Last year, we had a lot of rotten vegetables because of pests and wildlife- aka our chickens and wild rabbits. That is why we set a protective boundary this year for all our veggies. Our main garden we used an orange temporary fence and for our small garden we used old wheels. For our orange temporary fence, we put stakes in the ground every few feet and then wrapped the temporary fence throughout the stakes. The temporary fence had holes in the fencing and we wrapped each stake with one of the holes. For the wheel, we just used an old wheel we had on the property and we put it around all our smaller plants. If you do not have access to a wheel, funny enough scrap yards have tons of them. All our plants are growing really well right know! I will give you more updates when our plants are really growing. The only plant we are currently harvesting and eating are the cherry tomatoes. We have added them to our salads, BLTs and our pesto pasta. Thank you for reading!

Here is something you might not know about me- I'm not a big believer on makeup and I am a major believer in skincare. I feel that makeup does not benefit your skin at all- except for a few exceptions of brands such as Westman Atelier. That is why I always tell my friends and family member to always focus on their skincare products because these awesome items can lessen your problem areas. For example, one of my focus areas I have an issue with is my under eyes. Instead of using an under eye concealer, I will ice the area, use under eye masks such as Burt's Bees Renewing Hydrogel Eye Mask and then I use the Ordinary Caffeine Solution 5% twice a day. This routine doesn't really reduce the dark pigments, but it does decrease the puffiness and overall tiredness.
The last products I use for the day is for my morning and night skin routine. In the morning, I use a bit of the Mario Badescu Facial Spray with Aloe, Herbs and Rosewater, then I apply the Ordinary Caffeine Solution and then use three pumps of the Burt's Bees Sensitive Solutions Calming Day Lotion with Aloe and Rice Milk. I love the Burt's Bee moisturizer because its specifically for sensitive skin and it makes my skin feel hydrated throughout the day. For night time, I wash my face with Ole Henriksen Face the Truth Gel Cleanser which deeply cleanses my skin and makes my skin feel sooo clean. I then use the Ordinary Solution again on my under eyes and then apply the Burt's Bees Sensitive Solutions Calming Night Cream as my last step. I use probably too much product, but it does make your skin feel so smooth and helps maintain your skin's elasticity throughout the night. My last step of the night is using the Coco Mademoisselle lotion. This lotion is super expensive ($60) but as a luxury to myself, I use it almost every night. The scent has a sweet floral scent and it has last a few months at least. I feel like you always need an item in your skincare line that makes you feel beautiful. Thank you for reading and please share your skincare routine below! I love learning everyone's skincare routine!! XOXO, LISA |
