Head on over, join us on Facebook. We'd love to have you there as well and let's jump in to my August favorites. Always we're going to start with WW food favorites and as always, I'm going to start with a couple of items that need to make it back into my refrigerator or freezer. Tis the season for pumpkin spice. This is the international delight. Pumpkin spice coffee creamer, it's almost gone. This is the full sugar, full fat, full everything coffee creamer. To be honest with you, I'm not always the biggest fan of international delight but this pumpkin pie spice is so good. This is one of the best coffee creamers I've ever had. It's spicy, it's pumpkin-y, I'm obsessed with this. I'm definitely, definitely going to be repurchasing this and I can't wait for all of the other seasonal flavors but this one you can find right now if you love pumpkin spice as much as I do. The other favorite item comes in the freezer section. These are the yummy spoonfuls, organics for kids, chicken sweet potato bites. I know they're for kids. I know they're for kids but I love them. They're delicious. They have two bites for 90 calories. This is the size of them so they are really good sized. I like to put these in a wrap with some laughing cow cheese. It's a good way to get in protein, vegetables and again you can have two of them for the points here on the screen and 90 calories. They have really good ingredients, all organic. I just found these in the frozen food section at my local Walmart. Next up are these unreal dark chocolate coconut minis. I bought these at my last stock of Paulette Costco. I have been obsessed with these. They are so good. They are 70 calories per bite. I'll put the points here on the screen for you. This is the size of them so I mean they're not huge but they are just like a mounds bar but with much, much better ingredients. I mean there's a very limited ingredient list. Organic, coconut, organic. This is obviously dark chocolate, liqueur, cane sugar, cocoa butter, and vanilla. That's it. So nothing artificial in these. Much better ingredients than a mounds bar. Much less calories and points and they're so good. They are delicious. If you love coconut, chocolate, mounds, you are absolutely going to love these. And again, I bought mine at Costco. I have also ordered these from the Thrive Market. They tend to have the best price. So I'll link the Thrive Market down below for you but yeah, get your hands on these. They're delicious. Next up are some soups. These are the Amy's brand of organic soups. This particular one is split pea but I love all of her soups. As we move into the colder weather, fall weather, I'm here for soup. So I've been picking these up here and there and having these is a quick and easy lunch or dinner. And the ingredients in here are so good. They are all organic ingredients. They're not much more expensive than traditional soup. This particular one is 120 calories per serving or you can have the entire can for 200 calories and technically a serving is the entire can. They're low in points. They have excellent ingredients. They're filling, they're delicious. Really loving the Amy's brand of soup. Next up is a new product from Verb Energy. You guys know how much I love the Verb Energy bars. I eat them all the time. But these are the Verb Energizing Drink Mixes. This particular flavor is pina colada. I also have their variety pack and this one has raspberry lemon, mango tangerine and cherry lime but they just recently released the pina colada. These are amazing. If you love coconut, tropical vibes, pina colada, you will love these. It says that it is made with real fruit powders and natural sweeteners like allulose. And allulose is derived from figs and raisins so it's a very natural sweetener. There is some stevia for amazing flavor and then we add an organic green tea with L-theanine and collagen to give you feel good, complete energy. So if you're someone that likes to have a little energy supplement pre-workout, post-workout during the day in the morning, the afternoon, whenever you need a little bit of energy but you don't wanna drink those terrible for you energy drinks, these are amazing. They have really good ingredients. They taste really, really delicious. This particular flavor right now is on sale for $14.99. I actually have it pulled up right here. You get this bag, there's 12 pina colada sticks in it for $14.99. Normally these are $19.99 so it's a $5 saving. So I'll link them down below. That same link that I'm putting for these pina colada drink mixes will also get you the Verb Energy starter pack of bars for only $10. So highly recommend the bars, highly recommend the drink mixes and like I said, they're much cleaner, much better for you. They also contain five grams of collagen and 65 milligrams of caffeine from green tea, naturally derived which is the same amount that's in a shot of espresso so highly recommend. Next up is a cracker that I have been loving. I recently rediscovered Mary's Gone crackers. I actually used to buy these all the time but it's been a hot minute since I bought these and I actually added these to my Thrive Market order and this is my second box. I've already been through an entire box. These crackers are so good. This is the Super Seed Everything Cracker. You get 12 crackers for 150 calories. The points here on