The Pros of Working with Walk Through Plans

Current and future homeowners who have built or remodeled know that changes to the design often occur after the fact. These changes often come with big expenses. Imagine being able to experience your home before it’s even built; walking through every room, the hallways, etc. and understanding exactly what kind of space you will have. Walk Through Plans eliminates the need for late changes and modifications so that you end up with a home that is perfectly suited to you and your lifestyle.

For Commercial Clients: Bring your entire team together to collaborate and walk through your project in full, lifelike scale. Cut down on months of meetings, emails, and phone calls while utilizing the state-of-the-art studio to host team and client meetings.

For Builders and Architects: Revolutionize your client interactions and set yourself apart from the competition. Say goodbye to endless showroom visits and vague explanations of what the space “should” look like. Bring their dream property to life right before their eyes.

For Remodelers: Elevate your client experience and bring your designs to life. Identify tight spaces and exact placement of cabinets and islands. Reduce the need for costly and time consuming modifications during the renovation process, ensuring your projects are completed efficiently and to the highest standard.

Fashion

TIP : Don’t be afraid to add color to your spring staple closet. A bold print or hue can be worn many different ways and with any accessory!

Every gal needs that go-to white coverup included in their spring break travel attire. You can throw it over your bikini by the pool during the day or pair it with cute flats and a belt for a casual dinner look.

Having a white staple in your arsenal allows you to play with color through your swimsuit or even a fun tote bag!

Choosing one accent color to pair with the natural tones of rattan is always a safe bet when it comes to your spring break staple wardrobe.

Every woman should have those staple pieces in their travel wardrobe that they’re not only beautiful in but also comfortable and confident!

Opting for a swimsuit that has structure and vertical lines or rouching will create the illusion of a smaller waist and longer torso.

Additionally, black is always a slimming choice. So pairing your suit with a black coverup will only enhance your figure.

Even if the weather doesn’t feel like it, summer is quickly approaching. Although, we live in Kentucky where the seasons seem to change daily, so summer could be here tomorrow, who knows! Before we can swap out our turtlenecks and long johns for flirty sundresses that expose our blinding pallor, our skin needs a good refresher. Grab your wine, grab your lotion, and grab your favorite fuzzy socks, because we’re getting our skin ready to spring into summer!

Staying moisturized is one of the best things you can do for a well-rounded skin regimen, and body-firming products go beyond just keeping your skin moisturized. These creams and lotions work to encourage collagen production and can improve your skin’s texture, helping it to look firmer, smoother, and younger. When choosing a cream, dermatologists recommend picking a formula that contains antioxidants, such as vitamins C, A, E, and B3, and other ingredients like hyaluronic, salicylic, and glycolic acids. Though body-firming creams aren’t the end-all be-all, they can dramatically help the upper layers of your skin look supple and firm. We’ve done our research, and these are the skin tightening creams and lotions we think are worthy of adding to your luxurious skincare routine.

Using iFirm Technology, a blend of peptides, antioxidants, botanical extracts, and a prebiotic, BodiFirm contains a unique, body-specific blend of ingredients to achieve more tonedlooking skin. This product was formulated specifically to address concerns on the body, more specifically the arms, abdomen, buttocks, and thighs, and was designed to sculpt and tone the skin on these areas. While we love the results of this cream, it does have to be applied twice daily and is a bit expensive at the price point of $270 for an 8 ounce tube. Overall, we give BodiFirm an 8/10!

We all know how good retinol is for the face, but it can work wonders for the body, too! Pure retinol and antioxidants help transform dry, uneven skin to soft, firmer-looking skin, while natural butters like shea and plant oils instantly hydrate your skin. The reviews we read for this product were outstanding, with most raving about how well it works smoothing skin, and even as a scar treatment. There’s not much we can say about this treatment that isn’t positive, especially with its price set at $29 and it being fragrance free. Although, we do wish it came in a bigger size than the 4 ounce bottle currently offered. Paula’s Choice, we give you a 9/10!

Mio Fi Ski Routie Duo

This duo contains Mio’s Get Waisted Stomach Firming Serum and Peachy Cheeks Bum Booster Cream, both formulated with Mio’s Smooth Booster Complex. Mio’s products are vegan friendly, powered by plant-based chemistry, and contain cruelty-free formulas designed to naturally firm tone and tighten skin. While you’re getting waisted, this serum will work its magic to leave your stomach area feeling tighter and firmer with hydrating ingredients like Red Marine Algae. Around the corner, the Bum Booster Cream gently exfoliates to improve your skin’s texture and is supercharged with natural firming properties to smooth bumpy areas. While we love that these products come in a duo, we would love it even more if there was a set with all of Mio’s body-firming products. It’s hard to beat this duo’s $44 price, so we give Mio an 8/10!
