  • Happy National Beach Day 🏝

    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!

  • Summer Survival Series on Tampa Bay Morning Blend

    Summer Survival Series on Tampa Bay Morning Blend

    I was born and raised in Tampa, so I’m very aware of the heat and humidity this time of year. Some days feel like you’re stepping into a sunny, steam shower when you walk outside. Hair frizzes, skin starts to look thin and sallow, and you’re days start to revolve around getting out of the heat and into the air conditioning. That’s why my friends at Tampa Bay’s Morning Blend asked me to share some of my summer survival tips with their viewers. Take a look below for the products we featured on today’s show. I tried to keep in mind that most of us aren’t super thrilled to be out and about with Covid numbers topping the charts in Florida. That’s why I included some DIY options like the mani and pedi polishes and at home Corona Virus testing. It may be hot as hell outside, but we still want glossy painted toes and to spend time with friends and family in 2021.
