When I struggle with my identity as “just a mom,” and wanting to be more than “just a mom,” I have to remind myself that “just a mom” is what my daughter needs. I can’t be everything to everyone or everything but I can certainly be there for her.

And, that requires frequent self check-ins — which is why there’s ALWAYS room for #SelfcareSunday on my calendar! 

I treat skincare as “ritualized healing” — There’s something very humbling about embracing my bare face and exposed skin and all its perfect imperfections. 

My latest blog post is all about the importance of maternal mental health and self-care in the time of COVID. (Link in bio.) Still, I seriously cannot stress enough the benefits of mental health check-ins and self-care for EVERYONE.

How do you practice self-care?

私にとって、スキンケアはセルフケアの一つ。必ず、スキンケアにかける時間を割いて、鏡に映っている姿を向き合いながら、自分の感情を促します。

これからは「母」以外のアイデンティティを探したりするより、「理想のママ」ではない私は、娘のために「ただそこにいるママ」で生きて行きたい•••

茶色いダヴは冬の味方
__________
お風呂の時間が長くなる冬に、乾燥肌はもう悩まない!
⁣
茶色いダヴのシアバター&バニラ(香料配合)は、親子で使えるバスタイムの保湿ケア。肌本来のうるおいを守る「美肌フローラ」も残して洗い、あたたかいシアバター&バニラの香り(香料配合)が安らいだ気持ちになり、保湿成分のシアバターを贅沢にブレンドし、乾燥する冬も濃厚しっとり肌へ導いてくれます。
⁣
If you need us this winter, you can find us in the bathtub! We’ll be giving our skin some serious TLC with this rich blend of nourishing shea butter and shea butter and warm vanilla scented (infused with fragrance) body wash from @Dove.

I was gifted this Comeitto Rice Balm a while back from @comeitto.official and it’s legitimately become my favorite cleansing product!  It’s made from organic rice (“kome” in Japanese) and contains BioDTox, an ingredient made with citrus, aloe and broccoli extracts. It’s a gentle deep cleansing product that removes makeup (even waterproof mascara) without leaving my skin feeling dry and tight✨

According to Japanese clothing manufacturer Styletex, less than 3% of clothes sold in Japan are made domestically. Enter the EDOCOAT, a trench coat that is 100% #madeinjapan, from textile production to dyeing to sewing. (“Edo,” by the way, is the former name of Tokyo!)
⁣
The EDOCOAT goes well with a suit and is suitable for business and private occasions— like after work outings with your little one👨‍👧 It also has a detachable quilted liner and can be worn from autumn to spring.
⁣
#PR  EDOCOAT provided by @tocoomall, an online shopping portal for finely-crafted Japanese products ranging from fashion, health & beauty, and home& kitchen.  Browse the entire ToCoo Mall collection via the link in my bio 👀

Curry is my absolute favorite. But, these two love the sweet flavors like Milk Chocolate found at the American Waterfront, in front of Cape Cod Cook-Off — swipe to see it 👀)

Did you have a wonderful Christmas? Lucky Miss M got everything she wanted for Christmas (purple shoes, a fox family, and plenty of dinosaurs).
⁣
But, to me, this is more than a letter to Santa.
⁣
This list represents all the changes and freedom I’ve encountered since losing my job.
⁣
(When I say “lose” I actually mean, my sexual harassment claim was dismissed & I was given a zero hour contract — nice way to jumpstart pandemic life, amirite?)
⁣
I was angry, hurt, and embarrassed. But, managed to transition from teaching kindy to a new career as a brand consultant/social media manager. (Also, I got profiled in an interview with @BBC100women, too!)
⁣
My schedule varies daily, but nearly every weekday morning starts with a homeschool lesson. 
⁣
I was definitely intimidated with Japanese lessons as I’m not a native speaker. But, seeing my daughter try every day encourages me to try harder, too. (My handwriting still sucks though🤣)
⁣
The first months were HARD but our frustration and tears turned to smiles and laughter. 
⁣
The other day, my daughter even told me she wants to be a mom when she grows up! 
⁣
I was so sure she’d say something like “Shinkansen (bullet train) driver” or “dinosaur,” or “unicorn princess.”
⁣
Genuinely curious, I just had to ask, “Why do you want to be a mom?”
⁣
Her answer? 
⁣
“Because we have so much fun together!” 🥰🥰🥰
⁣
Needless to say, a new chapter has started in my life.
⁣
For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith — and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God.(Ephesians 2:8-9)
⁣
I’m cautious about 2021 but really look forward to to sharing my journey of healing and self-discovery with you✨
⁣
(If you made it this far, thanks for reading!😘❤️✨)

Trying not to get worked up over things you can’t control is easier said than done! At least I’ve got this nifty care package from Korean skincare brand Keep Cool to help me find my inner cool.
⁣
The philosophy behind Keep Cool is “Sophistication in Simplicity,” and its products are based on a traditional formula consisting of 3 key natural ingredients: Chinese Skullcap (Scutellaria Baicalensis), honeysuckle flower (Flos Lonicerae) and Forsythia fruit (Forsythia suspensa). 

Together,  these ingredients cool down the skin, in order to prevent dryness, inflammation and other heat-inflicted ailments.
⁣
Not only do the ingredients sound promising, Keep Cool now uses matte packaging made from eco-friendly soy ink and FSC certified paper.

I’m giving the Soothe Toner and Soothe Mask a go tonight — can’t wait!

「KEEP COOL」(キープクール)とは、心が落ち着くだけではなく、お肌を冷やすことで毛穴の開きを抑え、血行促進などで肌悩みを改善する人気韓国コスメブランド🧖🏽‍♀️ お買い求めの方はQoo10で「キープクール」を検索!
