Is The Almond Cow Machine Worth it?
WTF is an Almond Cow Machine? Does it only make almond milk? I discovered Almond Cow when it came across my Instagram feed and had those two very questions. I clicked the link and, was fascinated, asked for the fancy device for Christmas. The Almond Cow is a...

Why Switch To Bar Soap?
My parents bought Irish Spring at Costco when I was a kid, so I'm no stranger to bar soap. But, as an adult, it's never been my go-to for washing my face; until now. Bar soap has come a long way since the 80s, and I'm here for it. Today's cleansing bars are a far cry...

Product Review: Biologique Recherche P50 1970
I don't know about you, but I think experiencing acne in my 30s is unacceptable! I have enough to deal with as a mom, wife, angry pharmacist, business owner, etc. Not to mention, now more than ever, I want to feel comfortable and confident in my makeup-free skin. Not...
