    End of Summer Self-Care on Daytime Chicago

    The kids are heading back to class, and it’s time to take a deep breath. You’ve got all the back to school essentials for them, and now its time to take care of YOU! 

    Now, let’s just say not EVERYONE is getting a break from the kiddos when school starts. Let’s once again give a shout-out to our teachers!

    While you’re at the drugstore, go ahead and grab a mask, momma. These face masks by Burt’s Bees are some of my favorites and such a deal at $2.99. I’m obsessed with the Calming Sheet Mask with Rose. It seriously takes my whole being down a notch.

    If taking a break for a mask isn’t your jam, we got you covered. You just need a dose of Vitamin C (Tonya’s fave) to brighten up the summer’s damage. I brought on Lumene’s SPF a while ago and we ooohh and awed. Now, let me introduce you to the Valo Artic Cocktail. She’s even so pretty to look at!

    Let’s talk CLEAN MAKEUP! Color cosmetics have a reputation for being straight-up toxic. Plastics and harsh dyes and fragrances were something that we simply never knew about until brands started pointing out what they WEREN’T putting in their formula. These next two brands are uber clean and deliver product after product without compromising any GLAM! 

    If you haven’t seen ILIA on your social media feed, then you simply aren’t on social media. Their C Beyond Triple Serum has an SPF 40 and rocks one of the cleanest and enviro-friendly formulas and the Limitless Lash Mascara is truly a game changer.
    Brand Philosophy  Skincare-Powered Makeup PERFORMANCE DRIVEN. EFFECTIVE. SAFE. THIS IS THE HEART OF CLEAN BEAUTY. We are carving out a new path in beauty, by balancing safety with product performance. We dare to ask how products are made and choose clean, effective ingredients that work. With roots in organic bases, vivid color, and active botanicals, its makeup infused with skincare. Being mindful that not every natural ingredient is good for the skin, nor is every synthetic bad. It usually requires a combination of both to achieve a truly exceptional product.
