My morning & nighttime skincare routine because glazed donut skin forever.
When it comes to sleep–I’m all about the sleep quality versus how many hours I’m actually in bed. I can sleep for 8 hours straight, but I have a really hard time falling into what’s known as the REM cycle of sleep. This part of your sleep cycle is when you dream, process emotions and solidify certain memories–it’s very important for brain function. I could literally go months without having a single dream and after doing a bit of research…
Unless you’ve been living underneath a rock for the last year, I’m sure you all have noticed the current ‘it’ ingredient that’s popping up in supplements, dog treats, recipes, and now skincare products.
