The Chirpyest: Emma’s New Apartment Essentials

by chirpyest June 10, 2022

Emma here, Community Coordinator here at chirpyest! I am moving to a new apartment in another state in just one week! (I am super excited but super stressed out lol) But, I wanted to discuss some of the items I will be purchasing or have already purchased for my new apartment!

Don’t forget to sign up and shop with chirpyest here!

Barstools

apartment — Barstool
+5% cash back at Target with C hirpyest

After signing my lease, the first item I started looking for were barstools. I spent HOURS looking at barstools online and finally found the perfect one. The black on this chair will flow perfectly with the black detailing that is on the cabinet handles and appliances of my apartment. I was also pretty adamant about finding stools that had a modern yet boho feel. I think the black legs and cane detailing accomplished that goal.

Kitchen Accessories

The next dilemma I faced is that our sink is in the middle of the kitchen island. I did not want a drying rack placed on the counter simply for aesthetic reasons. My solution was this drying rack I found. You can place it right over your sink and it fold it to the side when you are done using it. Is it weird that I might be the most excited about this?

Bowl and Plate Set
+2% cash back at Walmart with Chirpyest

The next essential was finding a bowl and plate set. These simple white dishes with the little bit of details will be perfect.

I am also in need of a wood cutting board. Here are a few that I’m looking at!

Bathroom

I need a bathroom refresh and I am loving yellow accents lately. This shower curtain has a simple grey stripes and I love the fringe on the bottom. The bath mat has a braided look and all the reviews say it is an extremely comfy material. The hand towels are the closest color match I could find to the bath mat…but I may keep looking for that perfect color match.

Bedding

I currently have a white bedspread and I love how it looks, but I am a huge late night snacker and am obsessed with keeping my comforter white, so it is not the best combo. Above are a few comforters that I am loving lately, I just cannot decide!

P.S. I will share photos once I have officially moved in and settled!

The Chirpyest: Bianca’s Beach Beauty Essentials

by chirpyest June 2, 2022

Bianca here with all of my beach beauty essentials that you should have too! Summer is around the corner and that means sunny beach days are upon us. The main and most important theme in any beach beauty product is drum roll please…SPF! To nobody’s surprise I will be suggesting many products that are sunscreen related. Today I am going to share with you nine beauty essentials everyone should have in their beach bag.

Don’t forget to sign up and shop with chirpyest here!

Facial SPF

Always wear sunscreen on your face! Not only will it help protect those rays from burning you but is also a great preventative for wrinkles. Find an SPF that works best for you skin type but this one by elta MD is seemingly a fan favorite for all skin types.

beach — EltaMD UV Clear Broad-Spectrum SPF 46
+ 2% cash back at Walmart with Chirpyest

Tinted Moisturizer

Have some blemishes or complexion issues and want some light coverage? Well I’ve got you covered with what may be my favorite tinted moisturizer that I’ve tried. It lightweight and moisturizing and creates a seamless skin-like finish – plus it also has more SPF!

Body SPF

We don’t want to just protect our face from those UV rays but our bodies as well. Trust me you will still get a tan even with sunscreen. This one by Neutrogena is an easy spray on and doesn’t leave that greasy film on your skin.

Refreshing Facial Spray

Now this may be considered an unnecessary or such an “extra” type of product to have but I don’t care because I am extra when it comes to beauty. This Grape Water spray is so refreshing and moisturizing. Perfect to spray if you start to over heat and don’t have a tiny fan with you.

Lip Balm

We can’t forget to moisturize those lips – bonus points if it’s tinted or has SPF. This on by Kosas contains hyaluronic acid and comes in multiple shades.

Kosas Sport LipFuel
+ 5% cash back at Neiman Marcus with Chirpyest

Scalp SPF

That’s right I’m not done talking about SPF! The scalp is not the first place you think to put sunscreen, or the second or even the third. However I find that personally I tend to burn on the top of my head which then leads to looking like I have dandruff when my scalp peels. Protect yourself from that embarrassment and discomfort with an SPF spray for your scalp.

Suncare Ocean Salt & Sage Scalp & Hair Mist SPF 30
+ 3.5% cash back at Nordstrom with Chirpyest

Conditioner Spray

A leave in conditioner is another product I feel goes over looked. Personally I have oily hair but having that extra moisture is vital when having a beach day. The ocean or pool can really dry out your hair. Leave in conditioner is perfect – it’s lightweight but adds moisture and tames frizz.

Farewell Frizz Rosarco Milk Leave In Conditioning Spray + 5% cash back at Bloomingdale’s with Chirpyest

Aloe Gel

Such an underrated beauty product in my opinion. Although I do tan easily, my face gets red just as easy. I also have a bit of rosacea so the calming elements of an aloe gel not only help soothe that but will help with any sort of burn you may have gotten from the sun.

Deodorant

Last but not least it can never hurt to bring some deodorant to the beach. Whether you are someone who is active on the beach or likes to lounge around you are still sweating and nobody wants to smell that. Always pack some deodorant with you to freshen up.

The Chirpyest: Emma’s Essentials You Need for Summer

by chirpyest May 20, 2022

Hi! Emma here, Community Coordinator at chirpyest! I am here to provide you with essentials you need. I’ll be honest…I have been doing a lot of online shopping…maybe too much…but always using chirpyest to get up to 15% cash back on my purchases.

I decided to take over the blog and share some of my current essentials.

Skincare

Face Cleanser | Ultra Repair Cream | CeraVe Sunscreen | Tan Express

Above are some of my all time favorite self care products. I have been using the First Aid Beauty Face Cleanser and Repair Cream for years now and it works better than anything else I have used!

The Cerave Tinted Mineral Sunscreen is perfect for a day when you don’t want to wear makeup, but want some coverage and SPF. This sunscreen is tinted so it evens out your complexion, but most importantly will protect your face from the sun. Especially if you are using a toner or retinol in your skincare routine…I cannot say that enough!! I recently started self tanning and am loving the St. Tropez Tan Express. I am very pale and I do not tan at all, so this has been essential lately to add some color to my skin.

Fashion

Suit | Shorts | Set | Romper

Princess Polly, Revolve, Boohoo and Target are some of my go-to brands. The Feels Like Summer Shorts from Princess Polly are my absolute new favorite pair of jean shorts. They are high waisted (I will not be hopping on the low-rise jean trend) and also super comfortable.

The other items above are currently in my shopping cart. This swimsuit is so fun and would be perfect for a lake, pool or beach day. The set and romper are perfect because they can be worn casually or dressed up depending on the shoes and accessories you add.

Accessories

Personally I am in love with the white shoes and beaded bag. I am in desperate need of new sneakers and I think these might be my next purchase. I also own very similar jewelry to the pieces above, I strictly wear simple silver pieces. The black wedges are the perfect summer time shoe to slip on with any outfit.
