NOVEMBER 2018 FAVORITES

Yet another month has gone by, so now it is time again for another monthly favorites blog. Keep reading to find out more about the products, services, or entertainment I've loved this past month!

BEAUTY PRODUCTS

I always like to try a new beauty product or two each month to see if I like something more than I like the product I'm already using.

E.L.F. LIP EXFOLIATOR, SWEET CHERRY | $3

It's starting to get a little colder where I live, and you know what that means: my lips are SUFFERING! 

Luckily, my lips aren't chapped, they're just dry. I decided to give the lip exfoliator from e.l.f. a try and I ended up liking it. At first, I thought it seemed really creamy, but that was just the top layer coating. After a few rubs on your lips, you will get to the exfoliator. I thought it was perfect for lips (not to coarse but not to fine either) and it smelled great.

I loved the scent as well, but I didn't see any other ones at Target when I purchased it. But, you can visit the e.l.f. website to 

DOVE BODY WASH | $8.94

I recently tried some Dove body wash and I loved it. It is really great for dry skin, which I suffer from immensely. 

The body wash is also sulfate free. I also like that it has a cleaner scent that is somewhat neutral so that I can use my Bath and Body Works lotions without having contrasting scents!

So, if you're looking for a moisturizing body wash, I think you should try this Dove body wash. I use my body wash with that purple scrubby. 

ENTERTAINMENT

Here are a few things in the entertainment category that I've loved this month:

NOBODY'S FOOL

Ever since I saw her in Girl's Trip, I've loved Tiffany Haddish. So, when I saw that she would be in Nobody's Fool, I decided that I wanted to see it.

The storyline follows Danika, a businesswoman who is dating a man she has never met. Her sister, who was recently let out of jail, decides that Danika is being catfished and invites Neiv and Max from the show by the same name to come and investigate. But, Danika tells them they are wrong. The story takes several turns and I know you will love it as much as I did.

DAZ GAMES

As for the YouTube channel I've loved most this month, that would have to be Daz games. I've always been a huge fan of Daz, but I've gotten into watching him more lately. He does use some language, so be advised before watching this with younger children. He's really funny and I love watching him play horror games because of his reactions. 

FOOD

Thanksgiving is all about the food. Here is what I loved this month:

TURKEY, DUH!

Oh my goodness. I've had so much turkey this month. It all started Nov. 19 when my job had a free turkey dinner for faculty and staff and their families. It was delicious. 

Then, of course, there was the meals with our families, which was great as always. Turkey is so good, but it makes you so tired!!

NON-VISIBLE THINGS

Not everything that I loved this month was visible, so I wanted to share some of the things that have helped me this month that aren't tangible. 

ORGANIZATION

Whenever I start to feel stressed or as if there is too much going on, I like to start organizing. Not only does it take my mind off of the stress, but it also helps me put everything in its place so that it looks nice and I know where it is. My favorite places to organize are my work office and my home office. These are probably the most stressful places, so it is good to calm them with organization.

GOD'S PRESENCE 

I don't talk about this too often because I strongly believe that we are now in a place where God is moving and working during each church service. That's not to say that I never felt anything in our old church, but this is something different. I come out of each service feeling emptied of my woes and feeling God so strong in my heart. I'm so thankful for that!

TIME TO JUST BREATHE

November was an insanely busy and stressful month for me. We remodeled and cleaned my mom and grandma's rooms and I had a huge project that I only had about two weeks to work on. I'm thankful that everything went off without a hitch, but I'm even more thankful for the time I had following the project where I could just relax and take it easy. If I was going full-speed like that all of the time, I don't know what I'd do.

CONCLUSION

As I said, it was a busy and stressful month, so that's really all that I have for you for this month's favorites blog. Since December is next and I'm sure I'll be getting some new presents, I am sure the monthly favorites blog will be much longer.

Don't forget that blogmas is coming and I'm participating. I'm also doing a Tweetmas tag in December. You can find details about that on my Twitter feed. I hope you'll check it out!
