Typology is a France based company and makes great products with less ingredients. I love that they are using organic ingredients that we can pronounce and understand. The products have a great smell and don't irritate sensitive skin. My daughters and I love all the products that we have tried from Typology. They arrive within a week and are not over priced. Our skin looks more clear and I have not had any acne since starting this skincare line. I love that they give you a bunch of samples when you order $100 or more plus free shipping. This skincare line is our favorite because it actually works for a variety of different skin types. They have a free diagnostic test you can take so that you know what products to even buy which is great. I was overwhelmed for a few minutes until I saw that test.

I work from home, and it's tough to sit all day. I have issues with discs in my back, and I need the option to stand or sit for a while. These are the best items to ensure you are comfortable sitting all day. We might as well make our office a great space to be in since we are working for 8 hours plus a day! It's great for our body to move a little too throughout the day to prevent stiff muscles. I find that I am also more happy when my office is clean and organized.

If you have family, then you know the struggle with making meals quickly. Kids are hungry when they get home and want food ASAP. Then, when you have a large family gathering, there is often not enough oven space when you're cooking. We need lots of cooking options that are efficient when we have a large family (and/or extended). We also want to keep our kids safe and make our life easier with lots of technology in the house! I have put together a list of the best purchases we have made for this house.

Since my kids were toddlers, we have played board games with them. Of course, we started with typical games like Sorry, Uno, Monopoly, etc. Then we realized there were games with more strategy that made playing games more fun. My older girls are not as into playing board games now that they are teenagers, but our younger son is always asking to play a game. My husband hosts game nights frequently with others and has a growing collection of at least 100 different games. It's a great way to socialize and meet others in the area.

My husband has lost a great deal of weight eating keto. His focus was to bring down his weight and sugar levels to be able to get off his medication. We have found great meal and snack options that work well for him. Meals are mostly just protein and veggies. I don't typically make potatoes or pasta anymore. My son really wanted lasagna recently, so I just took half the ground beef and made taco meat and let him use the other half for lasagna. That way, they both could eat something that they wanted.

We have 2 dogs and 2 cats. They are all different when it comes to personalities and pallets, but these are winners for them! We are able to find healthy treats that they like for a win all around!

Where to get the best meals, rent a car, find the coolest attractions, and most importantly, where to stay in Oahu! This is one of the best trips we took as a family, and we almost went again this year. The kids mostly enjoyed the beach, surfing, and all the amazing food! We did not do a luau because it is extremely expensive and didn't seem worth it to us. We weren't too excited about the food they served, but the show would have been neat. We did find a small Hawaiian show at the mall to enjoy, though.

Grab your tickets and souvenirs to save some money before your magical trip! If you’re a first time Disney attendee you will want to read below. Read all about my tips and tricks too for a successful vacation! There’s a lot for think about and know ahead of time.

I have tried so many products to see what works best on wavy/curly hair. I get the best results with these products and they are budget friendly! I have also been on a hair growth journey trying to get thicker hair now that I am older and feel like my hair is thinning. Batana hair oil has given me the results I was looking for. My hairdresser asked me what I have been using. I also have dry skin, while my middle daughter has oily skin. Together, we found beauty products that work well for us that don't irritate our skin.

We take several vacations per year and have found some items to be essential for land or cruise vacations. Additional tip- If you are traveling with a passport, make sure you make additional copies of your passport and email them to yourself and keep some copies with you. You don't want to lose your passport on a trip or have it stolen. Before a trip., I start packing small things and then as it get's closer I write down the items that are missing from that luggage on a sticky note and put it on the luggage. As I add that item, I cross of the item on the sticky note. It helps prevent missing items, but it still can happen, especially when kids do their own. When it comes time to leave and go home, we put all the dirty luggage into 1-2 pieces of luggage and then I can easily throw it all into the washer when we get home.

The best brand of cleaners that not only work, but also don't have any harsh chemicals. I also really like the fact that these cleaners don't have a strong smell. I like a clean house, but I hate the strong odor that most cleaners contain.

These are the go-to breakfast items in our house. We look for something quick and healthier if we can. I have acid reflux and need low-acid coffee. I found the best coffee on Amazon.

I am very picky about pants and found these to be so comfortable. I don't like anything really right or super baggy. Since I work from home, I am almost always dressed in yoga-type pants and a comfortable shirt. Hoodies are the best, too! I prefer the zip-up hoodies, though. With most malls in the WI area being ghost towns, I mostly shop at Kohls or Amazon for clothes even for my kids. I do have a few favorite stores for slightly dressy clothes that work well for any party or date night!

As someone who has sensitivities to US gluten and dairy food, I look for food from Europe or healthier alternatives that are gluten and dairy-free. You will find some of my favorite snacks below that even my kids enjoy!

Finding healthier gluten and dairy-free options is difficult in the US. I have some favorite restaurants in the area but we mostly cook at home. I also have some favorite grocery stores to find European food. Their food has less ingredients, no bioengineered ingredients, chemicals etc.

Must have places to eat and things to do while in the Milwaukee, Wi area. I was born and raised here in Wisconsin. We are known for our football and dairy! Though ironically, I can't eat dairy unless it comes from Europe.
