Stacy – Well Rested Eye Concealer/Highlighter by Bare Minerals

You apply it around eyes to cover up dark circles. It has a bit of shimmer and makes you look bright-eyes and ready to go!

 

 

 

 

 

 

Monique – Cabezza Cognac Le Sandal by Steve Madden

Have casual by chic sandals to finish off any summer look. The little wedge gives your legs a longer slender look.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

John – Air Conditioning

It has been crazy hot and humid up here in NYC, so my favorite thing right now is air conditioning. Trying to move into a new apartment with no AC in a concrete jungle while its 95 and humid…not so fun.

Stacy - dōTERRA Lavender Essential Oil

This stuff smells like heaven! As you probably know, lavender helps you to relax and unwind. I sprinkle a few drops on my pillow at night and sleep like a baby! It’s also great to add to a bubble bath! Price: $28.00 here.

 

 

 

 

Monique – Ruffled Effect

This little light ruffle dress is the kind of thing you could throw on with sandals on a Sunday without much thought, but you’ll still look totally cute in it. Delia*s Ruffle Dress, Price: $44.50 here.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

John – Aviator Sun Sunglasses

For me, aviators are the sexiest sunglasses out there. They just exude rugged, casual elegance. The bigger the lens the better!

John – Born This Way (Bonus Track Version)

Stacy – Genius Scan (iPhone App)

I have just found out about the coolest app ever!  It’s called Genius Scan.  Have you ever been under a time crunch, had to get papers either faxed or scanned to someone and your fax machine or scanner wouldn’t work? Or, worse yet, you are stuck in traffic, can’t get to your office and you have documents that you have to get to someone in a timely manner?  Well, Genius Scan is the answer to all your problems!  Download the app, take a picture of the documents, then Genius Scan walks you through cropping and enhancing the photo.  Then, presto, chango, you can e-mail it wherever you need it to go!!!  It is amazing! Price: Free in the App Store here.

Monique – Mitered Stripe Blouse (White House/Black Market)

With the right direction of Stripes for your body type, anybody can be in this Spring’s trend! Price: $88.00 here.

 

 

 

 

 

John – Smart Water

Smart Water is the best bottled water I have ever had. I used to to be a hard core Fiji fanatic and swore off anything else. This water is the only thing that out-does Fiji for me. It is super pure and has electrolytes in it to give you extra hydration. It is a great thing to drink before, during, and after your workouts. It just helps you recover faster. Give it a try! Price varies from store to store but it is normally around $2.00 – $2.50 for a liter.

Stacy

The platform wedge is the hottest shoe out there for summer, and check out these gorgeous wedges from Banana Republic!  You can’t go wrong with any of these.  The metallic colors are perfect neutrals that you can wear with anything!  The great thing about platform wedges is that they are a lot more comfortable that normal heels.  Because they elevate the whole foot, it puts less pressure on the ball of your foot.  Try them–you’ll be glad you did! Happy Friday!

 

Monique

Clinique Chubby Stick Moisturizing Lip Colour Balm -  Moisturizing lip balm with the perfect amount of color! The colors are fresh and fun just in time for summer! Price: $15 at Clinique counters.

 

John

It’s A 10 Shampoo and Conditioner – This shampoo and conditioner is by far the best I have ever used in my life. After I use them my hair feels like it was reborn. They are kind of expensive ($15.95 for shampoo and $16.32 for conditioner on Amazon) but they are completely worth it.

Favorite Things Friday – 4/29

April 29, 2011 By Leave a Comment

We are going to be starting a weekly blog that will come out every Friday. It will highlight things that me and my team enjoy, love, and can’t live without. So let’s get started with our first ever Favorite Things Friday!

Stacy

Arbonne’s “Awaken” Sea Salt Scrub–This scrub has a fresh, citrusy smell that I absolutely love!  The best part about it is that the salts are infused with essential oils, so it exfoliates AND moisturizes at the same time.  If you use self-tanners, it is brilliant at getting your lotion to go on smoothly and evenly.  Also, it gets rid of all those dead skin cells and help you have that healthy”glow”.  It is the perfect gift for Mother’s Day! Price: $28.00  How do you get some???  Call or e-mail my favorite Arbonne representative, Julie Peters: juliepeters410@sbcglobal.net, 281-795-2806.

Monique

Maybelline Great Lash Mascara

John

Burt’s Bees Beeswax Lip Balm – This stuff is a gift from God. My lips chap VERY easily and it really saves my lips on a daily basis. Ask anyone who knows me and they’ll tell you I am never more than one foot away from my Burt’s Bees. Price: $3.00 here.
