Happy Thursday! I hope you had a great week:) I kind took this week easy and didn’t rush to get 3 blog posts out like I normally do. But something I promised you is that I would share my top Amazon purchases! Originally I was going to only share 10 but couldn’t resist sharing a couple more favorites. So now we are at 12:)
Below you will find all the details about each item and my personal review! Let me know what you think in the comments below.
12. Amazon Fresh K-Cups
If I could drink 16 cups of coffee a day I totally would! But I do realize how bad it is for you so I try to stick with 2 cups a day:) That being said I go through a lot of K-Cups. I found out through Amazon you can order Amazonfresh k-cups in bulk (80 count)! You can also subscribe to get these delivered once a month or however frequently you need. It has been a life saver for those moments when I am running low and forgot to place an order.
I actually do like the coffee too! I wouldn’t say its the worlds greatest but when I need my fix of the smell of fresh coffee brewing in the morning, it does the trick. I add either coconut milk or almond milk to mine so it doesn’t taste bad at all. **I don’t drink coffee black so I can’t tell you what that tastes like. I hate the taste of any straight black coffee.
11. T-Bar Necklace Holder
I had been looking for a necklace holder for some time. I even contemplated buying a jewelry box but I love having things on display! It makes it so easy to know what you have and it helps with getting ready quickly in the morning. I found this acrylic T-Bar necklace holder and thought why not try something out. I didn’t want the small space that I keep my jewelry to feel cluttered so I love how the acrylic is clear. I haven’t had any issue with it and setting it up was really easy!
10. Roll Up Dish Drying Rack
Let’s talk about having little to no counter space! I was a first time buyer so I didn’t even consider the counter space when purchasing. But boy did I learn my lesson. The next home purchase will have a lot more counter space than this one.
A quick trick I figured out was this roll up over the sink drying racks! Personally I hate drying racks that take up counter space but didn’t want to put my dishes in the sick to dry. This drying rack has been a life savor and one of my favorite things when cleaning dishes:)
Also it easily rolls up so you can store it under your sink and not leave it out all the time! Making drying dishes easy and a lot less messy.
9. Hanging Shower Caddy
When purchasing this home there were a few things I knew needed upgrading, one being the bathrooms (my fiancé and I are currently renovating the guest bathroom). The showers are a little outdated and they don’t have any place to put shower/bath products like a shower niche. For the mean time I bought this hanging shower caddy thinking they probably wouldn’t last but honestly I have been very surprised!!
I haven’t experienced any rust on mine and I have had this in the shower since the summer last year. I also love that it has little compartments for everything such as razors, loofah’s, big shampoo bottles or soap bars. Besides the drying rack, I kind of think this is the most useful Amazon purchase!
8. Dermaplaning Facial Razors
I shared on Instagram stories my whole shaving my face experience but before the quarantine happened, I was planning on getting dermaplaning done professionally. Since the quarantine stopped that but gave me some time on my hands, I went on Amazon and ordered these little dermaplaning facial razors to try it out for myself. I was so shocked at how well they worked!
I highly recommend watching plenty of youtube videos before trying and then taking it very very slowly. You don’t want to start cutting yourself especially on your face!
7. Revlon Hair Dryer
I truly don’t know what life would be like without this handy dandy Revlon hair dryer/round brush thing all wrapped into one! When getting ready in the morning it has made my life so much easier, especially when I have to shower in the morning. It also stops me from applying to much heat to my hair. It blow dries your hair while giving you a blow out! I can’t recommend this hair tool enough. It has taken my hair time from 20 minutes down to about 10!
6. Travel Make Up Case
You have probably seen this make up travel case all over Instagram but if you haven’t then you need to know about! I actually go this about 2 years ago when I knew I was going to be traveling a lot. I wanted a place to store my make up that was organized. There was nothing worse to me than getting to my destination, opening up my suitcase, pulling my make up bag out and finding everything was messy.
My brushes had rubbed product everywhere, one of the products had opened, the beauty blender got foundation everything, this list could go on. I love that this was structured and it had compartments for organizing/finding anything I needed.
5. Travel Brush Holder
Now the travel case does come with a brush holder inside it but I saw this travel make up brush case on Amazon and thought why not. I love how it stores your brushes separate from everything else but also it turns into a cup that can hold your brushes in the hotel room. There is nothing worse than having my brushes spread out all over the bathroom countertops. This holder keeps them all together which makes get ready easy!
4. Ginger Jar Kitchen Hand Towels
I truly was not looking for hand towels at all and honestly didn’t need them haha. When they arrived, Jeremy’s response was “Do we need more hand towels?” Obviously no but I couldn’t pass up on these really sweet ginger jar inspired printed hand towels. They made my little ginger jar heart skip a beat! They also go with the rest of the house so I just had to have them:)
Looks like these exact ones might be sold out but the brand has a ton of other gorgeous spring/summer prints!
3. Bathtub Bamboo Caddy
Taking baths is my way of relaxing! There is just something so peaceful about laying in all the bubbles while reading a good book or catching up on your favorite tv-show. One of my most asked questions any time I share my bathroom is this bamboo bathtub cabby! I absolutely love it and have had it for many years. It has a stand for a book/ipad, a wine holder, a phone holder and adjustable legs so it fits most tubs. I was really impressed with the quality and how long it has lasted me!
2. Champion Cropped Sweatshirt
Before the quarantine happened, I maybe owned one pair of joggers. I was not prepared to say the least. Now I am fully stocked on all things jogger/sweatshirt sets! This was one of the first sets I bought when working from home. I had been wanting a cropped sweatshirt and then saw the Champion joggers that matched and decided to grab them both! I was shocked to see Champion on Amazon but so glad I did because of Prime shipping.
Sizing: Sweatshirt I got my regular size (small). The cropped sweatshirt is boxy. For the joggers I got my regular size (small). They were snug at first but stretch a little once you start wearing them!
1. TABLETOPICS Couples Edition
Last but no least, my favorite Amazon find! Jeremy and I were on a little game kick for a while. We got chess and played a couple times in the morning while drinking coffee. I found this thing called Tabletopics and loved that they had a couples edition! During this time of slowing down it has been nice to get to know Jeremy a little bit more. We have been dating each other for 6 years so I know him pretty well but you can always learn more in a relationship! One way we are doing that is through this game of questions. There are some that are deep and others that are more fun. We take turn asking the question and then the other person has to answer. A couple nights we sit out on the patio after dinner and read some off. I have been so pleasantly surprised at this question game from TableTopics!
