We visited the set of Suncoast View today to share my top 3 product picks for 2021. If your looking for healthy skin and hair, we’ve got you covered from head to toe…literally.
Still! Always my go to skincare year round. You can’t beat Lubriderm and now free of parabens and fragrance and infused with Omega-3.
Lubriderm Advanced Therapy Moisturizing Cream PRICE: $8.97 SHOP: @walmart, Target, Amazon In 2021, Lubriderm introduced its Advanced Therapy Moisturizing Cream which is fragrance and paraben free. The moisturizing cream helps transform extra-dry skin into healthy-looking, more resilient skin in just one week with twice daily usage. The Advanced Therapy Moisturizing Cream offers a thicker hydration formula and is enriched with Vitamin E, Pro-Vitamin B5, and is infused with Omega-3 for additional moisturizing benefits.
Another product that I am obsessed with, and certainly hooked every friend and client on is Theraderm’s NuPeel. It’s like magic for getting off that crepe-y, dead layer of skin that sits on top. I use it on my face, neck, knees, hands. EVERYWHERE that looks old.
Theraderm NuPeel Natural Enzyme Peel PRICE: $30 SHOP: @theraderm.net, Amazon This micronutrient-rich enzyme exfoliating gel 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.
And finally, hair…I’m a true believer that a healthy scalp leads to healthy strands. This scalp and hair serum kind of does everything in tandem. It’s really great on super dry ends and works in just a few days.
Oh, it’s the holidays and nothing says I ❤️ you less than buying her pots and pans. That’s why we visited Chicago’s Daytime to share some gifting ideas for those of all ages! And we’ve even got some cozy comfy stocking stuffers too.
Fragrance is for everyone and the most bought gift! There’s a reason why you see so many fragrance gift sets this time of year, it’s the season for restocking. In fact, most people not only buy for those they love but also pick up for themselves since these deals only happen this time of year. Good Girl has consistently been the go-to scent for two years in a row. Not only because it smells so sexy but my gosh DID YOU SEE THE BOTTLE! THAT SHOE!
Carolina Herrera Good Girl EDP 3pc Set PRICE: $126 SHOP: @Nordstrom Both freshly light and moodily dark, this innovative fragrance captures a woman’s wondrous complexity with surprising and exceptional ingredients. The sweet, alluring qualities of jasmine give Good Girl its brightness and femininity. The darker side of Good Girl is created with richly fragrant cocoa and intoxicating tonka. Almond and coffee bring Good Girl its immediate vibrancy. Tuberose, extracted in a new way that creates a rich delicacy, its the fragrance’s wild card, bringing fluidity and femininity. Good Girl exemplifies the effortless elegance and wit of the House of Herrera. The ultimate femme fatale fragrance with sensual jasmine and seductive tonka. It’s so good to be bad. A three-piece set featuring the floral scent of Good Girl Eau de Parfum in full and travel sizes and a leg elixir, too.
For the stocking and ME: If you’re like my family, all that goes in the stockings are necessities.
