Number 1 on my current Favorites list is: Trader Joes Inner Peas snack. If you're into salty goodies, this is a fine snack for you. I can normally have a small handful of these aside my lunch and be completely content. They are fluffy, obviously taste like peas, slightly salted, and guilt-free. Yes, you can always have a handful of raw snowpeas too, but these obviously feel more like a "healthy chip," for me just to satisfy a naughty craving. I also like that they are $1.29 at Trader Joes.
Number 2: Giorgio Armani's Acqua di Gioia perfume. Conveniently a Make-Up Artist/Hair Genius and fabulously chic pal of mine** gave me a sample tube of this perfume back in May, and I instantly fell in love with it! Its a beautiful fragrance. Normally I either wear Michael Kors original perfume or Dolce & Gabbanas "The One," and this fragrance seems to fall in line with these. It is not musty or super floral. This smells very clean, fresh, and feminine. I also gravitated towards this perfume more recently because I found that it was a part of the Unicef Tap Project. The company donates $5 for each Acqua di Giò and Acqua di Gioia fragrance purchased in the U.S. from March 1-31 to the U.S. Fund for UNICEF.
Number 3: Skull Candy's Brown/Gold w/mic Aviator Headphones. As you can tell, I like things that are a bit more fashion forward, so when looking to purchase quality headphones, I really wanted something that stood out and didn't look massive on my girly head. These headphones are AMAZING. I can't tell you how many compliments I get from wearing these. They are not massive, the headband is soft, the ear muffs are adjustable, the wire doesn't tangle, there is a mic included, and not to mention the sound quality is top notch. Now, if you're looking for headphones with a TON of base, dont go for these. These are more of an equalizer, making the sounds extremely crisp. Definitely a great purchase, as I will be using these headphones for a long time!
Number 4: My awesome sunnies from H&M! I was in desperate need of a laid back black pair of sunglasses. These are cheap, fashionable, and totally do their job! Love 'em.
Number 5: Ray Bans glasses. These are NOT prescription glasses, although you could take them in and get lenses put in them. I use these for all of my "hipster-y" outfits. :] I will say though, that I AM getting Warby Parker glasses soon so eventually these Faux Glasses will not be used as much. Haha. Also, I dont have a link for these because my mom got them at the super secret flea market she goes to with her sisters before Christmas.
Number 6: Tresemme Dry Shampoo! I love this stuff! I don't wash my hair every day because my hair will get extremely oily if I do. So on the days that I feel like my hair needs a bit more texture, or if I feel like my hair is becoming slightly more oily than I would like, I spritz some of this magic into my roots and gently rub my fingers through the product. I swear by this stuff!
Number 7: Activate! These drinks are beyond amazing. I am obsessed. Obsessed! I actually ordered a crate of them off of Amazon because I'm that in love. I prefer the Lemon Lime flavor. These drinks look like water, until you turn the knob on top where all of the vitamins fall out and dissolve into the water! Tons of vitamins, ZERO calories, tastes good, and NO aspartame! Can't lose.
Number 8: Yep! Told ya! This is literally my all time fav. and could potentially be on every single favorite list I make. Haha! This is the EOS lip balm in Sweet Mint. I can't say enough about this product. Ever since I can remember, I have searched for a lip balm that doesn't counter-act my lips. I like my lips to always feel hydrated and soft (like everyone) so whenever I would apply any chapstick, after a few hours my lips would start peeling! No lie. I was like.. isn't this supposed to do the opposite? Eventually I gave up and became an extreme lipglosser. (Doesn't that sound cool? Almost like a sport of some sort. haha.) But after all these gosh darn years, my mom gave me an Eos lip balm in my stocking for Christmas..and since then, I have not looked back. I apply morning, afternoon, and night. The mint leaves your lips feeling tingly and smooth. LOVE.
Number 9: Nourish Organic lightweight face lotion with Argan & Rosewater. I received a sample tube of this magic from IPSY. The scent is a mixture of light florals and citrus. As soon as you apply a small bit of this lotion to your face, you will feel like you didn't put ANYTHING on it. Thats how light it feels! Absolutely ZERO oily or grimy feelings after application. I put this on after my shower, and only apply once. Honestly, its all you really need! Especially with this weather being as temperamental as it is, you really want something that will continue to hydrate and make your face feel fresh and smooth all day. Try it out!
Thats all I have for you today! I feel silly that I did a list of only 9 items and not an even number! Its really bugging me. But next time, I will make it a solid 10! Promise.