the screen, the ingredients are perfection. Brown rice, quinoa, pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds, flax seeds, sesame seeds, poppy seed, onion, garlic, salt. All of which are organic. So nice, clean, unprocessed cracker, they're delicious. I will tell you my favorite way to eat these is to spread a wedge or two of laughing cow cheese over the 12 crackers that are in a serving. So good. Such a satisfying snack. The crunch, the cheese, it's amazing. So highly recommend and again, I find the best price for these to be on the Thrive Market. Of course, I'll link Thrive down below if you're not already a member but they have all the different flavors with this everything one chef's kiss. Next up is from Fiber Gourmet, you know, the love of my life pasta. They also make a fiber gourmet macaroni and cheese. Troy and I have been obsessed with this. You can have an entire serving for 140 calories versus 290 in regular mac and cheese. It also contains 25 grams of fiber versus two grams of fiber, 25 net carbs versus 47 and it has eight grams of protein. This macaroni and cheese is better than Kraft. It is so good. I don't know what they do to this macaroni and cheese but it is absolutely delicious. I love that there's your entire day's worth of fiber, 25 grams, there's also eight grams of protein. I am stocking up on this. I just placed a huge fiber gourmet pasta order. I usually buy a case worth every few months as I go through it from Natrition and this time I added a few bags of the macaroni and cheese and this is my last bag. So I feel like I just wanna hop onto Natrition and order some more. So good if you love mac and cheese but you wanna save points, calories, I mean the calories and the points are less than half of traditional macaroni and cheese. Highly recommend and while you're there make sure you're ordering the fiber gourmet pasta. Natrition has all the shapes and they're usually in stock so I'll link them down below but this macaroni and cheese so good. Next are these skinny dipped baking bits. You guys saw that I hauled these in a Walmart grocery haul not too long ago and I have repurchased this. This is a brand new second bag. I love these. I wanted to try these out for a while before I put them in a favorites or reviewed them for you but these are from the brand Skinny Dipped. These are their baking bits. Semi sweet chocolate, no stevia, no sugar alcohols and non-GMO. Now these are made with allulose again that naturally derived sweetener but there is actual sugar in here as well. So one tablespoon or 14 grams is 70 calories or three points. It's well worth it to me. These taste like plain regular chocolate chips. So if you're not a fan of lilies because of the stevia you will love these. They actually taste just like a regular chocolate chip but they're less points and calories. I love them. Love, love, love them. I hope that they come out with other flavors and again I found these at Walmart. And my last food favorite is another drink mix. This is from the brand Everly. They're zero sugar, all natural and if you struggle getting your water in because you just don't like plain boring water this is a great way to flavor your water but more naturally than those little water enhancer packets. They're sugar-free, vegan, gluten-free, keto, natural and they also contain electrolytes. I have three flavors here. I have the pomegranate berry which is absolutely delicious. It has a hundred milligrams of electrolytes, zero calories. And then I also have the peach mango which I really like that has 120 milligrams of electrolytes and this one is so good. This is the fruit punch and this is a belly health version. It has 150 milligrams of hydrating electrolytes and two billion probiotics. So this is a great probiotic supplement for good gut health. I also love these because they come in these resealable pouches. There's 20 to 30 servings per pouch. You just simply add them to water, mix it up and enjoy. So, so good. You're getting electrolytes, you're getting hydration. The belly health one is so amazing with the probiotics and they taste really, really good. And you can feel good that you're drinking a product that isn't full of a bunch of chemicals like those little water enhancer sticks. So I'm loving these, I will repurchase these. You can buy these off of the Everly website. I do have a discount for you guys so I'll go ahead and put that discount down below but I am loving these and it's making drinking my water a lot easier. So those are all of my August WW food favorites. I do have three home favorites that I wanna share with you guys. I'm really excited about these three things I've been loving them. First up is this seventh generation granite and stone countertop cleaner. It's made with 100% essential oils and it is plant based. I have quartz counters in my kitchen. I have granite counters in my bathroom and you have to be really careful what you clean them with. This cleaner is amazing. Now it isn't an antibacterial cleaner. It's more of just a surface cleaner but it's 0% synthetic fragrances and dyes. It works really well on stone countertop. So I've really been liking this. I bought this off of Grove Collaborative. I am a member. I subscribe to Grove. I get boxes every month. I'll link Grove for you. They do have a free Mrs. Meyers gift set when you join