Hello you guys, welcome back to another episode of the Hawkgral Energy Podcast.
0:17
I'm your host, Kaylee, and this is your weekly reminder that it's a
0:20
new day, a new week, a new mindset, and another day for
0:23
you to become the Hawkgirl energy you want to attract. Hello everyone, welcome
0:28
back to another episode. I hope you guys are having an amazing week so
0:32
far. My week has been quite interesting, just because I feel like my
0:40
brain is completely all scrambled because there is so much going on with work,
0:47
with taxes, with wedding planning, with everything. Just I feel like everything
0:53
is just crazy right now. And also I'm traveling this week and going to
0:56
London, as you guys know, to go do some wedding plan and wedding
1:00
appointments, which I'm so excited about. So you know, it's always chaotic
1:03
right before you leave and you're just trying to get everything done before you travel.
1:07
So this podcast episode is not going to be too long. It's going
1:11
to be kind of short and sweet. But I really wanted to make an
1:14
April Favorites episode because I used to do favorite episodes all the time, just
1:17
like my monthly favorites and all that and I feel like I haven't done that
1:19
in a long time, probably because I've been traveling so much these past few
1:23
months. But I was, like, you know what, I did spend
1:26
majority of April here at home, and I had a lot of new rituals
1:30
that I took into place, tried a lot new recipes, a few products
1:36
that I've other received or purchased myself, and thought I would share all that
1:40
good stuff with you guys. I don't know about you guys, but I
1:42
used to love watching YouTube videos like this back in the day when people would
1:47
do monthly favorites, whether it was makeup products, wellness products, clothing products,
1:51
all that. I find it's a great way to also discover new brands,
1:55
smaller businesses, or just you know, products that you may not have
1:59
been aware of that might be your new go to fave. So, I
2:02
don't know, I like listening to things like this, and I like watching
2:06
things like this just because I am fully influenced by anyone. I'm not even
2:09
kidding, Like as an influencer, I still feel like I'm influenced by other
2:13
influencers to purchase things, to try new things out all that. I don't
2:16
know if anyone else is like that, But I feel like I get majority
2:20
of my things from other influencers, whether it's clothing, beauty products, and
2:24
like that. I'd rather have someone try the product out first, obviously and
2:30
then give their honest review on it instead of me dropping, you know,
2:32
eighty dollars on a foundation at Sephora and then not be worth the hype.
2:38
Right, So, having influencers that are actually down to earth and sharing their
2:42
honest experience and their honest review on products that actually work or don't work,
2:46
I literally envy, And yeah, I just thought, you know what,
2:50
I like to do that. I like to share products with you guys and
2:53
tell you, guys, are these products worth the hype or not? And
2:55
also just yeah, recipes and all that. I feel like I have been
3:00
really into trying new recipes lately. I feel like that's always been a thing
3:02
for Zach and I. For dinner recipes, I always find them on Pinterest
3:07
or on Instagram reels. So I'm like, you know what, I just
3:08
want to compile some of my favorite things that I love, which is literally
3:14
products and cooking. I would say those are my favorite things and just shopping.
3:17
So yeah, I thought I would do an episode dedicated to that.
3:20
Before I get into this episode, I'll just give a little weekend recap.
3:23
I spent a lot of time walking outside this weekend. I think it was
3:28
because it was actually somewhat nice out. I wouldn't say it was like sunny
3:31
and twenty but it was a little gloomy, but the weather was nice and
3:36
warm, and I have just been loving walking again. I feel like I
3:39
wasn't really walking much obviously because of the winter season, and I go on
3:44
walks, but they're not that long. It's literally quick walks with the dog,
3:47
and it's just like not really enjoyable because you're literally freezing your ass off.
3:52
So, you know, Zach and I we spent a lot of time
3:53
this weekend just trying to go outside, walking the dog, heading up coffee
3:58
shops. I also just love hitting up local coffee shops, you know,
4:01
going to bakeries. We got a lot of fresh bread, which was so
4:05
nice, like fresh croissants, fresh sour dough bread, trying out different pastries.
