Take a break…..

Take a break, if you’re a Hamilton-Fan too, now you’ve got this song stuck in your head.

Take a break. Often times I find myself overthinking this simple yet powerful task. I’ll talk myself out of taking just a few moments to fill up my cup by thinking about all of the other things that I should be doing in that moment. When in fact the time it took me to overthink taking a break could have been used in a simple pampering moment.

That’s why I’ve learned over the years to set up my products so that they become part of my daily tasks. Like this little hand scrub station right here next to my kitchen sink, I placed the sweet melon scented sugar scrub right next to the hand soap(I love shopping grove!) so that atleast once per day I can easily treat myself to a hand scrub. We are all washing our hands way more lately and that leads to drier skin which then needs to be scrubbed, so this simple set up leads to an easy peasy pampering session.

Of course after washing and scrubbing, my hands need that non greasy moisture packed posh hand creme so I be sure to set one there so it’s easy peasy to use it too. What’s your favorite posh hand creme scent? Is it current or retired?

This simple pampering set up is placed on a vintage hot plate which I’ve collected over the years. They have silly sayings that make you think and I just love them. This one is my most current findings and wow is the meaning so powerful for me. Anyone else feel it too? The hurrier I go the behinder I get.

Truly a lesson I’ve learned over this last year that has been filled with many lessons of being still in the busyness. When I would try to hurry through whatever I was facing it felt like things just got messier and messier. It wasn’t until I learned the true meaning of being still that life seemed to become more manageable, I was content and learned the power of being still.

So this little pampering set up helps me take care of this body that I have been given, which then fills up my self care cup, all while making it simple. Everything I need for a 1 minute pampering session is right there on that hot plate with the reminder to be still. Do you set things up for yourself like this? If not then I’d highly suggest to take a few moments to set up something like this for yourself. I’ll be sharing more of my set ups over these next few weeks and I hope that it inspires you to be still and refill.

Blessings,

Poshy Skin Care Routines

 

We get asked for skin care routines often, so we decided to put together a couple for you. One thing to keep in mind with any skin care routines is that each of us have different skin which means that you may need your own unique skin care set. Also when switching or adding something new into your routine note that your skin may need an adjustment phase as it gets used the ingredients you are feeding it. Yes, all of these amazing products are full of ingredients that are like food for your skin. Taking great care of your skin not only makes it physically look and feel better but it also fills up your self care cup with is something that many of us forget to do.

Raising a little Lady.

Ummmmmmm y’all, today was a huge moment for me. I’m a teen mom, yep I had Abby my senior year in high school while Travis was deployed. From the moment I found out I was preggo after breaking into the house my family was just evicted from(that is an entire blog post in itself for later on) to take a test, I knew that I was going to turn this accidental life changing blessing into an intentionally driven family. Which meant trying our best to raise little humans that wouldn’t conform to the “norm” for teen moms and love the journey along the way.

Here we are 15 years later with valleys of mistakes and mountains of triumphs as young parents behind us. We’ve kept our focus of intentionally parenting each one of our kiddos right in front of us. Big step for us as parents……This little lady is wearing lip color for the first time…..and she is rocking it. The best part? Seeing her confidence and hearing the excitement in her voice about how it makes her feel. She knows who she is as much as she can for being 14 and she knows that getting to rock this glorious shade of pink is apart of growing up owning a fun family pampering business.

When she turned 14 she got to wear mascara and up until this point there was a no makeup rule, even when her friends were all experimenting. She squealed with excitement when she opened that box to find all kinds of trial sized mascaras and she was absolutely thankful to get to learn how to use them. Sure I’m a young trendy mom and could have allowed her to jump right into make up tutorials. But that is not what we wanted her to focus on as she was growing into the lady she will go into the world to be. We have one shot to try our best to make sure she knows her true beauty(yesssss, I love the musical Hamilton!!). It’s who you are, not what you can imitate that makes you the unique person you are meant to be.

Our focus with her has been skin care, loving yourself, and allowing your freckles to shine. She learned the power of self love and self care starting at a young age. With our family business being pampering products and helping others learn those same principles, she was able to truly see it’s importance. When she feels her bucket getting low then she knows how to fill it on her own. This is something I think we have gotten too busy to teach, let alone be a good example of. We teach our babies to self soothe so they can sleep better but we stopped teaching our children to know their own self love/care needs and how to fill them. Once I realized she grasped this concept and was teaching others to do the same, I knew she was ready for makeup so mascara then lip color was the perfect step for her.

Lip color brings out confidence that you can see in her eyes and hear in her voice. Made with the best ingredients, the staying power and the deep pigmented color from Vial that for me was icing on the cake. As soon as she put it on, you could see another beautiful layer of her personality shine. And it lasted the entire school day without budging or ending up all over her teeth and face. Empowering without overpowering her natural beauty. Just a touch of mascara, lip color and letting her healthy freckle filled skin glow.

Here we are in our parenting journey and teaching the importance of self love and self care. Have you taken the time lately to fill your own bucket? Are you wanting to try out this brand new lip product, Vial? Well our family absolutely loves to help others with their pampering journey, don’t forget You deserve it and so does Abby!

Many Blessings,

Nicole
