At Home Facial
Since we’re limited to the confines of our home, we need to bring the luxury spa to us! I have been loving my Amazon facial steamer and try to use it 2x a week to open those PORES! I typically wash my face and when I’m applying my serums and lotions, I have the steamer running and it goes for about 10 minutes and turns off. Voila.. at home facial complete! Also, once a week I always do my Drunk Elephant Babyfacial.. literally at home facial in a bottle (warning: it might burn a few times because of the acid but that’s why it’s so good.. IT’S WORKING!)
Also, let’s talk nails. If you have a shellac mani growing out and you don’t want to peel them off and damage your nails, you need this kit ASAP. Then get yourself a new Essie polish while you’re at it.. something light enough that it doesn’t show the imperfections cuz let’s be honest, we can’t achieve that salon mani/pedi ourselves. Topless and Barefoot and Madmoiselle are my go to Essie colors right now!
Monochromatic Sets
I am all about the tan on tan, cream on tan, grey on grey looks right now. So clean, classic, crisp but also on trend and edgy. It’s all. the. things! RUN and get this hoodie before it sells out AGAIN (unfortunately the joggers that match are sold out but I’ll keep an eye out for restock). But it would be so easy to pair with these joggers from Lou & Grey. Obsessed with this plush sweatshirt from Lou & Grey also! These JoyLab joggers are butter soft and these oversized joggers from Athleta are SO cute on paired with a tee and cardigan. At home, comfy, casual style is where it’s at right now.
Makeup/Product Organization
Not sure bout you but I have cleaned every surface of my house, every closet, and reorganized my LIFE during quarantine. So make no mistake that I cleaned all my makeup brushes with this cleaner + this pad you put in your sink to really scrub the brushes. I threw out old makeup (seriously need to do this more often.. it’s no wonder I’ve been breaking out) and organized the SH*T out of everything with this makeup organizer. Love that it’s clear so I can see where everything is.
Also, this is just a side note for when we do get out of quarantine and can travel again (praise) but you need this travel makeup/product case. It’s the best. Check the reviews. Have it. Love it.
Skinceuticals Skincare
Mmmmmk so I’m a product whore we all know this. I love to try new lines, products, the works. I will never stray from my love for Drunk Elephant and still incorporate their entire line into my regimen. But I have also started to gravitate to some medical grade skincare like Skinceuticals because I have been having some hormonal breakouts, etc and needed the big guns. I have added the following products to the lineup:
Luxe Cozy Loungewear
Robe LYFE! I swear, Barefoot Dreams has probably seen a huge spike in sales since quarantine. Been living in this robe for years but now more than ever, it gets put on DAILY. Typically around wine time. Sometimes all day. Don’t judge. If you haven’t already, get yourself a throw blanket while you’re at it. I can’t sleep without mine. I also just got this cozy lounge cardigan for.. well.. lounging (and it’s on sale!) So basically anything that is fuzzy, cozy, buttery soft.. I’m buying it. And wearing it all day. Everyday.

Tie Dye Pullovers
Like Heather mentioned we are all investing in more loungewear right now, but also want to look cute and feel somewhat pulled together. I’ve been eying this tie dye crewneck sweatshirt for a while now and finally pulled the trigger. It’s oversized, so comfortable, and versatile. Other tie dye sweatshirts is this in mauve, this, and this one.
Sports Bra Crop Tops
Since I’m working at home now I’m mostly just wearing a sports bra for my workouts. I recently bought this and this crop bra and love wearing these for my Peloton spin classes and strength training. I’m also eyeing this cute front tie sports bra.
Barefoot Dreams Blanket
Since we are all spending a lot more time at home right now I’m so thankful for my cozy barefoot dreams blanket. Seriously the softest blanket EVER. I think we are investing in ways to make our homes more comfortable since we are spending so much time at home and these blankets are a dream. The Rack also has (a smaller version) on major sale!
Homemade Lattes
Heather and I are both still hitting up the drive thru Starbucks most days, but I’m loving making my own lattes at home. I have this Nespresso coffee maker and a Nespresso milk frother. I love frothing Nut Pods creamer or this almond milk froths really well. If I want to add a little sweetness I’ll add a few drops of vanilla creme stevia to the milk frother. I also add two scoops of Vital Proteins and top with ceylon cinnamon. Delish!