4:12
All that. I didn't really film much this weekend, I think just
4:14
because Zach and I were both getting over a cold and we just really wanted
4:17
to lay low and not even kidding. I think we literally watched two seasons
4:21
of Grazes and Out of You this weekend. Like it was very, very
4:25
chill, which I feel like I needed a weekend like that of just doing
4:29
literally nothing. We did some like cleaning and I did some packing prep for
4:34
me leaving this week for London, but it was pretty low key and I
4:36
feel like I just needed a weekend like that before having a crazy next few
4:41
days with traveling. So yeah, it was all in all, it was
4:44
a really nice weekend. But I hope you guys had a good weekend as
4:46
well. So let's get into this episode. I'm going to be sharing rituals
4:51
that I've adapted to this month, some recipes that I found that I'm obsessed
4:57
with, some wellness product phase that I've recent adapted into my routine, or
5:00
just products that I've tried recently, as well as some beauty and clothing faves.
5:05
Let's talk about rituals for a second. I think one of them I
5:08
basically already touched on this weekend, which was going on longer walks. I
5:12
also find it's a way for me to stress. I feel like lately there's
5:15
been a lot of stress going on with everything happening, and you guys know,
5:20
if you're a bride, you just know it's crazy. I do not
5:23
understand how people plan a wedding on top of their full time job. But
5:26
anyways, doing that, just managing everything that has to get done before the
5:30
wedding, as well as just stress with work and taxes. It's tax season
5:34
right now, so I feel like that's been super stressful. But I just
5:39
need to find ways to distress myself. And there's two things that I feel
5:42
like I love to do, and that is taking a cold shower as well
5:46
as going on longer walks. So sometimes in the morning, after I eat
5:48
my breakfast or my workout, I'll go in the shower and I'll literally just
5:51
like stand there under the water and just literally shut my eyes and let the
5:56
water just like touch my skin essentially, and it just it calms my body
6:00
down and it recharges me to get the day started. And then going on
6:04
walks. Usually I go on a walk around my lunch time break and it's
6:09
just getting some fresh air, it's getting some movement, and again just like
6:13
clearing my mind, destressing myself. And yeah, I find like those two
6:16
things have been my favorite thing to do lately just to ease my stress and
6:20
anxiety. Another thing I've been doing as well is some meditation. That is
6:25
something that I've been trying to adapt into my routine. I'm trying to do
6:28
it at least twice a week. I've been using this app called Open.
6:31
I don't know if you guys have heard of it. I'm actually working with
6:33
them on Instagram, but having access to their platform is so amazing. I
6:38
actually really really like it. It is so soothing. Some of the classes
6:42
that I've done is just like ten to fifteen minutes, I literally just put
6:46
out my yoga mat, light a candle, set the vibe of the room,
6:49
shut my eyes and completely just zone out and just really try to focus
6:53
on my breath work and just really try to ease my anxiety and stress and
6:58
all that. So that's another thing I've been doing is meditation, and usually
7:00
I do it right after work before Zach gets home from work, just for
7:04
me to, yeah, try and adapt it into my nightly routine. And
7:09
yeah, it's just something I've been trying to do for ten to fifteen minutes
7:12
of my night and just really allows me to again focus on my breath work,
7:16
focus on myself and just better myself. So those are two things that
7:19
I've been doing. Another thing I've been trying to do is get back into
7:24
my early morning routine. If you guys follow me on socials, you guys
7:28
know that I've been trying to strive to do my five am slash six am
7:31
morning routine. I probably do it twice a week. I wouldn't say I
7:35
do it every single day because obviously there's people who messed with me and they're
7:40
like, why do you even do this? Like you have the flexibility of
7:42
waking up anytime you want. You know, you could start your job at
7:45
eleven am if you wanted to. It doesn't really apply to like why do
7:47
you wake up so early? I wake up early because I personally find I
7:51
feel ten times more productive throughout my day, and I honestly feel the best
7:56
on those days. So I strive to do Spinko classes like two to three
8:00
times a week. And I've been trying to do two six thirty classes and
8:03
then one that I'll usually do on the weekend with Zach, And I don't
8:07
know, I feel so good those days, and yeah, it's definitely hard
8:11
to wake up early, but I know how good I feel after it,
8:13
and I think that's the motivation that I have, is just knowing how productive
8:18
I feel throughout my day once I actually get that workout done. So I
8:22
don't know, I just feel like on days where I don't wake up early,
8:26
sometimes I feel kind of scattered. But I'm a planner. I try
8:28
my best to plan out my days as much as I can. But I
8:31
feel like with my job, it can be, you know, all over
8:35
the map, and that's just the reality of my career. But definitely trying
8:39
to make my early mornings as often as I can, just because that's when
8:43
I do feel my best. But I'm obviously going on a trip, so
8:46
I'm going to be out of routine obviously for the week, and then once
8:50
I get back, I'll get back into it. But the sun is finally
8:52
rising at like six am in the morning, which literally makes it so much
8:58
easier to wake up by find it's pitch block outside, Like I want to
9:01
go back to bed. I'm like, why am I up at this time?
