    Multi-Tasking Summer Products on Daytime Chicago

    Summer is the perfect time to enjoy the outdoors and have fun in the sun. To ensure you look cool and stay comfortable while doing so, here are some multi-tasking products that save time without compromising your glow or glam. 

    First off, let’s get your skin protected for all that fun in the sun. You know, I am obsessed with finding clean, clear, non-sticky formulas, and I have found such a ROCK STAR product! Or rather, Block Star! It’s so easy to work with and has kept me and my son’s skin protected in even the Florida SUN!

    Bliss Block Star Sheer Liquid Daily Sunscreen SPF 50
    PRICE: $28.00
    SHOP: @blissworld.com
    Featherlight, 100% mineral daily sunscreen with a silky sheer, fast-absorbing liquid texture that glides on and blends in quickly for a barely-there feel. With 80-minute sweat & water resistance, the formula is unscented and, has no tint, and is nearly undetectable on the skin, so you can SPF every day.
    Bliss products are free of Parabens, Phthalates, and SLS/SLES. Always Clean, Cruelty-Free, + Dermatologist-Tested. B Corp Certified. 

    Summer gives us a whole new reason to grab some new activewear. I mean, it makes us feel more confident at the gym, right? YES, Losano is celebrity adorned, but it’s also sustainable, super sheer for the heat, and incredibly smoothing and chic. 

    Losano
    SHOP: @losano.com
    At Losano, we seek to create beautiful, high-quality products made from sustainable fabrics that are both good for you and for our planet. We are woman founded, we are creators, we are a team, and we are family. Manufacturing in LA is just the beginning. We’ve thought through every aspect of our process to be more mindful. It’s a conscious design for people and the planet!

    We’re talking about activewear, so let’s discuss your sweaty pits! It’s summer, so we bring in the clinical strength. A quick tip: Put it on before bed at night. It works better. 

    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 is made with advanced odor fighters and pH-balancing minerals for incredibly long-lasting protection. Available in Completely Clean, Clean Lavender, and Stress Response.

    This next product is designed for tattoos, and if you have one, you know summer is a time you want to show them off but also protect them from fading and the skin from drying out. This next product has over 22k 5-star reviews, and we tried it out on my sister’s new tattoo, and she is obsessed. 

    Hustle Butter Deluxe
    PRICE: $22.99
    SHOP: @hustlebutter.com
    As moisturizing as it is lavish, Hustle Butter Deluxe is the #1 rated tattoo aftercare product amongst artists with amazing value when tending to both new and older tattoos. 
    It can also be used even if you don’t have tattoos! It’s the ideal addition to your daily skincare routine, providing instant relief to dry skin and leaving skin soft, smooth, and glowing day after day. Cruelty-free, vegan, and made with natural ingredients. The best part? The addicting fragrance smells like a tropical vacation.

    And while we are talking about skincare and LUXURY, I am obsessed with this skin-quenching, heat-activated, clean, waterless moisture bar for your face. 

    OPULUS Beauty Labs Daily Moisturizing Concentrates
    PRICE: $105 (2.5 Months Worth)
    SHOP: @opulusbeautylabs.com
    OPULUS Beauty Labs just launched its Daily Moisturizing Concentrates, comprised of waterless, preservative-free, multi-benefit moisturizing bars. It’s super easy to use. Place two squares into the Activator, add water, press the button, and the ingredients are heated and blended to create a fresh skincare treatment that is warm, lightweight, and packed with a potent dose of vitamins and antioxidants for the best results possible.
    There are three types, each with hydrating properties plus other key benefits: 
    *Brightening with Vitamin C, Vitamin E, Ferulic Acid
    *Soothing & Calming with a quadruple dose of Vitamin B 
    *Clarifying with Azelaic Acid

    Tonya and I both know the beauty of a clip-in pony! It’s the easiest way to guarantee a sleek hairstyle without worrying about what your REAL hair looks like underneath. Plus, it’s so easy to pull back sweaty, oily hair into a pony.

    I’m in the bath:
    Now that you’re in the mood and have the honey-lemon water in hand let’s go soak! Team shower seems to prevail over team bath, but either way, add some eucalyptus to your steam or soak.

  • Top 3 Products for Hair, Face and Body of 2021

    Top 3 Products for Hair, Face and Body of 2021

    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. 

    Kerastase Initialiste Scalp & Hair Serum
    PRICE: $53.00
    SHOP: @Sephora
    Transforms your hair in 7 days. Reduces hair breakage. Illuminates shiny hair. Adds substance to thicken hair. Creates strong hair. Delivers soft hair.
