Friday Favorites April 11, 2025: Fun, Spring Fashion and Beauty

 

It's been a while since I have posted a Friday Favorites and my writing has not been as frequent as in the past. Mostly, I am pretty exhausted recently. The traffic has really picked up around here and I think it is taking its toll on me. In general, it's a stressful time to live and work in the nation's capital. Not a political statement, just the truth. I am excited to be back and taking a moment to link up with Erika and Andrea and share the simple pleasures that brought me Joy this week. Today is all about fun, spring fashion and beauty. Let's end this week with a little fun for Friday Favorites.

1. Nature's Bounty Hair, Skin and Nail Gummies

I was not born with a Good head of hair. My hair is naturally fine, thin and not cooperative post menopause. I know there are a lot of pricey hair supplements on the market that people really like, but I can't swallow the price. I bought the Nature's Bounty Hair, Skin and Nails gummies at the beginning of the year. Last month when I went to have my eye brows done, my gal who has been doing my eye brows for 18 years (only one other person has touched my brows once in that time) asked me if I was taking a hair growth supplement.

My hair does actually look fuller in the front which is a problem area for me and my brows are a little less sparse in some places. What I lack in hair volume I was bless in brows. So if you want to try a hair supplement at a more friendly price, try these first.

2. TruSkin Hyaluronic Acid Serum

This serum from TruSkin  is another Good product and a friendly price point. I have been using since the beginning of the year and my skin texture is great and the hydration is fantastic. There are a lot of pricey serums out there, try this one before you reach for one of those.

3. Crow & Ivy Dress

I feel like Crown & Ivy from Belk is a secret that needs to get out. I have a few pieces from Crown & Ivy and just ordered this dress. I am hoping it works out and I care wear it for Easter. I love it and  it's not something that I need right now, but it is too cute. It also comes in black.

4. Real Housewives of Atlanta

I have not watched Real Housewives of Atlanta in years. It got a little dark for me in season 9 and I didn't watch until this year. Running Daddy and I watched Real Housewives of Potomac and we are now getting caught up on this season of Atlanta. I am fascinated by Shamea and her elevators! These ladies are Good stress relievers.

That's it for this week. I hope this post brought you a little levity.
