Hi friends! Happy Friday! What\u2019s going on this weekend? P has a soccer game, we\u2019re meeting friends for dinner, and I\u2019m making a baby meal for a friend with newborn twins. I hope you have a lovely weekend ahead! Read on for a lil giveaway at the end of this post, too. \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

This week was a good one. They all seem to go by so quickly lately that I need to remind myself to sloooowwww down. I feel like I\u2019m going to blink and it\u2019s going to be Valentine\u2019s Day.<\/p>\n

If you\u2019re feeling like everything is happening earlier in the year and way too quickly, take some time to plan out things that purposefully make you slow down.<\/strong> I\u2019m trying to do the same! Little things like Uno in the evening, walks as a family, reading a book (even though I\u2019m surrounded by laundry to fold), and sitting together for meals makes a huge difference.<\/a><\/p>\n

(Halloween decor is up! We didn\u2019t go too wild but we have Jack and Sally in the window, our usual pumpkin displays, and our little Halloween table)<\/p>\n

It\u2019s time for the weekly Friday Faves party! This is where I share some of my favorite finds from the week and around the web. I always love to hear about your faves, too, so please shout out something you\u2019re loving in the comments section below!<\/p>\n

Fashion + beauty:<\/h3>\n

Beautycounter holiday is heeeeere! SO much great stuff! If you\u2019re shopping for holiday gifts, I would order soon because some of our top sets tend to sell out. It\u2019s hard to get into the holiday shopping mindset – I\u2019m still in a tank top over here! – but I\u2019m also trying to get as much shopping done as early as possible.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

Here are some of my favorite BC holiday picks:<\/h4>\n

Mini Beyond Gloss vault.<\/a> LOVE these for stocking stuffers! I also break sets apart to give to Liv\u2019s friends over the holidays. I feel much better giving the kiddos makeup with safer ingredients and love these for myself, too. They\u2019re not sticky and have the perfect glossy shine.<\/p>\n

Best in Clean Heroes.<\/a> If you\u2019ve been wanting to try Beautycounter, this is such a great intro to our bestsellers. You\u2019re able to try out smaller sizes of our hero products at a bundled discount. This is another great one to break apart for stocking stuffers.<\/p>\n

Multi Masker set.<\/a> You can try out our extremely popular charcoal mask and our new AHA mask, which has bamboo exfoliants, a bouncy texture, and makes skin feel smooth and amazing. If you\u2019re looking to up your mask game, this is it.<\/p>\n

Good Scents Hand Cream Trio.<\/a>\u00a0This is one of my all-time fave holiday products! I like to stash these in my purse and the car for dry winter hands. They smell lovely, too.<\/p>\n

Essentials Eye Palette.<\/a> SO many gorgeous neutrals for fall, and they use responsibly-sourced mica for shimmer.<\/p>\n

Read, watch, listen:<\/h3>\n

THIS VERSION of one of my all-time fave Broadway songs.<\/a><\/p>\n

What has surprised me most about having preteens.<\/a> (Loved this post because Liv is almost a tween – I can\u2019t believe it- and I feel like it just keeps getting better and better.)<\/p>\n

Traveling tips.<\/a><\/p>\n

Are the carrots you\u2019re chasing worth the sacrifice?<\/a><\/p>\n

Definitely check out this week\u2019s podcast episode with the Pilot!<\/a><\/p>\n

Fitness, health, + good eats:<\/h3>\n

The best store-bought salad kits!<\/a> So many of our faves on this list, like the Dill Pickle, Everything but the Bagel, and Trader Joe\u2019s Vegan Ranch.<\/p>\n

LOVE this essential oil! I found it at Whole Foods and have been diffusing it all week. It smells just as lovely as a fall candle and has great ingredients.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

I\u2019m so pumped so many of you are joining me on the detox journey<\/a> starting on October 17!\u00a0Read the details here and if you know you\u2019re in, you can click here<\/a> and use FITNESSISTA20 for 20% off.
