Welcome to Burpees | Bites | Beauty!

Welcome to Burpees | Bites | Beauty! My name is Jillian Gallagher. I have been living in New York City for almost two years working as a model. Coming from a small town in Pennsylvania, the city can sometimes feel overwhelming. My job requires me to stay in top shape and with so many choices on where to find food or exercise, I find it hard to stick to a routine. A lot of people think that weight management is all about working out, but in reality it’s about being well rounded. Keeping your mental, physical, and dietary needs balanced is the best way to stay healthy for life.


I am someone who likes to try new things and branch out to new places. So, with the help of suggestions from my readers, I hope to try something new everyday. After testing something, I will write a review in order to help my readers find healthy eats, great workouts and natural beauty products. These reviews will give my opinion along with a general overview of the product. As I am going through these products, restaurants and workout places I will give advice and opinions about things I feel may be helpful to my readers. I’m here to help New Yorkers to feel less overwhelmed by underwhelming options and narrow down the ones I find to be the best out there. I can’t wait to explore the city in a healthy way with all of you!

Guerlain’s Bullet #futuretrendpretiction

Not yet a trend but likely to be in the future. The Guerlain lipstick is customized for you. Something that has likely not shown up yet on your social media feed caught my attention the other day when a friend showed me her lipstick. The tube was an unusual shape, almost looked like a large bullet. When I asked her about it she told me that it was by the company Guerlain and she customized the tube in the store. I knew I had to check it out more. On the Guerlain website you can choose between 30 different shades and 15 different cases of the Rouge G De Guerlain, also known as “The Bullet”. All cases have a double mirror that allows for easy application anywhere. The lipstick itself is made up of plant-based polymers and silver microcrystals that create a luminous, long-lasting color. The lipstick will not dry out your lips thanks to the jojoba, a southwestern North American nut, and mango butt er that nourish your lips throughout the day. The first of it’s kind, th...

Post Workout Habits

While working out is always on trend, lately what you do before and after your workout has become even more popular. There are many ways that people have been taking care of their bodies outside of working out but lately there are two ways that have been trending over Instagram. First, Cryofeul located in TriBeca on Colby street. Cryotherapy chambers rapidly cool the body, accelerating muscle recovery and skin rejuvenation. Cryogenically chilled air reduces inflammation and stimulates collagen production. The reduction of inflammation helps to accelerate injury recovery. Collagen helps reduce signs of aging and cellulite. You can see these chambers on the Instagrams of super models such as Karlie Kloss and GiGi Hadid who calls it her beauty “secret weapon” according to NYC & PT. Cryo Skin 2.0 is a new form of Cryotherapy that naturally destroys fat cells, remove cellulite, and reduce signs of aging. CryoSkin 2.o is $350 per session and full body Cryotherapy is $75 p...

Jumpin' Jumpin'

This was honestly one of the hardest workouts I have ever done. Aerospace's areojump class is one that is hard to beat. It was (almost) a full class of jump roping (the silent killer of cardio) coupled with a few toning exercises.  Aerospace is know for training many of the Victoria's Secret models including Adriana Lima. Located in the heart of Chelsea, it is easy to get to from almost anywhere in Manhattan. They offer eight different classes along with a "Training Camp". Their classes include ThinkFast, AeroBox, Aero3, AeroBarre, AeroJump (the one I took), AreoImpact, AeroPower and AeroFly. Aerospace's website descrbes it's training camp as,"Every muscle in the body battles against gravity in this ultimate fitness class designed to enhance endurance, speed, stamina, power, coordination, recall, tone and muscle strength." Sounds like my next Aerospace workout will be taking this training camp challenge!
