    Get Summer-Ready Skin!

    Get Summer-Ready Skin!

    As the weather heats up it pays to take special care of your skin. The heat and humidity can be stifling, so you have all the more reason to indulge in products to help exfoliate dead cells, combat shine, and revitalize your complexion. Feast your eyes on these easy yet highly effective ways to help keep calm, cool and collected this summer:

    Mélange Apothecary

    This fabulous store has an online presence so anyone can indulge in their home and personal care items no matter where you may live. I tried the Custom Blend Mandarin and Vanilla Shea Butter Revitalizing Lotion, after using the Vanilla Sugar Scrub with Honey and Shea and wound up feeling like I was on a tropical vacation with the softest, best smelling skin ever! I promise that any product you order from Mélange Apothecary will smell wonderful and leave you with a sense of sheer happiness!

    Everyday Minerals

    I am in love with the All Natural Powder Foundation in Beige Neutral by Everyday Minerals. It truly does go on light but gives your skin a very even tone. Some powders look mask-like, even when it's mineral-based, but not so with this gem. The Theme Park Blush, a pinkish coral shade, was also a hit with me. With just the tiniest hint of sparkle, it looks like your cheeks are glowing from within, not like you are a space alien. The prices are great, too! This company was created by a working woman with a husband and two children so she is no stranger to leading a hectic life and wanting to look gorgeous doing it. I applaud you Carina!!

    Sea Breeze

    I remember Sea Breeze from years ago, but now it's even better than ever. Sea Breeze Sensitive Skin Fresh-Clean Astringent contains both clove and eucalyptus oil so it deep cleans your skin without harsh chemicals that can leave it dry or flaky. Put a little on a cotton ball and wipe it all over your face after your normal cleansing routine. You'll see the dirt and other impurities that just cleansing can leave behind! My skin feels fresh and comfortable, not tight, after application, the way some astringents have a tendency to leave it.

    Use these products to help you look and feel your best this summer. Glowing skin is by far our best beauty accessory. It's possible to enjoy warm weather without wilting like a spent flower! Remember, beautiful skin is always in!

    Yours in Beauty,