9:03
It's pitch block outside. But when I'm up, the sun is slowly
9:07
rising. It's actually really pretty to see, and I don't know, there's
9:11
just something but waking up at sunrise. There's just this feeling that I can't
9:13
describe. But yeah, when the sun's rising at six am, you know
9:18
summer is close, and it just gets me so excited. And yeah,
9:22
one thing that I'm really excited for is going on my runs. I officially
9:28
got the Hokah running shoes, which is one of the product phase that I
9:31
was going to say for wellness. But I haven't ran with them yet because
9:37
I just got them in yesterday, but I'm hoping I can get a run
9:41
in maybe tomorrow morning or after my trip. I don't know yet, but
9:45
I will give you guys a full review on those shoes once I actually use
9:48
them. But I'm getting back into my running era and I'm so excited and
9:52
yeah, I just was waiting for the shoes to come in because my current
9:56
running shoes are not good for running. I'm talking. I had really bad
10:01
knee pain after going on a few runs in the summer last year, and
10:05
I'm like, hey, I can't do that this year. I actually have
10:07
to invest in good running shoes. So getting into running is something that I
10:11
also want to do when I get back from London. So that's something that
10:15
I'll be starting up. Another thing I have been doing weekly is Reformer pilates.
10:20
I love plates so much and I do pilates at home a lot with
10:24
Form. If you guys don't know what Form is, that's Sammy Clark's platform.
10:28
She has a great workout platform for people who want to do workouts at
10:31
home. I usually do her classes probably once or twice a week. But
10:37
we just recently got a plate studio opened up closer to my house and they
10:41
do Matt plates and Reformer plates. I've been doing the Reformer plates now and
10:45
I love it. It is such a good workout, like you are working
10:50
muscles that you've never worked out before. And I have not used a Reformer
10:54
machine in I want to say, two or three years. The last time
10:58
I went was during CO and it was a different type of reformer. It
11:03
was a Mega Reformer. This is just a normal Reformer and I did the
11:05
introduction class. I did a class a few weeks ago, and then I
11:09
did another class as well, So I'm starting to get the hang of it.
11:13
But you were just working muscles that you've never worked before, and the
11:16
shake that you feel is insane. But it definitely feels good to try something
11:20
new, try something different, and it's been something that I've been trying to
11:24
do once or twice a week. So yeah, I mean, I've only
11:26
been home for four weeks since my previous trip, so i feel like I'm
11:30
adapting to a routine. I'm leaving again and then I'm gonna have to adapt
11:33
to a new routine again, or at least the routine that i was in.
