Seattle Summertime Glam Inside Out
Summer beauty isn’t just about makeup and stress-free hairstyles, we also find ourselves layered in sunscreen with a focus on getting outdoors and breaking a sweat. July started our STG beauty tour and I got to visit my good friends at New Day Northwest and share some of my favorite ways to glam form the inside out!
Let’s start off with sunscreen or sunblock. More and more studies are revealing the ingredients in chemical sunscreens are proving harmful to 
reefs and our environment and potentially even us. Physical sunblocks are now the go-to when looking for protection and an option for sensitive skin. My favorite by far is TiZO 3 I wear daily. It servers as SPF 40 with antioxidants C & E and works as a lightly tinted primer that you can wear under your makeup or alone. It keeps protected and makeup in place all day.

Sweaty pits are never fun or glamorous and last month I got to watch the very funny Joe Gorga from RHONJ get MiraDry in NYC which stops sweat, odor and even hair growth FOREVER under arms. At first I was skeptical but then after talking with Joe and the doctor I realized we only expel 2% of our toxins from that region and once we treat the area we don’t start sweating in weird places after. All the important questions were asked and now I’m super excited because when I return to NYC next week I’m going to get MiraDry…
MiraDry
It’s actually pretty simple. The miraDry ® system uses energy that targets and destroys the sweat and odor glands in your underarm. Once those glands are destroyed they do not grow back—so once they are gone, they are gone for good.
This next company is Seattle based and utilizes genetic testing to figure out what your body is pre-disposed to for weight, sleep, happiness, disease… you name it. Arivale only locates the coding of things you can change to live a healthy and happy life. With the program you get a dietician and a coach to help you make the tweaks to live the healthiest life from the inside. People feel like they have received an owner’s manual to their body.
Personal story:(So far I’ve learned that carbs are not my problem but rather high fats. I’ve started focusing on eliminating the high fatty foods from my diet (not the carbs) and I lost 12 pounds since January. Crazy, all these years I was on the wrong diet for my body. Arivale is like a lens into your body.

DefenAGE Clinical Power Trio
Most people skip heavy creams and retinols for the summer season in fear they will make skin too sensitive in bright sun. DefenAge has become one of the most talked about new skincare systems from beauty editors to chatter in doctor’s offices. Instead of using retinoid or plant or derived animal stem cells, the DefenAge system sparks up your body’s own stem cells to work in just 6 weeks on tone, texture, pore size, wrinkles. All of this in three steps that allow you to skip acids and harsh ingredients. DefenAge is changing the entire strategy of how we will approach skin care. Instead of trying to peel or smooth from the outermost layer of skin, we will now use a cream that absorbs and delivers results by working with your skin to get results from the inside out. It’s truly brilliant.

We all tend to walk a bit farther or workout a bit harder in the summer months and that leads to aches and pains. We all know the magical benefits of CBD balms for healing and soothing however, some are super thick and can be quite smelly. These new roll-ons come in three super fresh and natural scents and are super- lightweight so you can roll-on and not worry about damaging clothes or a greasy residue. All of course are non-psychotropic. Scents include Lavender, Lemongrass and Original.
