Is it just me, or does it seem like time is flying by? I’m loving the beginning of fall, but one part of me wants to wear boots, and the other part can’t give up my sandals and tank tops yet!
In the meantime, let’s check out some new things and find some new loves!
Book Reader
Kindle PaperWhite. I LOVE this book reader! I’ve been thinking about getting this for a long time. So when Amazon had their prime day sale, I purchased it. I’m now loving it for travel!
I love real books and always will, but I have to say, I love this little thing to read on for traveling. You really feel like your reading a book. It’s crazy! The best surprise is I can read in a car with it! I can’t do that with a paper book for some reason, because I get motion sick. With the Kindle Paperwhite, I can read on long car rides and be fine! No queasy stomach! It’s small and cute and fits easily in a purse. I can highly recommend it if you’re looking to lighten up your luggage from books with traveling! They usually have it on Black Friday also at a great price!
Books
What The Wind Knows by Amy Harmon. Wow, this was a great book! This was a new author for me, and the first book I have read on my Kindle PaperWhite. I loved the authors writing style and this storyline was really different and oh so good! Its a journey through time. With the passing of her grandfather, the leading character Ann travels to Ireland to honor his wishes by spreading his ashes on a lake. Through a turn of events, she wakes up and finds herself in Ireland in 1921 with Ireland on the brink of war. This is a mesmerizing read, with the character caught in history and her heart.
The Wedding Dress by Rachael Hauck. The 1st book in a series if 3. I loved this book! It was a great summer read! A wedding dress that has been passed through time starting from 1912 until the present. Four brides and one dress, and an intriguing story for each of them. I literally could not stop reading this!
The Wedding Chapel by Rachel Hauck. A wedding chapel was built by a young man as a surprise for the love of his life for them to get married in. Throw in jealousy from a sister and some twists and turns and you get a wedding chapel that was never used for over 50 years. True love though has a way of coming full circle sometimes despite the odds. This story has it all. Love, mystery, redemption, and lots of heart. One more wedding book to go! Ha!
Essential Oils
Tension Relief Synergy by Plant Therapy. You know I love my essential oils! This is a great little roll on that does what it says. It relieves tension, and fast! It also helps with headaches that can be caused by tension. I keep this by my computer and find myself reaching for it on days that stress is lurking. I roll it on the back of my neck and up into the base of my hairline. Feels cool and refreshing also! After about 15 minutes all tension is gone! This has been a great find, and I will always keep it on hand!
Skincare I’m Loving
Andalou Coconut Milk Firming Serum. This serum smells and feels amazing. I use this after toner and I’m loving it! One little pump is all you need for deep hydration and extra firming. Clean ingredients make it a great find!
Acure Brightening Facial Scrub. I am loving this scrub! It’s for all skin types, and 100% vegan. It’s been voted best facial scrub product multiple times in leading beauty magazines. I can see why! Literally, after one use, your skin feels like velvet and is majorly glowing. I keep it in the shower so it’s fast and easy to get my scrub in. Use it twice a week and fall in love with this scrub!
Body
Love Beauty and Planet Body Lotion in Coconut Water & Mimosa Flower. A body lotion that has clean ingredients and smells soooo good! With summer gone, this lotion fragrance will help to keep you in the summer mood a little longer. At least in your mind every time you smell it!
Native Deodorant in Cucumber & Mint. This is a great natural deodorant that actually works! I have tried so many natural deodorants and have not really loved any of them. This one is a keeper! There are other fragrances by this brand, but this particular one seems to work the best. Science says what you put under your arms affects your brain as far as neurodegenerative issues go. Go for only clean ingredients with your deodorant! This one delivers and keeps you smelling fresh and clean all day!
I hope you check out something from the list and find something new to love!! More exciting things coming, so check back soon!
Until next time,
