Monthly Faves: July 2019
Softsoap Decor Series Handsoaps
I recently came across this new Softsoap Décor Series line and I AM OBSESSED. Every scent smells so good. I’ve been using the purple Peony & Plum one lately but have also stocked up on the green Wild Basil & Lime and blue Jasmine & Mint. If you are a lover of the bath and body works hand soaps I’m sure you will enjoy these just as much.
Dr Bronners: Almond Soap
This month I converted another friend into a Dr Bronners lover and I am so proud. I use this stuff religiously. There are few products that can be used to cleanse multiple things and this is one of them. I use this to clean everything. My skin, my woohoo, my floors, makeup brushes. Dr. Bronner’s is a soap gifted from God himself. Don’t believe me? Just try it. But be sure to dilute it if you have sensitive again!
trader joes ice cream sandwiches
Now if you know me, you know i have a problem with sweets. I try not to indulge too much into sweets because once I start, it is EXTREMELY hard for me to stop but this right here is worth at least trying. The chocolate chips stuck all around the ice cream, heaven on my tongue. Be careful with this one friends. It’s way too good.
lion king: the gift
Shame on me for not seeing The Lion King yet, but the one thing I did do was definitely listen to Beyonce’s soundtrack. BROWNNN SKINN GIRLLLLL anyone? Ugh, so good.
kombucha
As a lover of kombucha, I am excited to say I found a new flavor that just may be my absolute favorite. At the beginning of the month I tried out Synergy’s Lemonade flavor and did not think anything could top it, but I was wrong. Trader Joes has an exclusive Strawberry Lemonade flavor and it is way way too good. A must try, my mom said it’s her new fave as well.
sunscreen
I’m really trying to do better with sunscreen y’all! I really am! ESPECIALLY in this California heat. If you know me, you knoaw Neutrogena is my go to but I’m also excited to
L’OREAL REVITALIFT DAY MOISTURIZER
if you’re looking for a nice creamy moisturizer this is for you. Truth be told this is a little heavy so I’ve been mixing it with my Garnier gel moisturizer and it’s been a nice refreshing cream for my face every morning. Like my skin is legit happy for moisturizer and this never happens. I also found that by having a bomb moisturizing routine going on, my smile lines have not been as evident. Talk about a win-win situation.
fromyouflowers
at my previous job, i learned the importance of giving, especially when people are going through hard situations. I found myself compelled to send flowers this month and I was pretttty impressed with their services and the pricing! If you’re new to sending flowers to a special someone I highly recommend fromyouflowers.com. It’s super easy to use, pay, and get delivered!
maybelline foundation
at first I wasn’t tooo hyped about this foundation but the more I use it, the more I like. first off, I love the SPF 50 in it, even though it only last for 2 hours, I feel so protected as I step out into the sun with this on my face. When paired with my airpsun powder and applied with a beauty sponge this makes the perfect summer foundation for me. [ my color is the color truffle ].
Favorite memory: Hot Girl Summer pool party, you can read all about it here.
