    Be a PRO @ Home on WGN’s Daytime

    All that self-care isn’t going anywhere it’s just going PRO. Want a clinical dose of Vitamin C for your skin? Or maybe a stamp eyeliner that draws the perfect cat-eye? All of that and more on Daytime in Chicago.  

    Knowing that Tonya loves her Vitamin C skincare, I really wanted to find the most potent treatment for her that’s suitable for home. Ironically, Olay just launched this moisturizer that has three dermatologist-recommended ingredients swirled into one cream that makes skin 2X brighter in 28 days. 


    Olay Vitamin C + Peptide Moisturizer

    PRICE: $28.99
    SHOP: @Olay.com
    Includes dermatologist recommended ingredients:
    • Vitamin C: Protects against free radical damage, brightens skin and boosts collagen production.
    • Vitamin B3 (Niacinamide): Boosts surface cell turnover and has been shown to even skin tone and tackle visible discoloration
    • AHA Lactic Acid: Exfoliates and tackles hyperpigmentation to reduce the appearance of dark spots. 
    • Free of parabens, phthalates, synthetic dyes, dermatologist tested.

    We’ve talked about lash serums before and how the trend is now to grow out your natural lashes versus the heavy extensions. NuCil is about as PRO you can go without a prescription. It’s a top seller for Obagi and the reviews pretty much say it all.

  • 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

    #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.

    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.

    #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!

    PRICE: $10-$12

    Fake it till you make it is the motto, right? We’ve got everything from eyelashes to sculpting bathing suits to cheat your way into looking and feeling fabtastic today on WGN’s Daytime.

    Let’s talk hair: With the bob haircut being the goto style of 2021, we’re seeing fewer extensions and more play with hair color. We say, get it done at home. Become your own colorist and save mucho dinero… Especially if you are someone like me who has to maintain roots every few weeks. These new colors by Avon are so shiny, easy to use, and take the guesswork out of the home salon experience.

Comes in a variety of shade ranges including rich browns, ravishing reds, radiant blacks, and beautiful blondes so you can find your perfect color.

    Most of us, if not already familiar, became friends with dry shampoo over quarantine. Now, I have the next level in clean hair without the shower. There seriously is nothing like this I’ve seen.

    How it works: When you spray Showerless Shampoo™, our formula interacts with your hair so that the dirt and sweat can be towel-dried away leaving you with hair that is actually clean. Towel dry to remove the dirt/sweat/daily grime, and air dry or blow dry excess moisture.

    2020 was the year that many women shed their addictive lash extensions. Now, we’re looking for ways to actually make our own lashes look longer and thicker without the glue and salon visits. Nothing works better than RapidLash but you have to stay with it.

Contains NO chemical sunscreen filters, dyes, fragrances, gluten, or preservatives.
    Reef-friendly. Also available non-tinted.

    Summertime might be on its way out, but that tan doesn’t have to fade. One of my favorite ways to fake a tan is with this daily moisturizer. It’s so easy.

    Happy National Beach Day 🏝


    What better way to celebrate National Beach Day than with our friends in Sunny Florida. Today we shared all our favorite essentials to you hydrated, glam, and protected from the rays for all the fun in the sun you can handle.

    Have you seen the new summer accessory of 2021 that combines beach hat and glasses all-in-one? Oh and it has built-in UPF 50+

    Araya Visors
    SHOP: @MyAraya.com

    The sun is responsible for 80% of skin aging.
    Our visors carry a certified UPF 50+ rating and block 98-100% UVA/UVB rays.
    They offer eye health by shielding the cornea and retina from UV radiation.
    UV radiation weakens skin elasticity, causes hyperpigmentation or sun spots, and can lead to skin cancer. Women who are pregnant are at risk for developing chloasma of the skin, a darkening around the cheeks, upper lip, and eyes, due to the heightened levels of hormones. One serious sunburn in childhood can double your risk of developing melanoma.
    Araya visors are heat-resistant, scratch-resistant, and available in 5 unique and stylish custom colors. We offer three sizes and two band options.
    Our visors are shipped in 100% recycled kraft corrugated cardboard. Even our packing tape is made from eco-friendly kraft paper, which means the box is actually recyclable, unlike most packaging tape!

The mineral formula won’t run into or sting eyes, even when swimming or sweating, which means more smiles and longer days at the beach. No more squirming or running away from the sunscreen tube. Simply shake, slather, and go!

    Packing the cooler? For the same price as that plastic bottle of infused water, you could bring on some ultra-hydrating and YUMMY coconut cans baby!

    Two varieties and a third coming. Legend has it, coconut water was made to tame the most ferocious of thirsts.

Once Upon A Coconut is the coconut water brand with a purpose. Once Upon A Coconut comes in two delicious varieties – Pure and Sparkling + Energy. Once Upon A Coconut is different from other coconut waters on the market because it’s made with young coconuts instead of mature, making it more refreshing with a sweeter flavor filled with potassium, calcium, and magnesium (all electrolytes).
