Fun Spring Finds

May 22, 2020

This post is sponsored by BabbleBoxx. Thank you for supporting our brand partners as they help support us! As always, and all opinions are 100% my own. 

I dunno about you guys but finding new fun products is one of my favorite past times. With everything going on in the world not only have I become the proud owner of seven new house plants but I’ve definitely put time into finding products that make my life more fun, more functional, or just happy. This month I’m teaming up with Babbleboxx and they sent me a box of HAPPY! And what do I do when I find cool stuff? I share it with you guys! 

Fun Spring Finds

FUN SPRING FINDS

MATCHA MASCARA FROM ERIN’S FACES

This mascara was super intriguing to me first and foremost because it’s not in a regular mascara tube that we’re all used to. It’s housed in recyclable glass, it was really cool to see something so innovative. Outside of the tube this mascara lengthens and volumizes at the same time. No flaking or smudging, which is important in a mascara. The wand itself has an hourglass shape and for someone who tends to have stick-straight lashes, the hourglass brush works best for me! 

Fun Spring Finds

Matcha Mascara has super clean ingredients so if that’s your thing, you’re good to go here! The mascara includes organic matcha which has been shown to strengthen your hair, beta carotene which acts as a lash treatment to encourage hair growth, and plant based fibers to make lashes appear longer. Since I can’t currently get eyelash extensions this is giving me all the good feels! 

FAIR TRADE TINTED LIP BALM FROM ERIN’S FACES 

I’m always looking for the “your lips but better” type of lip products. Especially in the Spring and Summer where my makeup style tends to lean on the lighter side. I just want a quick wash of color. A tinted lip balm can do that for me! These lip balms are also using mineral pigments instead of dyes while keeping your lips super hydrated! These give a slip to the lip vs the waxy feel you get from most other clean balms due to the organic fair-trade cocoa seed butter! Peppermint and vanilla make them not only smell delicious but taste delicious as well!

OPI MY CHIHUAHUA DOESN’T BITE ANYMORE 

I was so excited to get this shade. If you’re an old school OPI fan than you know that “My Chihuahua Bites” from OPI is a cult favorite. I used to wear this shade all day every day in the summer. It was my go-to color for summer pedicures. I eventually moved on to something else I suppose and just forgot. But then I saw “My Chihuahua Doesn’t Bite Anymore” and I instantly felt nostalgic. This is the longest I have gone without gel extensions on so I knew I needed to start searching for some fun shades again. 

Fun Spring Finds

This shade from OPI does the trick. It’s vibrant but not too vibrant, and the perfect shade of orange.

REEF CUSHION SOL & ESCAPE MULE TX

I have pledged to live in slides of any kind all Summer long so these cutie patooties came at the perfect time! The REEF Cushion Sol is not your mama’s flippity flop! It’s got style! A T-strap made from the softest unlined vegan leather. I dunno if you guys have worn anything from REEF before but they have the best cushion in everything I’ve tried. These are not only comfortable and stylish but they give great support. They’re available in six colors – Natural, Hibiscus, Black/Snake, Champagne, Rose Gold, and White/Snake! They’re the perfect everyday shoe while trapped in quarantine but can also go great for a date night (if we can ever have date nights again LOL)

Fun Spring Finds

The REEF Escape Mule TX is just beautiful. It will quickly become a repeat for me this Summer. It’s got a lined cushion footbed and arch support! It’s so rare to find arch support in slides, but REEF guarantees all-day comfort! The mules have a really stylish espadrille detail to them! 

ZENNI SUNGLASSES

A girl can never have too many pairs of sunglasses and these from Zenni are super cute! They have a fashion tint lens so for me I just feel more fun and chic and they match my whole vibe! I have shopped Zenni in the past and I really love how easy it is to grab everything from sunglasses to blue light blocking glasses at an affordable price. You can choose from a plethora of styles on Zenni and most start at $6.95. Bonkers. 

Almost every frame can be made with the Zenni BlokzTM blue blocker lenses as well so if you love your sunnies you can get that same frame twice! Have some fun! 

