The first few anniversaries, birthdays and holidays after a divorce can be rough. You got this! Be gentle with yourself! 🥰

[@dustythorpe9625]

I got divorced 10 years ago and I am happily remarried for the past 8 years. September 8th would have marked my 20th anniversary with my ex husband. I was shocked that I still felt a bit of sadness this year. We got married 3 days before the towers fell. Maybe that anniversary coupled with my would have been 20th anniversary snuck under my emotional radar. The point I’m trying to make is that it does get easier but you still think about the things you once wanted in life. Sometimes it’s a mourning process even years later. ♥️

[@Tracylyn42]

I think a divorce is not just losing the person but your entire future as you saw it for years is also gone. It’s a lot to detest and does take awhile. My ex passed away from cancer so this year’s anniversary date ( Memorial Day weekend} also struck me and missing the future that could have been. But it definitely is easier as time goes by.

[@kellydupree6710]

Your honesty is what sets you apart from so many. I've told you before that your testimony is such an inspiration for others who are going through personal trials... the way you have had to start over, taking risks/chances that I know are scary, yet you are thriving and blossoming beautifully into your own person in your new normal. However, your moments of realness - when you struggle, when you aren't doing the best, and when you need mental health breaks - those are the moments that also give others hope. So often, influencers (as well as everyone else) show all the good and post the awesome stuff, but they omit the bad, the hard, the messy stuff. This leaves people thinking "what's wrong with ME?" or "I'm not as strong as her, so I shouldn't even try." So please know that your moments of weakness are most likely giving those people strength. Giving those people hope. Giving those people reassurance. They can know that the days they have where they can't pull it together, or days when the tears and hurt come back for umpteenth time....are ok. They are normal. They can allow themselves to have those moments and still push through. Climbing a mountain isn't a straight uphill journey... there are many crevices, pits, and valleys that you have to make it through in order to reach the top. So I just wanted to take a moment to thank you and let you know that you most definitely INSPIRE. Much love to you!

[@kellydupree6710]

Oh and also, the only Vit-C I can use anymore is the Biossance Squalene, Rose-Oil + Vitamin C. Adding Squalene products into my skin care really saved my skin. I think I may have been using too many products with hyaluronic acid, and for some reason my skin decided it loves Squalene.

[@needsacrown598]

It super smart of you to listen to your skin. My skin reacts to the craziest stuff. Especially things formulated for sensitive skin. Hopefully you can find a routine that works for you and helps soothe the savage beast of stressed skin. I make sure that I try not to anger the rosacea gods. Once you upset the balance it takes forever to get it back in line. All the love to you along your journey.

I have the Em Cosmetics Cushion Foundation as well. I’ve only used it with the applicator that came with it but also sometimes hate it and sometimes love it so 🤷🏻‍♀️.

[@melissakessler77]

I can’t use vitamin C on my skin either - no matter which brands I try, my skin breaks out terribly. Curology has been amazing for me - it does thanks several months to see results, but I really noticed a difference when I ran out and was without it for several weeks. I’m sure the brand you are using is excellent as well.

[@tiffanycoley]

I've been using Curology for 18 months and its made a huge difference in my skin. I had mild hormonal acne around the chin and cheeks. I have to say its been amazing for me. I only one or two very small pimples once in a while now.

[@aleyshawebb2813]

Love your channel and your open and honest talks about your struggles. I know how you feel about vitamin C except with me it's prescription retinoids. I kept it in my routine for almost a year and no matter what I did my skin was so sensitive and I kept getting dermatitis and overall I looked older and my skin just looked awful. I kept on it because Everyone was saying it's the gold standard for anti aging ( I'm 52) but I'll tell you as soon as I stopped and used a different type(retinaldehyde) my skin is looking better than ever. My point is we as individuals have to be able to accept that not everything works for us. There are alot of alternatives to l-ascorbic acid. Take care of yourself and enjoy life. It goes by too fast to dwell on regret. It took me a long time to learn that!🥰

[@e.poff3432]

On the topic of skin care and acne. I know everyone gives their own advice and we all have different skin, but I have something to consider. As a 35 year that still breaks out, sugar is my main problem. I REALIZED it gave me the deep, cystic acne when I was in my late 20s. No joke, i cut the sugar for a month and noticed the difference. Then one day I ate nothing but brownies and raspberries and kept breaking out for a few weeks. Sugar messes with our insulin levels, it is a thing. I'm clearly susceptible to it, you could be too (I recall a brownie binge since you moved). So I just pay attention and keep my sugar intake "low", since sugar is in everything :( Keeping the intake low really helps and I always pay the piper when I'm in the mood to be a bit reckless with sugar.

[@gillypiexo]

its so hard! how do you do it??

[@e.poff3432]

@@gillypiexo vanity! 😆🤣

[@gillypiexo]

@@e.poff3432 lol 😆 😂 i love the honesty. but i meant like what are your alternatives to sugar and like you said sigar is in everything. so it makes sense to try to cut out the mainly sugar things 🤔 but dude...pie, icecream. what alternatives is there for that? stevia? I don't want an artificial sugar replacement because those have given me headaches so im wondering if you have any info. lol your reply is so much appreciated 💕 keep fighting the good fight!!!

[@e.poff3432]

@@gillypiexo I'm glad you enjoyed my honesty 🤣 But yeah, I really did cut out the sugary snacks. Lots of beverages are loaded with sugar too. So I basically only drink water. Though I have one cup of coffee, while adding in the coffee creamer(about 15 grams of sugar). The coffee is my one fun item a day. I don't bother with sugar substitutes. Simply removing the "obvious" culprits(cookies, candy, ect) from my daily life has drastically helped. But when I do indulge, I just read the label for the serving size and eat the exact amount. So if a serving size is 4 pieces of Skittles for 16 grams of sugar... that's not worth it to me. 16 grams of sugar is a "reasonable" amount, but not for 4 pieces. I will find something else. Or if a slice of pie is 30 grams, I share it with someone(or only eat half). I do it for vanity, but it is beneficial in a few different areas 😉

[@gillypiexo]

@@e.poff3432 awesome info!! Thank you so much for sharing, I'm glad to know that you mostly just drink water, because me too! I will have to do some serious thinking because if I dont eat icecream I start to lose weight. but I also enjoy waffles with syrup with my soy chicken for breakfast 🥲🤦‍♀️🤷‍♀️🙇‍♀️🤔 I agree, cutting down on sugar can be so beneficial for your body!!! Bless you Erica! Thank you again 💗

I see you have a KP body scrub in the thumbnail, for any other ladies with the cursed KP, the best thing I have found that was life-changing for me is from Lush. It's called the Buffy Bar, it's like a scrub and skin conditioner in one and it's affordable, smells good, and Lush is a pretty ethical company imo. Better than most at least. I've tried AHA products for it in the past and the Buffy bar is way better I use it all over my body twice a week. Makes me both smooth and soft. Never seen a similar product anywhere else either, I pray they never discontinue.
