Alright, now it’s time for the fun! This post should be called all things that any girl would want!
Nutrition Beauty Supplements
There a ton of them on the market but you really only need a couple of things (in my Dietitian opinion.)
Collagen
A vital protein that actually has research to back up its role in supporting skin elasticity, hair strength, and bone health. Here is a post with a good summary about it.
I wake up early, usually around 5am, so I start my morning with a scoop of collagen, fairlife milk 2% and a splash of half and half as my first meal. Sometimes it fills me up till 7am and sometimes 9am, but it doesn’t give me a buzz and crash like black coffee does.
Omega 3’s
Not all Omega supplements are created equal! Make sure you read this post for a guide to purchasing the right omega 3 supplements!
Eat Real Food 90% of the Time.
Unfortunately or fortunately, this is a gift only you can give yourself. Maybe I should do a post on that? Recently I’ve been thinking about how when people comment to me “you are so into health and fitness, that’s so good for you.” My internal response is always, “what the H did you just say to me? Is there an alternative? What else would I be into disease, pain, and death? Not as appealing as health and fitness in my opinion. But, hey that’s just me, you do you.”
Give yourself the gift of eating real food 90% of the time people!
Beauty Products
And now I have a special treat for you guys! A message from my SIL Megan!
One night over Thanksgiving, Megan and I were giving baby J a bath. I looked over at her and realized her makeup looked THE EXACT same as when she put it on that morning. Let’s just say mine looked the same as when I got up, before I put makeup on that morning. I immediately started peppering her with questions about what kind of makeup she was using. I knew her and my BIL were involved with Amway but never asked about it until then. After talking with her I asked her to send me all her recommendations for products she actually uses. Quick disclosure, Megan is an Amway consultant so if you use one of the links below to purchase a product that she recommends, she will receive a small kickback, this has no effect on the price of the product. Megan helps me out with behind the scenes stuff of Hungry Hobby, it’s turning into a family effort! We all appreciate the support from the Hungry Hobby community and making Hungry Hobby possible, you guys freaking rock!
Hi y’all! I’m Megan and I’m so excited to be a guest on Hungry Hobby! You have seen/heard about me on the blog before, as I am Kelli’s Sister-in-law. I have always wanted a big sister and I got one!
A little bit of background about me: from grade school through college, I had bad acne that greatly affected my self-image–so I can relate with you ladies who might be going through that. I know how much these products have improved my skin, which is why I love sharing them! I have always been on the search for products to improve my skin and help boost my self-confidence. I actually looked into Cosmetology school after I completed college, however, I got my hands on these Artistry products and have been sharing them with other ladies since then. Artistry is one of the top five prestigious skincare brands, made with natural ingredients. My skin has never looked better!
Youth Xtend Serum
I noticed a huge difference in my skin fairly quickly when I started using this serum. I had many acne scars (some mild and a few deep ones), as well as a few wrinkles on my forehead. After a month, I noticed the deeper scars on my face were becoming less visible. I wish I had known about this product years ago!
Ideal Radiance Spot Corrector
Hydra V Cleanser
Hydra V Toner
I have naturally oily skin, which has subsided due to using these products consistently. This line has different products for all skin types, which is really neat! For this post, I wanted to recommend what I actually use. If you need help picking something for your skin type just let me know!
Liquid Eyeliner
This is my go to! It makes the perfect cat eye!
Eye Pencil
I love this liner because it goes on so smooth! I use it below my eye. It lasts all day too, which is awesome when you have a little one in tow (no time to be re-applying makeup!)
Volume Mascara
Light Up Lip Gloss
Awesome stocking stuffer! The light and mirror on it come in so handy! I gave this to all my bridesmaids as part of their gift, Kelli still has hers!
Lipstick
I love this because it lasts and moisturizes at the same time! My favorite color for this holiday season is velvet, which is a dark burgundy.
Polishing scrub
Skin is noticeably smoother after using this scrub. I keep mine in the shower to use in the mornings, it makes my skin feel fresh!
Supreme LX
This is literally liquid gold, as it has gold flecks in it to help your skin look more radiant. I used this on my stomach while I was pregnant and continue to use it on what little stretch marks I have left. It works wonders!
I enjoy helping others find the right skincare system, as well as give makeup tips! I rounded up a few of my favorite skincare and cosmetic items that would make great gifts this year for ladies of all ages. If you have any questions, feel free to shoot me an email at megster0629(at)gmail(dot)com! I’m also on Instagram under megster0629, forewarning: lots of pictures of my handsome little guy!
