The ONE Stocking Stuffer You NEED This Year. | PLUS A GIVEAWAY

November 22, 2017 by Rachel 13 Comments

As a busy mom I often find myself doing my self-care routine on-the-go. I mean that quite literally. I’ve been known to keep my makeup bag in my purse so that I can do my makeup in the car, usually in the parking lot before going into work.

I know, I know… Lame, right? I mean, my makeup routine is this:

  1. Liquid Foundation.
  2. Blush Stick.
  3. Eyeliner.
  4. Mascara.
  5. Eyebrows filled in with pencil.
  6. And maybe a quick lip color that will dissipate in .02 seconds.

That’s it. It takes me all of 5 minutes, while my kids are finishing their breakfasts in the backseat, before I unload them and myself and head into work. By the time I leave work a mere 4-ish hours later, I’ve sweated off half of the makeup from a combination of lifting and chasing three year olds around gymnastics.

So when I was offered to try out Lipsense (a long-lasting and waterproof lipstick) from fellow blogger — and Lipsense distributor — Beth, I jumped on board. Anything that further simplifies my already simple makeup routine is a win by me.

Well, I was blown away! There are so many colors and options AND it truly does NOT come off throughout the day! Yes, even after chasing around ten 3-year olds for three hours straight! 🙂 That’s a huge win! My favorite color thus far is Bella (pictured above), but I really want to try a bold red next!

And I’m totally gifting a starter set to all of my female relatives for Christmas this year! Who wouldn’t want a little fancy, no-nonsense, lipstick in their stocking, am I right?!

Want to try it out yourself? I’m hosting a giveaway for one Starter Set (Choice of color, Glossy Gloss, and Oops Remover) for one of my lucky readers! To enter, use the Rafflecopter widget below!

Fall 2017 Favorites!

October 20, 2017 by Rachel 11 Comments

Fall is by far my most favorite time of year — the leaves are changing colors, the temperature is dropping, and the air is crisp. It’s perfection.

One of my favorite things about Fall (besides Pumpkin Spice Lattés) is dressing and accessorizing for the season! But there is SO much more to Fall than clothes and jewelry, am I right!?

Today I’ve rounded up some of my Fall Favorites for 2017! 

My JORD Wood Watch. I’ve been dying for one of these for myself for months now. I bought my husband a JORD Wood Watch from the Men’s Shop last year and I just knew my watch would be equally as gorgeous!

And OMG it is! It’s the perfect Fall accessory because it goes with everything and compliments the changing landscape!

My women’s wooden watch, which is the Frankie 35 series, is gorgeous! It’s made from Zebrawood, which I think makes it an incredibly unique women’s watch!

Want to win a $100 gift code to use on the JORD site!? Enter an exclusive giveaway for itsahero.com readers only HERE!

The giveaway is open through 10/29/17 and ALL entrants will receive a $25 gift code for the JORD site! Win-win! So go enter, NOW!

Shopping for a new planner. It’s official. Come Fall, the race is on for a new planner! I know, I know — there are still SEVERAL months left in the year; but events are already piling up for 2018! So a new planner is a requirement! And, YES, a planner is an accessory.

My favorite planner is the Day Designer. It’s perfect for my need to fill in time slots and a weekly layout. I’ve tried pretty much every planner on the market and this one is by far my long-standing favorite.

Fun with food. I’m just absolutely loving quirky, food-themed, accessories, silly cookies (which are both delicious and adorable), and t-shirts with random food printed on them (like donuts or hotdogs). It’s just a cute, fun way to incorporate something near and dear to my heart (ALL OF THE FOOD) with my everyday life.

Remy recently has been rocking this hot dog onesie from Estella NYC (cutest, softest, and made of organic cotton) and I’m IN LOVE. Also, my favorite new earrings are these ice cream cones!

All of the fun family activities. 

Let’s be real. This is where it’s really at — family. I honestly despise being outside, sweating, during the Summer. Sure, if I’m meant to be sweating (like, by exercising) I don’t mind; but just by being?? Nope.

That’s why Fall activities are where it’s at! Pumpkin patches, Halloween parties, Trunk-or-Treats — you name it, I’m up for it.

Especially when it comes to the kids. To see their faces light up? That’s my end goal every single day (no, this doesn’t happen everyday; but gosh darnit! It’s my goal!).

So this Fall you can find me trick-or-treating, pumpkin-patching, and party-going with two tiny humans in tow! ♥

So tell me — what are your 2017 Fall Favorites!? And don’t forget to enter my JORD Wood Watches giveaway here!
