Tweezing Your Eyebrows

I started tweezing my eyebrows in 8th grade. I actually remember standing in front of the mirror and thinking, “I gotta do what?” But… I did it. I did it because (in all honesty) I really needed to do it. As I’ve gotten older, tweezing has just become a part of my beauty routine. It’s [...]

Fixing Henry’s Hair

I want to state that – I. Did. Not. Cut. Henry’s. Hair. Before. Because whoever did cut his hair before (I know who she is) left it a little bit like a backwards mullet.  And believe me, you know it’s bad when every time you look at your child and think, “Oh man, he needs [...]

Bright Starts InGenuity Collection

When I was pregnant with my sons, I loved heading into the different stores and checking out all the different items for babies.  It added to the excitement for me, and the magic was never lost on me.  Even now, not pregnant… I get the little tugs at my heart when I see fabulous baby [...]

Hanes T-Shirt Bras
