My favorite notifications lately? THESE RIGHT HERE My favorite notifications lately? THESE RIGHT HERE. 😭👏🏽🖤

Listen, I can talk about my own wellness journey ALL DAY LONG, but when my phone starts lighting up with messages from customers sharing their experiences? THAT’S A WHOLE DIFFERENT KIND OF EXCITEMENT! 🔥

The nervous first-timers realizing the process wasn’t nearly as intimidating as they expected.

The customers celebrating their weight-loss milestones.

The messages about feeling better, having more energy, and noticing changes they’re genuinely excited about.

And yes…apparently some of y’all are going to need a new wardrobe. 😂🛍️

THIS is why I love what I do.

Not just sharing products, but being someone my customers can ask questions, lean on for accountability, and celebrate their wins with.

Because behind every one of these messages is a REAL person with REAL goals. And getting to cheer them on? That’s the good stuff.

Curious about my supplement and peptide journey or what my customers are sharing? 💌 Comment “READY” or send me a DM. I’m happy to share my experience, answer questions about the process, and help you identify what products would be best for YOU! 🫶🏾

Justin: “Babe, you look really small today..” Me: Justin: “Babe, you look really small today..”

Me: “really? you think? 👀 Do I look ok?”

Justin: “You’ve always looked great, but you look really good! I’m proud of you!”

Me: “☺️😚 oh stooooop…..but no keep going!” ha!

LISTEN! If I don’t stick to my upgraded wellness routine for any other reason, I’m going to stick to it for my damn self-esteem and the renewed sense of confidence it has given me! 

Unless you’ve personally experienced it, you just won’t understand. But being a woman and turning 40 is NOT, I repeat, is NOT for the weak! Your body changes in ways you never even imagined, and with that comes being discouraged and extremely hard on yourself when the reflection in the mirror isn’t what you had been use to for the prior 39 years! 

So today, I’m celebrating the fact that I got out of my own way and made the decision to get back to ME!  Heck, ya’ll just might see me come out of retirement and sign up to run another marathon! 😂🎉 Who’s joining me?!? Any takers👀👀

Happy Monday Friends! Don’t forget to go be great today! 💪🏽

My response? BABY, I LIVED ON THAT FENCE FOR ALMOST A YEAR! 😂👏🏽

I questioned everything. Overthought everything. And talked myself out of even exploring my options more times than I can count.

But here’s what I’ve learned and what I now tell everyone to else……Give yourself 3 MONTHS.

Not just 3 months on peptides. Three months of getting serious about YOU. LOCK IN. 🔒 Your nutrition. Your water. Your movement. Your consistency. And give yourself a real opportunity to see what changes.

Because 3 months are going to pass whether you do something differently or not. 👏🏽

Summer Lip Products You Need

Hey Guys! I hope everyone’s summer is off to a great start! We are only a few days into summer officially, and I can already tell this is going to be a jam-packed summer.

One question I get asked a lot is about the lip products I use. Finding good, high-quality lip products is a struggle, and I’ve searched all over and spent more money than I care to share. Finally, I’ve found a brand that has multiple lip products that are amazing quality, great color selection, color pay-off, stay in place, and don’t break the bank!

Let me Introduce: Limelife by Alcone

If you are not familiar with Limelife by Alcone, let me get you up to speed real quick, because clearly, you’ve been living under a rock:

“Incredible makeup and skin care for everyone…
At LimeLife, we empower people to achieve their goals and dreams and to inspire others to do the same. Our family-owned company was founded in 1952 to provide professional makeup to the stage and film industry. Now we are expanding our reach to help women and men everywhere look their best every day with our all natural skincare line and personalized makeup palettes.”

You all know I am already in love with my current skincare routine, so I do not have much interest in their skincare product line at the moment, HOWEVER, their cosmetics line is knocking it out of the ballpark right now. I’ve tried most of the make-up products, and so far I’m slowing switching over most of my products, and ya’ll know I’m a huge critic when it comes to cosmetics (FYI – be sure to check out my youtube channel for all of my product reviews)

Lip Products you Need to Try

Ok, now time to spill the tea on all of the best lip products you must try this summer.

Over the last few years, I have slowing converted to an avid liquid lipstick lover, particularly matte liquid lips. But the struggle is finding a formula that is not overly dry, crackling, has good pay off, lasts long, and doesn’t bleed. Oh yeah, did I mention finding one that’s comfortable is damn near impossible? Well, I have found a brand that offers lip glosses, lip sticks, and liquid lips, and all three of the product lines check all of my boxes. These Limelife by Alcone lip products are all that, and then some.

Enduring Lip Color – $20/ea. Comes in 20 shades

These Enduring Lip Colors are my new staples. This professional formula applies as a liquid and transforms to a matte, velvety finish with long-lasting, intense, opaque color. You can use alone or in combination with other shades to create unique color combinations.

Perfect Lip Gloss – $18/each – Comes in 17 shades

This non-stick formula can be used on its own or on top of your favorite Perfect Lipstick or Enduring Lip Color to add shine and the appearance of healthier, more voluminous lips. With the 17 different shades, there is a flattering selection for everyone!

Perfect Lipstick – $22/each – Comes in 16 shades

The lipsticks come in two professional formulas, opaque and sheer, so you can change how much color emphasis you want on your lips each day. The Power Pout formula is opaque and highly pigmented while Take A Hint applies sheer for a subtle hint of color that lasts.

Enduring Lip Liners – $18/each – Comes in 7 shades

Last but not least, no lip look is complete without a coordinating liner! The professional formula of these Enduring Lip Liners will last hours, giving you a crisp line that prevents lip color from feathering or bleeding. The one thing I hate more than anything is for my lip color to bleed. Thank goodness for good lip liners to help prevent that from happening!

Let’s Recap

Ok, now that I have spilled the beans and shared my secrets, I hope you all give these amazing products a try. The variety in formulas gives options for everyone. If you’re like me, for years I only wore glosses. Now that I’ve stepped into this century and upped my makeup game, I’ve found other lip color options that complete my everyday looks.

To shop these lip products, and much more, head on over to my Limelife by Alcone site and check it all out!

Happy Sunday Ya’ll!

xoxo,