and I don't know, I'm assuming you can probably get this at Target too because I know that they sell seventh generation but if you have granite or stone countertops, I mean, it's almost gone. You can see how much I love this cleaner. Next up is this three pack of trivets. You can see how nice and thin these are. They're more of like a braided material. I bought these on Amazon because I was tired of big clunky trivets that take up a lot of room in my cupboards and my drawers. So I was on the hunt for a thin trivet that would prevent my countertops from cracking or just putting hot items on my counters and I'm loving these. In fact, I just ordered a second set of three. They are so nice. I mean, all three of them stacked together are as thick as one traditional trivet. They were super affordable and if you're looking for a space saver, these are great. And lastly are these plus smart small home laundry bags. I have one already out that I just washed some laundry in but these are little zip up mesh bags that you can throw items in your washer. So for me, what I like to do is throw my bras in these types of bags rather than them tumbling around in the washer and dryer. I find that they last longer if they're put in a type of a laundry bag. Also, I throw my makeup sponges, my makeup brushes. I mean, you name it, you can pretty much wash anything in these bags. I did purchase this three pack off of Amazon. It was really affordable. So it zips up into this kind of rounded little bag and then you just throw it in your washer. Love these. Love, love, love these. I may actually order a second pack. Oh, it smells good from my laundry. So I love these. Highly recommend if you're looking for a laundry safe laundry bag. So we're going to go ahead and round out August favorites with my beauty favorites. I have makeup, skincare and kind of a self care hair product to share with you. So let's go ahead and start with that one. So this is from the brand, The Hunk Up. And this is actually called the Bush Master Pro. It says the best below the waist groomer. But hear me out on this. My husband loves this to trim up the hair on the back of his neck to trim up his goatee. And you can also use this below the belt if you want to do some trimming up there. This is just such a fantastic trimmer. Troy goes through hair trimmers quite regularly. I don't know what he does, but he seems to go through them pretty regularly. And he is absolutely loving this one. It's affordable. It works really, really well. Let me show it to you. So this is what the actual trimmer looks like. So again, you can use it for cutting any type of hair. It also comes with three different blade covers to adjust the height of the hair. And then of course, the charging device. So no batteries required. It's chargeable. But he has absolutely been loving this. He says the quality is out of this world. It works really well. It doesn't tear or tug at your hair. And I know that it can be used for men, but it can also be used for us women who kind of clean up in that area. It's fantastic. And like I said, it's super affordable. It's the Hunk Up brand and it's the Bushmaster Pro. I will link it down below for you. I'm going to see where I can find the best price. Or if I can even get a discount somewhere, I'll link everything down below. But if you're in the market, amazing. I have a couple of skincare products that I want to share with you that I've been loving. First up is from the brand Pure Lease. This is their Pineapple Bright Gel Cream. This is a moisturizer, but what I really like about this moisturizer is not only does it add brightness to your face, but it is a little tacky to the touch. So I've been using this as my morning moisturizer right before I put on my makeup because it does have that little bit of tackiness. I feel like my makeup along with primer will stay all day long, even through a workout, which is incredible. I've really, really been loving this. I received this in a subscription box. I will be repurchasing this. It is so good. So if you're interested in a tacky type of moisturizer, pre-makeup application, this one is fantastic. I've also been loving this Juice Beauty Bamboo Poor Refining Facial Mask. So as part of my challenge group, my summer challenge on my Facebook group, we did August's self-care. So I committed to a face mask every day in the month of August. This one I love. I'll apply this while I'm in the shower, let it sit on my skin, rinse it off at the end of my shower, and it leaves my skin feeling really hydrated, bright. It diffuses my pores and it also just cleans all the gunk off of my skin. I really, really, really like this. I will definitely buy the full size of this. This is a sample that I also received in a subscription box. I am so far super impressed with Juice Beauty. I can't wait to try more of their products. So makeup products I've been loving is Soul Body. This is from the brand ColourPop. This is their cream bronzer. You guys, not only does it smell amazing, this component is huge. There's a lot of product in here. I have the shade Medium. This is the best, the best cream bronzer I have ever used. What I love about cream products is as I get older, powder products often show texture. Powder bronzers, powder blushes, powder highlighters, they show texture. So I've been really leaning on