Balancing mom life and launching a business is no Balancing mom life and launching a business is no joke!

It was actually my mom who convinced me to have a launch party for @leisurelash . At first, I wasn’t going to do it — because duh, I’m a mom. When do I ever slow down long enough to think about or celebrate me?

But once I picked a date and secured the location, it hit me like a ton of bricks… This is really happening. 🥹

So here I am — throwing a LIVE launch party for my very own beauty brand. Not because I need the spotlight, but because this moment is bigger than me.

It’s for all the moms like me.

The ones chasing dreams between school drop-offs and little league games. 

The ones building something meaningful while raising tiny humans.

This moment is for US. ✨

In The Kitchen: Making Dinner Simple

By: Danielle Skeaton

The Car Seat & Stroller We Chose + Why

Shopping for newborn baby gear is exciting! But, there are so many car seat brands and stroller designs to choose from that it’s easy to become overwhelmed too. And if you don’t know what you need or looking for, you could very well end up regretting your purchase later. 

At the beginning of our search, I knew we wanted a travel system that was:

  • Lightweight for daily use
  • Easy to fold + fit in the truck of our car
  • Stylish and versatile
  • Built to withstand practical wear and tear 

And after doing lots of research and reading several reviews, we finally decided to purchase the Maxi-Cosi Zelia Luxe 5-in-1 Travel System!

We chose the color New Hope Black and I am obsessed with the vegan-leather trim. I also love that the stroller can grow with our child!

Here are the car seats and strollers that didn’t make the cut.

Graco & Evenflo Travel Systems 

I literally almost purchased this Graco Modes Pramette 3-in-1 Travel System because of its affordable price, but I read too many reviews that made me question the quality of the Graco and Evenflo strollers. Many parents were complaining that the wheels were either falling off, breaking, or squeaking within the first few months. 

Doona Car Seat & Stroller

I absolutely love the concept of this car seat that unfolds and becomes a stroller instantly. But, many parents say their babies got too big for it at around 9 months of age. And, for the price, that’s kind of a waste of money. Unless, of course, you’re a travel family. Then, by all means, make the investment!

Nuna PIPA Urbn Car Seat & MIXX Next Stroller 

I’ve always wanted this Nuna travel system because it is first-class luxury and the crème de la crème! All of the safety and stylish features make it so worth the high price tag. But, I’m happy that my Maxi-Cosi Zelia Luxe looks just as stylish for way less! 

I’ll come back and write a full review of our Maxi-Cosi travel system once we’ve had it for a while. So far, we’ve only taken it for a quick spin, but I can already tell I’m going to LOVE it! 

It delivers a smooth ride, the wheels steer nicely, and the padding on both the stroller and car seat are so comfy and soft that our baby girl is going to feel like an absolute princess — I can’t wait!
