Friday Favorites: Best Eye Cream, Better Mascara, Groundbreaking Hallmark Movie, Cute Summer Shoes and Easy Barbeque for Busy Nights

 

Hey Besties! Whew, what a week. I am so glad to be here in this space today. It truly brings me Joy. I have quick list of Friday Favorites for the weekly link-up with Erika and Andrea. Are you ready? Let's go.

1. Clarins Total Lift Eye Cream

One of the very fun things about being a blogger is that I am often sent products to try. This spring I was sent the Clarins Total Eye Lift to try and I am about to buy it. It has really helped my puffiness and dark circles and is totally fine with my sensitive eyes.

Hello Monday-Wedding Anniversary Weekend

Happy Monday Besties! Stopping in for Hello Monday with Holly and Sarah. The last few weekends have been so Good as they have felt like real weekends. We are all working really hard and it has been great to get back to having a little fun, plus rest and relaxation on the weekend.

Monthly Musings May 2022-

 

e 

Ok, Besties, before I start I just want to take a moment and say that just because I am posting here about summer fashion, I am not tone deaf to what happened this week in Texas. I never want to come across as insensitive because I am posting about summer fashion, but also what happened is not about me. I truly believe that God put me on this earth to spread a little Joy and if I can give anyone a moment to step away from the heaviness of this heartbreaking week, then that is what I want to do.

Thank you for joining Holly and me for Monthly Musings. This month we are joining a group of talented writers to talk summer fashion. Let's do this.

1. Favorite summer footwear?

I have really two brands I wear regularly in the summer, especially for casual times. I love Jack Rogers and Oka B.

Hey there Besties! Kicking off the week by linking up with Holly and Sarah for Hello Monday. Today, I am sharing the topics for Monthly Musings coming up this Thursday. Holly and I will be sharing a Summer Fashion Preview. 

Since we had basically no spring and it has gone right to summer around here, I am looking forward to joining Holly and our other group of lovely ladies who join us every month. Grab the graphic, add in our links and then link up with us to share our summer fashion favorites.

I hope to be back on Wednesday for What's Up Wednesday and I will be back on Thursday for Monthly Musings, so see you then. 

Friday Favorites: Laura Mercier Blush, Trader Joe's Body Butter, Good Cuticle Remover, Spring Plants and Galaxy 4 Watch

 

Ahhhhh Happy Friday Besties! I am back from a little hiatus. The past few weeks have been a little busy and I have had some major dental work done these past few weeks. Nothing too serious, but things that will be Better in the long run for my health and cosmetically. 

We are also sprinting towards the end of school and also had a mouse or two in our house. Today I am linking up with Erika and Andrea for Friday Favorites. I have all the fun spring things like a new blush from Laura Mercier, a yummy body butter from Trader Joe's, a really Good cuticle remover, my spring flowers and my new Galaxy 4 watch. Join me today as I jump back into Friday Favorites and coast towards the weekend.

1. Laura Mercier Tinted Moisturizer Blush

One very fun aspect of writing a column like Good Better Best is that I often receive products to try and review. I was recently sent the brand spanking new Tinted Moisturizer Blush by Laura Mercier. This is a delightful product.
