    Summer 2023 Trending Beauty

To step up support for the LGBTQIA+ community, Garnier proudly partnered with Heritage of Pride and LGBTIQIA+ art director, Antoine Giessner, to create the first limited Pride edition of SkinActive Micellar Cleansing Water. As America’s #1 Micellar Water brand, there’s a reason one bottle is sold every 2 seconds. 

    Another colorful trending product is these liners that Victoria Beckham Beauty just launched.

    Hempz launched their first-ever sugar scrub, and editors and influencers went WILD! We tried it and agreed, it is so GOOD!

    Hempz Sweet Pineapple & Honey Melon Herbal Body Scrub
    PRICE: $12.99
    SHOP: @Hempz.com
    Body scrubs are an essential part of a summer beauty routine; the NEW Hempz Sweet Pineapple & Honey Melon Herbal Body Scrub is the perfect addition! It’s formulated with a blend of 100% pure natural hemp seed oil, shea butter, and aloe vera to provide long-lasting moisture – plus, it’s rich in essential vitamins. Better yet, its combination of two beautiful tropical fruits conspire to create the best tropical-scented scrub! Available on Hempz.com for $19.95, it’s time to get your hands on this luxurious sugar scrub that’ll leave your skin soft, luminous, and smelling amazing! 

    Skin cycling, flooding, and cleansing are the biggest TikTok stars for the face right now. Epicutis launched this celebrity-adorned cleansing set, and it was gone in a flash. Good news, she’s back in stock!

    Epicutis Cleansing Essentials Set
    PRICE: $95
    SHOP: @epicutis.com
    Redefine how you clean your skin by using gentle yet effective oils to remove unwanted dirt, makeup, and oil without stripping your skin of what it needs. This set contains: Epicutis Cleansing Oil- This oil cleanser forms micelles around the materials you wish to wash away, such as dirt, makeup, oils, etc. These micelles encapsulate them allowing these unwanted materials to wash off with just water. Enzyme Exfoliating Powder – Rather than using microbeads or acids, this exfoliator harnesses the activity of natural enzymes to help gently break down dead skin cells and excess oils to boost turnover. Natural enzymes Protease and Lipase work to boost natural turnover, while Sodium Lauroyl Glutamate aids in gently cleansing the skin without stripping away essential moisturization. The Epicutis difference: Typical cleansers create these micelles but use detergents that can break down our skin barrier and cause irritation.

    And, if you haven’t heard the term bio-hacking, you must be unplugged. HigherDose has been leading the way in glam-detoxing, and this Infrared Blanket is their biggest star! 

    HIGHERDOSE INFRARED SAUNA BLANKET
    PRICE: $699
    SHOP: @higherdose.com
    The original at-home infrared device, the Infrared Sauna Blanket, detoxifies the body, relaxes the mind, boosts your mood, promotes glowing skin, and stokes a healthy DOSE of your brain’s feel-good chemicals. Potential benefits include Improved Skin Health & Glow: Infrared, which increases your body’s core temperature over time, and helps push deeply-embedded impurities and toxins out of the skin to aid in acne reduction. The technology can also stimulate collagen production, improve skin texture and enhance your glow, giving you a more youthful complexion with continued use. Mood-Boosting Benefits: Just like the sun, infrared rays release natural yet effective doses of serotonin, endorphins, and dynorphins within the body to get you “high” naturally. The use of infrared also lowers the stress hormone cortisol to help you feel less anxious, allowing you to relax and fall asleep more easily. Put your body into a state of healing while releasing endorphins and dynorphins to get you “high” naturally. 

  • BEST PRODUCTS FOR A SWEATY SUMMER

    BEST PRODUCTS FOR A SWEATY SUMMER

    Tomorrow June 21st kicks off the official start of the summer season, and it will get hot. I’m back on Daytime Chicago to sharetheglam and show us some of the fun products she’s been testing out in time for the hottest and sweatiest season of the year. 

    First off, let’s talk about sweat! We tried many different products to combat wetness and stinkiness, and the winner is Secret Clinical (as usual). 

    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. 

