Fall is hereeee, and that means cozy loungewear! We are all about the comfy, soft pieces, and have been looking for a good pair of cozy slippers that are affordable and also durable. We found this grey pair of slippers from Koolaburra that we LOVE. They are backless, so super easy to slip on and off. We love wearing them around the house, but also if you have to run out to get something outside of your apartment or house (we all have those instances), you can rock these because of their rubber sole!Not only do they make super cute slippers, Koolaburra has some really adorable booties, boots, and snow boots. Most of their boots are all under $100, which is amazing for these type of quality boots. They also make kids shoes!
Some of our other favorite shoes from them are these black suede booties, these neutral suede sneakers (super cute with jeans!), and these suede loafer-style slippers! And, since we are on the topic of cozy, we wanted to share our favorite hot teas we like to sip on! We love a hot tea any time of day, especially at night. We usually add some stevia or raw honey to ours to sweeten.Some of our favorite teas are:
Happy October! We have been getting so many requests to do some of our favorite mall makeup and beauty products, so these are some we have tried and love, or have heard great things about!
In case you missed our post on natural makeup we are using, you can read all about that here.
Dew Skin Moisturizing Coverage: We love this one for lighter makeup days. It has just enough coverage and leaves your skin looking dewy and fresh. It also has SPF20 in it, so it is great to apply in the mornings before heading out!
Flawless In Five Kit: this was the first thing we ordered to test some of their stuff out and fell in love! It is a great starter kit if you want to see how you like them.

Happy Sunday! Just wanted to pop in and tell you one of our favorite retailers, LOFT, is having a surprise sale- ALL half off + free shipping, so we wanted to share our favorites with you all. They have great pieces for fall, especially pieces for work!
One of our favorite retailers, Shopbop is offering up to 25% off your ENTIRE order with code STOCKUP18. It is a great time to stock up on fall staples like the pieces we shared above!
Some pieces we want to highlight:
These Stuart Weitzman HiLine boots are pretty pricey, but are AMAZINGGG. We got a pair and wish we had gotten them before they went on sale! They are 25% off right now and you will wear these for years. We got a size 7.
These Levis ripped jeans are a pair we got years ago and still wear so often! We got a size 24 in them, but they run small!
Y’all know alllll about these Tory Burch Miller sandals, and we love them. We literally wear ours every single day, haha. We have this leopard color in a size 7.
Ever since we started not feeling well about two years ago (more in this post and this post), we have been trying to make an effort to switch over some of our beauty products to more natural ones. We had honestly never thought about what we are putting on our body (just what was actually going in it). When you really start doing some digging, you realize there are a lot of products that are not as “safe”, and we have really become our own advocates when it comes to our health because you’re the only person who can really vouch for yourself!
One of our friends told us about a website called ewg.com, where you can look up any product and how safe it is! We didn’t/haven’t switch everything over just yet– mainly our deodorant, makeup, skincare, body lotion, body wash, and sunscreen. We are not perfect with it, and will probably never be, but it is a start!
We found out about a company called Beautycounter, and were honestly pretty skeptical just because we had seen it on social media and hadn’t tried it, but we decided to give it a shot and fell in LOVE! First off, we love what they stand for.
Most of the makeup we had been using (some, not all) had some ingredients that we didn’t want to be putting on our skin daily. Beautycounter has something called the The Never List™, which is made up of more than 1,50o questionable or harmful chemicals they will never use in their products. When we started our health journey, we read up on how Europe and other countries have wayyyyy more restrictions when it comes to products used in personal care products, which is crazy!
We wanted to share some of our favorite products we have tried so far, and some we are planning on ordering soon and will keep you all posted on those!
Cleansing Balm: leaves your skin super soft. A little goes a long way, so it lasts you months. You can use it for SO many things: cleanser, mask, and makeup remover! Hands down, our favorite product. Oh, and it’s great for any skin type!
Resurfacing Peel: makes your skin feel so soft and brighter! We have been using it for a few weeks and love the results.
Flawless In Five Kit: this was the first thing we ordered to test some of their stuff out and fell in love! It is a great starter kit if you want to see how you like them.
Lip Gloss: love the “peony” and “bare shimmer” colors
Countermatch Line: We have tried the facial lotion and LOVE how lightweight it feels, and the rest of the line is next on our list to try!
Dew Skin Moisturizing Coverage: We love this one for lighter makeup days. It has just enough coverage and leaves your skin looking dewy and fresh. It also has SPF20 in it, so it is great to apply in the mornings before heading out!
Countersun Mineral Sunscreen: This one is major because it is formulated with non-nano zinc oxide and antioxidant-rich California Poppy. This one is a spray so it is super easy to apply! It goes on white for better application, but dries quickly! It also comes in a travel size.
ALSO!! We wanted to talk about a special perk that we just signed up for called Band Of Beauty.
It is basically an Amazon Prime for Beautycounter and you get a TON of free perks and it is only $29 (one-time-fee)!
free shipping on orders over $100
15% credit to use on your next purchase with every order you place