11:37
So once I'm back from that trip, it's gonna be much easier to
11:39
yeah, just be consistent more with my workout routine and all that. But
11:43
yeah, I'm excited for these next few months just to be home and just
11:48
really nail down the Hawk Girls summer routine, which we're going to be talking
11:52
about Hawk Girl Summer hopefully in the episode that I get back from London we'll
11:56
talk more about summer stuff. But that is something that I've been striving to
12:00
do, yeah, weekly, and it's just been my new fave. So
12:03
now let's get into recipes. I've been trying so many different types of recipes
12:07
that I've found through Pinterest or from my recent travels and just trying to like
12:11
recreate it at home. And if you follow me on TikTok, you guys
12:16
know that I recreated this salad that I had in La. It was called
12:20
Libel. It's from a restaurant called Zinc. So if you're in Scottsdale,
12:26
Arizona, or in LA they have locations there, but I first discovered it
12:30
when I was in Arizona. And it is so good and it's the most
12:35
basic salad ever, and it's so easy to make at home. All you
12:39
need is arugula, shredded parmesan, cherry, tomatoes, chicken. I've been
12:45
using rotisserie chicken just to make it easy, brown rice, half an avocado,
12:50
and then you just mix siracha and mayo to make a dressing and you
12:54
put it on top. It is literally so good, guys, you need
12:58
to try it. Very basic, very easy, and it's just, yeah,
13:01
it's nice to have easy lunches like that, because I feel like lunches
13:03
for me is something that I always struggle with and I always just resort to
13:07
something that's easy, something that's quick. So I've been having that honestly a
13:11
lot lately. And I'm trying to create a series on my TikTok of just
13:15
trying new lunch recipes because I literally hate lunch if I could just have a
13:18
snack for lunch, I'd be happy. But obviously that's not enough and it's
13:22
not feeling enough for your day. So yeah, I just am trying to
13:26
incorporate healthier recipes into my lunch routine. Another good lunch that I've been loving
13:31
is feta and eggs. I have the luxury of making lunch right here on
13:35
the spot since I work from home, and I've been loving scrambled eggs with
13:39
feta cheese and then I also add like spinach, cherry tomatoes, I add
13:43
some rawch on top, and I make it a toast. It's so good,
13:46
I'm literally obsessed with it. I'll also link some of these recipes in
13:50
the bio here that way you guys can see some of the things I'm talking
13:54
about. Another one I've been making is taco soup. This has been Zach
13:58
and I's face thing. Ever, I'm not even kidding. We used to
14:01
have tacos all the time, and then you know, when you just have
14:03
something so much you get sick and tired of it. I'm like, okay,
14:05
we need to change it up. Like I'm not liking this whole taco
14:09
thing anymore. So then I was like, oh, like, let's search
14:13
up there's like other ways to incorporate tacos, because I don't know. I
14:16
love tacos still, but I was just getting sick and tired of the tacos
14:20
in a wrap. I don't know. So in the soup, it's kind
14:24
of like a chili. You add beans, you can add jlipinos, corn
14:28
dice, tomatoes, ground beef, onion, all that, and then you
14:33
can obviously add chicken broth to it, which makes it more of a soup
14:35
or beef broth, and it's so so good. It's just all in all
14:41
a really easy recipe to make, especially for people who want a meal prep
14:43
for the week. It's a great meal prep option to have for lunch during
14:46
the week as well. So Zach and I make that and usually we get
14:50
like five to six servings out of it, which is great. So that's
14:52
something we've been loving. And then breakfast bowls, I've been loving this just
14:56
to add like scrambled eggs, spin it, balsam mcglaze on top again with
15:03
some shredded parmesan anything that you can also add, cut a bacon or sausage
15:07
into it. Just really just trying to create breakfast bowls at home has been
15:11
another favorite thing that I love, and I've been sucking at my at home
15:16
coffee lately, like I've actually hated it, like just I don't know the
15:20
creamer. I'm over it. I love my oat milk, but there was
15:24
just something missing in my current coffee recipe that I've been missing out on,
15:30
and I was thinking, I'm like, what is my favorite coffee recipe that
15:31
I could make at home? And that is the brown oat shaken espressot Starbucks.
15:35
Personally, that is the only drink I actually got Starbucks. I find
15:39
Starbucks is honestly not hitting anymore. I don't know if anybody else feels that
15:43
way, but I prefer going to a local coffee shop over going to Starbucks.
15:46
It's just like not my thing anymore. So I try to avoid Starbucks
15:50
as much as I can, just because it's not my favorite thing in the
15:52
world, and I think the quality of the coffee is actually not that great.
