Call it coastal grandma, call ithot sleeperseasonwhatever the reason, its changed my life.

I feel like Gwyneth Paltrow.

For the warmer months I dont like my heavycomforter, but I still need something more than just asheet.

Whatever was happening physiologically, it was the most peaceful Id felt in a long time.

But now theres a new player on the team: Goodles.

When a big ol box of Goodles arrived at my doorstep, I was thrilled to get cooking.

My favorite flavor so far is Mover and Shaker, inspired by cacio e pepe.

Once the shower gets hot, the steamer activates and the essential oils fill the entire bathroom.

I write a lot, so having ashy hands is one of my biggest pet peeves.

Bath and Body Works Ultimate Hydration Body Cream does just thatit provides my body with ultimate, lasting hydration.

This body cream is thicker than traditional lotions, having the texture of a hair cream.

It is not runny and instead maintains its form in your hand.

The thickness of this lotion really seals in moisture.

Upon utility, the lotion melts into your skin and does not feel heavy nor sticky to the touch.

I get very sweaty, which usually makes sunglasses slide down my nose.

Its the perfect shampoo to use when I have product buildup or an itchy scalp.

My natural hair is dyed and bleached, so this conditioner has really helped in preventing breakage.

These tampons are easy to use, especially for those who are newer to tampons.

Most importantly, it has the best absorbency to keep you from overflowing.

I also appreciate the size of the product.

Other tampons that Ive used are extremely small and do not feel secure.
