Burning Daily... Daily Burn | Beauty with the Baby | Denver Mommy Blogger

Remember that new year new you plan you started for yourself last month... Oh yeah, that one... The eat more rabbit food (check out that little kick ass blog here) wash my face every night and work out 5 days a week... plan. Yeah don't worry, I fell right off course there right along with you. Valentines day snuck in with those heart shaped candy boxes then those darling little devil girl scouts came ringing my door bell the next day. Man, can I catch a break? 

A few weeks ago, my sweet Friend keziah and I decides to keep ourselves accountable. We both are stay and home mamas. That also means were stay at home career women. Nap times are getting shorter so the times we can actually work out are few and far between. In came Daily Burn. The first month is free and there is zero commitment except for the one you're making to yourself about your goals. You can choose your level of experience and the time that you can set aside each day for your workout. Enter a few things about yourself and off you go.

The workouts are definitely challenging. But i have found that the instructor's really keep you motivated. The clock counts down so you know how much more you will have to give, which really gives me the light at the end of the tunnel moment while I'm huffing and puffing, all while my cat is staring at me. Judging me. I know cat, 20 more pounds ... I got this. 

Start with a friend or join me!! If you want someone to keep you accountable, shoot me an email... I'll add you to my "did you burn today?" list.. 

The pressure is on for that summer baby swim lesson bikini. Let's help each other!!

Easy Valentines date night makeup | Beauty with the Baby | Denver Makeup Artist

Valentines weekend is here!! Hope you all are gearing up for a date night! Either with your special sweetie, a new prospect, or a night out with your gal pals... This is an easy look for you to turn your day makeup look into night.

For this look, I really just did the same look as my 5 minute makeup look from a blog last month. But I added a few new details to amp it up a bit. 

I added the wing to my liner. Maybelleen Gel Liner, as always. But I also used the get liner on my water line on the bottom. This will close up the eye a bit, but it will add a mysteriousness. It will also makey bright eye colors pop. 

I also took a tiny bit of a loose pigment all over the lid. This one is a Lady Bird pigment with a rose gold tone. To be honest, I think this line is out of business. But MAC has so many beutiful pigments that will last you for years,... truely, years. Then of course I added a red lip. This one is LAsplash cosmetics in Poison Apple. Its a matte liquid lip, and it legit stays on all night. Sometimes I'll add a MAC glass over the top to keep my lips from drying out... but the color is fab.

Don't mind my poor lip lining, it was a two baby day during shooting. Never leave the house with crooked liner... Or do and blame it on your kids, like me. Totally acceptable.

So many easy ways to extra sexy up your makeup look... Just stear to the side of darker and deeper. You will always stand out in the crowd. Make the night memorable.

Valentines day cookie date | beauty with the baby | Denver mommy blogger

Because everyone needs a dose of unbelievably heart bursting cuteness. Just in time for Valentines day. 

The big day is full of red and pink things, chocolate, flowers, cinnamon candy hearts, and long dinner waiting lists.

So let's skip the crowded and noisey restaurants. Grab a blanket and some milk and cookies and have a little picnic in the park or even your backyard.

Just try not to steal to many of his cookies... But if you're lucky, he'd rather have the milk anyways.

All girls love shinny sparkly jewelry. But we also love a good savings account for a beach vacation. I myself love receiving hand written letters, and photos to cherish. This adorable little hearts from Target double as envelopes.

There's really nothing better that spending the day with your sweetie. Nothing has to be fancy. Just put on your cutest donut print pants, and wear your heart on your sleeve... or front and center.

If you're having a fancy dinner, in or out... a horse drawn carriage ride through downtown... swimming in a sea of delivered flowers... or swimming in a sea of beer and margs with your besties... just spend it with the ones you love most. 

We'll be spending it with cookie faced kisses, soy milk mustaches, and plenty of baby snuggles. 

Happy Valentines day!

Rosey Cheek Glow | Beauty with the Baby | Denver skin care

My love for hydrated skin is on another level. Hydration is the key for keeping your skin looking fresh and youthful. So many people work so hard to get the oil off of their skin. But they really should be finding a way to balance it out.  

Your skin is on overtime to overcompensate for the oil free products you are using. Oil free wash, oil free moisture, and even oil free foundation. When all along, the good, natural oil just keeps our skin healthy.

Its the over compensating oil that gives us breakouts, among other things.  Pollution, dairy, hormonal imbalance, stress, and non clean foods can also do the damage. See an esthetician before a dermatologist. It could be as easy as a rebalance.

When clients as me what they should look for in a product, first thing is vitamin c. It does the same thing for your outsides as it does for you insides. Cleans, refreshes and helps build up a defence.

Image skin care put my favorite two things together, vitamin c and hydration. It has enzymes in it too for the perfect match of all your skin care needs. 10 minutes twice a week with this mask. Your cheeks will be rosey, glowing, and perfectly hydrated. Some veteran mask users can leave this mask on like a moisturizer at night time for the ultimate glow the next day.
