Roborock; Tide; Tom & Sheri’s

We all have been in our homes for a while now and let's be real, we have been our own personal maid. Well, I have to say these items have made my daily routine a little easier. Roborock S4 will give you more time in your day, by vacuuming every square inch of your floors, and if you don’t believe me download the app to see where your Robo helper has already cleaned. I have to say I have been thru so many self-cleaning products and gadgets and never have I seen a vacuum clean better than I DO! You know I love Tide products, Tide on the Go is a must, especially if you have kids you can’t help a spill but you can wipe it away. The One Wash Miracle does exactly what it says.. Miracles! Okay.. let's not get carried away but in my line of work Agriculture, I’m always in a greenhouse, checking on plants occasionally dirt will fall on me or I will just wipe my dirt-filled hands on the back of my pants. By the end of the day, my clothes smell horrid. Tide Miracle wash keeps my clothes smelling fresh every wash and the clean scent lasts a lot longer! My secret to a crisp, put-together outfit is…(drumroll please) Tom & Sheri’s iron in a bottle. It does just that, no iron needed. Just spray, shake and smooth! Wrinkles are gone fresh clean linen scent like it just came out of the dryer. I even have the travel size in my purse!

Neom; Tatine; Hotel; Hyascent

Being home more has given me the time to appreciate and incorporate new scents in my space! I have to say certain scents transport me to a memory and some help me make new memories. I love different scents in every room in my home. My family room has a scent that draws you in. A scent that encompasses the essence and meaning of family. Hyascent does just that it captures and embodies family. Neom has given my home life with their limited edition Christmas Wish scent. Scents of Spicy and fruity oils of mandarin, cinnamon, and tonka bean. When this candle is lit my mind is in a relaxed mode especially when I'm in the kitchen, cooking becomes a joy. Tatine I keep in my office this candle keeps my mind in the game when lit, the fruity smells of citrus and lavender keeps me laser-focused and relaxed through my workday. When the day is done it’s time to get comfy, cozy with a good book and the Hotel Signature Candle. This smell will have you cozied up with a blanket and a good book. The scent Midnight in Paris is definitely a good bedroom candle.

This is it) I get asked about Hyaluronic Acid and how it’s used and honestly the easiest way to use it is the way Dr. Babor created it! A 2 step performance set that I have seen results in my first week of using it.
