6 Products I Cannot Live Without

I couldn't help but be excited when the past two prompts allowed me to share my business! I hope you guys aren't tired of hearing about Arbonne yet. I just love what I do and want to share it with the world ;) So, without further ado, my favorite six products, hands down. All of these have quickly became staples in my every day life. If you do decide you want to order something and you would like a deal, just let me know!

#1 Aromassentials Awaken Sea Salt Scrub

Not only does this sea salt scrub smell absolutely amazing, it works wonders. The sea salt scrub gets rid of dead surface cells revealing brighter, healthier skin and is enhanced with the Awaken Essential Oil Blend. I use this on my hands and feet daily while taking a shower. I also have a friend who uses this as her shaving cream and her legs have never felt smoother - I can't wait to try that out!

#2 It's a Long Story Mascara

I actually tried this for the first time last night, and before doing so I told them that I wasn't going to try it because I love the mascara I am currently using. Turns out I won't be using that mascara any more because I am so impressed with Arbonne's mascara! The wand is flexible with a uniform bristle design, there was absolutely no clumping, and it went on so incredibly smooth! I can't even put into words how impressed I was by this!

#3 Lemon Fit Chews

The Lemon Fit Chews are my absolute favorite, but the Mango Pineapple ones are a very, very close second. This bite-sized treat helps control cravings and give you an energy boost. These are my go to treats for when I am having sweet cravings or before bed so I don't raid the pantry. Also, one of the best things about these chews are that there are no artificial colors, flavors, or sweeteners, they are gluten-free, and vegan certified!

#4 Shea Butter Hand & Body Lotion

This hand lotion is the bomb . com (and I swore I would never, ever, ever say that). I love how well it moisturizes my hands and leaves them feeling incredibly soft without leaving them oily. It also has an amazing smell! 

#5 Before Sun Lip Saver

Let me start off by saying it has an SPF of 30 which is great! I won this at my very first party and I haven't used another chapstick since. I love how smooth it goes on and it leaves my lips feeling great! It is vegan certified, as are all of our products, and doesn't contain beeswax which attracts bacteria to your lips.  

#6 Vanilla Protein Shake Mix

This delicious protein shake mix delivers 20 grams of vegan protein and over 20 essentials vitamins and minerals per serving. Of course it is vegan certified, gluten-free, and contains no artificial flavors, colors, or sweeteners. They make AMAZING protein bars, and you can mix just about anything in with the shakes to make it even more delicious. This has quickly become a staple in my diet. 

These Dang Weekends

Friday we had a street fair downtown that my friend and I set up a booth at. Unfortunately I had to skip out pretty early and leave her to man it by herself. Turns out on of my best friends managed to get herself stuck at the Portland airport and needed a ride home, plus she offered to let me drive her new truck down there so I had to say yes! Thankfully I talked John and Travis into coming with me and we saw a gorgeous sunset on the Columbia River, stunning horses made out of driftwood, and lots of planes and trains!

Saturday was another one of my best friend's baby showers! I had an amazing time and they got some of the cutest dang pink camo stuff ever! Plus Carson made a few new friends and was completely entertained the whole time.

Sunday we went and picked up the boys from their mom so we could have them for Father's Day and also so that we could have them for a couple weeks. Grandma watched Carson while we were gone which made it so much easier on us! After we hung out at Grandma's for a while we headed to WalMart and stocked up on a ton of Nerf guns and darts! John, Travis, the kids, and I all had a Nerf war. Those little buggers hurt at close range, ha ha!

Let's Slow Down, Please?

Dear Life, I confess.. after having Tuesday and Wednesday off to stay home and clean house I realized that I need a lot more down time. How is it that I quit my job and am five times busier than before? Please slow down because I am feeling a little stretched thin.  Dear Mail-woman, I confess.. you are probably one of my favorite people just because it is your job to deliver all of these wonderful packages to me. You make my life feel like Christmas, thank you. Obviously thanks to everyone who sends those packages in the first place too!  Dear John, I confess.. not seeing you lately has really been sucking. You working 12 hour shifts Monday through Friday and 8-9 hours on Saturday we hardly have any time together.. Especially when you still go to the gym at least 5 nights a week. We need an extra few hours in the day.
