Our Daily Routine

Including skincare products & Tips!

Hello friends!

I have so many topics that I plan to write about but, honestly guys, sometimes this gets tough! Not too long ago, I asked for suggestions on what you would like to see on the blog and you sent me so many great ideas!  Before I had a blog I’d see all the bloggers that I follow say, “Sorry guys, no posts have gone up because I haven’t had time, life got in the way, etc. I have to admit, in my mind I’d think, “How hard can it be to make a blog post?”  Well, lol, here I am, and let me tell you it’s not easy! It truly takes time and inspiration!  If you follow me on Instagram you know how busy I am – I’m always on the go! So, I thought for this blog post I would write about my daily skincare routine.

I’m also going to add some of my current favorite products that I use and link them here to make it extra easy to find them.

So, here it goes!

Before school

On a normal day, it starts with waking up at 7am. I begin by waking up JoJofor school. Anyone that has a teenager knows this can take some time!  Meanwhile, as I’m yelling to JoJo to, Get up please, shower, brush your teeth, do your hair, etc.”, I will usually throw in some laundry, if needed. Next, I take Cruz to the bathroom, change Jia’s diaper, make our bed, etc. Before we head out the door at 8am, I usually make JoJo a bagel, a breakfast burrito or, sometimes he goes for some mini muffins.

After School Drop-off

After school drop-off, I always go to get my Starbucks, unless I’m going to the gym. Since I’m  asked so often, my go to basic Starbucks drink is a Venti Iced Coffee, no classic, 4 pumps vanilla, and the creamer on the side. I like to add the creamer myself so that it is not more creamer than coffee.

Next, this is where the day can go anywhere!  Typically, if I have a lash client I go home and make Cruz and Jia food and then do the dishes and shower. After my shower I always prep my face but I do not wear makeup eery day.

cleanse

My current favorite products to use are @Bliss Makeup Melt Face Wash, along with their makeup remover wipes.

tone

Next I basically drench my face in the @traderjoes Rose Water or  @glowrecipe Watermelon Glow Ultra-Fine Mist this smells like pure heaven.

moisturize

Next, I use @mbyork.beauty Vegan  Marine Magic moisturizer.
If I do put on some makeup for the day , it’s super simple . A couple foundations I use are @maybelline Dewy Smooth Fit Me, or Sephora’s foundation.

define

I always love me some bronzer , my current fave is the matte bronzer by NYX Cosmetics. Last but not least I’ll fill in my brows with benefits @benefitcosmetics browzings.

Before school pickup

Next in my day, depending on if I have a client or not, I’ll always cook lunch for Joey and the kids. Then, by 12:30/1, I try to work on a nap for Cruz and Jia. Naps don’t always go as planned around here – I swear they run on never-ending batteries. I leave by 3:20pm to pick up JoJo from school.  This also depends on if he has his tutor or not. And, every other Monday he gets his haircut after school. For those of you who as, he gets his done by Ed at The Manner in Scottsdale (@ed_thebarber).

After school pickup

Depending on our schedule, once we get home I will start to make dinner. On Tuesdays and Thursdays, JoJo has football practice.  If Joey has work to do or an event I usually take JoJo to practice which runs from 6:30 to about 8:45 . During practice I’ll usually kill some time with the kids at Target or Micheals and then we head back to watch the last 45 min or so of practice.

End of Day

Then we come home and do bath time and bed.  If it’s not a practice night, I try to have them asleep by 9pm. By now my day is pretty much done and I’m exhausted!

As soon as the kids go to bed I try and go watch a show with Joey and catch up on our day before he heads to bed. Lastly before I go to bed I’ll go downstairs and make Joey’s breakfast and prep a tea for the morning.

If I’m not too tired, this is now when I’ll work on blog posts, watch one of my favorite shows, read an inspirational book, or journal.  I’m currently reading Girl, Wash Your Face by Rachel Hollis.

And that, my friends, is a typical day for me. Not super exciting but it is mom life for sure!  It gets very hectic around here with clients, school, football, doctor appts, ortho appts, tutors, etc. We’re all doing the best we can and I go with the flow for whatever works best for u.
Feel free to comment or message me if you have any questions or you want to share about your daily schedule with me! Until next time, friends!
