    Hot Summer Beauty on Daytime Chicago

    It’s getting hot out there and that means time to bring in the arsenal of long-wear, stay-put, and keep it dry beauty products. I’m back on Daytime Chicago to share some of my favorite summer beauty that will keep you glam and worthy of a #hotgirlsummer hashtag. 

    Let’s just start out with the “keep it dry” product. Not only dry but odor-free too. We tried out the new Weightless Dry Spray from Secret and it is now by far our favorite. It keeps you dry and smelling nice even after a scorching run. Plus it doesn’t ball up!

    Secret Weightless Dry Spray
    PRICE: $6.49
    SHOP: @walmart 
    • From the gym to date night, feel extra-confident with the power of 48 hour sweat and odor protection
    • WIth its instant dry feel and weightless protection on your skin, you won’t even know you’re wearing it
    • Be good to yourself. The pH balancing minerals in Secret Dry Spray Antiperspirant Deodorant means it’s tough on sweat but kind to your skin
    • Free from waxes and alcohol. Just the peace of mind that you’re odor-free to take on anything without breaking a sweat

    I know Charlotte Tilbury has been a constant theme in many of our segments but she keeps delivering new products that are blowing my beauty-infused mind. Seriously, this primer is so soft and lightweight. Your skin will look flawless and the silky cream has SPF 50 too. It just hit shelves on 5/19.

    Charlotte Tilbury UV Primer with SPF 50
    PRICE: $55

    Darlings, get ready to LOVE YOURSELF and PROTECT YOUR SKIN with my NEW! SPF 50 Invisible UV Flawless Poreless Primer!

    Nails are still the hot accessory of summer and this year it’s all about the neon. I’m only using clean polishes these days and these beyond-bright colors are designed to stay vibrant and stay on without the use of chemicals. Plus, they are $4.99. Say what???

    Nails.INC Neon Minis
    PRICE: $4.99

It’s the best fully pigmented neon formulation to date. Designed to be worn together for the latest ombré manicure look or alone for full-on neon.

    Summer hair is synonymous with frizz unless you’ve met this smooth hair oil. It’s insane at de-puffing and smoothing and is one of the best-reviewed products out there.

    You’ve got the primer to keep your statement blush and foundation in place, but what about that mascara? Go smudge-free this summer with a tubing formula. Essence makes one of the best-priced, clean, and perfectly black formulas.  

    Essence Bye Bye Panda Eyes Mascara

  • Mommy Hacks on Daytime in Chicago

    Mommy Hacks on Daytime in Chicago

    The biggest complaint we get from new moms is SLEEP! AND I’m sorry mommy but we can’t get you more sleep, but we can help you take care of that skin, those thinning nails and a few other ideas for keeping you sane and even glam for all those new baby selfies! Today we featured some tried and true products on WGN’s Daytime in Chicago.

    #1 Breastfeeding:
    Are your lips the driest they’ve ever been and nipples screaming for a rescue? These two things usually don’t align with the same product but the Multipurpose Superbalm by LANO is pretty much the bomb of balms!


    LANO 101 Ointment Multipurpose Superbalm
    PRICE: $17
    SHOP: @Ulta
    One sold every minute globally. The original Lanolips 101 Ointment is a super dense balm that penetrates and holds 200% of its weight in moisture. It has 101 uses – including some that are great for mom & baby alike:
    • Helps to heal stretch marks
    • Moisturize dry skin from head to toe on both mom and baby
    • Soothes and protects sore breastfeeding nipples
    • No need to rinse off before feeding; 101 Ointment is completely safe
    Dermatologically tested, vegetarian, and baby friendly. No artificial fragrances, parabens, petrolatum, PEG’s, mineral oil, or sulfates and no animal testing.

    #2 Is Your Skin Having a Hormonal Moment?
    There’s this weird thing that happens after bambino arrives- our skin tends to get a bit emotional and hormonal. If you’re breastfeeding it can be at its worst. Most moms want to keep what they’re putting on their skin free of Vitamin A and other harmful ingredients but want something that is still working on their concerns. I have Daytime and Nighttime options for you here! 

    Daytime: Honestly, you can’t go cleaner than 97% natural and plant-based.


    Merle Norman Aqua Bliss
    PRICE: $37
    SHOP: @merlenorman

Imparts time-released hydration and superior barrier protection for skin that feels comfortable, smooth, and petal-soft all year round.

    Nighttime: This is where we tend to bring out treatment products and Isdin’s Age Contour safely addresses a lot of mommy postpartum skin issues like discoloration and bringing back the calm to the skin. 

    ISDIN Age Contour Night
    PRICE: $125
    SHOP: @ISDIN.com/US

    #3 Is all about nails
     Most of us stop taking prenatal vitamins after birth and typically our nails start to suffer. If you’re peeling and splitting you must use this #1 cuticle oil! It’s mind-blowing for anyone, not just moms! 

    Cuccio Naturale Cuticle Oil
    PRICE: $10-$12
    SHOP: @amazon
