Friday Favorites

May 15, 2015

Hi everyone!  Welcome to this week’s edition of Friday Favorites.  I’ve been digging through my makeup collection and rediscovering products that I used in the past.  Some I used a lot and others were barely touched.  This week’s favorites include some of the treasures that I want to talk about in my eyeshadow collection.  Some are palettes and others are singles.  Let me know if you’re loving any of these.

My Favorite Long Lost Eyeshadows

 

1. The Coastal Scents Beijing Palette is stunning!  It looks great on so many eye colors and works well with all skin tones.  It’s so versatile.  I can create so many different looks with this one palette.  Best of all, it only costs $10.95 for 12 different eyeshadow colors.

2. This Bobbi Brown Rose Gold shadow is probably one of my all time favorite single shadows.  My other favorite single is the 3. Bare Minerals Bare Skin is my favorite loose mineral shadow of all time.  It’s especially perfect for summer.   If you’ve followed along on my YouTube channel then you may recall both of these from years ago.  Funny how some things never change as far as what our “go to” looks are.  I get compliments every time I wear either one of these shadows.

4. If you love taupe colored eye shadow then you’ll love Corinthian from Le Metier de Beaute.  This shadow is a luxury item that was gifted to me by a friend several years ago.  It’s a beautiful taupe with a slight purple undertone.

5.  MAC Soft Brown, need I say more?!  I use this as a transition color almost every single day no matter what color eyeshadow I’m wearing.

6. The original Lorac Unzipped Palette has been a favorite of mine for a few years now too.  It’s such a good travel palette because it has options for so many different looks.  I actually did not purchase the new Lorac Unzipped Gold.  I just don’t love gold shades on my eyes.

Let me know what shadows you love and are old and/or new favorites of yours.

      I hear that the Crest Whitening strips are really good. I have veneers so I obviously don’t need to whiten. I hope that helps! Stacie xo

    Pretty excited about the Lorac “Unzipped” palette. I love nude eye shadows and am always on the prowl for blendable shades! (Not a huge fan of golds here, either.)

I ordered some of our family faves on Walmart.com using Walmart’s Expess Delivery service straight to our doorstep in just a few hours. It’s incredible how times have changed from our younger days!

My husband and I both love the mild taste of Listerine® Total Care Alcohol Free Mouthwash. It makes us feel like we’re killing all of those extra germs that brushing misses.

Hubby suffers from seasonal allergies and winter is the worst for him. So he relies on ZYRTEC® Allergy Relief Tablets 30ct pack to help him deal with all of his symptoms. He feels relief in an hour and it lasts for a full 24 hours.

We both use Motrin® for any aches, pains or fevers that seem to always sneak up unexpectedly. Fingers crossed that we both stay healthy.

And the BAND-AID® Brand Flexible Fabric Tie-Dye Bandages are for my grandkids because it never seems to fail that someone gets hurt when they visit our house. And a pretty Band-Aid always makes things feel better in a jiffy. These are great because they’re flexible and stretch while providing protection.

Make your list of products to start your year with healthier habits too and use my link to order now.

Note: Only use products as directed.
The classic style shirtdress never disappoints. Do The classic style shirtdress never disappoints. Don’t you agree? Now available in a beautiful new print in the amazing Jude Cloth, which is wrinkle resistant, perfect for travel and looks great from morning to night.

A walk a day keeps the doctor away! I’ve mentioned A walk a day keeps the doctor away! I’ve mentioned before that I try to walk every single day for both the physical and mental benefits I get from it.

And it definitely doesn’t hurt to look cute while doing any form of exercise. I bought a few of the air essentials sweatshirts because they’re so soft and comfortable.

Currently on sale in a bunch of colors so I’m planning to add a few more to my cart. Comment for the LINK.

This post is for the ladies 5’4” and under because This post is for the ladies 5’4” and under because we deserve to have clothes that fit our proportions perfectly without a visit to the tailor.

The beautiful wool cardigan and straight leg jeans are wardrobe staples for me. They’re from Petite Studio NYC, a brand founded by a petite woman who struggled to find clothes that fit right.

You can visit my blog for more info on the brand, these 2 pieces and their Archive Sale. 

Bonus: this is a cute look for Valentine’s Day too!❤️

I must admit that I’m a little bit worn out from this first full week of work for the new year. I’m tired but at the same time I know how blessed and lucky I am that I get to do what I love for my work so I’m not going to complain.💗

Even when I’m busy, I don’t miss my daily walks because I need them for exercise and a clear mind. I thought I’d drop these pics of some of my favorite athletic wear because they’re on sale for up to 40% off right now.🎉