15:56
So I've been trying to recreate the brown sugar shaken espresso from home,
16:00
and a lot of you guys actually gave me tips in my most recent video
16:03
and literally mastered it now and it's my new favorite thing ever. So you
16:08
put your espresso shot and cinnamon, and I put a bit of maple syrup
16:12
into a cocktail shaker with ice. You shake that up to get it super
16:17
foamy. Then I put oat milk and in the espresso shot. Forgot to
16:19
mention this part. I actually pour the brown sugar into my espresso cup before
16:23
I brew my espresso. That way, it's like really sweetened in there.
16:27
And I just add a bit of maple syrup for extra sweetener, just because
16:30
I really like my coffee sweet. So that's what I've been doing. I
16:33
can try and make a TikTok or an Instagram reel of just how I do
16:37
it. But that has been my new go to coffee recipe and it's actually
16:41
been really really good, and I'm so happy because I freaking hated my coffee
16:45
recipe a few weeks ago. And now I'm in a kick of making coffee
16:48
at home verst buying, which obviously I want to do. I don't want
16:49
to spend money on a coffee every single day because I can get expensive.
16:53
But you know, we treat ourself once a week, why not. And
16:56
then the last thing that I'm going to highlight for a recipe. This is
17:00
actually a recipe I found from my favorite YouTubers. I don't know if anyone
17:03
watches Julia and Hunter Haven's they're like one of my favorite YouTube couples ever.
17:07
I love their channel so much. But they are on their health and wellness
17:11
kick right now and they've been posting a lot of recipes on their YouTube channel
17:15
just them cooking, and one of the recipes that they recently posted was the
17:18
sweet potato burger sliders. This has been a game changer. Like I'm not
17:25
even kidding. Sweet potatoes as like the bun instead of bread, and you
17:30
make them into little sliders instead of big burgers. So Zach and I we
17:33
just form the burgers with ground beef into little patties and then we add you
17:38
know, bacon, lettuce, tomato, a little bit of cheese. You
17:42
can also make the burger sauce. I mean, it's not the healthiest thing
17:45
in the world, but it definitely makes it taste really really good. But
17:48
I would say that's been our go to, like weekend dinner treat because it's
17:52
super easy. You just slice up the sweet potato, put it in the
17:55
oven, and make them into like the little sweet potato patties and I don't
18:00
know, it's just so good. Again. I will link all the recipes
18:02
down below that I talked about, but it's been one of our go to
18:06
dinner recipes on the weekend and it's just our fave. Okay, next time
18:08
I talk about is some wellness products. I've actually received a few of these
18:12
products recently from PR and one of the ones I'm going to highlight that I
18:18
am obsessed with currently is Lemmy. If you guys don't know, let Me
18:22
It is Courtney Kardashian's brand. She has different kinds of vitamins, whether it's
18:27
let Me Sleep, let Me MATCHA, which is like an energy vitamin,
18:33
hair skin in nails vitamin, and then I believe there's one more. I
18:37
think it's Distress, but let Me Distress. I'm pretty sure I've only tried
18:42
the hair, nails, and skin. I have not tried the let Me
18:47
Sleep yet, but I have heard really good things about that. Apparently it
18:51
knocks you out, So maybe I'll try that tonight to be honest, because
18:53
I need a good sleep before I leave, So I think I might try
18:59
that tonight, but I haven't tried that one yet. And then she also
19:00
sent me the Distress one, which I'm like, I need the Distress one
19:03
so badly. But yeah, so if you haven't tried, let me definitely
19:07
tried out. I've heard amazing things about the brand from a lot of other
19:11
influencers, but I'm so excited that they sent it over. And yeah,
19:15
as I said, I've only tried the hair, skin, and nails.
19:18
I don't want to say that, oh my god, my hair is longer,
19:19
my skin is better, blah blah blah. It's only been like three
19:22
weeks so, but I hear really really good things about the brand, and
19:25
from what I've had so far, just the taste of the vitamins all that,
19:29
it's actually really good. Another thing that I got recently is my Broommate
19:33
water bottle. If you guys know the brand Broommate. It is a essentially
19:38
like a Stanley water bottle, but it's not the Stanley. But what I
19:41
love about it is that it's alockable straw, so you can close the top
19:48
and it won't leak, so it's leakproof. It has the cutest colors,
19:52
and it's just obviously very aesthetic. And I just needed a good water bottle
19:56
because I felt like my simple modern ones. I love them to this day.
