miracle mask

fresh has become my favorite skincare brand. and it all started with this baby.

from the site: Fresh® Umbrian Clay® Face Treatment is highly effective and versatile. It can be used as a daily purifying face cleanser or an instant detoxifying face mask.
A high concentration of Fresh's proprietary Umbrian Clay® ingredient imparts the formulation with anti-inflammatory and absorbent properties. Fresh® Umbrian Clay® removes toxins, decreases skin irritations, reduces breakouts and aids in the regeneration of healthy skin cells. Fresh® Umbrian Clay® Face Treatment is enhanced with stimulating white nettle, gentle chamomile flower, purifying olive leaf extract and lavender water. Regular use of the Fresh® Umbrian Clay® Face Treatment will detoxify, tone and improve the overall condition of the skin.

In addition to what the product says it will do.. it blasts away pimples! If I see one starting, i'll put a dab of this miracle mask right on top of it. when i wake up in the morning.. that sucker is gone.

knubbig table lamps


my favorite store to buy well-priced modern items for my home is ikea. this store never ceases to amaze me.

on this particular trip to the store, i uncontrollably blurted out, "oh my gosh i have to have to own at least four of these." what caught my heart's eye? these table lamps.

they are everything i ever wanted in a lamp. yes they are just lamps, but i love them! i have a current obsession with cherry blossoms, so you already know which ones are my favorite.

$16.99 (large ones) or $8.99 (smaller ones) : ikea.com

travel coffee press

i am one of those people who are dependent on coffee. if i don't have my coffee in the morning, the migraine rolls in. anywho, i love love love this bodum travel coffee press.

ask any coffee aficionada, they'll tell you the best way to make your coffee is with a coffee press. and with this nifty gadget, you make it and go. no more making coffee in the press then pouring it into a travel mug. that means you only need to wash one thing instead of two.. and that makes me happy.
