A little about this episode:
On this episode of An Extra Dose Podcast, we are chatting with Lela Orr, the designer behind eco-luxury and zero-waste brand, Ferrah. She was also a contestant on the very popular show, Project Runway. We are talking about how she got into fashion, what it was really like being on a reality tv show, where she draws her inspiration from, and more.
Can’t believe November is here! October seemed to have flown by. We wanted to share some October Shopbop favorites with you all. So many good staple pieces for the holidays, and for winter.
You all know we are all about taking vitamins to complement a healthy lifestyle. Even if you eat really healthy and colorfully, you may still be lacking a certain level of vitamins in your body. We definitely supplement with vitamins every day to keep feeling our best.
We found these great and SUPER convenient vitamins from Shaklee a little while ago, and are so excited to share these with you!
What is Shaklee?
Shaklee has been around for quite some time, so you know that that they know what they’re doing. They have been in this industry for over 60 years, and they are actually founded by the creator of the multivitamin in the US!
What is special about their vitamins?
They are beyond organic, and they do over 100,000 quality tests every year on their products ingredients. They screen for over 350 contaminants, pesticides, and impurities.
Shaklee’s products are safe and gentle on the environment. They also NEVER test on animals, and their products are all gluten free.
In addition to vitamins, they also have clean beauty products, and green cleaning products, kids products, and weight loss products.
What is Meology?
Meology is a clinically-backed daily supplement pack that is delivered straight to your door (aka super convenient), and is designed specifically for YOU.
What makes Meology unique?
It is designed for you. All you have to do is take a short assessment aka “Nutrition Matchmaker” on their site. It reveals what you need and why, and then they ship them directly to you in personalized packets. Easy as that!
Their box and packaging is 100% recyclable and made from sustainable wind energy.
What does the quiz entail?
Their quiz is very thorough, and takes things into account like, “what would help me lower my stress levels”, “what could help boost my lagging energy”.
We love that they factor in things like your age, gender, health goals, family, diet sensitivities.
What if I don’t want to take a lot of vitamins?
They actually pick the fewest products possible to meet your needs, and also take into account how they will all interact together.
The Essentials plan includes supplements that are most important, and the Essentials Plus Plan includes foundational supplements, and more targeted solutions, as well as a breakdown of each supplement and the importance of them.
You can also use code ALEXIS10 for a discount!
How long does it take to see results?
Every person is different, but we recommend at least a few months. Also, they do offer a 100% money-back-guarantee, so you can always send them back for a full refund if you’re not satisfied!
Which supplements did we get?
After taking the quiz, they recommended a pack that includes:

A little about this episode:
On this episode of An Extra Dose Podcast, we are talking about our struggle with work/life balance, and things we are trying to implement in our routines to find a better balance. We are also sharing things you didn’t know about being an influencer, including what our days look like and what traveling is really like on sponsored trips. We share about probiotics, including the one we have been taking for years, and the air purifier we use in our home.
We are very much creatures of routine, especially when it comes to our skincare routine. We always, always cleanse our face morning and night. We have been using a few of these skincare/beauty devices for a while now, so we thought we would share a review of a few of our favorites all from Nordstrom.
They have so many different devices you can browse, and our favorite part is that you can order your tool (or anything else on their site), and pick it up curbside in just a few hours! Their customer service is amazing, and we love that they offer free shipping and returns.
First device we are going to share is this PMD facial cleansing device. We absolutely LOVE this one! It helps to gently cleanse your face with over 7,000 vibrations per second using its silicone brushes.
It gives you a deep cleanse, but it also lifts, firms, and tones your skin for a youthful glow. Like we mentioned earlier, we always cleanse our skin, but since we started using this tool, we have noticed that it removes any leftover dirt or makeup that would have been left by a washcloth.
We love that it is made from ultra- hygienic silicone, so it is antibacterial and hypoallergenic. Another cool thing is that it is waterproof, and the head never needs to be replaced.
There are four modes that allow you to cleanse in different ways, and it is super lightweight for traveling, too!
This cryo roller is a game changer! It is made rom stainless steel, so it stays super cool while you gently roll it on your face.
We love that it helps to de-puff, sculpt, contour, and tighten skin, and chills your skin to 45 degrees F, which helps to increase micro-circulation, collagen production, and flush out toxins. Yes, we can all benefit from that!
It helps to constrict your pores for a tighter appearance and also relaxes your muscle tension. We especially love using the narrow side under our eyes for a de-puffing, and on our breakouts to reduce swelling. The wider side is great for your cheekbones.
We have shared about this amazing GloPRO Microneedling Regeneration Tool on our podcast, An Extra Dose many times, and we have our mom hooked on it, too!
It uses 540 surgical stainless-steel micro-needles to pass over your skin to begin rejuvenating immediately. The microneedles create new collagen and restore your skin’s volume. We always use it before applying our skincare products, like serums, so that it can allow your skin products to travel deeper into the skin.
This helps your skin care products be absorbed by your skin 200 times more effectively. It also uses LED red light therapy and helps to make your skin appear firmer, smoother, and younger.
This kit comes with a face and body attachment, and a bottle to sanitize your tool with. We use it 2-3 times a week!
Sweater dresses can be so fun and should be a staple in everyone’s closet. They are so chic, and can be styled so many ways. We are going to be sharing a few ways to wear one for different occasions. These sweater dresses are from Express, and we love the colors they come in, and the different lengths.
