    DAY 1: Holiday Gifting Tour on Seattle New Day Northwest

    It’s that time of year when we often face the challenge of buying for those elusive individuals on our lists—those who, perhaps, haven’t sent Santa a wishlist. Fear not; for today, we’re here to share some glam, functional, and fun gift ideas for those hard-to-shop-for on your list on New Day Northwest!

    The Gift for Kids that Gets Them Outside and Off Their Phones
    First off, let’s talk kids! When they sent me this toy to test out, I thought, “Oh, this looks fun”, but I had no idea how much fun it truly was going to be. Plus, it’s easy, mess-free, non-toxic, and the charge lasts. The accessories are great, and it doesn’t break the bank to restock the gels. It’s meant for kids, but I have had fun blasting a few other parents, too. 

    GEL BLASTER SURGE
    PRICE: $39.99
    SHOP: @amazon
    Get outside and experience play in a whole new way with our original blaster—the Gel Blaster Surge! Surge uses water-based Gellets®. Rechargeable, mess-free, non-toxic, and safe for kids!

    Get up to 4 hours of play on a single charge via USB-C.

    Fragrance is still the #1 selling beauty gift in department stores, but they are getting so expensive. 
    This set is such a deal at $50; it smells great and is super versatile. I know because my sister wears it, and I have watched people stop her and ask her what perfume she is wearing. It’s just one of those universally liked scents at an affordable price for the holidays. 

    JLO Fragrances Promise Gift Set
    PRICE: $50.00
    SHOP: Amazon, JCP
    Fresh and captivating top notes of Italian tangerine, pink berries and nashi pear, give way to a heart of floral orris, jasmine sambac, and honeysuckle and powerful base notes of wood with crystallized amber. Stunning multifacet glass bottle, luxuriously crafted with rose gold detailing.

    Acne products are another big spend for families this time of year.

  • TikTok Trends on Arizona Midday

    TikTok Trends on Arizona Midday

    In a world of social media hacks and mess-ups, it’s getting challenging to know what really works. Today on Arizona Midday, we try out some of the summer trends and products and share what we LOVE and what is meh…

    SKIN FLOODING:
    Skin Flooding is a TikTok darling with more videos than we can even watch. The “flood” starts with a clean, damp face. After that, apply a healthy amount of serum that’s rich in antioxidants. Finally, you layer an emollient cream to seal it all in. Derms have been touting the benefits for years, and now TikTok is making skin flooding a star. 

    Delavie Sciences’ Aeonia Age Defying Serum
    PRICE: $125
    SHOP: @delaviesciences.com
    The novel ingredient, Bacillus Lysate, has significant UV-shielding properties in greater ranges than most UV filters and as the first cosmetic product certified by the Space Foundation, Bacillus Lysate is a safer, natural alternative to the harmful chemicals used in most sunscreens. Delavie Sciences’ Aeonia Age Defying Serum utilizes their patented ingredient, Bacillus Lysate, the first biological cosmetic that is Space Certified Technology™ by the Space Foundation™. Bacillus Lysate has been proven to significantly reduce UVA-induced skin damage as well as increase hyaluronic acid production in cells, and anti-aging genes. The Age Defying serum is clinically proven to decrease fine lines and wrinkles. Delavie was co-founded by Dr. David Sinclair, a distinguished Harvard geneticist with expertise in longevity.

    SKIN CYCLING:
    This trend is another one we can’t possibly keep up with; however, it’s a pretty easy process, like skin flooding. You basically start on day one with an exfoliant or fruit acid to break down the top layers of skin. On day 2, you apply retinol which typically causes irritation. Then on days 4 and 5, you simply apply a basic cream without any active ingredients to rest your skin. 

    NUPEEL NATURAL ENZYME PEEL
    PRICE: $40.00
    SHOP: @amazon
    Gently removes dead skin cells to promote glowing, radiant skin appearance. Utilizing papaya/papain enzymes to naturally exfoliate, and packed with a number of botanical extracts like aloe, pineapple, grape seed, green tea leaf and cucumber, NuPeel is like an at-home, natural facial peel in a bottle.
    • Non-abrasive, non-irritating papaya enzyme peel
    • Helps smooth skin and boost radiance
    • Rich with botanical extracts and micronutrients

    Stress Sweat Hack:
    Just in time for summer, even your deodorant has gone viral. All agree to put it on at night and before bed. If you are sweating in more places than your pits, have no fear, you can apply there too. This brand is the derm fave on the TOK, and the formula is formulated for stress seat, which is known to be stinkier.

    Secret Clinical Antiperspirant/Deodorant 
    PRICE: $12.95
    SHOP: @Target
    The Secret Clinical Antiperspirant /Deodorant provides 72-hours of clinically proven sweat and odor protection. The Secret Clinical Antiperspirant/Deodorant has 3X the stress sweat protection versus the wetness protection required of an ordinary antiperspirant. The Secret Clinical Antiperspirant/Deodorant is made with advanced odor fighters and pH-balancing minerals for incredibly long-lasting protection. Available in Completely Clean, Clean Lavender, and Stress Response. Available at Target and mass retailers for $12.95 in 2.6oz size.

    Eye Bag Hack:
    I’ve seen some crazy things on TikTok that really should not be on there. When it comes to eye bags, it’s almost like the wild west with homemade concoctions and tools. On this product’s debut, it sold out. And this isn’t a small brand. We are dying to try it out for ourselves. 

    IT Cosmetics Bye Bye Under Eye Bags 
    PRICE: $40
    SHOP: @itcosmetics.com
    Bye Bye Under Eye Bags delivers a depuffing, tightening and blurring film that rapidly reduces the look of severe under-eye bags in just 15 minutes on all skin tones. The formula is designed to be compatible on top of makeup and uses honeycomb technology, the creates an adhesive film on skin that does not crack. The combination of a polymer complex together with an aerogel adds tightening strength to this film, giving it the ability to tighten and compress eye bags. Free of parabens and mineral oil with no added fragrance. 

    EYE Lash Serum Wait and See: 
    This trend is seriously long-lived. But some are real, and even over at Instagram, this brand is shining. It’s not cheap, but it sure is less expensive than extensions. Plus, the brow videos are truly amazing. 

    NULASTINÂŽ LASH and BROW Dual System with ElastaplexÂŽ
    PRICE: $139
    SHOP: @nulastin.com
    Notice up to 60% longer-looking lashes & 120% fuller-looking brows.

There’s also next to no downtime: Just put on a little tinted sunscreen to hide the temporary redness, and you’re good to go!
