh and more eco-friendly and natural, and the few products and samples I have received from Origins I have really liked. 

It took me a while though because they have so many products that target different things.  The main concern I’ve had with my skin has been the freckles.  They are cute on kids, not so cute on adults!  Oh let me correct myself…freckles are cute on kids, on adults they are called AGE SPOTS.  Enough said.  So today I purchased the moisturizer and correcting serum from the Origins Brighter by Nature collection.  It’s their skin tone correcting line. 

Of course by blogging about this, I have now held myself accountable for sticking to a regimen so I can report back to you all on how well the products worked.  And how will I track this?  Well, I took a close up picture of my skin for a before picture.  This is a HUGE deal peoples, because not many have seen me without makeup.  I am my mother’s daughter afterall.  So you are getting a very rare glimpse of the pure, unaltered skin on my cheek.  Are you ready?

Oh good!  It doesn’t look so bad now that I’ve put it out there.  :-)  But hopefully it will look better in a couple weeks!  Zap those age spots away!

So my skin care regimen will look like this:

a.m. – Origins GinZing Eye Cream (already using this and love it), Origins Brighter by Nature skin tone correcting serum, Origins Brighter By Nature Moisturizer SPF 35, then makeup, of course

p.m. – Origins Well Off Fast and Gentle Eye Makeup Remover (this has been my eye makeup remover of choice for about a year now), Origins Checks and Balances Frothy Face Wash (just ordered online today), Origins Brighter by Nature skin tone correcting serum, Origins High Potency Night-A-Mins Night Cream (just ordered online today)

Stay tuned for an update on the diminishing age spots….

☘️Happy St. Patrick’s Day! ☘️ I’m we ☘️Happy St. Patrick’s Day! ☘️ 

I’m wearing my green today and preparing to make some corned beef and cabbage for dinner, but what is this day about? Here are some fun facts:
☘️
What are we celebrating? St Patrick’s Day commemorates the patron saint of Ireland, a missionary who brought Christianity to Ireland. It is celebrated on March 17th, which is the day he is believed to have died.
☘️
Why shamrocks? St. Patrick used the 3-leaf shamrock to explain the Holy Trinity.
☘️
Why green? Green has tradition in Ireland but an old folklore states that wearing green makes you invisible to leprechauns. If they can see you, they will pinch you! 
☘️
Why corned beef and cabbage?  Well, corned beef and cabbage is NOT the traditional dish in Ireland! When Irish immigrants came to America, they couldn’t afford the more traditional pork and bacon, so they used the cheapest cut of meat they could find, beef brisket. So corned beef (not in any way related to corn but is a reference to the brine) and the inexpensive vegetable, cabbage, became the celebration dish of choice. (Side note, if you are Catholic and St. Patrick’s Day falls on a Friday during Lent, like today, diocese will usually issue a dispensation from abstinence, which means meat can be eaten today.  So queue the corned beef!).

Because I love this quote so much, I had to upgrad Because I love this quote so much, I had to upgrade it from a story to a post. Michelle Yeoh, 60 years old, is the first Asian woman to win an Oscar for best actress for her performance in Everything Everywhere All at Once. 🏆What an inspiration! 💗 And not to be overshadowed, Jaime Lee Curtis won her first Oscar for a supporting role in the same movie. She is 64.

🌟It’s never too late!🌟

Happy New Year! I’ve been a little absent becaus Happy New Year! I’ve been a little absent because I started the year off with a cold that left me tired and unmotivated. But I’m feeling better and starting my goal tracking a little late. I thought it would be helpful to combine all our goal trackers into one file for easy downloading and printing. The link to the all-in-one file can be found in our profile @everydayroadtohealthy ☝🏼. Swipe to see January printed at 75% and taped inside my planner. I’m hoping this works better for me this year!
💚 Start where you are. 🤎
