5.23 Friday Faves
Hi friends! Happy Friday! How are you? I hope you’re having a wonderful start to the weekend. We’re back in Barcelona after an amazing Disney cruise around the Mediterranean. I have a full recap going up next week, but in the meantime, here are some pics of the fun!
I hope that you have a lovely and fun weekend ahead.
It’s time for the weekly Friday Faves party. This is where I share some of my favorite finds from the week and around the web, and I always love to hear what you’re loving. Please share any recent favorite finds in the comments section below.
5.23 Friday Faves
Fashion + beauty + random:
These supplement containers! I had to pack a lot of supplements for this trip but definitely didn’t want to pack tons of bottles in my suitcase. Two of these + a little container I already had supplied me with 60 days of supplements using minimal space. BOOM.
Spain nails! I had my dip nails taken off a couple of weeks ago because I knew I didn’t want to mess with dip on the trip. (It lasts so well on my nails but I didn’t want to get them done while we’re gone.) I was giong for something super low maintenance that can last for 6-8 without the grow-out being obvious. She did such an amazing job.
(Tucson friends: I go to Gelish nails and have seen at least five different people who have all been amazing)
MDW sales. So many great sales this weekend, but here are some of my top picks:
HigherDOSE – 20% off sitewide with the code FITNESSISTA20. This is the time to get a sauna blanket, PEMF Go Mat, Red Light face mask, or red light hat. Shop it up here.
Anthropologie – extra 40% off sale!
HUGE deal on AirDoctors. These have made such a huge difference for us during allergy season.
This is a secret promo but you can use FITNESSISTA40 for 40% off your starter meal kit at We Feed Raw. Maisey LOVES this food!
OneSkin. The OS-01 tinted moisturizer is my all-time fave SPF moisturizer and I also loooove their Os-01 body lotion.
Read, watch, listen:
Powerful mindset shifts to stop worrying about what other people think.
LOVED this podcast episode with two of my favorite guys.
Fitness, health, and good eats:
Simple strawberry jam in the bread machine.
More reasons to protect your sleep.
Thank you so much for stopping by the blog today! Have an amazing weekend and I’ll see ya soon!
xoxo
