Sweatheory REVIEW – Fat Detoxing Shots, Ultrasound & Infrared Saunas

Walking into Sweatheory and off the bustling Hollywood sidewalk where models, the homeless, grimy streets and clean sunshine collide, you will feel like you’ve been transported to a sweat lodge oasis deep in the Scandinavian forest, albeit one with chic merch, far infrared saunas, vitamin IV shots and drips, and fat blasting ultrasonic caviation treatments. Just about everything the LA fashion bloggers, Jetset and regular-ole moms like myself need to prepare for summer. So when the co-founder, Oliva, invited me in to experience Sweatheory’s weight-loss trio (‘B Skinny+’ vitamin shot, a 30-min ‘Body Sculpt’ fat blasting treatment and 1-hour infrared sauna sweat…

Sleep Training Part II – Temperature, Naps & What We Were Doing Wrong

If you read my “How We Got Our 2-Month Old to Sleep Through the Night” blog post, then you know with the help of the Ferber Method (crying + timed check-ins) we were able to get Chloe to sleep through the night at two months old. The problem is it stopped working once Chloe went through the 4-5 month sleep regression; the stage when babies’ sleep cycles begin to resemble adult sleep cycles and they stop drifting directly into deep sleep, but actually shift from light sleep to deep sleep like adults do.

How Jan Marini skincare revived my skin and my love for acids

When the opportunity arose to test and review Jan Marini products for a sponsored post, I was hesitant. I had heard of Jan Marini before and never associated the brand with being “green” and/or nontoxic. But after reviewing the brand’s product offerings and their ingredients to see if there was anything that would possibly meet my requirements – no endocrine disruptors, no fragrances, no harmful chemicals – to my surprise, I discovered Jan Marini offers a number of nontoxic products that are paraben-free, phthalate-free and sodium lauryl sulfate-free. So I decided to test out a variety of products for my skin concerns.…
