Pregnancy and skin care

Your skin really changes during pregnancy, well, everything in your body changes!! Some things are better like hair and nails and other things are worse, like my skin. Under normal conditions I have normal to combination skin and my regimen is pretty simple, rinse and apply sun protection in the morning. Cleanse and lightly hydrate at night. Exfoliate in the shower and apply a mask once in a while. But now its all messed up!! I have pimples, borderline acne, oily skin, blackheads and whiteheads as well!
Thankfully I have access to the best skincare products on the market and I was able to get a hold of the situation pretty quickly. I've been using the Zorah organic products with argan oil. They have this new line for oily skin that I am in love with! There is the cleanser Kaïla with elderflower and also Inua, the matifying lotion with hemlock plant. The combination of these two products has been my lifesaver. My skin actually looks normal! The cleanser is in gel form but it doesn't lather too much and doesn't completely degrease your skin, which is great because to more you remove the more your body makes to compensate. The hydrating and matfying lotion is also great because its not heavy at all. Its a light formula that helps regulate your skins sebum production.

Dans ta bulle is expecting again!!!

Haven't posted in a long time, I've been swirling in the whirlwind of being a store owner. Its been fun. Many changes here at the 316. We revamped the whole place, changed up the decor and most of the selection of products in the boutique. Searching for fun new lines to bring in is really my favorite part of the job.
Aside from all the big and small changes at the store, there has been a huuuuge change in my own life. We found out in March that I am pregnant! Yaay! Such fun news! My son will be two years old when I give birth, they will grow up together and play, fun-fun! But the real curve ball came when I went for the first ultrasound in May...turns out that there are not only one, but two little bundles of joy inside my belly! Double yay? I am not sure! I'm sure going to have my hands full come December with a toddler and two newborns!!
