Tools, apps, gadgets and more that help me keep my mind and body together. I'm much more focused on keeping myself healthy and well with natural methods these days so this list features things I use to make it easy on myself.

I am NOT a skincare specialist. I can't give advice I just share what I've used based on what me and my esthi have come up with after SO MUCH trial and error. I highly rec'd going to see an esthetician before adding any of these items into your routine. We worked really hard to lighten up my dark spots, even my skin tone, moisturize my skin and manage my acne. (I'll tell you the biggest influence was changing my diet--whew). If you can go see a professional, I highly rec'd Brandy Watkins Beauty (Milwaukee, WI--link below)I've also included some of my favorite items for taking care of the rest of my skin and body as well. I'm allergic to artificial fragrance, sensitive to too much heat, and my skin is eczema and acne prone.

Things animals I've owned and pet sat have LOVED! Also tools that make pet parenthood and dog ownership easier. ALL items are things I've used before. Follow my journey on Instagram at @soyouwantapet and see these items in action!

I was born and raised in Milwaukee and I LOVE good food. I'm highlighting some of my favorite spots in the city and the things I love on their menu. I believe I was a true foodie in my past life. I'll keep adding to these as I discover more. Message me to know about my extra special spots :) (none of these are affiliate links)

Nothing a trip to target can't fix. Check out the skin and body care products I can't live without! l almost always leave target with something on this list whenever I go.
