Deserted Island + Medicine Cabinet Items

Island-finalIt would be a TON of fun to be stranded on a deserted island with Erika and Shay! I feel like we would never tire of things to chat about! There are definitely some things I would like to bring along though. If I could plan ahead, of course. 😉  This week, we’re talking all about medicine cabinet items! What are my go-to’s and my can’t live withouts?!

One. I’m obsessed with this stuff. I put it on my lips so many times throughout the day. I have it in my purse, on my desk at school, and on my nightstand. It would be along for the ride!

Two. I’m not sure if moisturizer technically counts as a medicine cabinet item so I decided two and three were a tie. 😉 (This is also another great moisturizer that I use every day. It never fails!)

Three. My allergies are insane! If I’m stranded, the least I can do is not be sneezing the entire time.

Four. I love, love, love this sunscreen and it would definitely make it on the list of things I would bring on an island. But ladies, I need your help!2016-04-10_0001

I’m trying to find a sunscreen with less toxins. I’ve heard great things about COOLA sunscreen, Lancer Sun Shield, Arcona Sunscreen, Raw Elements Sunscreen, and MDSolarSciences.

Has anyone tried these? I’m up for any recommendations! 🙂

I was in awe and it felt so surreal. I remember feeling extremely thankful for everything I was fortunate enough to explore and do while I was in Greece but Santorini created an entirely different picture of thankful. I felt like I could not soak up the amount of beauty it had to offer. There were crystal clear oceans and skies. White buildings with blue roofs painted the horizon and the families and restaurants felt so welcoming and warm. The sun hit this place like it was a slice of heaven and I never wanted to leave. Honestly. I was here with some of my best friends and slowly taking in every moment with such a grateful heart. Snapping pictures at every turn couldn’t provide half of the justice it deserved in person. Santorini can’t be explained in words and it should be added to your bucket list. It truly is a place that takes your breath away and offers you top notch hospitality and beauty at it’s finest.  stephanie-spring.com stephanie-spring.com stephanie-spring.comstephanie-spring.com stephanie-spring.com stephanie-spring.com stephanie-spring.com stephanie-spring.com stephanie-spring.com stephanie-spring.com stephanie-spring.com stephanie-spring.comstephanie-spring.comstephanie-spring.com stephanie-spring.com stephanie-spring.com stephanie-spring.com stephanie-spring.comstephanie-spring.com stephanie-spring.comstephanie-spring.comstephanie-spring.com stephanie-spring.com stephanie-spring.com stephanie-spring.com stephanie-spring.comstephanie-spring.comstephanie-spring.com stephanie-spring.comstephanie-spring.com stephanie-spring.com stephanie-spring.comstephanie-spring.com stephanie-spring.com stephanie-spring.com stephanie-spring.comstephanie-spring.comstephanie-spring.com
