Friday Favorites (March 1, 2019)

HOW is it March already? That means my Maggie-girl turns TWO soon. (Her birthday is on the 31st.) I know all parents say that time flies by as littles grow, but they say it all the time because it’s so glaringly true. I can’t believe we’re about to hit this milestone with her.

Goodness.

But let’s talk favorites, shall we? I have handful of things I want to share with you this week!:

We are big elderberry syrup fans at our house, and just discovered the brand Sweet’s Syrup, which we love! Maggie’s favorite part of the morning is when we all take our “berry,” and she insists that Kevin and I both get a dose as well. (If you’re not familiar with elderberry syrup, it helps boost immunity and prevent illness, which is especially helpful right now during flu season! Oh, it just so happens to taste amazing, too.)

I recently got a couple of new pieces from lululemon that I’m really excited about. I have a couple of solid colored Power Y tanks from there, but I got a black and white striped one this week that’s to die for! I also snagged a Love Tee IV black v-neck shirt that I know I’m going to wear allllll the time. (I don’t love working out in sleeves, so this will be more of an everyday shirt for me. Finding v-necks can be so hard, and so when I tried this one on and it fit so well, I knew I needed to add it to my wardrobe.)

Okay, one last thing for this week! It was super fun to see Women’s Health Magazine list Beautycounter’s Tint Skin Foundation as the most hydrating natural foundation offering. The article also makes the case for safe foundation which, of course, I’m all about. An excerpt I loved in particular: “Aside from the health benefits, there are some serious cosmetic ones too. ‘The best part is that clean makeup is like an extension of your clean skincare—it’s often based in oils and butters that nourish and protect your skin,’ says Foley. Think about it: Foundation sits on your skin all day. Why not pick a natural one that makes your skin look amazing right now, and healthier in the long-term?” If you’re interested in taking a peek at Tint Skin, check it out on my website. (Oh, and don’t forget that you can always take my skincare survey if you’d like personalized recommendations delivered to your inbox. It’s the perfect place to start if you’re new to Beautycounter!)
