Giveaway Winner + Five Friday Links

Happy Friday y'all! I'm so happy to say that Stephen is home, currently sleeping and doing great with his recovery so far. Hoping it is going to be smooth sailing from here on! Thank you again for all of your messages and thoughts and prayers. It is certainly SO nice to hear messages from family, friends and even strangers that you are being thought of. This all happened so quick and we really appreciate that effort from y'all. Makes such a difference.

Giveaway winner- congrats to Mikal who won the two mini facials by following missdixie30 on instagram. Please email me Mikal with your contact info! Thank you to everyone who entered!!

I have been so happy to hear from many of you that have been familiar with Rodan + Fields and are considering the products. I wanted to mention that this is a wonderful tool that allows you to get a really quick skincare evaluation based on your needs. It's like sitting down with a derm and discussing what you want to do with your skin! So cool. It took me about 30 seconds. I cannot wait to help you all!!! Yay!! As always, you can email me with any questions and I am more than happy to answer. This is still a major leap for me and I appreciate the feedback, comments, questions and support so much! PS- I am using Reverse with the Micro Roller {also available with out} and the Multi-Function Eye Cream. If you are not ready to start an entire regimen, give the Eye Cream a try! I'm one week in and I can tell a difference! {note: so popular this item is selling out}


Onto some Friday ramblings....

I'm all about no-cook recipes for summer meals, I definitely want to try some of these out.

Browse ten things from Target's dorm room collection you can use in your own home. I especially like this pouf

How good does this tomato grilled cheese look? Mmm.

I loved browsing these Southern front doors. {Ours really needs an update!}

How cute are these tassel booties? The color is gorgeous too.

Linking up to Five on Friday!





Hope you all have a great weekend.

A new business venture....{and giveaway!!}

Well y'all, I can't wait to share today a biggg leap I made last week. This is something I did not take lightly and I thought about it a long, long time. Let me give you some background on me to start. My sweet mother-in-law owns an adorable gift and book {and clothing!} shop here in our town and I have been the manager for the last five years. I seriously, love my job. We go to market a few times a year, are always scouting the newest and best, and have a really fun working environment. It has been extremely wonderful to have a flexible environment while having a little one. I used to work five days a week, and now I am "in the office" a few and working from home the other days. That job is not going anywhere, it is a dream job really. 

Let's switch gears. One thing I have really started to pay attention to over the last year is my skincare. I swear, once I turned the big 3-0 it was like I started noticing tiny baby wrinkles more and more. Being a tired Mommy doesn't help either ;) The ONE thing I have used in the past year that yielded amazing results was the Rodan and Fields line. There are four regimens for all sorts of skin needs and everyone can find one they fall into and see major results. I chose the reverse and it has been the one thing that has impacted my skin's appearance. 

(after about 6 weeks of reverse I could really tell a difference in my skin tone)

I eventually ran out of my regimen and have missed it since {I do not recommend this! Totally pinching myself for letting that happen} Several months later, a good girlfriend from college contacted me asking if I had ever thought about the opportunity to be a consultant for the line. This was at Christmas, I was in the midst of big renovation projects and there was no way I was tacking that on my plate! Fast forward several months later, my Mom mentions to me she ordered Rodan and Fields {redefine regimen} and was excited to start seeing some results. For whatever reason, right around the same time was when I started re-thinking the whole consultant thing. After a good long nine months or so of thinking, I just decided to go for it. What do I have to lose? I made a small investment that I think will turn into something I can be proud of and work for, all at the same time helping others with their skin and my own. Win-win. Now, like I said, my management/buyer/merchandising job is not going anywhere- this is simply something I can do to fill in with extra pockets of time. And, lets be real, I will always want to provide for my family, and any way I can help to do that is extremely satisfying. I am considering myself very lucky to have two flexible jobs right now and still be able to spend time with my son and husband!


So, I am ready to jumpstart this business and really help others. HERE is my website :) Skin problems, wrinkles, blemishes, uneven skin? We can help. Please note prices on the site are retail, and when you sign up to be a preferred customer you are getting a discount, which I can discuss with you! HERE is a great site to see REAL results. You will absolutely have results with Rodan + Fields. I am NOT a fan of gimmicky sales things so please do not doubt me y'all, I swear! The team I am working under has been so helpful getting me started, there for every question and need. I know some people do these kinds of things just to sign someone on, but that is not the case here. If you are thinking about this kind of business at all, please message me!!! Here is a small example of why I joined this team. This is the former CEO of Smashbox Cosmetics and she is now in charge of her own R and F business. That's insane y'all! Here is what Rose Gall-Rojas has to say:  

"I'm not saying normal is bad. I'm saying it's not all there is. I am thankful for change. Here's my new normal: No boss, no long commute, no glass ceiling, no office politics, no pink slips, no working through lunch at my desk, no 60-hour work weeks. I work to live instead of live to work, I vacation when I want, not when my boss says I can, I'm providing a will-able asset for my kids, I will retire worry-free, I give back in a bigger way than before, I volunteer for causes that I'm close to, I help others create the same thing for themselves and their families, and I'm happier."


Of course, don't worry nothing is really going to change on Miss Dixie. I love this little space I have created and can't thank y'all enough for returning to read each post. It really means so much to me. I promise it won't be changing, and I will wait for your feedback on what you would like to hear about in regards to R and F,  and there will be a button on my sidebar, and I might mention some great deals ever so often! 

SO....In order to celebrate this new venture, I am doing a giveaway {duh, of course!} The giveaway is a set of 2 mini facials- one for you, one for a friend. Each facial includes a microdermabrasion packet, night renewing serum and lip renewing serum. The microdermabrasion is one of my favorite things ever! Please see below and feel free to email me with any comments or questions!!!
