2 Pumps

When I saw the opportunity to review Vita Sciences Maxasorb B12 cream I jumped at the chance to try it. I work my artist hands all day with constant washing and no matter how much I moisturize, it can still take its toll and leave my sensitive skin feeling chapped. Plus, Alex's hands have been irritated with small patches of eczema for far too long so it was definitely time to try something new.

As soon as it arrived, we immediately began slathering it on like it was a contest to see who could do it faster. The first thing we noticed was the amazing spearmint-peppermint smell! It doesn't absorb as quickly as we hoped and leaves hands feeling a little "lotiony" but the 2-pump dose goes a long way and is enough for hands and feet. 

Overall, the antioxidant infused formula makes our skin softer with a healthy glow. We've only been using it for a few days, but will definitely continue until every drop is gone. Hopefully, with more time and use, we'll see the full benefits!

The Body

You can barely see it in the last post , so here's a clearer picture of   what I've been working on in my new art studio... not that it hasn't come with little stop your heart stress moments.   The first time I attempted this piece, now referred to as The Body , was mutually as terrifying as it was exhilarating. It was the first full hand drawing I'd ever attempted, and everything was going smoothly until the moment I decided to incorporate oil paint, also the first in my artwork experiences. My grandmother was an award-winning artist, but now, without her wealth of knowledge and go-to advise, this is really a learning/teach yourself process. The drawing was done and exactly how I wanted it, the hair and tights were painted, and the final stages involved adding skin and the completion of the tattoos.   I didn't go in naively, I understood that it would inevitably boil down to the dynamics of trial and error, so I inhaled deeply and began creating my palette.

Jeffrey Campbell x Solestruck Box It Up

I bet many of you heard about (or even entered) the Jeffrey Campbell x Solestruck Box It Up challenge that took place last month that's giving one lucky person the opportunity to score $1000 worth of JC shoes and be the inspiration for the next shoebox design. And while I think they're still in the process of narrowing down three top finalists to display via their Facebook page for voters to decide the grand winner, I thought I'd take a second and share my entry with you! About my design: When I first learned of the challenge via e-mail, I got super excited at the prospect of designing and illustrating something that would appeal to the masses amongst our little shoe-obsessed demographic. I get asked a lot of interesting questions regarding my own shoe collection, so I spent the afternoon rummaging through the multicolored stacks of shoeboxes and paying particular attention the many labeled Jeffrey Campbell. The search for inspiration wasn’t difficult, and soon I knew ex
