Hey there Besties, we are back from our dreamlike vacation on Hilton Head Island. It was a truly delightful week in a place that brings me Joy. Now we are back to work, getting ready for hockey season and back to school. I am stopping by the site to link up Erika, Andrea, Narci to share a few things that brought me Joy this week.
1. Lavish Skin Perfecting Mineral Sunscreen
Sunscreen has really been in the news this summer. Several well known sunscreens were yanked from the market recently because they contain cancer causing ingredients. I actually used to use one of these sunscreens on the regular. In addition to cleaning up my beauty game I am really cleaning up my sunscreen game.
I use Daylight tinted or clear every day. Running Daddy and Hockey Guy used the clear on our trip last week and no one burned. Hockey Guy has a tendency to burn on his cheeks and this time no burning with Daylight.
I am super excited Ever came out this summer with the Lavish Mineral Sunscreen. I have a lot of trouble with the sun due to my health issues and often get itchy rashes from the sun. The Lavish sunscreen is SPF 30. Typically I would choose a higher sunscreen but I decided I was really going to test this out last week.
Since it is a lotion and a thicker product, it was the product I put on first and then followed up with a mineral spray in the afternoon on the beach. I can tell you that I used the Lavish sunscreen before boating and every day on our trip. No burning, no rashes, no peeling and no scary chemicals.
If you need any advice on Ever sunscreen or other clean beauty items visit my website or reach out to me via the contact feature.
2. Simply Southern Bee Kind Terry Pullover
I am a big Simply Southern fan and they just happen to have an outlet in Hilton Head. I don't think they have a lot of locations so the prices are really Good. I could not resist this super sweet pullover.
The fabric is super soft and I think it is going to be a really Good transition item for fall.
3. Baby French Terry Cardigan
Speaking of comfortable, this baby French terry cardigan from Banana Republic Factory is so soft. I put this on before bed and then again first thing in the morning. It is the Best item for the transitioning of seasons.
I mostly use it for lounge wear but depending on your style it might make a Good regular cardigan.
4. Real Housewives of Beverly Hills
Holy smokes is this season Good. With the Erika situation, I don't really know what to believe. I don't think it's Good though.
Erika wants to know where the money went. Hmmmm.
For the record, I am Team Sutton/Garcelle and Crystal is growing on me. Rinna used to me one of my favorites and I don't know what her angle is this season. Also for the record, I continue to be right about Kyle.
Have you tuned in this season? Leave me your thoughts in the comments.
5. Mainstays Kitchen Trash Can
Ok, this is a totally boring favorite but if you need a new kitchen trash can, check out the Mainstays motion sensor trash can.
It holds a ton and with the motion sensor, it is way more sanitary.
I hope you have a Good weekend. We are getting ready to start school next week so it is going to be a busy one around here. Best of luck to all the kids heading back to school and all of my teacher readers. If you have a kid headed to college for the first time this fall, big hugs to you.
