Recent Amazon Finds I️’m Loving

Since we’ve been spending a lot more time at home, I️’ve been relying more heavily on Amazon (if that’s even possible!) for most of my non-grocery purchases. I️ have also been trying to do a better job of keeping the house clean, including some of the easily forgotten tasks…like cleaning the dishwasher. I️ thought I️’d share some of my recent favorite Amazon finds with you today!

Recent Home & Beauty Amazon Finds

Tyler Glamorous Wash

glamorous wash

I️’ve seen this all over the internet for several years now, but felt like it was a little pricey. Then, a favorite blogger of mine shared that she just uses a spoonful of this with her regular unscented detergent to get more bang for the buck. Sometimes our clothes don’t smell as fresh as I️’d like (probably my bad for forgetting to put them in the dryer for a day or two…oops), so I️ finally ordered a bottle of Glamorous Wash to try for myself. It is VERY strong-scented, so you definitely only need a spoonful to get the job done! I️’ve been using it for over a week now and love how great all of our clothes and linens smell.

Coffee Pot Cleaner + Descaler

I️ try to clean our Ninja Coffee Bar regularly, but sometimes it slips my mind and I️ don’t think about it until the orange light comes on letting me know it’s due for a cleaning. I️ couldn’t find the kind I️ used in the past, but I️ tried this cleaner a few weeks ago and I️’m happy to report that it worked so well! I️ will definitely buy this brand again next time.

Affresh Dishwasher Cleaner

Cleaning the dishwasher is another one of those tasks that I️ always forget to tackle. I️ love our KitchenAid dishwasher and it cleans well, but for some reason, it seems to get dirtier than our past dishwashers. We’ve been better about cleaning the filters regularly and I️ tried the Affresh Cleaning Discs this time to see if it would clean better than another kind I️’ve used in the past. I️ was impressed by how much better the dishwasher looked after using the cleaning discs and will be using them regularly to maintain it! TIP: our dishwasher had a lot of build-up from previous failed attempts at cleaning it. I️ used an old dish brush and Barkeeper’s Friend to scrub away most of this grime from these spots (mostly by the edges and on the door).

The Best Dishwasher Cleaning Hack You Need to Know

Garnier Micellar Cleansing Water

Changing gears a bit, let’s talk about skincare! I️ have been using a skincare regimen for a while, but still get random breakouts. I️’ve noticed they’ve worsened since I️’ve been taking morning walks and working out at home, as I️ rarely wash my face right afterward and my pores are probably getting clogged. I️’ve heard great things about micellar water for double cleansing, so I️ ordered this bottle for only $7 and use it after I️ wash my face to ensure I️’m removing any residue. I️ love how clean my skin feels so far and I️ hope that it will be the solution for these pesky breakouts!

Orgain Collagen Peptides

I️’ve sung the praises of collagen powder for several years now, but I️ ran out a few months ago and forgot to reorder. I️ felt like my skin was looking dull and my joints were aching more after a workout, so I️ finally remembered to order more last month. I️ put a scoop in my coffee each morning and it dissolves perfectly. I️ love that it also a decent amount of protein since I️’m always looking for ways to hit my macro goals.

As you can see, my Amazon finds are a pretty mixed bag – I️ like to check there first to see if the prices are better and often, they are! It also seems like Amazon has resumed its typical Prime shipping schedule and we get our packages in 1-2 days. What are your favorite Amazon finds lately?

Prolon Day 3 | The day started off really good — Prolon Day 3 | The day started off really good — I felt very clear-minded and awake this AM 🥳 Truly, I was nervous because today was a very low-cal day and I wasn’t sure how I’d feel 😅 I did grab a plain iced espresso because my energy was depleting super quickly and that def helped 👌🏼 After lunch, though, I started to hate depriving myself of real food and disliked that I couldn’t push myself in my workouts like I usually do 😒 After dealing with three kids who clearly woke up on the wrong side of the bed 😆, slicing my hand open with a knife and being cranky and irritable because I’ve been hangry for 3 days, I caved. And sorry, not sorry ✌🏼 I just wanted a dang salad and some protein so I can lift heavy things 💪🏼 Moral of the story, listen to your body and what it needs. And maybe try a 1-2 day cleanse/fast because that’s about all mine could handle 🤪

@prolonfmd Day Two | Overall an easier day than ye @prolonfmd Day Two | Overall an easier day than yesterday 👌🏼 Time went by faster and I didn’t have any nausea from being hungry…I looked forward to and savored all of today’s meals — the black bean soup for dinner was actually really good (esp with a little cumin + paprika!) 🙌🏼 I did @pure_barre this AM and then a @onepeloton walk this afternoon…keeping it light because of how little I’m consuming this week 😅 Not gonna lie, nervous for day 3 because it’s the lightest day of food and I’m already pretty hangry in general 🤣 Interestingly, I’ve felt pretty amazing today other than just craving a real meal 👌🏼 Btw, was so hungry for dinner that I forgot to share it in the reel 🤦🏼‍♀️

@prolonfmd Day One | The struggle is real 😅 I’ve done cleanses in the past so I’m no stranger to this…but coming off a few weeks of holiday drinks and some indulgences, today was no easy feat 🤣 My energy definitely ebbed and flowed throughout the day, and felt weak and nauseated every now and then from lack of calories and protein 🙈 It was the longest day ever, but I cleaned, vacuumed, mopped and then did a @onepeloton walk & yoga class and still had time left over (side note, why doesn’t every day feel this long?! 😆). Actually feeling good this evening after having a sparkling water ‘mocktail’, energized and clear-minded 👌🏼

2022 — what a year ✨ It challenged me in so ma 2022 — what a year ✨ It challenged me in so many ways, but I also thrived in many ways. Continuing to grow a business with a husband, three kids, a dog and two cats is not a simple feat but here we are 😏 We adventured a LOT this year - from Girl Scout adventures to family vacations to HHI, the mountains, OBX and more, we had plenty of fun and made lots of memories 😘 The best part of this year was just really allowing myself to live in the moment and not allow stress to overtake me as I’ve allowed it in the past 😅 I also rediscovered my love of running thanks to my @onepeloton Tread and hit big goals at @purebarre_highlandcreek 💪🏼 Here’s to living more in the present, accomplishing bigger goals and dreams and having an amazing 2023 🥂
