I have been a follower of your blog for a while and it humors me that you will be having a baby tomorrow and today you are acting business as usual…haha. I am sure in your head and off the blog you are doing crazy prep work, it just seems funny because I would be saying something about it in every post. Good luck tomorrow and have a great last day as a family of two.

It is sooo cute … I thought in your last video “Oh, yeah, now she is really in here late pregnancy…” because you have trouble with your breath. So, and now today you are talking so sweet about it … Also, my first thought today: “Oh, sure she is delivering her baby tommorow – the only thing I could do is beeing really nervous – and she, she is doing another video.” I love it!!!

I love that ginzing eye cream! I get very bad psoriasis around my eyes and it’s the only thing I can use that really helps soothe it and doesn’t burn 🙂

Wishing you much happiness as you welcome your son into the world today! I am a newborn hearing screener and even if I am having a bad day I go into work and see this precious little life that God created and it puts it all back into perspective. Merry Christmas to you and your family!

Side note, Mary Kay has a new skinvigorate cleansing brush for only $50 where other brands are upwards of $100 and more. I love mine and use it twice a day. I am amazed even after using good skin care (Mary Kay) for years how much makeup was still being left on my skin after cleansing. Ew! Also curious to your thoughts on using multiple different brands of skin care products versus using the same brand which are formulated to work together versus as I call it “hodge-podging” and being disappointed with the results.

Congradulations on your son tomorrow! Good luck! 🙂 before you go though, I have a question about primers. Most primers that I have used have a dry feeling to them, nothing moisturizing at all ( I don’t know if that is possible for a primer to be). I know primers are very important, do you have any suggestions?

Praying for you and your little family today as you prepare and tomorrow when you join the amazing journey of motherhood. In an instant, you will have a deeper understanding of how Good loves His children and your beautiful son will show you that more and more every day. And be prepared to fall in love with your husband in a whole new way when you see him become a doting daddy! Praying for wisdom for your doctors and a safe and happy delivery for you and your sweet boy.

Kate, I am SO excited for you to experience the absolute miracle of becoming a mommy! It is truly God’s most wonderful gift to us! Being a boy mom is especially fun and exciting…I have three little boys and 1 little girl. And there is something super special about a boy/momma relationship. Will be praying for an easy delivery and fast recovery time for you!!

Also, I want to say thanks for all the hard work you do to put together this blog. I have used so many of the products you recommend for hair, skin, and makeup and I am never disappointed. 🙂 I did recently decide to find a full skin care line to target some fine lines and wrinkles (gasp!) as well as treat some acne breakouts. I decided to try out Rodan + Fields clinical skin care line. I LOVE IT!! In fact, I love it so much I decided to go ahead and sell it! It comes with a 60 day money back guarantee so its totally risk free and it has changed the way my skin feels and looks. They have this incredible exfoliator too that I thought would be similiar to my Clairsonic. Oh my the MACRO-E is awesome!! Anyway, if you are ever interested in giving it a try, let me know and I would love to send you some free samples of what we have. You can go to my website to check out what we offer. It is cassiegriffin.myrandf.com or you could reach me at my5griffins (at) gmail . com.

Praying for you and your sweet Christmas baby!! 🙂

Whew. I have been waiting for this video for a long time lol. I’m always trying to find a better exfoliant/mousturizing/cleaning combo. I feel like I switch products all the time. Right now I use St. Ives Timeless Face Lotion, which has given me zero breakouts. I’m definitely going to look into the philosophy products that you mentioned.

I had to laugh at your “out-of-breath-ness”. I can so relate. Its like the moment you turn 12 weeks pregnant (and beyond), and your baby is only the size of an almond, you begin to feel like you must’ve gained 500lbs overnight and going from sitting to standing sounds like you actually tried to climb the Empire State Building. Enjoy your huge breath of fresh air tomorrow! You will be cuddling your sweet boy in less than 24 hours! Very excited for you and praying for health and ease in all things.

I’m a huge fan of most philosophy products – from skincare to makeup to body stuff. I have used purity for many years and added the exfoliating a few years ago. I use the purity at night to remove my makeup and the exfoliating in the morning on makeup-free skin.

Girls, use your eye cream!!! I started around 30 but I wish I had started earlier. That skin is tender and needs love.

Now go have that baby boy!

You mention some really great products! I’m also a fan of Pond’s Original Refresh Wet Cleansing Towelettes. I use them to take my makeup off all the time. They are great because they can take eye makeup off without irritating my eyes and they are pretty reasonably priced.

Another skincare item that I really love is natural sunscreen to protect my skin from harmful uv rays. I think wearing sun screen year round is essential and I love this product because I know there’s no harmful chemicals in it.

Check out this, I use it everyday!

Acne is a common skin condition It causes spots to develop on the skin, usually on the face, back and chest. Acne is known to run in families. The spots can range from blackheads and whiteheads which are often mild, to inflamed pus-filled pustules and cysts, which can be severe and long lasting and can lead to scarring.

Suggested Practices: Keeping your skin clean is important to prevent new spots developing. Wash the affected area twice a day with Mindfulminerlas.com# Dead Sea Mud Soap# twice a day, plus dead sea Cleanser# three times a week, but do not scrub the skin too hard to avoid irritating it; also we suggest bi-weekly mud masks Although acne can’t be cured, it can be controlled with suggested mindful minerals# natural treatments.
