January Favorites
I was so happy when I read the responses to my blog survey that you all love my monthly favorites! I always look forward to putting these posts together and love that you enjoy them too. Here’s what I was loving during January…
ORIBE MOISTURE & CONTROL MASQUE
I got this moisture mask after hearing about it from Alisha and am now a big fan of it! I condition my hair twice in the shower and use this mask a few times a week. I absolutely love the scent of it (if you don’t like stronger scents, this isn’t for you) and how silky & moisturized it leaves my hair.
JENNI KAYNE SHEARLING SLIPPERS
These slippers had been on my wishlist for a loooong time and am so happy to finally have them! They’re just as plush and cozy as I imagined they would be. I’m eyeing the smoke color next! Use code ALEX15 for 15% off your Jenni Kayne purchase (includes home items!)
APPOINTED CO. YEARLY TASK PLANNER
I really needed some new organization methods in my life and wanted to find a planner/notebook that would help me keep track of my to-do’s, priorities and weekly goals. This task planner from Appointed has been amazing for keeping me on top of everything! I love that it is a combination of a planner and notebook and has plenty of space to keep track of everything. I’ve also been using this notepad for more of a daily to do list.
MERIT BEAUTY
I always love finding new natural beauty brands to try and I am obsessed with just-launched Merit Beauty! I was fortunate to be gifted their Clean Lash Mascara and Brow 1980 and immediately fell in love with the brand. Merit is a collection of well-edited beauty essentials, all made responsibly with formulas that are safe for your body, skin and the planet. I love a ‘less is more’ approach to beauty so their products fit perfectly into my routine.
I quickly purchased the Minimalist Complexion Stick and Brush No. 1 and am so impressed with it. I never really wear face makeup, mostly because I don’t know how to apply it and hate the look of caked on makeup. The Minimalist blends in so easily and naturally—you can either tap it on with your finger for more coverage or use the brush to buff it into your skin for a super natural light coverage look. Besides the Minimalist, the Brow 1980 is my second favorite product. I’m eying their blush next!
BIRKENSTOCK SHEARLING ARIZONA SANDAL
These Birkenstock’s had been on my wishlist for a long time and I finally bought them earlier this month. We go in and out of our house to the backyard so often and I wanted something easy to slip on and also cozy for the chillier weather we’ve been having.
