The Harrington Edit

My current skincare picks for managing excess oil, breakouts, and post-acne discoloration. These are products I’m currently using, testing, or would genuinely recommend for this combination of concerns. I’m building this routine around my own experience with oily, acne-prone skin and hyperpigmentation, so every product has a specific purpose.

Our 12-day Europe itinerary covering Paris, Portugal, Budapest, Vienna, and Prague. This is the trip we actually planned, including our hotels, flights, trains, tours, sightseeing, shopping, restaurants, and the little logistics that helped us get from one city to the next. We packed a lot into this trip, so this itinerary is organized day by day to show exactly how we planned to make the most of our time.

Our 5-day Belize itinerary for a family of four with kids ages 3 and 7. We combined a relaxing stay at Black Rock Lodge with a full-day trip to Tikal in Guatemala, Xunantunich, a Belizean cooking experience in Hopkins, and beach time in San Pedro. This itinerary reflects what we actually did, including the busy days that were absolutely worth it.

Our 8-day Los Angeles family itinerary with Disneyland, Disney California Adventure, Hollywood, Santa Monica, Beverly Hills, Malibu, Pasadena, shopping, restaurants, and more. This is the trip we actually took with our kids, including where we stayed, what we did each day, where we ate, and the little strategies that helped us make the most of our time in LA. We packed a lot into this trip, so this itinerary is organized day by day to show exactly what we did.

The cleaning sprays, tools, and everyday bathroom essentials I recommend for keeping marble shower walls and floors, Taj Mahal quartzite countertops, and bathroom cabinets looking beautiful. I’m careful about what I use on these surfaces, so every recommendation has a specific purpose and is chosen with natural-stone and finished-surface care in mind.

The restaurants around Augusta, Evans, Grovetown, Martinez, and North Augusta that we’ve tried, loved, and would recommend. We love trying new restaurants as a family, so our list ranges from easy takeout and casual favorites to upscale dinners and dessert spots worth the trip.