20:00
But the size I had was a twenty ounce and this one is a
20:03
forty ounce, so I wanted to have a bigger water bottle and my sister
20:07
was kind enough to gift it to me for my birthday because she knew I
20:10
wanted a broommate so badly. And they are not easy to get a hold
20:14
of either. I feel like TikTok is always selling things out, but I
20:17
believe my sister got mine off of Amazon, but you could also get it
20:19
off like Anthropology and the Broommate website just turn on notifications when the product comes
20:25
back into stock. But it has been my favorite lately and I love it
20:29
so much. And the lock of a feature is so great because I feel
20:32
like, sometimes when I'm running errands or anything like that, I don't want
20:34
to carry my water bottle, so I just put the lock feature on and
20:37
I throw it in my purse and I'm good to go. So having your
20:41
water bottle like leakproof and having in your purse when you're running errands or anything
20:45
like that is so key. So yeah, that's been my favorite. Honestly,
20:51
my favorite product from this list. I'm not even kidding, it's been
20:52
amazing. This is not really a specific product, but I feel like I've
20:56
been seeing this trend going on from social lately, and I feel like a
21:00
lot of the big chest girlies are gonna be like Kaylie, I've been doing
21:03
this for years, like because it's the double sports bra trend. I obviously
21:08
don't have that big of a chest, but I just love the way it
21:11
looks with layering, whether it's bras or tank tops anything like that, but
21:15
for active wear, I feel like it's been super cute and super in so
21:18
lately I've been wearing a white sports bra and then just layering it with my
21:22
black sports bra or a colorful sports bra. So if anyone's messaging me on
21:26
Instagram saying, oh link to sports brads, I'm legit just wearing two sports
21:30
bras and I'm saving money by not buying a brand new sports bra. So
21:34
I highly recommend changing up your active wear by doubling up your sports bra.
21:38
I think it's super cute, it's super trendy right now, and I love
21:41
pairing it with different colors. You could totally just do different combos and all
21:45
that. And I've been in my pink era lately, I've been wearing so
21:48
much pink, and I'm loving it enough with the sad Beije era, I
21:52
love Beije in my home, not gonna lie, but I have been trying
21:55
to branch out and try different colors out, and I feel like pink has
21:59
been my go to color right now as well as anything yellow. I freaking
22:04
love yellow on my skin. I feel like yellow is a super popular color
22:07
right now, and it's going to be definitely big for the summertime too,
22:11
But anything yellow or pink has been my favor lately. Okay, Next is
22:15
some beauty and clothing faves. One thing that I've been wearing constantly just because
22:22
I'm the kind of girl that loves a slip on shoe whenever I'm running out
22:25
the door. So in the fall, I usually would wear my Tasmin ug
22:29
slippers, and then in the winter I'd wear my ugs just because they're both
22:33
very easy to slip on. But last summer I purchased the Birkenstock slip ons.
22:38
You know those clogs. I used to wear those in high school.
22:41
I can't believe I am wearing them again, like ten years later, but
22:45
I love them still to this day. They are literally my favorite thing,
22:48
and I got mine when Zach and I were actually in Europe. We both
22:52
got a pair. We got a matching pair of slip on shoes, which
22:56
is kind of funny. He loves his and I wear mine all the time
22:57
as well. But I have just been wearing them constantly. It's just nice
23:03
to slip on a shoe versus like tying up my runners or anything like that.
23:07
So that has been like my go to thing whenever I'm running out to
23:10
the spinco class or groceries or anything like that. Just easy slip on shoes
23:12
to have for the spring and summer season. I see that Crocs are making
23:17
a comeback, which what do you guys think about that. I don't know
23:21
how I feel about the platform Crocs. I am very indecisive about that.
