This is a sponsored post for MBK on their MBK Eye Rejuvenator, however, all thoughts and opinions are my own.
I feel a little like a naughty child for not posting in 2 weeks. Neil and I went on our 10 year wedding anniversary vacation and then it’s been a struggle to get back into the swing of things again, especially with all the kids sports games and activities. It’s back to the grind, that’s for SURE. Anyhoo……one skin care product I have actually been dying to tell you about is the MBK Eye Rejuvenator. I came across the brand Methode Brigitte Kettner on Instagram and scooped up this amazing little tool to try and help these poor under eyes of mine. I have used it for two weeks and wanted to share with you all the details! So, today on CCG, let’s talk about skincare and this awesome MBK eye rejuvenator!
This is a sponsored post for Conair, however, all opinions are my own.
Summer is here and for us, that means taking trips with or without the kids! Over the years, I have learned how much I despise packing and I feel like I am cramming our entire house into suitcases for a three day getaway. It’s nuts! What I have come to learn over time is to cut corners and pack less. Do the kids really need ten pairs of shorts and 7 stuffed animals? I think not. I have also come to terms with the fact that I can’t take every beauty and hair product with me as well. This is where the magical tool by Conair comes in! Today, read about my favorite new Conair product that can style your hair multiple ways!
This is a sponsored post. However, all thoughts and opinions regarding the Vampire Facial are my own.
Last week, I posted an Instagram and video story sharing about the amazing new skincare treatment I elected to have done. Looking back, I wish I took better care of my skin in my twenties. Since I didn’t have the wrinkles or the sun spots at 25, I was naïve to think that not protecting my skin in the sun or using any creams as preventative measures was important. Now in my thirties, I so wish I could turn back the hands of time to make more of an effort to take care of my skin. You just don’t think about that until it’s staring back at you in the mirror, right?! Luckily, there are new inventive procedures and facials out there that are meant to take away some of this sun damage and possibly make you look a bit younger in the process. Today on CCG, I am talking all about the experience I had getting my very first Vampire Facial at the Art of Beauty MediSpa in Danville, Ca.
Today on CCG, I am talking about my favorite haircare products that I am using right now. So many of you continuously ask me about what I use on my hair. Since it has been a hot minute that I have done a beauty post, I figured now was a great time to let you in on my tips and tricks for healthy haircare. I have listed everything I am currently using on my hair, including how I use it below.

SAVE AND SHARE THIS RECIPE! This festive #holidayappetizers is soooooo easy to make and so cute too! Take your Holiday party to the next level with this simple and fun brie recipe!
•store bought frozen roll dough (thaw and let rise for 3 hours)
•8 oz of brie
•1/2 stick of melted butter
•1 tsp minced garlic
•1 tbsp Italian seasoning
•fresh rosemary sprigs
•fresh cranberries
Preheat your oven to 350 degrees. On a piece to parchment paper and a cookie sheet, set your brie in the middle. Place the roll dough balls around your brie. Slather the rolls and Brie in the melted butter (mixed with the minced garlic). Sprinkle seasoning on top and bake for approx. 20 min. Add rose mark and cranberries as garnish once out to the oven. This is such a crowd pleaser and quick to make. We’ve also used fresh dough made by my hubby (he’s the bread baker 🤣) and that works amazing too! Let me know how you like it! Enjoy! #recipereel #holidayrecipes
You guys….it actually rained here today! And it’s cold! I LOVE THIS TIME OF YEAR. It doesn’t exasperate my #potssyndrome 🙌🏻 Today, all 4 kids were home from school and we all played Fortnite together with our neighbors. I love days like today. I didn’t run errands, I didn’t clean anything. It’s been marvelous! Tomorrow will be back to business with family photo session editing, brand jobs and getting my ballet school ready for next months shows. But today, today, I did nothing. 🤣 #mondaymood
SAVE AND SHARE THIS RECIPE! This one’s a MUST TRY! I love pumpkin, I love puff pastry and I love me some cheese!
