14,345 Views in One Day—Thank You, Glow Ladies!

 

 




There are moments in this journey that make me pause, breathe, and just feel grateful. Yesterday was one of those days—14,345 views in a single day.

If you've noticed, my URL is bitsandtreats. I started bitsandtreats in 2009 to share the daily bits of my life that I thought ladies like me would find helpful, and the treats that I found along the way that I'd like to share with my readers that I feel would benefit them. I kept the URL as a breadcrumb for my Glow Girls back in the day to follow to our new home - Glow by Lady E.

I rebranded to Glow by Lady E with one simple intention: to share beauty, stories, and little luxuries that make everyday life feel softer, lighter, and more meaningful in this new chapter of my life - a mom and a more mature, more refined woman. 

Back in 2009, I didn't know about stats and analytics. I was mainly engaging with the local crowd. I had local readers who regularly commented. I didnt know that even back then, I already had a following abroad - in the US and Singapore. 

To see this community grow—spanning the US, Singapore, Norway, Germany, Hong Kong, Brazil, Indonesia, France,  Russia, Canada, Malaysia, Sweden, United Kingdom, China, India, Thailand, Australia, and beyond—fills me with so much joy.

Bitsandtreats may have started as a beauty and fashion blog, but Glow by Lady E is not just about beauty or fashion. It’s about the rituals we keep, the alone time we savor, the little luxuries that make our days brighter. And knowing that thousands of you take the time to stop by, read, and connect with me? That’s the real glow.

💌 From the bottom of my heart, thank you. Every click, every read, every moment you spend here keeps this space alive. You are the reason I write, create, and keep pushing forward—even on the busiest days.

Here’s to more stories, more glow, and more moments that remind us of the beauty in the everyday.

With love and gratitude,


Lady E 💖

Soul Notes: For Your Journal Tonight

Come sit with me for a while. I have my journal open, and tonight I’ve been thinking about something I suspect I do more often than I realize. I turn healing into another thing I need to accomplish. I want to know when I’ll be over something. When I’ll stop thinking about it. When something that hurt will finally stop hurting. When I’ll feel like myself again. And somewhere along the way, healing quietly becomes another deadline. Another invisible date on a calendar. Another thing I can somehow be late for. But maybe healing doesn’t work particularly well under project management. Maybe there are things I will understand quickly and things I’ll have to revisit again and again. Maybe I’ll feel completely fine one day and unexpectedly tender the next. That doesn’t mean I’ve gone backwards. It means I’m still moving through it. I remember one day, many years ago, when I had fibromyalgia. I lived in constant pain. I just couldn’t get a good day. And then one day, in the office...

Used to the Last Drop: The Ones I’d Already Told You About

  There’s something particularly satisfying about finishing a product you’ve already written about. Not testing it. Not forming first impressions. Not wondering whether I’ll still like it three weeks from now. Finished. My Molang Honey sheet masks and this body scrub both made it all the way to the end. (Finally for the Molang sheet masks, right?) I’ve reviewed both before, so I won’t review them all over again here. But perhaps using something until there is nothing left to use is its own kind of review. Beauty products come through my bathroom rather frequently. Some are lovely for a week. Some get pushed to the back of a shelf. Some simply stop working for me. And then there are the ones that quietly disappear because I kept reaching for them. Maybe an empty container is the shortest review of all. I liked it enough to finish it. If you want to read my thought about these products, just type them on my search bar. —- With elegance and quiet fire, Lady E Founder, Glow by Lady E...

Part 1: I Finally Had Enough of My Dry Feet and Did Something About It

  I have been annoyed with my feet for months. Not because there was anything particularly wrong with them. They were just dry . Really dry. And you know I have a problem with dryness (hello skin, lips). And somehow, despite noticing this constantly, I kept doing absolutely nothing about it. The moment that gets me every time is when I’m waiting for my son at piano class. I’ll sit down, cross my legs, look down at my slip-ons or sandals and there they are. My dry, flaky feet. Then I become painfully aware that there are other people sitting beside me who can probably see them too. 😂 Every time, I think, I really need to do something about this. And then piano class ends, life resumes, and apparently my feet are no longer part of my jurisdiction. Eventually, I had enough. I found this Mond’Sub Chamomile Foot Peeling Spray at KKV and decided that my poor neglected feet were finally getting some attention. The process wasn’t glamorous. There was peeling skin involved. There were bits...