cream products and this bronzer is fantastic. You can use this on your face, on your body. It's the bronzer that I have on today. A little of this goes a long way so this huge, huge container is going to last forever. It does have that nice plastic cover for safety. I love this. I bought this off the ColourPop website and I did do a full face of ColourPop products on my beauty channel. I'll link that video down below. If you're not on my beauty channel, what are you waiting for? It's super fun over there. But I'm loving this soul body bronzer. If you're in the market for a cream bronzer that's affordable, definitely pick this one up. Next is from the brand Tarte. This is their Tartist liner. This has been my go-to black liner. What I like about this is it's dual-ended. One end is a liquid liner and the other end is a cold pencil liner. So I've been really liking this. I use the liquid to do my wing and then I use the pencil liner to line my lid and also do my waterline. It is tart, so it's not super affordable but it's not high-end either and it works really well. If you like having both a liquid and a cold liner, this one is really, really good and for the price, you're getting two different types of liners. So I think it's overall a really good value and it works really well. It doesn't bleed, it doesn't smudge, love. I've also been loving this NYX matte lip color. This is indie color London. This is actually the color that I have on my lips today. I love this. I'm not a huge matte lipstick or liquid lip person. I don't like that really dry feeling on your lips. So I just add some gloss like I did today but this is a fantastic matte lip color. It's very nude, it goes with everything. I prefer to do a more dramatic eye look and a more neutral or nude lip. So I have been reaching for this one a lot. It's actually almost gone. It's super, super, super affordable. It's creamy, it's delicious, love it. The next product is also from ColourPop. This is their Act Natural mascara. This, you guys, is the best mascara I've ever used in my entire life. It adds volume, it adds link, it thickens your lashes. And you know I am a lash girl through and through but whenever I don't wear lashes, this is the only mascara I reach for because it does such a fantastic job of doing everything you'd ever want for your lashes. It's affordable. I love this. It comes in black, it comes in brown. I actually just repurchased a second tube. Really, truly, if you want the perfect mascara, this one from ColourPop, their Act Natural defining mascara is a million out of 10. Next up is one of my holy grail products and this is the Tula Eye Brightener. I use this every single day. It's kind of an orangey color. You can tell that it has some brightness. I love this for two reasons. Number one, it adds hydration under my aging, crepey, fine line, wrinkly under eyes and it also brightens them up. I don't have a lot of dark circles but I definitely have a little bit of darkness, hyperpigmentation under my eye and this not only covers that up, adds brightness but it also adds the hydration that I need so when I apply concealer, it doesn't become all cakey and creasy and crusty and horrible within a matter of minutes. So I love this. Purchased this in BoxyCharm Popup. I actually just bought two more of these. That's how much I love this. I've actually been enjoying a lot of the Tula Skincare products so stay tuned for further reviews on my beauty channel, probably more in my favorites but if you have mature under eyes, this is a complete game changer. And of course we have to end out my beauty favorites with my favorite eyeshadow palette of the month and this is the BH Cosmetics Avocado Toast Palette. I love BH Cosmetics. I love this palette. I love this color story. It comes with a mirror and look at how stunning this palette is. There's neutrals, there's colors. There are so many amazing looks you can create with this. You can stick more with the pinky neutral shades. You can do an all green look. You can do this stunning and I mean stunning kind of teal blue look at the bottom. I love this palette. I've been reaching for this palette a lot. It is super, super affordable. Sometimes you can even find it on sale. I love it. I love, love, love this palette. It's a 16 pan palette. I wanna say it's like $18, super affordable if you love a good quality matte and shimmer and you like a neutral color story with a pop of color, get the Avocado Toast. You'll probably be reaching for it as much as I do. On my eyes today, I'm actually wearing the Colourpop California Love Palette, another one of my favorites for neutral. I'll link this one down below for you guys as well but that is going to round out my August favorites. We made it. There were a lot of them. I could have even had more but I'm saving them for September but definitely, definitely check out the description box down below to pick up any of the products that I shared with you today. You'll also find my breakfast recipe ebook. Highly recommend you guys are loving that. It's only $15 for 15 breakfast recipes, nutrition, coaching, links, discounts to all my other favorite things and don't forget to come and join us over on Facebook. Thank you so much for watching. Happy September. Happy Fall, y'all. My favorite time of the year and I'll see you in my next video. Bye.
