Mom Hacks



So, I was out a few nights ago with a bunch of girlfriends; I know! I couldn't believe it either...& it was a Thursday night- SHOCKING! Anyway, I digress.... I started giving fun little tips & my friends decided that I should do a blog post about my "Mom Hacks." I am sure you have heard of some of these and/or even do them yourself. Either way- humor me...

1. DAWN soap combined with water in a small water bottle works as an awesome stain remover.
2. Dawn soap with a soft baby toothbrush is perfect for cleaning jewelry- especially diamonds.
3. Licking your fingers before trying to pull up tights or stockings will help you get a better grip.
4. Putting your alarm clock in the next room will ensure that you get up & not just roll over, turn off your alarm & go back to sleep.
5. Using RF soothe #2- sensitive skin treatment right after shaving will prevent razor burn.
6. Spraying your hairbrush wth hairspray before brushing your hair will prevent fly-aways & frizz
7. Rubbing a dryer sheet on a piece of clothing with static will get rid of the static
8. Putting foundation on your lips prior to applying lipstick will prolong the wear of the lipstick
9. Warming up the eye lash curler with the hairdryer before curling your lashes will increase volume & curl dramatically.
10. When out of eye make up remover use baby shampoo on a wash cloth with warm water to remove eye make up.

I would love to know some of your Life Hacks! Please comment for a fun free gift from me!

New Year Refresh

I t’s that time of year when the holidays are over our holiday Decor is put away, hopefully! Your home is clean & quiet & let’s face it- we’re stuck in the house right now due various reasons. So, it’s a great time to reevaluate and refresh. I find that if I don’t go through my things, refresh and get rid of things that I don’t need or use; think those fancy underwear that you bought that were so uncomfortable that you never wore them!  That being said- Let’s get rid of the clutter and keep the things that we feel our best in! If we learned anything in 2020 it was to live our best lives. I like to take the end of January/beginning of February as a time to go through my things. I start with the most important; my “intimates”… Meaning bras underwear pajamas and of course my robe! This week at Smooth Styling with Corinne we are going to explore all of these! We will talk about underwear/panties (I hate that word)... bras/bralettes/sports bras, pajamas- I will Share with you my fav

"I am going to go shopping when I lose 10 pounds." "I just started this new nutrition/fitness program- once I am in the shape, and the size, I want to be I am going to buy the jeans I have been wanting." "Once I lose my baby weight I am going to go on a huge shopping haul." "I am not buying any new jeans-I have been holding onto my favorite skinny jeans and I am going to fit into them again!" I can not tell you how many times I have heard these things from friends, family, clients-I have been there- I literally worked my butt off after having my daughter 7.5 years ago. I was determined to lose my baby weight and fit into my pre-baby clothes and I did it, don't hate me. It was so much work and guess what...it was completely unmaintainable. I stayed at that weight for about 5 months before the weight began to creep back up because...  Because it was the holidays...Because I have a family...Because I have a full time job...Because I enjoy drinki

What's in My Closet...???

  I have been thinking deeply about how the "staples" of our wardrobes have changed in this past year; as most things have. It is always fun and absolutely necessary to add new trends and have fun with color, texture & pattern within our wardrobe; however, it is essential that we have a foundation for these exciting pieces to be a part of. Think of a new house- the fixtures; like the kitchen cabinets and the bathroom tile are so important as a way to show the homeowner's style & personality. However, you can't have those beautiful "add ons" without the foundation of the house in place.  The "staples" of your wardrobe are the foundation, just like the house, and the fixtures are "add ons," they add character, personality, spice! Wardrobe staples used to be boring-  Black slacks, a white button down shirt, a black shoe They have always slightly differed & evolved with the times- but 2020 definitely pushed us into a whole new wor
