Loving Tan 2 HR Express Self-Tanning Mousse in Ultra Dark
This is my all-time favorite self tanner. Trust me, I am ghostly white and have tried them all. It dries faster than the others which I appreciate because I cannot stand the sticky self tan feeling. The color is great, lasts a long time, and fades well. I saw Loving Tan also came out with a new 10 minute tan. I'm interested but also skeptical... I will try and report back!

Kids Paint by Sticker Book
We love these paint by sticker books. We keep in them in our restaurant bag, take them on the airplane, church, road trips, and have even brought them to long baseball games. Its great because the pages are perforated so makes for easy sharing with cousins, friends, and have even given them out to other kids at restaurants. They have multiple books to choose from and are based on age ranges. Not going to lie I haven't hated doing these with my daughter! Very relaxing!
-

Clear Zipper Pouches
I LOVE these zipper bags. They are literally great for everything! I use them in our airplane carry on for organization, a change of clothes to keep in my daughter's backpack, snacks, crafts, doll accessories/toys, wet swimsuits, puzzles/games, used them to organize travel backpacks to Disney, sunscreen, markers, and even keep our Tonie music characters in them. I could keep going but you get it! It's nice to have all the different sizes for different needs. You can even jazz them up with cute vinyl stickers!
-

Oxy Powder
This is TMI and slightly embarrassing but here we are! If you struggle with going to the bathroom these work wonders. It says to take 4 but I only take two. I do this once a week and never forget to bring them on vacation. IYKYK! That's all I have to say about that.

Botanic Tree Glycolic Acid Face Wash
I have purchased this 10 times and use it every single morning in the shower! I like that it has glycolic acid and my PM cleanser has salicylic acid. Give me alllll the acids! Price point is decent and works well!
-

Microfiber Makeup Remover Towels
These make up removal towels are fantastic! They are great quality, extremely soft, and wash well. I tried using the disposable cloths but went back to the tried and true. I have added them to pamper gift baskets, given to the girlies in my family, and love keeping in my guest bathroom! 10/10

Lumineux Teeth Whitening Strips
Because I love my coffee! No issues with sensitivity after using these. I'm on my 3rd box!

Women’s Jelly Shoes
I jumped on the jelly train and was actually extremely impressed. I found a pair at Dolce Vita that are identical to these but did not want to commit to the price. I ordered the Mocha color and love them. They are extremely comfortable. I wore them to the Royals game and played putt putt in them the next day. No issues! The red pair are in my cart as well!
-

Burt’s Bees Peppermint Chapstick
My fav chapstick ever. I keep one in every single purse, my travel toiletry bag, my office, bathroom, nightstand, and kitchen. I can't be without it!
-

Polaroid Magnetic Frames
These frames are so cute! We use them on our fridge, to decorate my daughter's locker, have given them to Grandparents for gifts, and we even used them for a class party. I took Polaroids of each student and had them decorate the frames with jewels and stickers!
-

Butterfly Growing Kit
I have done this twice with my daughter. She has equally loved it both times! We have even given it as a birthday gift. Such a fun activity that lasts a few weeks!

Coffee Stir Spoons
We use these every morning to stir our coffee! My daughter also loves them for her yogurt and ice cream. Anything to make the everyday a little cuter! HA! I have also used these for co-worker and teacher gifts! I love to give them with a coffee gift card, a fun coffee syrup and a chocolate truffle!

My favorite tanks to wear under sweaters, button ups, jackets, and even on their own. Great quality, soft material, and good price point. Have purchased multiple times!
-

Alarm Clock
My 7-year-old has gotten into telling time this year so I ordered this fun alarm clock for her room. It's cute, provides extra light at night, and on the rare days she sleeps in the clock can do the waking up for us!
-

Perfume Sampler Set
Trying new fragrances is one of my favorite things. I love to purchase these sampler sets so I don't end up buying multiple full-size bottles and you don't have to commit to just one! It's easy to keep the sample size in your purse and toiletry bag. The box also comes with a voucher to redeem a 10 oz bottle. My favorite in this box is the Kayali Fleur Majesty Rose Royale. It smells similar to Ralph Lauren Romance but better!
-

Zinnia Seeds
Over the last few years I have gotten into my green thumb Era! I absolutely love my planters and flower garden. All summer long you can find me collecting more pots and buying more flowers. It's a weakness but a pretty one! This was the first year we have planted flowers from seeds. When I say we it was really my daughter who did it. This is the seed packet we got. Zinnias are super easy because it's more of a scattering of the seeds rather than actually planting. We just scraped up the dirt, sprinkled the seeds, and lightly covered them back up! They are growing great and should start sprouting buds soon. We really tried this time as more of an experiment with very low expectations. But it worked! It's been fun to reap what you sow!

Digital Wall Calendar
My husband got us this wall calendar to keep our busy schedules straight. The calendar feature is great but we have really loved the task list for our daughter. She has loved checking off her chores and tasks. It keeps her on track for a smooth running morning! It was on sale for $150 but looks like the price has increased. 🙁 Keep an eye out for another sale!

Dabble & Dollop Clean Bath Bombs
These aren't excited as some of the other bath bombs but they get the job done and still enjoy them. I love that they are made with clean ingredients, without dyes, and perfect for sensitive skin!

Water Bottle Silicone Band
I purchased these 7 years ago for my daughter's bottles when she first went to daycare. We now use the same ones on her stainless steel water bottles. They still look brand new. I throw them in the dishwasher every day and they have held up perfectly!

Mrs. Meyer’s Hand Soap
I love all Mrs. Meyer's Soap scents but right now I am fixated on the lavender. I'm typically not a huge lavender girl but this one is GOOD!
