Beef
“Beef on Netflix is weird and cringe-inducing at times but absolutely brilliantly written and acted. My jaw was on the floor almost every episode. It is such a poignant look at almost every human struggle we come across today. Money, race, class, education, gender, religion, creativity … I could go on and on. It is so visually tasty, too. Watch!” — Zoe Yarborough, Staff Writer

EarthBreeze’s Laundry Detergent Eco Sheets
“I recently purchased the Eco Sheets by EarthBreeze, and now I’ll never go back to buying big messy laundry detergent jugs. The sheets are hypoallergenic, dermatologist-tested, cruelty-free, and available fragrance-free or in a fresh floral scent. They work in all machines, and you can use them for your delicates, too. I was skeptical at first that a tiny sheet would clean my laundry, but they actually make my clothes and towels smell fresh and feel cleaner! A big plus is that Eco Sheets are better for the planet and wildlife, too. Over 700,000,000 single-use plastic laundry jugs end up in landfills and oceans each year. Eco Sheets come in a small biodegradable cardboard package, they’re inexpensive, and shipping is free.” — Mary Breen, Web Developer
Free of parabens, bleach, and dye, Eco Sheets by EarthBreeze leave your laundry fresh and clean — all while helping reduce your carbon footprint. Image: Earth Breeze
Patchology Eye Gels
“I love these Patchology eye gels. Each formula is boosted with different ingredients whether you’re looking to depuff, hydrate, or wind down for the day, but they’re all equally refreshing (and a fun, easy way to add a little pampering into your routine).” — Alissa Harb, Managing Editor

‘REPLICA’ Lazy Sunday Morning by Maison Margiela
“I bought a travel-sized bottle of this fragrance and have loved it so much that I’m going to go for the bigger bottle next. It’s slightly pricey at $160, but it’s such a soft, light, and clean scent. It’s not too overpowering or heavy, but it stays on the skin for a long time. I definitely recommend it if you like light, floral scents!” — Bailey Torkelson, Marketing Manager

Southern Grove Banana Chips
“I’ve had so many friends encourage me to make an Aldi outing and browse the shelves. ‘Don’t go there with specific things in mind,’ said one friend. ‘Just go to see what jumps out at you.’ Well, I did, and I wound up becoming obsessed with something that has never really been on my radar — banana chips. Yes, you read that right. I’m obsessed with banana chips, which is downright … well … bananas. Anyway, I keep a bag of these babies on my desk for a mid-afternoon snack, and they satisfy my sweet tooth without going overboard. Fair warning: if you aren’t careful, snacking on ‘just a few chips’ will turn into ‘where’d they all go?’” — Jenna Bratcher, Lead Nashville Writer & Associate Editor
Made of real bananas and coconut oil, Southern Grove banana chips make for a great afternoon snack. Image: Aldi
AHAHA Women’s Panama Sun Hat
“I bought this hat recently and am so excited to wear it on my beach trip! It’s a mix of trendy and chic, and perfect for the summertime.” — Katelyn Caughron, Client Relations & Social Media Coordinator

DNA Vibe’s Jazz Band
“I’ve been trying out DNA Vibe’s patent-pending Jazz Band for the past couple of months as I’ve dealt with joint and tendon pain for most of my life. I do think it’s helping. It’s trusted by hundreds of pro and Olympic athletes, and it’s super affordable for the benefits. You just Velcro it onto the part of your body you feel pain or stiffness, and the band goes to work with a combination of red, near-infrared, pulsed magnetic, and micro-vibration. With a 60-day guarantee, I feel comfortable recommending this. With everyone trying to be more active at a wide range of ages, it’s nice to be able to combat pain without medication to consistently stay more active. There is one for $159, but I’ve been trying the $279 version — which has four modes to combat pain.” — Liza Graves, CEO & Founder
You can use the DNA Vibes Jazz Band on the neck, back, knees, elbows, or anywhere else you feel muscle pain or stiffness. Image: DNA Vibe
Jury Duty
“After seeing ads for Jury Duty all over social media, I finally gave in and watched it. I’ll be honest … I was shocked at how much I enjoyed the series from beginning to end. It’s a documentary-style comedy series that follows the process of jury duty through the eyes of 12 people — 11 actors and one ‘normal’ person who doesn’t know everything he’s experiencing is fake. The show is so innovative, and I think I laughed out loud at every episode. It’s an incredibly heartwarming series.” — Brianna Goebel, Associate Editor & Sponsored Content Manager

Epionce Daily Shield Tinted SPF 50
“The silky texture of this tinted sunscreen makes wearing sunscreen feel luxurious. It is water-resistant, has an SPF of 50, and has the perfect amount of coverage. I wear it daily as my makeup and when I play tennis.” — Lele Thompson, Account Executive
Made from botanical ingredients and antioxidants, this tinted sunscreen will leave skin feeling hydrated and glowing. Image: LovelySkin