    And nothing beats the heat more than a fabulous shower. We looked for a body wash that was effective at stripping off sweat and sunscreen but also left skin hydrated! This body wash from Hempz is so good, and also the scent is like a tropical vacation. 

    Hempz Sweet Pineapple & Honey Melon Herbal Body Wash 
    PRICE: $12.99
    SHOP: @hempz.com
    The NEW Hempz Sweet Pineapple & Honey Melon Herbal Body Wash is the perfect body care product for smooth summer skin! Its 3 in 1 formula gently exfoliates, cleanses and hydrates. Designed to nourish the skin, this body wash contains alpha hydroxy acids to exfoliate skin, shea butter to help replenish moisture, aloe vera to hydrate and soothe skin and of course, 100% pure natural hemp seed oil for long lasting moisture. With notes of juicy pineapple, fresh melon, and juicy mango, this tropically scented moisturizer is perfect for beautiful smelling summer skin! Also available in 5 other best-selling scents for $12.99 on Hempz.com.

    Another product or rather garment we fell in love with for summer is this gorgeous anti-chaffing thigh band. 

    Bandelettes Thigh Bands
    PRICE: $19.99
    SHOP: @ Bandelettes.com and Amazon 
    The brand’s mission is to help women feel comfortable and confident, providing a sexy solution to an unsexy problem – thigh chafing! Bandelettes Thigh Bands are designed to wear on your upper thighs under skirts and dresses to prevent chafing. Bandelettes Thigh Bands are a best-seller on Amazon and have over 10k 5-star ratings. Bandelettes Thigh Bands are available in lace or solid microfiber and feature non-slip silicone strips around the inside to keep bands in place all day long. 

    We love anything that takes the brassiness out of our hair color, but summer is notorious for depleting shine too. Hair Biology did it again with this gorgeous collection.

    Hair Biology Silver and Glowing Collection
    PRICE: $9.99 each
    SHOP: @hairbiology.us and Target
    Brassy hair is a result of years of coloring, excessive heat styling, UV rays from the sun, swimming in chlorinated pools, and even pollution. It can be very frustrating when you’ve previously sparkled and now your glow is gone. Sound familiar? Far too many women fall culprit to unwanted shades of yellow — bringing them further away from their ideal hair color, whether that be a luscious grey or blonde. But it doesn’t have to be this way. How? Say hello to silver shampoo and conditioner.

    And last but not least, summer is all about minimizing your beauty routine. If you’re still getting lash extensions, summer is a great time to give your lashes and wallet a break. This serum combo is a TikTok darling and has a brow-boosting product in it. 

    NULASTIN® LASH and BROW Dual System with Elastaplex®
    PRICE: $139
    SHOP: @nulastin.com
    Notice up to 60% longer-looking lashes & 120% fuller-looking brows. If you have short, thin lashes or sparse brows, our proven LASH & BROW Dual System with Elastaplex® Technology visibly boosts the length and density of eyelashes and eyebrows — regardless of your age, gender, or health. Made with skin-safe, ethically sourced, naturally derived ingredients and backed by five issued U.S. patents, our groundbreaking formulas have been proven to support the body’s natural ability to stimulate the replenishment of elastin. In a 12-week clinical evaluation, participants experienced up to 60% longer-looking eyelashes and up to 120% fuller-looking eyebrows.

  • 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. 

    NULASTIN® LASH and BROW Dual System with Elastaplex®
    PRICE: $139
    SHOP: @nulastin.com
    Notice up to 60% longer-looking lashes & 120% fuller-looking brows. If you have short, thin lashes or sparse brows, our proven LASH & BROW Dual System with Elastaplex® Technology visibly boosts the length and density of eyelashes and eyebrows — regardless of your age, gender, or health. Made with skin-safe, ethically sourced, naturally derived ingredients and backed by five issued U.S. patents, our groundbreaking formulas have been proven to support the body’s natural ability to stimulate the replenishment of elastin. In a 12-week clinical evaluation, participants experienced up to 60% longer-looking eyelashes and up to 120% fuller-looking eyebrows.
