✨Full lashes with zero mascara drama ✨

Trying the gentle formula from @babeoriginal tonight — even though I’ve been loyal to the Essential Serum for YEARS.

Full lashes, no mascara has basically been my midlife beauty cheat code.

If your eyes are sensitive or you want a softer, nourishing formula, the Renewing Serum is the one.

If you want fast, dramatic length, the Essential Serum is queen.

Either way… lashes that actually show up in midlife?
Yes, please.

🤍❤️Candy Cane Bark ❤️🤍

Customizable + kid-approved!

This was always a fun holiday tradition when the triplets were younger — everyone picked their own chocolate + toppings 🍫✨

Easy, festive, and always a hit!

Recipe:
• Candy canes (regular or mini)
• Melted white + milk chocolate
• Toppings: crushed peppermint, mini PB M&Ms

Bake candy canes at 300° for 3–5 min → cool → fill with chocolate → add toppings → chill + enjoy 🎅🏼

Save this so you don’t forget! ❤️

Peppermint or M&Ms — which would you choose?👇😋

🍎 Got too many apples? 🍎

Yeah, me too.
 This is your sign to stop storing apples like it’s the apocalypse.