INFINITE CBD GUMMIES

Listen… I don’t think I would have made it through quarantine if it wasn’t for CBD gummies. Brain fog? Lack of energy? Trouble sleeping? CBD is amazing at helping with this! Thanks to the versatility of cannabidiol, these CBD gummies are the perfect pick-me-up to get you through the day, morning treat, or bedtime snack.

I’ve been trying out both the Asteroid Gummies and Sour Asteroid Gummies and they’re both delicious! I did end up loving the sour ones just a tad more and already placed an order for more. CBD chills me out and allows me to focus during the day and at bedtime it helps me fall asleep and stay asleep longer. CBD doesn’t make you feel high as there’s nothing psychoactive about it. Infinite CBD gummies are also vegan! 

Fun Spring Finds

That said, I’m not a doctor so consult with your physician always 🙂 

I also got my hands on the Infinite CBD Hand Sanitizer! This will definitely come in handy since I can’t find it anywhere else! They utilize lemon essential oil to give it a fresh scent while using Nano CBD to nourish your skin while it gets rid of germs! I’ve been using this daily and unlike with most other hand sanitizers my hands don’t feel like dry crackly deserts!

SWIG LIFE SKINNY CAN COOLER  & STEMLESS WINE CUP

Hi. Hello. I LOVE these so much! Cute cups are pretty much one of my favorite things on the planet. Let’s chat about the stemless wine cup first! There are a variety of prints to choose from and it will keep your drink cold UP TO 9 HOURS… WHAT? That’s amazing! Is it great for wine and cocktails? Yes. But you know what else it’s fabulous for? ICE COLD WATER. Seriously. It’s fab. It also will keep things hot for up to 3 hours, if you want to throw your tea in here to sip! 

Fun Spring Finds

The Skinny Can Cooler is actually super cool as well, it fits everything from a Red Bull to a White Claw. I dunno if I live under a rock but I had never seen a cooler for a tall and skinny can before. This will keep your drink cold for up to 12 hours. 

They’re both dishwasher safe (top rack only) and have triple insulation technology! You can get a 10% discount here!

LIFTACTIV PEPTIDE-C ANTI-AGING AMPOULE SERUM FROM VICHY 

Fun Spring Finds

If someone says peptides, I say gimme! I’m at a point where I am heavily investing in the best of the best when it comes to anti-aging skincare so I’m really excited to give these a go! The ampoule serums are formulated with only 10 ingredients including 10% Pure Vitamin C (an antioxidant known to help brighten skin), Natural Origin Hyaluronic Acid (to hydrate and plump the skin) and
Plant-based Phyto Peptides (to fight signs of collagen loss). Collagen loss is definitely aging us, so anything that combats that I am ready for! I’m excited to come back and give you guys an update on these anti-aging ampoule serums after one month of use! 

 

I hope you guys are staying safe during this time and finding some fun things to keep you occupied and happy!

“The black and white photo challenge started as “The black and white photo challenge started as a way for women to raise their voice. To stand in solidarity with the women we have lost. To show that one day, it could be their picture plastered across news outlets with a black and white filter.” - @beelzeboobz⁣
⁣
In 2019, Turkey had nearly 500 RECORDED femicides. ⁣
⁣
The Global Burden of Armed Violence 2014 database shows that between 2007 and 2012, on average, 60,000 women were killed violently around the world. ⁣
⁣
A total of 87,000 women were intentionally killed in 2017. More than half of them (58 per cent) ̶ 50,000 ̶ were killed by intimate partners or family members, meaning that 137 women across the world are killed by a member of their own family every day. More than a third (30,000) of the women intentionally killed in 2017 were killed by their current or former intimate partner ̶ someone they would normally expect to trust.⁣
⁣
“Since the pandemic, violence against women especially domestic violence has intensified” @unwomen⁣
⁣
While the majority of homicide victims are men, women are the primary victims of intimate partner homicide, including homicide–suicide events.⁣
⁣
Drug dealers get longer sentences than rapists. ⁣
⁣
Breonna Taylor’s murderers still haven’t been arrested. ⁣
⁣
Globally, 1 in 3 women experience physical or sexual violence mostly by an intimate partner⁣
⁣
#WomenSupportingWomen looks a lot like putting in work to actively combat and also recognize violence against women. It looks like voting for political figures who don’t want to take the rights of women away. It looks like donating to causes that actively fight for these women. ⁣
⁣
So let’s #challengeaccepted that. ⁣

