Wednesday Faves Week #41

Good morning!  Hope everyone is staying dry and safe.  I heard someone say that October is taking the place of April in terms of rain.  It is fine by me!  I was born in April and when growing up, I hated that it rained so much in my birthday month.  Time for my Faves:


1) Rodan & Fields Radiant Beauty.  Ok, so has your Facebook been flooded with R & F Consultants, many just back from convention, RAVING about the new products?  Mine sure has. I will admit that I thought: Oh goodness, they are definitely on a convention high and going a little overboard.  But, I tried this one and I honestly was amazed!  I'm not totally sure what it does, but I don't want to be without it.  Ever. I have been using it as my foundation even though it's a "dermacosmetic" so it's helping my face while I wear it.  A sidenote: After I apply it with that little brush, the brush still looks clean (not all make up gunky).  It's like voodoo or something, ha, ha!  But seriously, this stuff is awesome!  My apologies to the consultants for doubting you!

2) Jack-O-Lanterns.  I have actually had these guys for several years but could never really find a "wow" place for them.  This year they are sitting on my kitchen island and I see them every time I walk into the kitchen.  They make me so happy!  I LOVE them there!  They are super large, like 14" and 10" tall.  My mom always has her kitchen island decorated so nicely, she was my inspiration for placing them here.  Thanks Ging!

3) Baylor University Cap.  I love this ball cap with its gold bling on it.  In hindsight, it should be no surprise I attended Baylor...gold is one of my signature colors, ha, ha!  Anyway, I've not really repped my school over the past few years, mainly choosing to support the schools of my children.  This cap has broadened my horizons!  

4) Tresemme Repair & Protect 7.  I found this product by accident.  I was looking for a heat protectant and the reviews for this were good.  It has done amazing things for my hair!  I love it!  Now, I do think hair products are so different on everyone's hair.  My friend Cynthia sent me a product that she had been using along with a photo.  She told me if I tried it it would definitely be a Fave. Her hair looked Va-Va-Voom great after using the product!  I purchased and tried it and I kind of looked like Nick Nolte's mugshot from a few years back (remember that?) 
 

I thought maybe it was just a learning curve, so I tried again.  Same thing.  Now, Cynthia on the other hand, looked wonderful.  So, hair products definitely don't work on everyone, but this Tresemme product worked wonders on me!  And it was very cheap for all of my frugal friends.

Bonus Fave:


Today I'm throwing in a "Bonus Fave": All of my kids are slaying it right now!  Each one, in their own way, is doing what they need to do to "adult".  Good for you guys, keep up the good work!  Love you!

Happy, Happy Wednesday everyone!

Friday Faves

  While I did get some random submissions for Faves this week (Larry’s will never happen), I remained on my own. 1) SHOWKOO Luggage Set  I got this luggage set for my upcoming trip (we leave Sunday) because I need to take the carry on and the duffle with me on the plane. I’m trying this duffle in lieu of my usual backpack. I’m excited about it, and hope it’s still a favorite after the trip! 2) Survivor Season 48  While it wasn’t our favorite season premiere, we LOVE Survivor in this house and we love watching it together! 3) Govee Lights  We recently added a bar in our house and my contractor made this light box and used Govee lights. We already have Govee lights around our TV so I was familiar with them and I love them! They can change colors, be put on a timer, etc., all from my phone. There’s a little glitch with this set, so they are going to be replaced, but they still make me squeal every time I walk into the room. 4) Shut the Box Game  My family, as usual...

  Finally home and settled from our Australia/New Zealand adventure. My Faves this week were awesome for me while traveling! 1) Power Plug Adapter  We have used many different plug adapters while traveling, but these were the best we have used! With one adapter we were able to charge everything and I could even curl my hair, ha, ha! Highly recommend! These were compatible in Australia/New Zealand, so I’m hopeful to find some for our next travel adventure, 2) Rothy’s Sneakers  I may have posted these before, but I love love love them when traveling. I own two pair and took them both with me.  3) One Step Behind by Lauren North  I listened to this book (and two others) while on this trip. I had never listened to a book by this author, and I really enjoyed the book. Unique plot for sure. 4) Coach Sling Bag  This might be my favorite of all Faves! I purchased this specifically for my trip to wear on tours/excursions, and I loved it! It has two zippered compartm...

Friday Faves Cabo Edition

Today I’m in Cabo, traveling with my little Andy for the first time. Doing my Faves while he naps.   1) The Business Trip by Jessie Garcia  I’m not even sure how I found this book, and it seems to be the first one she’s written, but it was SO good! I listened to it and there was a full cast of narrators so it was like a performance. Loved the ending! Thought I had it figured out but I was wrong. 2) happyhappyhouseplant on IG  This is my current favorite account on IG. Her name is Mandi Gubler and she is awesome! I literally do not have one live plant in my house, but I’m obsessed with her and almost feel like I could try one! What I like best about her is that her IG stories aren’t long, and she’s very informative and encouraging. Some people I follow go on and on and tell you every minute of their day. I don’t take the time to listen to those people anymore. Highly recommend @happyhappyhouseplant on IG! 3) Apple Watchband from Quince  I love this silver watchband. I...
