November Favorites

November is here and we’re revving up for the holiday season. Are you an eager beaver when it comes to decorating your home for the holidays or do you prefer to wait until December to deck the halls? We’ve rounded up all our November favorites to get you in holiday mode and we can’t wait to hear your own favorites on social media. 

What we’re listening to 

Red (Taylor’s Version) 🎶

Either you’ve been living under a rock for the past two years, or you already know that Tay-Tay is re-releasing all her music in order to own all the masters prior to Lover. We’re just as obsessed with her songs the second time around, but there’s something special to hear the re-recorded songs coming from the heart of T-Swift. We know that holiday tunes will soon fill the airwaves and we’ll hear Mariah about 867 times, but for now, we’re listening to “Wildest Dreams (Taylor’s Version)” on repeat.

Taste the Nation-Holiday Edition📺

History, culture, and delicious food...what’s not to love about the new Taste the Nation-Holiday Edition mini-series. Diving into various cultural traditions of people around the United States we learn how families across the country celebrate long-standing traditions of Thanksgiving, Hanukkah, Buenanoche, and Lunar New Year. Grab the popcorn, cozy up and you’re sure to learn something new while you get in the holiday spirit.

What we’re smelling 

Brown Sugar Vanilla 👃

Aromas of baked goods, happiness, and hygge vibes of being at home surrounded by loved ones. It’s one of those cozy fall scents that leave us feeling all warm and fuzzy inside. 

Current craving 

Pumpkin Pie (with whipped cream!)🥧

Whether you roast the pumpkin yourself and make the crust from scratch or opt for the canned stuff in a store-bought crust, pumpkin pie is one of those family favorite recipes that cannot be forgotten on the Thanksgiving dessert list. We’ll take our slice with a generous dollop of whipped cream, please and thank you. 

 

Self-care habit

Under-eye patches 👁

The days are shorter and the nights are longer, but that doesn’t necessarily mean you’re getting more sleep. Busy schedules with less “me-time” are prevalent leading up to the holidays so don’t forget to take time to pamper yourself. If you didn’t clock the hours of sleep you hoped for last night, grab a pair of undereye patches and throw them on during your morning routine. Many undereye masks are filled with ingredients like Vitamin C, Caffeine and Hyaluronic Acid which help reduce dark circles and puffiness immediately while also combatting dry skin, wrinkles, and fine lines long-term. Add them to your Amazon shopping cart along with your KubWipes 100% Cotton Dry Wipes and enjoy your 15 minutes of pampering. 

Weekend plans

Friendsgiving 🍗

Thanksgiving is a great excuse to share a meal with your friends, potluck style. Divide up the dishes and get together to break bread, share laughs and kick off the holiday season together before everyone splits up to celebrate with their own families. Don’t forget to take a KubWipes Mini Box with you to help clean up any messes or spills and refresh yourself after the meal.

Monthly mantra

“Be happy with what you have while working for what you want.” -Hellen Keller 💙

Thanksgiving time reminds us to be grateful for what we have but that doesn’t mean you can’t have dreams of more. Whether you’re grateful for your job, but striving for a promotion, or you’re thankful for your health but yearning for clearer skin, working toward your goals doesn’t have to mean you’re ungrateful for your current position. This month, reflect on all your blessings but then make a list of all the goals you still want to achieve.

Fun fact

The average number of calories consumed on Thanksgiving is 4,500. 😲

No wonder we all need a nap after the meal. 😅

Trick to try 

Shine your boots 👢

Did you know your KubWipes 100% Cotton Dry Wipes can be used for more than facial cleansing and makeup removal? The ultra-soft wipes are the perfect size and texture to help keep your leather boots in excellent condition. The pearled texture of our wipes helps gently buff away any marks without damaging the delicate material. Make sure your favorite boots are clean from dirt and grime by giving them a good brush before you begin, then grab a fresh wipe and dip it in your favorite leather wax or hydrating balm and gently massage the product into your boots in small circles. Remember to patch test on the tongue before you begin and less is more! Your boots will be looking shiny and new in no time at all, and since you used an eco-friendly and disposable wipe from KubWipes to do your shining, you won’t have any stained and smelly towels hanging around afterward.