Would you ever say the things you say to yourself Would you ever say the things you say to yourself to another woman? ⁣
⁣
I absolutely wouldn’t tell a woman that her thighs were too big. Or that I hated her stretch marks. Or her belly stuck out too far. Or that her arms were fat. ⁣
⁣
So why the frick am I ok saying it to myself? Sometimes we all need a little reminder when we look in the mirrror...⁣
⁣
Speak to yourself with grace. If you find yourself experiencing negative self talk ask yourself if you’d say it to someone else. If the answer is no.. full 🛑 ⁣

Wanna hear some random things about me?! ⁣ ⁣ 1 Wanna hear some random things about me?! ⁣
⁣
1️⃣ My hair has been over 50 different colors. Some of them all at the same time. It’s naturally blonde though⠀⁣
⠀⁣
2️⃣ I went to an all girls catholic high school and was asked not to take Spanish 3 because I talked too much 🤣⠀⁣
⠀⁣
3️⃣ I have two cats, a dog, and a husband that I’ve been with since I was 16 years old⠀⁣
⠀⁣
4️⃣ I’m a double ♊️ which means I’m talkative, fiercely loyal and endlessly curious. Paired with being an enneagram 8 and it probably also means I’m a little bit psycho 🤣⠀⁣
⠀⁣
5️⃣ I listen to murder podcasts to fall asleep.⠀⁣
⠀⁣
6️⃣ Playing with makeup is my happy place. ⠀⁣
⠀⁣
7️⃣ I love the hottest hot sauces that most people won’t even smell. ⠀⁣

🔟 Creating this community has been one of my favorite things about life. What will you find here?! Easy beauty tips and tutorials, attainable fashion, endless Amazon finds, but also the UNCOMFORTABLE stuff: pap smears, depression, anxiety, the effects my husbands addiction had on our marriage, eating disorders, struggles with fertility, body acceptance, and being comfortable in your own skin. I try to keep it as real as humanly possible. Being so vulnerable all of the time isn’t the easiest thing but if it helps just one person feel less alone, I’m good! ⠀⁣
⁣
🌟 I’m so glad you’re here! I’d love to hear a fun fact about you!! 🌟 ⁣

Loving an addict is one of if not the hardest thin Loving an addict is one of if not the hardest thing I’ve ever done in my life. ⁣
⁣
We’re about two hit two years since Jim entered rehab and I’m forever proud of the changes he made and the man he has become⁣
⁣
For the person reading this who loves an addict. It’s changed you, I know. It made you a little harder to reach. It made getting out a bed a little rough. It’s isolated you from groups of friends. Your hearts a little more closed off then it once was. Your trust is a little bit broken. You’ve felt more alone then you ever have. You’ve felt judged. You’ve felt betrayed. You’ve felt at fault.⁣
⁣
Whether you’re past it or still in the trenches. I want you to know some things. ⁣
⁣
I need you to know that it’s not your fault. I need you to know that you could not have done anything differently. I need you to know that you can’t cure it. You didn’t cause it. And you can’t control it. ⁣
⁣
Most of all I need you to know that it gets better. I need you to know that it’s ok to feel happiness again. It’s ok to put yourself first. It’s ok to take care of your. ⁣
⁣
And you’re not alone. ⁣
⁣
I promise you that there’s a light on this side of the tunnel just waiting for you to walk through. And that light doesn’t mean it’s over, it’s just there to guide you. Because every day could be a battle. ⁣
⁣
I stayed for the battle. But that’s not the only way. If you need to leave that’s okay too. Either way. You have to get to that light. ⁣
⁣
Don’t be afraid to reach out for help. Go to a meeting yourself. Grab a book (Co-Dependent No More, was helpful for me) listen to a podcast. Get yourself a village. TAKE CARE OF YOURSELF⁣
