  • Double tap if your skin could use some love! 💗 Let’s face it — now that I’m in my late 30s, my skin isn’t as youthful as it once was. I’ve tried tons of different brands and products to help with fine lines, wrinkles, dark spots, etc., so I was so happy to discover @ernolaszlonyc, a skincare brand that has been around since 1927. The products have become a part of my daily ritual and I love them because they actually work! If you’re looking to combat signs of aging, you have to try Erno Laszlo’s Firmarine line, formulated to firm and lift your skin. It is AMAZING! The Firmarine Moisturizer SPF 30, Firmarine Lifting Serum, and Firmarine Night Cream have a nice, natural scent and go on smooth. I’ve been using them for over a month and I can already tell a difference in my skin — it looks brighter and smoother and it feels oh-so-soft! 🥰 Have you tried Erno Laszlo products? Which one is your favorite? #LaszloIcon 🎀

  • AD: School mornings can be crazy! To help them go more smoothly, I'm making sure that I keep my refrigerator and freezer stocked with a variety of wholesome and convenient breakfast options.

They are so easy to pack on busy mornings and they are a great source of protein, making them a great lunch option. . You can find Great Day Farms hard-boiled eggs at Walmart in the deli section. Make sure you load the current Ibotta offer to save $0.25 off of the 2-pack or $0.50 off of the 6-pack! {link in bio} #EggceptionallyGreat 🥚
  • #AD As much as I didn't want to shop for school supplies this year -- because that would mean another summer had come and gone -- I was excited to spend an afternoon with my kids. We shopped til we dropped at @OfficeDepot and found a wide variety of items at low prices. The awesome thing is we were able to check everything off of our list! . Still need to shop for school supplies? #OfficeDepot has everything you need for a successful school year, no matter what age.

  • I can’t believe my son is officially a SENIOR in high school! 💙 I am so proud of him and want to do everything I can to help him have a successful school year. . Almost all of his classes will require him to turn assignments in online, so it's an absolute must that he has a computer. Rather than having to use mine all the time, I decided it was time for him to have his own! . I’m all about saving money so I’m thrilled that we found an affordable option at Walmart. Click the link in my bio see what we picked out & read WHY I think every high schooler needs to have one! . Does your teen have his/her own computer? 💻#UpgradeYourExpectations #ad
