Fee credit or not, it’s just marketing
Today is September 29. It is nearly the end of the quarter, meaning the AmEx Platinum cardholders will be scrambling to make sure they use their $75 lululemon credit before midnight tomorrow.

You’re going to drink more water now, right?
I have covered multiple times how it is important to drink water if you want more youthful, hydrated skin. You want to hydrate your cells from the inside and not just rely on topical measures. But let’s get real. I don’t care how good your skin looks if your body is falling apart internally. I…

What did you eat for breakfast yesterday? What about lunch, or dinner, or your snacks? What did you drink? Chances are that you don’t remember. Many people don’t, but I would guess you have a general idea of what types of food you eat on a regular basis. What if I told you that what…

I had this journey of trying to find the perfect moisturizer. Everything was a disappointment.
