Hope everyone had an amazing Memorial Day weekend and enjoyed some sunshine! Joshua and I indulged in some serious R&R time. We spent the whole weekend laying by the water at Lake Norman where I started reading Me Before You {obsessed, anyone reading or have read?} while soaking up some serious rays. It is the first time, in a long time, that I wasn’t spending the afternoon blogging, doing wedding planning, or running errands. And I couldn’t have possibly loved the laid back time any more. It reminded me how important that time is. Your body, mind, and honestly soul need it!

While relaxing hard this past weekend I tried out some new products. I’ve mentioned a couple times I’m really interested in trying out new skincare products as I’m always looking for ways to better my skin. This past weekend I tried out Jason Gentle Basics line and I LOVE it!

Jason Gentle Basics line has minimal ingredients which I LOVE. I hate looking at the back of any kind of beauty/skincare package and seeing a laundry list of ingredients. I also know that my skin isn’t a fan of products like that. Simple and easy is the way my skin likes it!

The wipes where beyond perfection for the lake. After hours in the sun you start to get all sweaty {gross, I know but it happens to the best of us}. While the water is a great refresher there’s times you just want to get the build up of sweat and sunscreen off of your face and kind of start over. The wipes were great for doing just that and I ended up using quite a few through out the weekend. Jason Gentle Basics, Skin Care, Beauty, Summer Essentials, Daily Skincare Essentials, Target

For the lake {or day at the beach} does anyone else absolutely cram their bag full of everything?! I have to have book and/or magazines, a snack or two {my go to is trail mix and a lara bar}, a hat, sunscreen, sunglasses, beach towel {obviously}, water bottle, face wipes {now}, and lotion. These are all my everyday essentials for the lake or beach. Plus a great bag to store all of these items in!

Anyone have any exciting beach or lake weekends planned for the summer? Even though it’s not officially summer, I feel like Memorial Day Weekend is the unofficial start of summer. So I will now be calling it summer time. This weekend Joshua and I are headed to Sunset Beach to spend some time with college buddies {one including my MOH, YAY}. So be sure to follow along via snapchat: LauraLeighLou

If y’all have any recommendations for restaurants or anything around Sunset Beach definitely let me know. I’d love to hear them!

    This looks like a great set of skincare. I am not a fan of products with a huge list of ingredients either – the simpler, the better. And a weekend on a lake sounds like the perfect summer getaway!
