    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.

Plus, we never use ammonia, parabens, mineral oil, or benzophenone. It’s gentle on hair and non-irritating. 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.

    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.

    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!

  • 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.

    Our Coronavirus Test (COVID-19) requires a gentle lower nasal swab to be collected by you in the home. The test kit comes with a UPS next-day air return shipping label to send your sample back to our lab. Your sample is analyzed in our lab using gold-standard RT-PCR/TMA to confirm the presence of SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19. We aim to deliver your result within 24-72 hours of your sample being received in our laboratory.
