Well, guys. I’m not gonna lie. This month has been..weird. Obviously, with all of the strangeness happening with COVID19 and the quarantines and isolations, I just haven’t been up to my usual product testing and trying and obsession-finding self. I sat down to write this and realized how few new things I had actually tested out or discovered this month due to the sheer madness of trying to figure out a new normal. My husband and I got really sick (we think with the coronavirus based on the severity and length of the illness, but we weren’t able to get tested to be sure) and basically entered survival mode since we still had work and had to take care of Jack. BUT. I did still want to sit down and make a list of things that…if they aren’t full blown obsessions, at least they’re things I was enjoying this month. So, let’s get into it.
MONTHLY OBSESSIONS MARCH 2020
Saalt Period Cup
I am obsessed with this cup. I have turned into a TOTAL period cup believer. I am way more passionate about it than I even thought I would be. I have a HUGE blog post all about them HERE. Check it out if you’ve ever wanted to know more about period cups – check it out! Use code TAYLOR for 15% off, too.
Tarte Maracuja Tinted Hydrator
I am so surprised at how much I really liked this tinted moisturizer!!! It isn’t SUPER long lasting, but it has this really beautiful skin like finish that is fresh and dewy. It’s got a little bit of a yellow undertone but since it’s sheer, once it’s blended out, you can’t really tell. I am excited to use it more when it gets a bit warmer.
Simply Stained Shop Letter Ledge
THESE ARE SO CUTE. I am obsessed with these. They are absolutely darling. I collaborated with Lauren to create these really beautiful letter ledges for our home and when she came to me with this idea, I was like YES! I have always wanted letter ledges like this. We have so much fun picking the quotes out and it’s brings a nice warmth to our room.
Support Your Local Everything Happy Camper Co. Shirt
I love Happy Camper Co!!! They’re one of my favorite small shops in STL and I love supporting them. Right now, I’m trying to do all I can to support small shops in the area and this shirt is PERFECT. You can shop it here.
NYX Honey Dew Me Up Primer
This is an old favorite. I LOVE this primer. It’s my favorite primer of all time. It’s perfect for spring and summer because it creates this really sticky base which is great. It really adheres the foundation to my face and keeps it there all day while still maintaining a dewy finish.
OshKosh Baby Overalls
Is there anything better than a baby in overalls?!? NO WAY. Literally no. These are the CUTEST baby overalls. They look so darling on J and I want him to wear them everyday forever. 10/10.
Trader Joe’s Orange Chicken
This is one of my favorite meals to pop in the oven on a quick night. It’s so yummy and it’s totally a fan favorite in our house. It’s quick, it’s easy and all you need to do is make a pot of white rice to go with it. Love.
Colourpop Ultimate Brush Roll
I love these brushes. They’re PERFECT – you have every brush you could need. It’s a beautiful brush roll and the quality is THERE for such an affordable price. I bought them because I had used a lot of my brushes to death, they were stained and a bit rough. These were the perfect replacement.
Neon Nails
I love neon nails!! These are SO FUN for spring. I have been trying to find ways to let some sunshine and light into our days while we are stuck in the house and these are perfect to do that. They’re fun, easy to do nail art with and are super bright. I love this brand for my brights! Check out this post for how I do my gel nails at home!
Rebecca Lynn Illustrator Illustrations
I love this girl! She is such a sweetheart in real life – and so insanely talented. I ordered a few prints from her last week when she was running her 20% off print sale and I wanted to support her during this time. I also sent a few prints to my friends. It’s just makes me feel good to do what I can to help the small shop I love.
I hope you enjoy this fun list – I do really love these things. They aren’t all totally new, but they’re what I’m loving and using in my life currently!
