That’s right folks, I Betsy Vilca, no longer am slipping on gross chemicals into my body– at least through the armpits. Why? Well, because my hippie bestie Daniela has gone all out and gone eco-friendly. That includes using less plastics! Also, I heard about deodorant possibly causing breast cancer, so there’s that. You heard about people linking deodorant and breast cancer, right? Apparently, ‘underarm antiperspirants or deodorants are applied near…
Dry hair stinks! Many of us deal with dry and brittle hair, it’s a common problem year round. Not sure if you’ve noticed, but when you were younger your hair was in its best health– just like our bodies use to be. And just like our bodies used, our hair health goes gone down the same rabbit-hole. It loses its shine and moisture. Our hair doesn’t lose its life solely…
Spring 2019 Purse You’ll Want Growing up I always loved purses. Some girls loved their mothers pearls and heels, but for me it was always her collection of purses. Even now I get super excited over a new purse. It’s an accessory that makes an outfit just as well as a good pair of shoes. Some affordable places I like to shop for purses is Zara and of course, Aldo!…
*This post ‘How to Whiten Your Teeth That Won’t Cost Much’ is sponsored by Crest 3D White Professional Effects Whitestrips* We all want that gorgeous Hollywood smile, where our teeth can look brand new and pearly white, right? But that Hollywood smile costs thousands of dollars— I know because I looked into. It’s money most of us don’t have, especially me. When Crest came out with their Crest 3D White…
*This post “JcPenney’s Peyton and Parker” is being sponsored by Momtrends and JcPenney** From an early age, I was groomed to be a “Shop ‘till You Drop” kind of girl. My mom took me to all the stores… every day it was a new shopping adventure. One of the stores we frequently visited was https://www.jcpenney.com/g/peyton-parker/N-1b2mynb?pageType=X2H2. It was just huge and had everything you needed; clothes for the whole family, accessories,…
I’ve partnered with @JohnsonsBaby for this Travel Must Haves post. School is almost over here in the east-coast which only means that it’s time to start thinking about travel, if you haven’t already. We have a few places planned like Splish Splash, Sesame Place, hopefully Philly, and of course months of playing with the beach waves. As much as I love traveling, I can’t stand to pack! I’m packing for…
How often do you wash your hair? Ziana came home from school the other day stating some teacher told her to wash her hair everyday. I immediately got snappy and said, “She doesn’t know what she’s talking about.” I took offense- since I didn’t know the tone in which she said it or even why it came up, I ultimately just thought she was calling my daughter dirty. Took a…
I hate the summer and I hate the cold. It’s either too hot to go out or too cold to go out. Yes, I’m one of those people who complain either way and it takes a lot to satisfy me! But one thing I do enjoy about each changing season is buying new clothes, some retail therapy just to get my mind right. I have over a dozen coats and…
When you think of France you can’t help but associate it with the Eiffel Tower, the city of love and the capital of fashion. Anything they wear is always fashion-forward and glamorous in it’s own way. Well, one of the leading baby and children’s clothing retailer in France recently launched online in the United States and at the King of Prussia Mall in Pennsylvania. Who is this leading children’s brand…
Perfect Fall Slip On Shoes for all Outfits I’m pretty sure years prior summer was still around in September maybe even going into October, but nope not this year. The last weekend of August was already getting chilly and I had to already put on long sleeve the following week. Absurd? Well for me it was, but thankfully I thought ahead of time and started doing some fall shoe shopping…
Bring on the Stripes Can you believe this Labor Day weekend was the worst ever? The sun wasn’t out, rain clouds poured over us and chilly came by early to visit. It was the last chance I had to enjoy the beach, which I never made this year. Better luck next year! With the cooler weather now fast approaching it’s only right to start stocking up on new sweaters and…
