Friday Faves

Time for my Faves! I almost posted my rechargeable lights again, they are so great I love them everyday!    I’m bringing you some, Elizabeth! 1) CYKLAR Body Oil in Vanilla Verve  A friend of mine told me about this body oil in a different scent. I’m not a vanilla girl, but one of the reviewers said it was a different, more grown up vanilla, and she was not wrong! I love this scent and it goes on nicely and you don’t feel oily all day. 2) The Night Manager  I don’t know how we missed this series the first time around (2016). I guess we weren’t really sitting down for shows back then. We have finished Season 1. We started Season 2 which actually came out January of this year. Ten whole years later. It’s really good too. I wonder if we’ll have to wait until 2036 for Season 3… 3) Steve Madden BigMona Raffia Sandals  My daughter in law, Corinne wore these on our trip to Kenya last year, and I had to copy her. Honestly, I didn’t wear them for the first 10 months I had...

Here are this week’s Faves:   1) Rhode Pocket Blush   I love these blushes! Sprinkle is my current favorite color. 2) Stars+Honey Protein Bars  My friend Susan turned me onto these because I don’t really like to eat breakfast and she INSISTS I get more protein in my diet. I like a lot of the flavors, but maybe Birthday Cake Chocolate Chip is my current favorite. 3) Tobeape 3-Pack LED Night Lights w/Motion Sensor   I actually purchased these from Amazon Mexico because the cabinets are SO dark it’s like looking for things in a black hole. They are attached to my interior cabinet walls with magnets so very easy to move and recharge (I love the 3-light charging station). It’s so nice now when I open my cabinets I can see what I’m looking for! 4) SLOOSH 2-Pack Hammock Pool Floats  These are my favorite pool floats! My friend Kim brought them for us on one of our girl trips and now I won’t use anything else. I don’t lay out on lounge chairs very well, I’d rather be in...

My FAVE Faves

It has been a minute since I have posted Faves, but I am loving these things SO much, I may have to start doing Faves again.    1. ZO Skin Health Growth Factor Serum  My friend works for ZO Skin Health and she got me started using this line. She told me all the steps I needed for gorgeous skin 🤪 and this is my FAVORITE of all of the products. I love the cute container, the way it pumps out, the smell and the way it goes on my skin. I get strangely excited for this step in my nighttime skincare routine. 2. tarte shape tape blur concealer stick brush  Facebook got me on this one. I saw a demonstration and it looked amazing. Definitely too good to be true, but I took the bait. I have been beyond struggling with concealers for years, so I tried the tarte concealer and this stick brush. It is AMAZING! I dare say that even a monkey could use this with good results. I use the tart concealer and then literally just brush this all under my eyes. It looks so smooth! Does not ...

What I have been loving lately:   1) Google Mail App  So grateful to my son Harrison for turning me onto this app! I had been complaining about my current overload of junk emails, and he told me he used Google Mail and had folders. I downloaded it, and was skeptical at first. I didn’t feel comfortable that I could find everything, but kept playing around with it, and now my life has been changed! Checking email is so simple and quick now! I did “over clean” my inbox, but I’ll be able to retrieve items if I really need them. Harrison always seems to have life changing “hacks” for me! Thanks, bud! 2) Merit Beauty Double Cleanse Face Wash  I stumbled upon this as well as a serum and moisturizer. I LOVE the face wash, like the serum, and feel meh about the moisturizer. The face wash and serum give me a glow. Goodness knows, I could use a good glow. Ha! 3)   BlinkBetter Better Lids Ointment  This stuff is wonderful! I think from Lash Serums or harsh eye make up remov...

Faves Lately

  It’s been awhile since I’ve done Faves, but these are all VERY worthy! 1) Old Navy T-shirts  I have lived in these shirts all summer and I’m not even a t-shirt girl! They are $10 each! 2) Gola Classics Women’s Stadium Sneakers   I purchased these from Anthropologie in Edinburgh, Scotland. Wore them all over Scotland and Norway. Love them! 3) Bobbi Brown Long Wear Cream Shadow Stick   I have really loved these lately. They glide on easily and stay on. 4) Revitalash Volumizing Hair Collection  This one was a surprise to me. Revitalash is for lashes, or so I thought. Someone I follow on IG recommended this collection, so I thought I’d try it. Kinda pricey (but since my ON t-shirts only cost $10…), but man, it actually changes the  texture of my hair. It does make it feel thicker. I am really loving this stuff. Tomorrow I’m celebrating my grandson’s first birthday. Love you Andyroo!! 

Current Faves

  It’s been a long time since I’ve posted Faves, so I thought I’d post some things I’m liking lately. 1) The Four Seasons  I recently watched this on my flight home from Cabo. The episodes are short, and I finished when I got home, but I LOVED this! Loved it! 2) Westman Atelier Baby Cheeks Blush Stick in Chouchette  I became a fan of this blush stick a couple of years ago, when my daughter in law told me about it. There are several colors I like, but lately my favorite is Chouchette. It was recommended to me in NYC and I love it! It is kind of $$$ but lasts forever because a little goes a long way. 3) SOJOS Retro Oversized Square Polarized Sunglasses  In contrast to my expensive blush stick, these babies cost about $15. I always wear polarized, and these are just fun! I like that they are lighter and I can see out of them.  4) Amy Bradley Is Missing  Last night my husband hosted poker at our house, so I holed up in the bedroom and watched this 3-part series...

  Friday Faves of the week: 1) Aren’t We Lucky by Sarah Forbes Stewart  This book was a bit of a slow burn, no huge twist, but the ending does leave you thinking.  2) Alf the Label  This is an Australian company and I’m kind of obsessed. When the owner started it she wanted a stylish bag to hang from the pram. I bought the bigger pouch and a small one for sunglasses and the super cool carabiner. I LOVE it! I can add more bags if I want. Love putting my purse on my wrist, and the other night at dinner I hooked it around the arm of my chair. She also sent an email to her customers saying that Mother’s Day can be difficult for some people, so reply to the email and she’d take you off the mailing list until after Mother’s Day. I thought that was pretty cool. They have a lot of other bags too, but I fell in love with these. 3) Fit Flop GEN-FF Leather Back Strap Toe Post Sandals  So cute and comfortable. I don’t feel like I’m being a slob when I wear them. 4) Oval Rin...
