Voluderm, a great procedure to refresh your face

I took the picture above today, just 4 days after I had my Voluderm procedure.

I read so many great things about micro needling and my doctor recommended this procedure to give my skin a new glow. I decided to give it a try so I could tell all my Gurollowers ( that’s what I call all of my beautiful followers) about it here. Continue reading

What I learned on my journey to get fit

After I had my 2 kids, I found myself very unhappy with my weight and the way I looked.

It seemed like the old me was gone and gave place to this new mom looking one. Someone who never took time for herself, never exercised and nibbled all day on whatever unhealthy snacks I could find in my pantry. I’m sure many moms out there know exactly what I’m talking about.

Today obviously I manage to clear my skin from the damage I caused, but to keep it that way I never leave the house without at least sunscreen on my face, as well as on my body on beach or outdoor days. Continue reading
