Anyone watching White Lotus? I am in awe of the cinematography, the acting, the music - all of it. The weirdness, the goodness, the relatability, the absolute UNrelatability (just made that into a word). I mean, the show is a wild ride on Jennifer Coolidge’s yacht and I’m here for every moment!
What other shows are you all watching?
I’ve also recently gotten into reading books on Kindle on my phone, which is a life-changer. While I still prefer reading actual paper, the convenience of having the book right at your fingertips (because we’re all addicted to our phones) at any given time has propelled me into reading at least two books a week. Is that nuts? I used to fall asleep to the TV, but now I stay up late reading books.
What are some of your favorite books?
Random thought: Sometimes I think about how Twitter doesn’t allow me to embed the FunnieZ anymore and I get all mad.
Today’s paid post is all about ShopMy and Skimlinks link. Namely, why your ShopMy links are showing Skimlinks as the referring traffic and what this actually means for your brands.
LFG!

Packd is a great solution for any traveler, whether or solo or with family joining. This genius business idea offers pre-labeled, pre-paid mailing bags to send up to 10 lbs of clothes home, to anywhere in the U.S., helping to free up space in your luggage for souvenirs, memorabilia, or to keep your clean clothes separate from dirty laundry. I’m going to use this the next time we travel somewhere and stay in a hotel versus an AirBNB where I do laundry before we leave.
Rodan + Fields is now available at Ulta, and if you haven’t heard of some of their best selling products, now you will: Lash Boost (gives you longer and fuller looking lashes in 4 weeks by helping maintain lash moisture, enhance lash durability and protect against breakage) and Redefine Multi-Function Eye Creme (strengthens, firms + lifts to minimize visible fine lines, wrinkles + crow's feet).
This Too Faced Born This Way Sunset Palette is similar to a Chocolate one I already have and I’m loving the mix of shimmer + sparkles with muted brown tones. Seems absolutely perfect for the summer. It’s in my cart!

ShopMy x Skimlinks
