June Random Loves
How can it be that this is the last week of June?! This month has been so busy with behind-the-scenes prep for some upcoming events, my full-time job, health issues and things in between, that I feel like I’m barely holding on. Once August comes around, things will settle down a bit….I’m already looking forward to it!
In the past month I’ve had lots of new readers stop by, so I’ll introduce this feature a little bit. Each month I post a few of my favorite items from the month and do a little write-up about it. I will say that I’m not one to just post anything into this feature, so a product has to be pretty fantastic for it to make it in.

I’m going to be completely honest with you all….I’m horrible at applying make-up. I never really learned how to properly apply it, so I’ve been attempting faking it for years. I tried having someone at the Nordstrom make-up counter do it years ago {to teach me} and that was an epic fail. I watch YouTube videos occasionally to try to learn tips, but I still have a ways to go…. in the meantime, it’s eyeshadow palettes like this one that helps a TON. It tells me exactly where each color should go, so it really can’t get any easier. I’ve only tried Natural Smokes 02Q {since it was fairly neutral}, but I want to try other palettes down the road!
coconut chips can be found here
As many of you know, I’ve recent had to eliminate all grains/ gluten from my diet, along with many other things. In my attempt to still eat semi healthy, since I can’t really exercise at the moment, I’ve been on the lookout for healthy snacks. While I love fresh fruits, sometimes I want to change it up. My sister recently brought me a bag of Dang Coconut Chips {yes, that’s the brand} and they are DELICIOUS! You could easily use them with other foods, but I like to eat them straight out of the bag. *wink* 
magic erasers can be found here
My bestie is the queen of recommending the best products. Seriously. She gets me hooked on so many things I never would have found and thankfully, most of them are fairly inexpensive. Recently she was talking about Mr. Clean Magic Erasers {after 25+ years of friendship, sometimes we talk about mundane things} and I told her I had never used one and asked why they were so great. She told me why she liked it and the next day I went out and bought a box. How in the world had I not used these before?! I got the bathroom one and it did wonders on the tub with very little elbow grease. Definitely a winner in my book.
I’ve been a fan of Instagram for quite a while now. As a person who is visual, seeing little peeks into my friends’ lives throughout the world is so much fun. In the course of poking around the app, I’ve been able to find so many new companies, bloggers and crafters. Also, seeing pictures of celebrities in their day-to-day lives is pretty neat, too! Recently Instagram added video to their app and I am IN LOVE. While I’m still a newbie to it, I can see so many great uses for it. Stay tuned…I’m thinking you’ll see some more in the future!
What are a few of YOUR random loves at the moment? It can be drinks, shows, clothing, movies, etc…. whatever products you’re loving, or have on your wish list, I’d love to read about them!
