My teeth are so friggin sensitive and I can’t tolerate most whitening strips or professional grade gels. My friend/ortho gave me gel and I wore the trays for maybe 10 minutes and it felt like ICEEEEEE. My tolerance is low, man. So I got these strips to try and I have been really conservative to start just cuz I think I need to start slow and work my way up (kinda like a retinol ya know). But so far I haven’t had any reaction and they work. I gave in to the hype I saw all over Insta and glad I did.
Skin Better Science SPF Compact
My friend gifted this to me for my birthday because she follows my esthetician and saw her posting all about this SPF powder/compact situation. I still always layer this SPF first after my AM skincare routine and I’ve been applying the tinted compact after my mineral SPF sinks in. I love the slight coverage it gives as I don’t tend to wear any makeup during the week or when I’m not going anywhere.. aka never.. and then I throw some lip glass and mascara on and I’m good to go. It’s a great SPF to carry on the go as well. I have the compact and this spray with me at all times for reapplication.
You know I’m loyal to Nike so pulling the trigger on these was rather painful lol. But they were in my face everywhere I went so I did it. And they’re so comfortable. I am usually a 9 and I got the M 7.5/W 8.5 and they fit perfectly with socks. Look cute with jeans, shorts, skirts and dresses and I find a lot of inspo how to wear them on Pinterest.
Trendy trucker hats are everywhere right now and I’m here for it. Super easy to throw on in Summer with shorts and a tee to elevate and bring a little flare to any outfit.

This is a cult classic and it’s the real deal. Seriously smells great and works so well. If you’ve wanted to try it now it the time while it’s part of the Nordstrom sale.
Vuori is my #1 activewear brand right now. I love all of their stuff, but I’m most obsessed with their tennis skirts right now. These are my favorites:
These shirts are so so comfortable and look so cute thrown over jean shorts and a tank or an activewear dress. It comes in a bunch of fun colors, but I went with the grey. Oh and it’s 25% off right now!
Lux Unfiltered Blurring Body Glow
I’ve been using this all summer long. It really does smooth out your skin texture and make it look glowy. I mostly just use on my legs and be sure to wash your hands after you apply it! A little goes a long way, so it does last a while too!
