Beauty

Lauren’s Laser Hair Remover

Laser Hair Remover

Alright let’s talk laser hair removal! I have had professional laser hair removal done on my underarms and my bikini area, and my esthetician greenlit using an at-home device for my “maintenance” every month or two moving forward! I’ve heard AMAZING things about this at-home laser hair removal device and just started using it on my legs about 2 weeks ago! It should take about 6 weeks before I’ll notice a difference, but I’m looking forward to mimimzing the hair growth in another area! See ya later, razors!

Random Finds

Portable Playard

Evenflo Portable Playard

This portable playard is a MUST! It’s so easy to set up and is a perfect place for your little one to hang out with some toys to play with! I love that you can use it with the canopy up, down, or halfway zipped. Safe + convenient for Mom, Dad, and baby is a win for everyone.

A Court of Thorns and Roses

A Court of Thorns and Roses by Sarah J. Maas

Claire here! This book has been EVERYWHERE lately and, although Fantasy is not my go-to genre, I was curious to see what all the hype was about. WOW. 👏 It’s a story about romance, resilience, and yes… fairies too! 😉 If you’re looking for something different to read, I’d highly recommend! Five stars!
