Five on Friday – 01.24.20

Nothing I don’t love about a short week at the office! Thanks to a holiday on Monday this week flew by. We are gearing up for our budget to start in February so I’m soaking up the last little month of business as usual.

February will also kick off dance competition season and highschool baseball season! Dillon’s senior year is quickly passing by and there are so many to do’s still on my list!!

But January…sweet January…it’s always a time to slow down a bity for me and I seem to always to more reflecting, more reading and am able to tackle a few organization projects to get me on the right track for a busy spring! Here are a few of the things I’m loving this week.

Shop Flawless in Five

The Beautycounter Flawless in Five event is going strong through January 27th and includes a free retractable foundation brush! I have personally used all products in this set aside from the mascara. You do have a few choices between tinted moisturizer and foundation, eyebrow pencil or brow gel and lengthening vs. volumizing mascara. There are also quite a few shades to choose from of blush, gloss and concealer. I shared a little blurb in the Beautycounter highlight on Instagram showing me using all products except the mascara and brow gel. I am obsessed with the concealer right now!

So, if you have been interested in starting to clean up your makeup drawer, this is a nice starter set as it is discounted 20% and as I mentioned you receive a free brush through the 27th.

Have you taken the Enneagram quiz yet or are you like what’s the Enneagram? Well, being the feeling person that I am, I am always obsessed with personality tests in general. They always seem to help me see myself in a different way and some are very helfpul in the work arena. I’ve been intrigued with the Enneagram for some time but was really, really fighting the number the test was tossing out as my top score.

Well, after resisting for some time I have finally come to embrace my number becuase for real, I am a two. I spent the long weekend listening to episodes of the Typology podcast where twos are discussed. Now I’ve ordered the book The Road Back to You and can’t wait to dive in!

I’d love to know your number if you have taken the quiz! Did you think it was fitting or were you skeptical?

Speaking of books, my friend Stephanie is a major reader and has started a new instagram, Let’s Chat Books. She is definitely an honest reviewer and it won’t take you long to figure out if you share the same genre. We have shared several favorite reads such as Novemer 9 and The Bright Side. My favorite way to find new books to read is from friends! So go give her a follow and tell her I sent you! She only lives two hours from me now and we have been trying so hard to get together for a real life meet up!

Recently I also shared the new makeup brush set I picked up on sale before Christmas along with the brush cleaner. I’m one of those disgusting people who cleans her brushes like once every three…or maybe six months. Time just goes so fast y’all! The cleaner really has made it at least a little more convenient to try and stay on top of the brushes.

Not my favorite are these red eyes! My eyes have been giving me a few fits and what I thought was my eyesight regressing from too much computer time turned out to be inflamation from dry eyes. Really hoping the eyedrops my doctor is recommending will get me back on track!

Lastly, can I just tell you how cute this girl is! She has really just turned into a young lady overnight and #alltheclothes are looking way too cute on her! I’m so jealous that she was able to wear a pair of wide legged crops because they look ridiculous on her momma! A local boutique has 50% off all of their AG jeans and so we stopped by last Friday night and she fell in love with this pair. If you love AG jeans and are true to size you should totally check out what they have left!

So that’s my five on Friday! What are you loving this week?