•one package store bought puff pastry
•mini brie
•pumpkin butter
•egg for egg wash
•cooking twine
•cinnamon sticks
Preheat oven to 375. These will bake for approximately 20-25 minutes. Cut #puffpastry into 10 equal squares, scoop a teaspoon of pumpkin butter on the puff pastry and add a mini brie on top. Close up the dough and use cooking twine to secure it. I tie it around 3-4 times. Brush egg wash over them and bake them for 20-25 min. Use cinnamon sticks for a stem! I have also used cream cheese and goat cheese instead of the Brie! Enjoy! #holidayappetizers #recipereel
#ad #WalmartPartner I’m getting my home ready this Fall for all my overnight Thanksgiving guests with @walmart 🙌🏻 Through this holiday season, I want to make my guests feel at home and as comfy as possible. I have the @zinus 8 inch Cooling Mattress for ultimate coziness. It’s super easy and convenient to set up and feels amazing. Plus, I use @snuggle_bear Blue Sparkle Fabric Softener on my linens to give it that added touch! It’s formulated for longer lasting freshness* #Walmart is my Holiday go-to this season! #IYWYK

SO happy it’s not 100 degrees this week and we’re actually having cooler mornings. It’s Finally Fall! #sweaterweather
Added #Maui to the wall…… can’t wait to add to the collection next trip 🙌🏻🤣
Had to share another landscape photo from our #maui trip. But I mean…..can you blame me?!? Love, love, LOVED our time spent there. #mauihawaii
SWIPE LEFT FOR A LAUGH I thought this deserved a permanent spot on my feed as proof I got @theeneil to do a couples massage while in #Maui complete with an outdoor soaking tub, shower and outdoor Hale for our massage. We went straight from Hawaii to Disneyland and when we got home from our 2 days at Disney and felt like we were 80, Neil asked if we could go get another couples massage. 🤣
Counting down until our next #Hawaii vacation. Last year was our first time visiting (we took the family to Oahu) and we loved it so much, @theeneil and I took a trip by ourselves to #Maui 🌊 Both islands have a completely different vibe but one thing’s for sure, they are both so beautiful. I took this photo of #blacksandbeach at Waiʻānapanapa State Park. We rented a bronco and drove the entire island. It was such a wonderful trip and we’re already trying to make plans for another vacay (still debating on whether to bring the kids or not 🤣).
We flew home last night, spent the night in our own bed and now we are currently driving to Disney with the kids. I’m going to need another vacation after this vacation. 🙈 Really loved our time in #Maui Already planning our next trip… 🤣
@theeneil says he took a @graymalin photo 🤣… how’d he do Gray? So many pretty things to take pictures of here…. #maui
#ad On my daily Target run, I grabbed some of my favorite @Ghirardelli Mint Cookie Milk Chocolate Squares! 🙌🏻 These rich milk chocolate squares are filled with mint and crunchy chocolate cookie bits. And did I mention they’re available all year long, not just during Holiday season. We LOVE all things #Ghirardelli and these are no exception. They make the best treat after a day of mom life! So pick up a bag or two @target
Love when my closet is organized. Does anyone else like to clean their house before leaving for a trip? I hate coming home to a mess, so I clean beforehand! #closetorganization #blueandwhiteforever
Sharing more of my Favorite @julievos jewelry 🙌🏻 The majority of these pieces are from the “Sanibel” collection! I love timeless, classic gold jewelry and @julievos is no exception! They pair well with just about anything and polish off a white button down perfectly! Do yourself a favor and snag a few baubles of your own. #julievos
Whatever your style may be, I think it’s really important to make your primary bedroom a sanctuary. The blue hues really cheer me up each day. I think I read somewhere once that blue is a calming and serene color. Well, that color has thrown up all over my house and I LOVE IT. 🤣 #blueandwhiteforever #blueandwhitedecor
Finally! It feels like Fall! Love this lightweight field jacket paired with my favorite Levi’s. Jacket and shoes are on sale and the price is 👌🏻
