My lips are naturally pretty dry and they feel like they’re always flaking and this stuff has come to the rescue. I own a few of them.. I keep one in my car, one in my purse, and one by my nightstand so I can continually keep my lips hydrated. This stuff is the best.. unmatched. Regular lip balm will not do! Especially with the warm summer months and dry weather, my lips will be needing all the hydration they can get. Love this hyaluronic formula more than anything I’ve tried in the past. The ladies at Sapien Skin would agree.
I recently purchased this moisturizer at my dermatologists office after visiting her for a laser I was doing on my shingles scars (V Beam laser for redness for those curious). She took a look at my skin and recognized that I run on the dry side.. I wish I could retain some oil honestly. So she recommended this daily moisturizer that I am using twice daily along with my dermal repair cream by Sente (I combine the two with my tretinoin to really glaze the skin). I could bathe in the Epionce cream.. my skin has never been as hydrated as it has been with this stuff and that’s the God’s to honest truth. New find, new fave.
Target’s activewear lines have come light years. They’re identical to Lululemon. If you told me to identify the difference in fabrics, I wouldn’t able to. These matching sets are as close as you can get to Lulu Aligns, which means they are beyond comfortable, absorbent, and CUTE minus the price tag. We both own it in the blue, pink, and light brown colors. Throw a jean jacket over the top after your workout and you can walk out the door.
We recently got our hot tub up and running and Alix recommended this towel warmer as she also has it. My husband was a little skeptical at first.. like oh cool, a towel warmer (insert eye roll).. until he used it lol. Figures. He got out of the hot tub and put a warm towel over his shoulders and was instantly converted. Now I’m not sure he’ll ever be able to use a non-warmed towel again so I’ve created a monster. But I admit, it is rather nice to hop out of water to a warm towel waiting.

The Shark FlexStyle
I bought myself this for my birthday. I’ve never used the Dyson, but this is apparently just like it just half the cost. It dries my hair super fast and I’m getting the hand of the curls. I still need to practice it more, but if I can figure it out- truly anyone can! I love that a blowout lasts a few days too, even after a workout it just needs a little refresh.
Rachel Good Eats Cookbook
I got this cookbook for my birthday and have been using it a ton! I’ve followed Rachel on Instagram for a while because she’s also a Registered Dietitian and lives in Seattle. I’ve always loved her recipes because the ingredients are simple and the recipe instructions are straight forward. My husband has like everything I’ve made from it so far.
Nike Spark Sneakers
Heather and I both have these shoes and LOVE them. We don’t work out in them, but they are so comfortable. I prefer to save them for errands and travel. I typically stick to my Pegasus for running or walking, but you could totally wear these for walks.
Cargo Pants
I wore these ALL THE TIME in college. I loved them with the lace camis (layered of course) and rocket dogs. I’ll leave the lace and platform sandals in 2004, but I had to buy these cargos. They are so comfortable and easy to throw on with a crop shirt and flip flops over the summer.
xx, Alix & Heather
