Yellow Canary: Everyday "Must Haves"

Everyone has their little list of "must have" brands or products.  While the rest of the "canarys" are flitting around during our wedding season, I will contribute the Ginny list of everyday must-have products.  All will share by the end of the summer- feel free to share some of your favorites in the comments section!



1. Coffee- I have a few favorite brands or coffee shops, but truly, as long as it is strong and not scalding hot- it is all good to me!

2. Aquafresh Extreme Clean- If you have not tried this toothpaste I suggest you try it!  My mouth still feels fresh, even after the coffee I enjoy all morning.  The "extreme" in the name is not kidding around- this is not for the faint of heart!

3. Clinique Foundation and Powder- I have über-red skin and spend a fair amount of my "primping" time hiding my red cheeks and after years of trying to find the perfect cover, I have finally come up with a faceplan that works for me.  I use a foundation brush to apply the Clinique Redness Solution foundation to the apple of my cheeks and wherever it is the reddest.  After it settles, I use  the Superpowder Double Face Powder all over to even and smooth.  Neither makeup system is too heavy  or chunky- the overall effect is pretty smooth.

4. Nivea Sun-Kissed Radiance Lotion- I wear sunscreen regularly but like a little color, so lotion with a tiny bit of self tanner is my way to go.  It covers naturally and smells good and is not too heavy to wear in the hot summer!

5.Peppermint Stick- This is an awesome headache stick that I picked up at Nourish in Savannah, Georgia.  After the first application I was hooked; it helps relieve a headache, cools you when you are hot and helps you focus when you are fatigued.





6. Nourish Soap- Speaking of Nourish, I have had one of their bars of soap in one scent or another for the past three years or so.  The Lavender Oatmeal bar is probably my favorite, but they are all wonderful!
