Hey readers, 

I hope everyone is tackling the week, and is ready for the upcoming weekend! Tonight, I've thought it wuld be fun to write a little about my favorites at my job!! I work at an all organic and green certified spa, called Le Reve Organic Spa & Boutique in Santa Barbara!

Favorite Product(s) of the Day:

v Jurlique – Body Exfoliating Gel

Jurlique’s body exfoliating gel is made with Walnut Shell powder, which provides gentle exfoliation without irritation, Avocado Oil, and Glycerin, which leaves skin soft, hydrated and protected, and a few essential oils. These ingredients come together to lift away dead skin cells and reveal a new, hydrated, soft layer of skin.

v Eminence – Raspberry Pore Refining Masque

The Raspberry Pore Refining Masque by Eminence is made with Raspberry Juice, Blueberry Juice, and Blackberry Juice. These ingredients all come together and are used as an antioxidant and as a great source of Vitamin B, C, K, and Omega 3s They work to tighten the look of pores, moisturize nourish the skin, and improve the appearance of skin.

v La Bella Donna – Liquid Mineral Foundation

v La Bella Donna – Pure Mineral Powder Foundation

La Bella Donna’s foundation is composed of a mineral-based formula. This means that the product does not clog your pores as it only contains minerals from rock, which are in an inorganic state and are not absorbed by the skin. LBD foundation provides a full spectrum natural sun block protecting your skin all day! This mineral make up is for every age, and skin type, and works to nourish, heal, soothe, and calm your skin while covering any blemishes.

Favorite Quote of the Day: 

“On life’s journey faith is nourishment, virtuous deeds are a shelter, wisdom is the light by day and right mindfulness is the protection by night. If a man lives a pure life, nothing can destroy him.” - Buddha

Favorite Spa Service(s) of the Day:

I always recommend choosing a variety of services and pampering yourself to a self-made spa package!

If I were making my own spa package I would choose the following:

v Mind and Body Facial

This facial incorporates an amazing stone massage, where warm stones are placed on the seven chakras to restore the mind and body, your hands and feet will be soaked in coconut oils, while a series of organic masks are applied, leaving your skin rejuvenated and renewed.   

v One hour massage

There’s nothing better than to extend a facial, and ease in to a massage, to keep you relaxed and lengthen your therapeutic experience. 

v Le Reve Spa Manicure and Pedicure

As your skin softens while your hands and feet are soaked in milk & oats, you can choose a polish from a variety of colors that will satisfy any mood, occasion or style!!

I hope you all enjoyed my new favorites, and I’m sure everyone would come up with their own favvs at the spa!

Have a peaceful, serene and relaxing week,

Happy Birthday Mom!!

Happy Birthday to the strongest woman I know, to the person who has supported me and stood by through every triumph and downfall, to the woman who taught me the true meaning of unconditional love, to the only person I need when I'm worried or upset, the one who still has slumber parties with me when I'm in town, the woman who's cooking is unbeatable and who's voice is soothing without a doubt! Happy birthday to the person who has taken care of me every time I was sick for the last 20 years, helps me through my anxiety, supports my every dream, turns the idea of me being a mistake to me being a miracle 10 years later, shares tostadas with me when all hell is breaking loose, and shares the most unique and important bond with me. Happy birthday to the woman I love with my entire being, the person I would die for, you momma!! Even though you weren't around that much growing up, I haven't forgotten that you would wake up extra early every year on my first day of school to straighten my hair and prepare me with roses for my teachers, that you would spray water in my hair to detangle my curls and keep telling me to NOT look in the mirror until you were done, that you attended all my spirit award assemblies, our driving adventures while you would feed me on the way to school, therapy, all of our pointless phone calls, sleeping under the sun with your tiger shirt and every memory we've shared. Over the years you've been a wife, a mom to 3, a chef, our punching bag, our rock, our teacher, a grandma, and my best friend. I wish I could be in LA to celebrate with you! I miss you so much and I love you more than words can describe! I can't imagine my life without you and I hope I will never have to!! Happy birthday momma, I wish that all your dreams come true. I love you so so muchh!!!
