Guest Blog: Have you tried Arbonne yet?

I love when I have the opportunity to help & support a fellow boss lady, who also happens to be one of my past brides & is now a very close friend of my mine! So, of course, when she asked me if my clients would be interested in a product that she loves, I thought having her write a guest blog post to tell you all about it would be a great idea! I hope you enjoy….


Meet Darci Flynn … 

I am so excited to be guest blogging for Inked Events & my dear friend, Tracy. I met Tracy like many of you probably did (or will) — she was our rock star wedding coordinator extraordinaire for our Portsmouth wedding in September 2015. We live in Chicago, so having a wedding coordinator in NH that was helping us, was a LIFE SAVER.


We still may be 1,000 miles apart but Tracy has remained a friend. We catch up every time we’re home for the holidays and of course, chat in between. If you’re new to the Inked Events family and have heard her say “you’re a friend for life,” she means it and it’s oh so worth it.


So, my wedding is over and you’re probably wondering why is this girl blogging? Aside from my full time job as a social worker in Chicago, I run my own health and wellness business through a company called Arbonne. I launched my business in 2014 as I was in the middle of planning my wedding and thinking about my future. Having residual income to put towards our wedding, honeymoon, future plans of having children (someday!) and buying a home (purchased July 2016!) was something that really intrigued me. Three years later, I am loving having this financial freedom and get to work alongside some amazing people…. PLUS I still get to partner with Tracy! Great life, right?


So what is Arbonne? We are a botanically based health and wellness company that has fostered pure, healthy lifestyles for over 35 years. From skincare to cosmetics to a whole nutrition line including Sports nutrition, Arbonne has something for everyone. Whether you are planning your wedding, attending a wedding or recently married, there are dozens of ways to utilize Arbonne’s products. They make great gifts (for bridal parties, Mother’s/Father’s Day, graduation presents or simply a birthday) and of course, there are must-haves for yourself. But, this is a wedding blog, after all, so let me share some of my favorites that I swear by for your big day!


Glowing Skin

On my wedding day, my cheeks hurt from smiling so much and I was overwhelmed by the cameras — professional and friends/family snapping photos. Of course, you want your skin looking its best for the hundreds of photos you’ll be in, not just on your wedding day but at your bridal shower, bachelorette/bachelor party and rehearsal dinner. Arbonne’s skincare lines are free from harsh chemicals and we have a variety of formulas for each skin type.


My personal favorite is the anti-aging RE9 line but if you have super sensitive skin, I would recommend the Calm line. Don’t worry guys, we have an RE9 Advanced skincare line for you too!


Eyes, Cheeks, Lips, Oh My!

Celebrating marriage and a lifetime of love goes far beyond the big day. Engagement photos, celebratory parties, bridal shower, bachelorette party, the rehearsal dinner, and of course your wedding day. The following three products are my go-to’s that quickly make me feel pretty without going over the “simple” look I want to maintain. These also make for GREAT gifts for your bridal party, mother/mother-in-law, or even for the brides in your life to gift for their upcoming festivities.


It’s a Long Story® Mascara

I have tried a variety of mascaras and always found my disappointment was due to clumping, not lasting all day or irritation of my eyes. But then I discovered Arbonne’s It’s A Long Story Mascara® and it was love at first try. It elongates my lashes, making them look full and my eyes pop plus it doesn’t irritate my eyes despite staying on all day.


Glow On Bronzer

A few dabs on the cheeks and I was looking sun-kissed and ready. Doesn’t cake on, doesn’t look like I was trying out for a Jersey Shore remake, and it stays on all day!


Smoothed Over Lipstick

Our newly formulated lipstick was not just a must-have on my wedding day, but it is in my purse every day! These lipsticks glide on so smooth and stay on! They are botanically based so you don’t have to worry about any harsh chemicals every time you lick your lips or eat/drink something.


Healthy life is a happy wife

I know, I know, probably not the saying you’re used to hearing. But health and wellness is something I am passionate about and starting my business three years ago really opened my eyes to what we put in and on our bodies. Arbonne’s vegan, gluten free nutritional line has some of the best products that prepared me to fit into my wedding dress and to feel comfortable and beautiful.


Our plant-based protein comes in vanilla or chocolate and it is my go-to for a quick and easy breakfast. I love mixing it with almond milk, berries, a banana and any greens that I have in the fridge (spinach and kale are always plentiful in our household). Arbonne’s Fizz Sticks are a great substitute for coffee or if you are like me and cannot live without one cup o’ joe in the morning, it’s a perfect pick me up without the caffeine crash at 2pm. They’re delicious, easy (pour one packet into water, stir and enjoy!), and will give you energy to get you to 5pm. After we got engaged, the champagne was popping and the wine kept pouring — everyone wants to celebrate! However, my body was often left feeling run down, so I would turn to Arbonne’s detox tea to fill up on nutrients and re-boost my body.


With over 400 products, I truly could go on and on here, but here are a few more of my favorites: the Liquid Sunshine mineral sunscreen is perfect for your honeymoon in the sun. Our Rescue and Renew detox spa line is a necessity for stressful days of seating charts and picking out linens. Our ABC Baby Care line is perfect once you get the weddings out of the way and your friends start to announce they’re expecting (so fun!).
