After Searching For The Perfect Lip Liner For Years, Here Are My 8 Faves

They feature more of a milky, sea foam green that's a bit brighter and can instantly elevate any look. For instance, if you want to fully embrace a pastel palette this spring, key lime pie nails can be the cherry on top. Or, if you're more of a neutral or monochrome girl, this mani can embolden your outfit a bit without being too loud.

The best part? You can really do so much with this shade. If we're being honest, everyone tends to have their own go-to nail style that can be hard to ditch. You might prefer almond over square nails, natural as opposed to acrylic, or more intricate designs instead of plain polish colors.

With key lime pie-like shades, you can totally customize your manicure without your favorite look appearing too overpowering. For example, can you imagine how elegant French tips would look with this milky green hue? Or, go the bolder route by sporting another complementary pastel on the rest of your fingers and allowing a key lime pie shade to serve as an accent nail.

Since we are coming up on Easter, there are plenty of other on-theme options, too. You can add pastel polka dots, squiggles that resemble egg designs, or even embellishments like charms. The possibilities are quite literally endless.

To try out the key lime pie nail trend at home, check out the shade Hula-rious offered by OPI Nail Lacquer or the shade Sea Glass sold by Cote Beauty. Here are some of our favorite options for this:

• Lichen by Londontown
• Manicurist Pistachio Green
• Olive & June Corrigan
• OPI Nail Lacquer Opaque Hula-rious Light Green Crème
• Butter London Patent Shine 10x Nail Lacquer - Garden Party
  
• Sea Glass sold by Cote Beauty

Spicy Uncured Charcuterie Collection

A good charcuterie always starts with the meat, and Trader Joe's is stocked with plenty of options. This premium $9 spicy trio is insanely tasty, provides you with a nice variety, plus, they make really stunning meat roses.

Salame di Parma Mild Salami

I'll also always typically grab a second option for meat, and that second grab tends to be salami since it's super salty and easy to eat with crackers and bits of cheese in the same bite. This $6 pack is described as "well-balanced" and "mild" so everyone will enjoy snacking on the slices.

Double Cream Brie

Brie is where it's at, and it gets even better when you whip up a simple baked brie to pair with the rest of your charcuterie goodies. To make mine, I'll snag this $8.49 block, chop it up and put it in a ramekin, and bake it at a high temp until it's nice and bubbly. It makes the perfect snack to dip crackers in, plus you can easily elevate it with two of my favorite add-ins below...

Spicy Honey Sauce

Yup – hot honey supremacy! Drizzling a bit of this on top of my baked brie truly changes everything. Both the sweet and spicy components of this $5 bottle pair wonderfully with brie – you'll be addicted once you try it, I promise.

Fig Butter

This $3 fig butter also goes absolutely nuts when you use it as a baked brie topper. It's super simple and subtly sweet. If you love complex, elevated flavors, you've gotta try this pick. It also works well on toasts, sammies, and even burgers!

Fig & Olive Crisps

Out of the literal millions of crackers Trader Joe's has to offer, I think these $4 babies are the best money can buy. Each bite is infused with flax, sesame, and sunflower seeds for a yummy crunch, plus, they're made with figs and olives that provide a delectable salty-sweet balance. What I like most about 'em is they have great structural integrity, so they don't break when you use them for dipping or layering between meats and cheeses.

Prosciutto Wrapped Fresh Mozzarella Cheese

This $5 snack has the best of both worlds, so it could be a good grab if you want to set up a snack board quickly without spending over $15 on a full suite of meats and cheeses. They're definitely easy to inhale because they're flavorful as ever!

Garlic & Jalapeño Stuffed Olives

I could go on and on and on and on about these stuffed olives. They're insane. A jar doesn't ever last long in my fridge. Each plump bite is packed with slivers of garlic and jalapeño, though they're not overly spicy. The brine balances everything out wonderfully. I like to serve these in a tiny bowl on top of my charcuterie boards and eat 'em up!

Ciabatta Demi-Baguette

This bread is a must if you're looking to made a baked brie with your charcuterie board: slice it up, toast the pieces for a bit, and you have the perfect vessel for a spoonful of melty brie paired with either the hot honey or fig jam. I tend to buy this "demi" size because I often enjoy my charcuterie boards with one or two other people, but TJ's also sells full-size baguettes to feed bigger crowds!

Dark Chocolate Peanut Butter Cups

These PB cups easily rank in my top 10 favorite Trader Joe's products of all time. Encased in decadent dark chocolate, these bites also hold plenty of creamy peanut butter for a timeless treat – especially one you'll want to unwrap after chowing down on charcuterie!