23:25
I don't think I will ever purchase a pair of Crocs ever. Again,
23:27
I did own a pair of Crocs back in high school. But that is
23:30
something that I don't know if I could get back into. Like it's definitely
23:34
a popular thing right now, but I don't know if I can get back
23:37
into that. Moving on to some makeup products, say Beauty sent me a
23:41
bunch of their makeup products recently, and wow, I've never tried Save Beauty's
23:47
makeup products before. This was actually the first time of me trying their products,
23:49
and it is so good. They recently just came out with a concealer
23:53
and it's so lightweight. It gives so much coverage and it's super hydrating as
23:57
well, which is nice because I really dry skin. Another thing I love
24:02
is their lip glosses. If you have been wanting the Road lip tints,
24:07
you know, how Road had, you know, like four or five different
24:10
shades, and I think they're like constantly sold out. I would honestly say
24:14
the same beauty colors are very similar and they're so so good. My favorite
24:19
tint right now is the Bounce, That's what the shade's called. It's like
24:23
a very like neutral brown lip gloss. It's so good. And their skin
24:29
tints. They also have skin tints which are really lightweight, which is nice
24:32
because I like to just wear very neutral makeup during the day. I don't
24:34
really like to wear foundations, so having a skin tint, I find is
24:37
huge. Specifically during the summer season too. I feel like mixing a skin
24:41
tint in sunscreen is like elite for the summer season, so yeah, they're
24:47
skin tints, so so great as well. Again, I'm going to link
24:49
all these products that way you guys can see them in person when I'm talking
24:55
about them. And then another thing I just recently bought is a trench for
25:00
my trip to London. I actually got it from a Ritzia and she is
25:03
stunning. It is super light weight. I find trench coats are so stunning
25:08
with any kind of outfit, whether you're wearing a skirt or jeans or even
25:12
a sweat set. I feel like having a trench coat just makes your outfit
25:15
look ten times more put together. And you could wear a trench coat throughout
25:18
the summer season as well. I mean, let's be honest, you get
25:22
super cold at nights sometimes and chili in the morning, so just throwing on
25:26
a trench coat or even during the gloomier days, the rainy days, I
25:29
feel like a trench coat is like a must have coat to have in your
25:33
staples. And that's actually something I don't own is a nice beige trench coat,
25:37
so that I'm super excited about that I'm gonna be wearing in London.
25:40
I just literally got it a few days ago when I went to Ritzia and
25:44
did a bit of shopping there. Another good skin tint that actually just came
25:47
out, and it's with more of an affordable brand is ELF. They have
25:51
different shades and it's not really a skin tint actually, it's more of a
25:55
like it's something that you enhance your skin with. It's like the drunk Elephant
25:59
draw. So Elf, I guess came out with a dupe with that,
26:03
and it's actually really really good if you mix that with your sunscreen or your
26:07
moisturizer and just put all of your face. So I guess technically it is
26:11
a skin tint, but like the Same Beauty one, you don't have to
26:15
mix out with anything. You could literally just put on your face. I
26:17
believe there's actually sunscreen in the Same Beauty one, which is nice like SBF
26:21
thirty, whereas the ELF one it doesn't have that, but if you add
26:23
it to a moisturizer, it will look like a skin tint. So that's
26:27
a new product that I've been loving as well. I also recently purchased this
26:30
from Amazon. Instead of using like makeup base wipes or like a towel on
26:37
my face, I've been using these clean Skin Club Face wipes, which are
26:41
disposable towels almost They have a fifty pack that I think is like twenty bucks
26:48
off Amazon, and they are so good for your skin. Guys, Like,
26:52
I feel like they're not rough. I feel like it gets all my
26:53
makeup off in one shot, and I don't know, they're just really really
26:57
good. I feel like my skin has been breaking out or reacting as much,
27:02
and I honestly think it's because of these towels. And yeah, they're
27:04
super affordable. They're on Amazon and usually like the fifty last me about two
27:10
months and then I restock, so it is honestly worth the purchase, of
27:14
my opinion, and I just feel like my skin has not been breaking out
27:18
as much since I started to use them. So those are some of my
27:22
wellness beauty recipe ritual faves from April so far. Let me know if you
27:26
guys like these kind of episodes. These are one of my favorites. But
27:30
I guess this is also kind of like a spring favorites too, because I
27:33
feel like some of these things I also started to incorporate in March during the
27:36
spring season. But yeah, now going into May, we're getting close to
27:40
summers, so freaking excited, and I know you guys are gonna be excited
27:44
