I've tried SO many face products in the last 3 decades. The ones for oily skin leave me with dry patches and the ones for dry skin make me break out! Here are the products I've found after arduous trials and errors that actually work for people with combination skin. Not too hydrating, not too drying. I call them my Goldilocks products because theyre JUST RIGHT! 😅😅😅 First remove the oils, then do a face mask, next apply serums, use under eye creams, then moisturize the entire face!

These products are great for when you want to accentuate your own natural beauty. I didn't include any foundation because let's be honest I don't wear any lol I don't contour or anything like that. It honestly makes my skin break out which only makes me need to wear makeup more. Most days I don't use makeup. But sometimes I just want to feel a little extra confident or professional at work so here are my main make up products I use for those days.

As an AFAB nonbinary person, something that has offered me a wealth of healing has been learning to honor my divine feminine energy. For years before I came to understand my gender identity, I was angry at my feminine side, but that's because I thought it had to be the stereotype of femininity. I lived very much in my masculine protector energy. Now I am finding a balance and learning to honor my biological sex while remembering that it does not invalidate my true gender identity which is a psychological aspect.

Growing up, my house felt like a museum. I couldn't make anything out of place and I wasn't welcome to relax in any of it but my own bedroom.

Here's my guide to help you turn your living room into a maximum chill spot that feels inviting.

As a dog sitter, I deal with a lot of dog anxiety. Sometimes it's their personality, but usually it's temporary just because their owner is away. Separation anxiety in a dog can even contribute to your own anxiety. Here are some of the things I've found to help out with canine anxiety, whether fleeting or on going. Remember that every dog is different and often a multi-faceted approach is the most successful and comprehensive. Always consult a veterinarian before administering any kind of medication or trying new foods and treats. *Amazon links are affiliate links*
