Top 3 Favorite Products

Clinique Moisture Surge {$39}

Laura Mercier Setting Powder {$38} I use the Translucent shade

L'Oreal Paris Voluminous Mascara Primer {$8}

These are my top three holy grail products that I use over and over again. 

I love the Clinique Moisture Surge Hydrating Serum for my neck in the summer. In the colder months I tend to use it more often on my face when the air is dry. It is also wonderful after a long plane flight. I will be traveling soon so I plan to bring it with me! 

The Laura Mercier Translucent Setting Powder has worked wonders in this hot summer months. The powder really works to keep my makeup in place all day while giving me a little bit of a matte finish. Nordstrom also sells the product in a Medium Deep shade if you have darker skin! 

Finally, my mascara primer by L'Oreal is amazing!! I have used other primers in the past but switched to this one about a year ago and have not looked back. It goes on smooth without clumping which means I can put less coats of mascara on my eyelashes. I use it when I want a more fuller look, especially when my eye lash extensions are not in. ALSO, its $8 so what is not to love about it. 

Do you have a favorite makeup product that you cannot live without?

Daily Devotional

I recently got an Amazon shipment of books in the mail and wanted to share with y'all what I got. I was looking for a new devotional and found Melanie Shankle's book, "Everyday Holy". I just started it on Monday but have been loving it so far! I recommend checking out one of her books.

I also picked up "Twenty Two" by Allison Trowbridge and Bob Goff's book, "Everybody Always". I started "Twenty Two" and have already fallen in love with it. She talks about her journey through college and learning who she is along the way. The author talks about travels abroad, travels in faith, and travels within herself to find who she is. 

Have any of you read Bob Goff's book yet? I cannot wait to get started on it!

My Vitamins/Supplements

In my last post, I wrote about my workout plan I am starting to follow! Along with working out, I am trying to focus on eating healthier and taking better vitamins/supplements. To be clear, all my information about vitamins and supplements has come from talking to my doctors, researching online, and finding the best fit for me.

Currently, I am transitioning back to eating meat again. I have been vegetarian for almost 8 years now and am working on switching back for health reasons. Now with all that in mind, lets jump into it!

First off I take two powder supplements, a Protein Powder for after my workouts and then a Collagen Peptide I mix in every so often. I started taking collagen after Tracy Hensel talked about it, here.  I get mine off Amazon but I actually found my Protein at TJMaxx one day (super random, I know).

Then in the morning when I wake up I take Vitamin C and my Women's Daily Multivitamin! I typically take these after my workout and breakfast. I like to have eaten something before taking any supplements/vitamins.

Typically after lunch I will finish off my vitamins with a Fish Oil, two Juice Plus (I typically do a veggie & fruit), and a D3.








I definitely do not take a whole lot. Somethings I will mix in an Iron because I am vegetarian so it helps with hair loss.

Too keep everything organized, I use two pill sorters. I have this but love this as well. It helps keep me organized and know what I should take each day. Plus its a huge time saver instead of opening and closing all those bottles!!

Do you take any vitamins? If so, which ones do you love or swear by??
