Momcation, Skincare, and Makeup

This mom took a much needed momcation. If you are not sure of what a momcation is, my defintion of it is a solo mom vacation to the location and hotel of your choice for rest, relaxation or whatever you need it to be. This can tend to be a new concept to men/husbands/dads, so you may have to ease them into it. I know I had to with my lovely husband. As mentioned on IG, I had all these preconceived plans to rest, knock out work, etc., and it did not happen. What did happen is that I had some much-needed alone time, and I took some time to explore different skin care products, makeup brands, tips, etc. I accomplished my goal to get my skincare and makeup routine together. I still need to work on contouring, but I am happy with my products and my beginning look. Just an fyi I have sensitive skin, so I have to be mindful of that when selecting skincare and makeup products. Check out the deets of my products below.

Hi! My name is Keri, and I want to welcome you to the little corner of my world. I started this blog as a creative outlet for me to find myself again outside of the roles of being a wife and mom. I want to take you on the journey with me as a tenure-track assistant professor with touches of academia, fashion, and fitness. I look forward to this journey and if you have some of the same interests I look forward to engaging with you along the way.
