    This one is for Tonya! She told me she was obsessed with the Vitamin C cocktail from Lumene, so I wanted to share their upcoming sale of 30% off sitewide for BF/CM. This will be on the brand’s site @Lumene.com/us and run from November 21-28. And, just to give you one more product from the brand to be OBSESSED with, check out their Oatmilk Oil Cleanser.

  • Fall Must-Haves on Suncoast View

    Fall Must-Haves on Suncoast View

    The weather may not drop dramatically on the Suncoast, but we still love to have some fall fun in the sun. We visit our friend Stephanie Roberts on Suncoast View to share some fall must haves that are trending right now! 

    The weather may not change a whole lot, but when it does our hair and our skin FREAK OUT. Whether you grease up at the first shift in temps or you start to look cracky and dry, I’ve got two skincare options below. 

    Humphreys Clarifying Cleansing Pads
    PRICE: $8.98
    SHOP: @walmart

    • Fragrance-free, clarifying cleansing pads with Wild Harvested Witch Hazel removes excess oil and balances skin

    • Convenient and ready-to-use pads- gentle and non-drying for even sensitive skin
    • Dermatologist tested- no alcohol, dyes, sulfates, or gluten- Vegan and cruelty-free

    I’ve been a fan of this next product for so many reasons. First, it’s clinically proven to extend the lifespan of your injectibles. Yep, I said that.  But, it also is an amazing moisture base to skin that works on fine lines and wrinkles AND firms up any lax skin. It’s a must-have any time of the year, but definitely NOW if things are looking a bit cracky and heading south. 

    Theraderm Eternox Peptide Crème
    PRICE: $110
    SHOP: @theraderm.net
    This lightweight crème is formulated with the goal of decreasing the appearance of lax neck skin and reducing forehead wrinkles and other facial lines while moisturizing. Ingredients include our patented Soluble Keratin Peptides to help visibly reduce signs of aging.

    Florida is a hair horror when it comes to weather. In the summer your hair is dry with damage and oily at the root with sweat. In the winter your hair is static-filled from the forced heat and dry from the same elements as in summer. You must find a hair mask, no matter what your hair type is. One of my favorite brands is Davines. They just have something for EVERYONE and their products are clean and affordable.

  • Fall Must Haves on Daytime Chicago

    Fall Must Haves on Daytime Chicago

    When fall comes around, the leaves aren’t the only things that change. We reach for closed-toe shoes, maybe a heavier face cream, and sometimes even switch up our purses. Today, on Daytime Chicago, we show some new trends and tips for making the fall transition even more fun and fabulous.

    Let’s admit it lately, the weather has been all over the place.
    Whether you grease up at the first shift in temps or you start to look cracky and dry, I’m still going to sing the praises of a good clean witch hazel to get your skin balanced and ready for the cold that is inevitably coming. These pads make good skin easy and they are biodegradable.

    Fall and Winter mark the time of year when we tend to sweat a bit less, and maybe even not wash our hair as often. Whatever your routine, you must get your hair ready for the cold snap of winter that is coming soon. Find yourself a good hair and scalp mask now, before the damage is done.
    One of my favorite brands is Davines. They just have something for EVERYONE and their products are clean and affordable.

    If you’re a mature mom like me, you’re mood and skin may be acting a bit odd these days. Sound familiar? While I can’t suggest anything for your mood swings, I’m obsessed with this Chicago Based skincare brand. Suki is so clean and also so calming if you’re peri-eh-hem, meno-cycling like me.

    For celebrating your skin and embracing what’s next. Our MenoCycle Collection was designed to treat the hormonal changes and hot flashes experienced by women in perimenopause and menopause. 

    And if you’re looking for the next level (HELLO AMY), you can always splurge on a therapy mask to work at a cellular LED level. This should get your skin plump and pretty in no time and even work on your teenager’s acne!
