Iloveapril

josie maran body & face sunscreen (newly discovered natural sunscreen), essie Ole Caliente polish (with this as a non-toxic base and top coat), SMASH date stamp, anthropologie painted mugs, blowfish nordie flats, tarte lights, camera, lashes! non-toxic mascara (this stuff is fantastic), david's tea alpine punch & forever nuts, OXO tea kettle.

Super random round-up, I know. But these are my favorites so far this month.

    This is great! I was just looking for an all natural mascara. I will definitely try this one out. Any other all natural make-up finds worthy of sharing? I’d love to know!

    Great picks! If you love alpine punch you MUST try Jolly Jellybean, from the spring line of teas. You won’t be sorry 😉 love that your list has CDN teas 🙂

    I always love the fun shoes you wear and it finally clicked to me that a lot of them are from Blowfish. I looked them up and am so bummed they don’t offer anything in size 9.5! I guess I’ll just have to enjoy them on your feet 🙂

    Lights, Camera, Lashes! is my HOLY GRAIL of mascaras! I hope you picked it up during Ulta’s Days of Beauty sale for $10! And I love that Antro mug… JustATitch gave me one for Christmas. Amy’s such a sweetie!

    I’ve been using the Josie Maran argan oil as my moisturizer for the past 4 months and am obsessed with it. I stopped using it for a week (forgetfulness, laziness, etc) and my face demanded I get back with the program.
    Might need to get the sunscreen for the summer.

    I just started using Tarte tinted moisturizer and I love it so much more than the foundation I used to use. It goes on light but it gives pretty good coverage, and taking it off isn’t like scrubbing paint off my face. I’ve thought about which of their products I want to try next and I do believe the mascara will be it.

    I did not even know they sold it at ulta!! Ordered from sephora with a gift card, but wonderful to know! 🙂

    bummer! I did not realize that! I usually wear an 8, but fit into the blowfish 7.5s … might be worth it to try a 9 and then free return if not? 🙂

    hey! Yes, LOVE the mascara. And some of the bare minerals face stuff is good and mineral ID has some good powder too.

    I love the random “that warrants a fist pump” – I have a friend from New Jersey that would absolutely love that. I’m also dittoing Giuseppina’s question as well, and saying that I love those mugs. Have a great weekend!

    Hi Elise, I’m excited about the Josie Maran rec. Are you still using the Pangea Organics facial moisturizer as well, or just Josie Maran?

    It is AWESOME! I am still using pangea organics for days that I will be in the house and for night face lotion. Super happy with both. 🙂
