I KNOW, I KNOW, it’s already March…but I just refuse to fall off the favorites bandwagon completely. We might be flying by, wind whipping our hair, holding on for dear life but WE ARE HERE, OKAY?! 😉 With spring right around the corner, it really feels fitting – SO much is starting fresh in this season. We’ve got a handful of new things on the calendar for both kids, so it feels a bit like we went from a slow hibernating winter to full-blown flourishing. Schedule AND hearts are feeling full. 🙂 By the time I finally press publish on this bad boy it’ll be high time to work on the next. Do you miss seeing other content here on the blog? I do.
Never will I ever use regular towels on my face again! There is an obscenely disgusting amount of bacteria that gathers on your regular towel, even when it’s left to try – and they hold onto dead skin cells, gross germs, viruses and the works. Once you know, you can’t un-know it…and it’s yucky. These the a #1-rated disposable face towel, made out of 100% biobased, USDA certified and dermatologist-approved fibers – they’re super absorbent but GENTLE, chemical free, 100% natural and unscented, great for sensitive skin, traveling, and just ensuring you’re not putting things ON your skin that you most definitely don’t want there. 😉
I just recently emptied and re-purchased, so I’ve been using nightly for a few months now and lovelovelove!
2.) Air Doctor (discount code: THRIVE)
Why yes, you have seen the Air Doctor as a favorite before…but this time, it’s with receipts. 😉 Below is a brand new filter next to what we took out after six months…omg.
Dude, this before and after is UNREAL (and also disgusting LOL). I must adequately express to you how wild this is, though, given the fact that we ALSO have a REALLY good HVAC filtration system in our house already. We almost didn’t even get an Air Doctor because J thought it’d be a waste – that it wouldn’t catch anything. Little did he know. 😉
This thing gets ALL THE THINGS. Dust, allergens, pollen, pet dander, mites, mold spores…even bacteria and viruses. In a lab test, it removed 99.97% of the live SARS-CoV-2 virus from the air in the test chamber…yup, kills COVID.
We take about 20,000 breaths a day. We spend about 90% of our time indoors. And the air we breathe indoors is about 100x MORE polluted than outdoor air.
Your wellness is always worth it.
If you put promo code THRIVE at checkout, you’ll get up to $300 off your Air Doctor unit AND a free 3-year warranty added on justbecause, along with a 30-day money back guarantee. Units go by square footage they cover.
Milky toners are having a moment and I am HERE for it! Winter wreaks absolute havoc on the skin, and toner can end up stripping your skin completely – this stuff has been a godsend for getting through the windiest winter we’ve seen here in a hot sec. It helps remove impurities, yes, but also hydrates – and it’s alcohol free, making it suitable for more sensitive skin, too.
It’s pH balanced to not disrupt your moisture barrier. It’s creamy, non-drying, and toning while also hydrating. Also formulated cleanly without any parabens, phthalates, or oils, and 100% cruelty-free.
Like Hailey Bieber’s viral glazing milk, but less than 1/3 the cost!
4.) Spanx AirEssentials set (discount code: ELGXSPANX)
I’ve never met an AirEssentials piece I didn’t lovelovelove. This line is just the dang butteriest, creamiest stuff that feels completely luxurious on your body – the most glam “sweats set” you’ll ever own, I swear!
They just look chic. My go-to travel set! Everyone touches it for the first time and goes WOW YES. I’m yet to find an acceptable dupe anywhere – feel is EVERYTHING with this line. It’s truly so light and airy-feeling while being breathable…and it’s STRETCHY.

I’ve been hooked on Mel’s podcast lately – this episode was BOMB. So, so good. I’ve listened and re-listened already. Add to your listening queue!
P.S. Are you caught up on THRIVE???
6.) Physicians Formula Butter Melt tinted lip conditioner
This was an instant yes for me. Granted, I lovelovelove a lot from Physicians Formula’s butter line…so this was just no exception! It’s immediately nourishing and buttery without being sticky on your lips.
I can wear it with a full face of makeup and it’s got enough color to look put together and pretty, but I can also throw on as a hydrating balm with nothing else on (like here below – just had on my skincare + some sunscreen) and it gives you a nice shiny look.
Great ingredients (murumuru butter, Cupuaçu butter, tucuma butter – all loaded with essential fatty acids and pro-vitamins that are known for softening, conditioning, + moisturizing), smooth application with a nice wand, and lasts well.
Clean, hypoallergenic, dermatologist-tested, + cruelty-free! I’m wearing shade Pink Paradise.
7.) Nuuds Bodysuits
This bodysuit has over 1,500 five-star reviews…it’s impressive, folks. And your girl is *picky* with bodysuits! This one was designed to not give you a fredgie (that’s “front wedgie” IYKYK 😉 ). It’s double-layered in the body for a smoothing “filter” effect and single-layered in your arms for comfortable movement.
I have multiple from this brand now and they all hit home. I’ll be getting a few more, too – total closet staples!
(My pink was a limited edition color, but you can stock up on basics for any season!)
8.) Costco Vuori dupe set
If you see the Kirkland’s brand sets on your next Costco run…add to cart! They feel IDENTICAL to Vuori but for a FRACTION of the cost! My Vuori joggers cost $98. This entire set was less than $30 total. I mean, come ON! It feels literally identical, and even the coloring in the drawstrings is the same…I was wearing my Vuori’s when I was in Costco buying these, so folks around me must’ve thought I was nuts freaking out over the fabric.
But you know me! 😉
I bought this game on a whim the day of my little Galentine’s get together last month. Wasn’t sure what to expect, and was a bit nervous since totally raunchy or weird games aren’t my group’s (or my) cup of tea…ha! But this was actually SO fun. There are totally PG questions (and some funkier ones in there, too), but they opened the door to so much fun further conversation and storytelling…we ended up going on so many tangents and learning so much more about each other while laughing SO MUCH. It was a blast!!!
10.) Raising Securely Attached Kids book
The night I picked up this book for the first time I got through about 50 pages…it’s great. Not fluffy. Actually helpful, practical information that I can realistically implement in our family unit. I’m not finished with it quiet yet (I’m always bopping through something “helpful” alongside my favorite fantasy books haha), but so far SO good!
