Hey friends! ☕️ 

I don't know if it was the full moon 🌕️ or just that time of the month, but this week had me feeling some type of way.

First, I smashed my beloved glass makeup dish into a million pieces and cut my hand—blood everywhere!

Then, my kids decided to go full drama mode: extra clingy, extra tears at drop-off, extra whiny... you name it. It happened.

But hey, amidst the chaos, some pretty great stuff happened too! ♥️ 

I’ve been working on something special for ages, and guess what? I’ll be sharing it here first! More on that later… 😉

For now, let's dive into how I survived this wild week, the skincare combos you need to try and a sneak peek at a super-secret project I’ve been brewing! 🌟

Skincare Combo’s You NEED To Try!

I've found that pairing the right ingredients can make a huge difference in my skincare game.

Here are the duos that never let me down:

• Vitamin C + Hyaluronic Acid
  This trio is my secret weapon! 🌟 This 15% Vitamin C Serum brightens my skin, while Hyaluronic Acid help stabilize it and make it even more effective.
  TIP: I always use it in the morning to protect against pollution and UV rays!
  

• Salicylic Acid + Niacinamide
  When my skin needs clarity, I turn to this powerhouse combo! ✨ I use this Salicylic Acid Clearing Gel to help clear pores, while this Niacinamide 15 Serum soothes and evens out skin tone.
  TIP: I apply it after cleansing to target breakouts and brighten my complexion!
  

• Resveratrol + Peptides
  Resveratrol Serum is my go-to for targeting wrinkles and paired with a plumping Peptide Cream helps smooth my skin. ✨
  TIP: This duo is a great prep step before introducing retinol into your routine for an added boost without irritation!
  

• Sunscreen + Vitamin C
  I swear by this combo for glowing, protected skin! ☀️🍊
  TIP: I apply a simple Vitamin C in the morning for brightness, then follow with an Illuminating Sunscreen to shield my skin from UV damage and keep my glow all day long!

How I Survive Chaotic Days

I know we all have those days when nothing seems to go right.

Here are some tips that actually help:

1. Get Moving
   When everything feels heavy, getting up and moving your body can be a total game-changer. If you stay stuck in one spot for too long, it’s easy to get trapped in that mindset. Break the cycle with some movement! 🏃‍♀️
   

2. Prioritize
   Make a list of three things you must get done. Forget the rest. If it’s not urgent, it can wait. TIP: Use sticky notes or an app to track it visually. 📝

3. Phone a Friend
   When in doubt, call your person. A quick chat or venting session can make all the difference. ☎️

4. Find Your Happy Place
   It could be visiting your favourite coffee shop, getting a bite with your friends, or a quick dance break in your living room. ☕💃 Find what makes you smile, and do that

5. Reward Yourself
   Give yourself something to look forward to. Whether it’s a bubble bath, your favorite dessert, or a Netflix binge. 🍰🎬

Something’s been brewing…

Remember I hinted at something exciting?

Well, the time is almost here!

If you’ve been around since my early YouTube days (shout out to my OGs!), you may have noticed I’ve been a bit MIA for awhile…

But guess what?

A new video is dropping soon and you’re the FIRST to hear about it, and I promise, you won’t want to miss this!
