LET ME “SUMMER-IZE” THIS BLOG FOR YOU, LOL!

TIPS TO LOOK TAN, CHIC AND SLEEK ALL SUMMER LONG!

We’re in countdown mode for the official kick off to summer! It’s June 21st, only 15 days away. So to get us looking as summery as we’re starting to feel, I’ve been road testing everything from face serums with built in SPFs to a device that claims to obliterate cellulite once and for all (minimize is probably a better choice of words really, but obliterate has so much more flair).  So let me “summer-ize” these 6 tips to help glam us up for everything from summer barbecues to beachy escapes.

GET THESE 6 SUN LOVING PRODUCTS ON YOUR RADARS:

LA ROCHE POSAY ANTHELIOS AOX DAILY SPF 50
WHAT IS THIS? IT’S A DAILY USE ANTIOXIDANT FACE SERUM WITH SUNSCREEN
PRICE: $42.50 SHOP: CVS + Drugstores Nationwide


WHY DO WE NEED THIS FOR SUMMER? This is the lazy girl’s guide to getting a powerhouse strong SPF on your face. It’s the 1st daily antioxidant face serum with sunscreen built into it that I’ve ever heard of. Leave it to La Roche Posay to crack the code on how to combine the two. So what you’re looking at is a broad spectrum SPF 50 protection AND a high-potent antioxidant complex (the serum part). Together they helps visibly improve the appearance of fine lines, dark spots and skin texture. AOX Daily SPF 50 decreases the risk of early skin aging caused by the sun. It’s a total breakthrough in texture and a fantastic way to stream line you morning beauty routine plus save time and money too. TIP: A key to sun protection is to reapply so but sure to pack this bottle with you for periodic reapplications.

The serum-like texture of LRP Anthelios AOX SPF 50 is what’s so unique. It’s not thick like a traditional SPF and won’t weigh your skin down nor leave that white, ashy coating over your complexion!

NATURE LAB TOKYO
WHAT IS THIS: CAN AN APPLE & ALGAE A-DAY PROTECT HAIR COLOR AND SCALPS THIS SUMMER?PRICE: $12-$16 SHOP: amazon.com/NatureLab

That’s the Volume Perfecting Texture Mist In my hand! I LOVE how it quickly adds oomph and lift to the crown of my hair and protects my color from fading with the algae extract infusion.

WHY DO WE NEED THIS FOR SUMMER? It’s not just Apple (Stem Cells) but also Grape and Bamboo stem cells that are changing the face of haircare – pun intended. NatureLab Tokyo Perfect Haircare Collection is a brand new haircare line from Japan that was specifically formulated for the United States. What caught my attention is how they’re re-inventing the wheel w/ the way formulated their shampoos, conditioners, masks and leave in and styling products by infusing ingredients I’ve normally only tracked in skincare products for their anti-aging benefits. The stem cells help repair damaged hair and increase resistance to future damage. While the Algae extract delivers a powerful UV protection, shielding hair from color fading light. So, no matter your hair type, you can find products that work for you and keep your hair protected in the summer! All products are cruelty free, as well as free of sulfates, parabens, phthalates, gluten, mineral oil and other harmful ingredients.

VITA LIBERATA BODY BLUR SUNLESS GLOW
WHAT IS THIS: BODY MAKEUP AND SELF TANNER IN ONE TUBE!
PRICE: $45   SHOP:  Ulta Store + Ulta.com


WHY DO WE NEED THIS FOR SUMMER? Vita Liberata Body Blur Sunless Glow  is a multi-tasking instant body makeup that perfects skin, gives a natural looking tint for the body, and reflects light for a photo-ready finish. AND NOW they added in a self tan feature. This lasting tan lotion is awesome for softening the appearance of veins and small scars for a flawless skin finish and lasting tan. How it works is really simple: the self tan develops underneath the body makeup, which once washed off reveals a lasting tan. It makes sense right? We use foundation to even out our skin on our faces. So why not do something comparable on our bodies? The other thing I’m loving about the brand, is it’s certified organic with tons of natural extracts for anti aging, skin enhancement. It has a natural “Moisture Locking System” for 72 hours of skin hydration and utilizes light reflecting particles to minimize the appearance of blemishes and skin imperfections.

NuBODY BY NuFACE
WHY DO WE NEED THIS FOR SUMMER? IF YOU ARE IN A CONSTANT, QUIET BATTLE WITH YOUR CELLULITE – THIS NEW DEVICE MIGHT BY YOUR SUMMER SALVATION!
PRICE: $399 SHOP: mynuface.com


WHAT IS THIS: NuBODY helps achieve what nutrition and exercise alone cannot. Really? Because, frankly I’m at my wits end trying cellulite minimizing creams and potions. When I read this I was like “Oh really? I’m all ears tell me more!” This device features their exclusive Micro-4 Technology and is designed to visibly help tone and firm body skin, while providing a more contoured silhouette.The NuBODY skin toning device is specially engineered with four treatment spheres that synergistically work together to deliver a powerful, yet gentle flow of targeted microcurrent to the larger, denser areas of the body, smoothing away the look of dimpled, uneven skin. Use it wherever you feel bleh! Think: Upper Arms, Abs, Buttocks, Front + Back Thighs, Inner + Outer Thighs. I just began using it on the backs of my legs and booty and I noticed an improvement after the first go around. As far as how often do you use it? Use if 5 minutes a day per treatment area. For the first 60 days use it 5 times per week. After 60 days use 2-3 times per week to maintain results. Use long slow glides with medium pressure.

Using the NuBody 5 days a week for 2 months lead to these awesome improvements in this person’s stomach region! Wow amazing!
