I Get The Hype, But... ✨

5/22 Edited to

... Read moreTrying out skincare products with viral fame can often lead to mixed feelings. From personal experience, using the essence daily for 28 days has shown that while it doesn't work miracles overnight, it does contribute to a noticeable calming effect on the skin. Around week two, I started to see a reduction in dullness and improved skin texture, but it was subtle rather than dramatic. By week three, makeup application felt smoother, suggesting better skin hydration and readiness, though this might also relate to more consistent habits overall. One critical lesson learned is managing expectations. No product can replace the fundamentals of healthy skin care: adequate sleep, proper hydration, a balanced diet, and consistent skincare routines. This viral essence feels elegant and serious, great for layering in a skincare wardrobe, but it requires time and patience for any meaningful results. It's also worth mentioning the psychological impact—sometimes we want to see changes so badly that we perceive them differently than they objectively are. Hence, it’s important to listen to honest feedback and track real progress over time rather than relying solely on immediate impressions or hype. For those considering adding this essence to their beauty routine, be prepared to lower expectations and commit for at least a month. Enjoy the ritual of application and monitor your skin’s response without searching for overnight transformations. Real skin improvement is a journey, not a quick fix.

Trying Dirty Cabbage for the First Time… and I Totally Get the Hype 🤎
I kept seeing dirty cabbage everywhere, so I finally gave it a try. It ended up being smoky, savory, cozy, and surprisingly filling. I made mine with hot Italian sausage, ground turkey, bacon, peppers, and cabbage served over rice. Safe to say this one’s getting added to our dinner rotation. ✨

Chlorophyll hype?
There are some supplements out there that are really good for you, but sometimes they are harder to take because of the taste. Chlorophyll usually comes in a liquid form to consume, but I love that these are packets that I can add to water. I also love that their flavor of which makes it a little b

I don’t get the hype behind the Cyber Truck
I find it so ugly and tacky. Sometimes just because it’s expensive does not mean it’s good. I mean have y’all seen how jaguars and Maseratis have lost their value due to how bad their cars genuinely are. Don’t get me wrong I love teslas but not all and not the cyber truck that’s one thing for sure.

Supplements Worth the Hype: what I buy on repeat 🔁
Again, please be sure you are listening to your own body’s needs and consulting with your physician to ensure you are being safe when trying supplements. Everyone is different and just because something works for me, doesn’t mean it may be the best option for you so please listen to your body 🫶🏼
