News Alert!! Sunblock is only effective if you reapply it throughout the day as indicated on the directions of practically every SPF product. Unfortunately, we often forget to do this simple task. For those readers who don’t wear makeup OR those amazing makeup-free days, the reapplication of our favorite sunscreen is a simple task that just takes remembering. However, for the days that we have a full face of makeup on, reapplying a traditional lotion based sunscreen is just not an option. CUE: powdered, translucent sunscreens! Continue reading to learn more about two of my favorite SPF products ideal for year-round use.

Last Updated: Summer 2022

It doesn’t take much for me to enjoy the summer as long as I have an endless supply of chilled rosé, a nice pair of sunglasses, a great book or two, grilled seasonal eats, plenty of ice cold beer, good company, and a refreshing place to swim! Okay, maybe that list was a little long, but of all the things I could have asked for […spending June on a yacht off the coast of Croatia, July in the South of France, August in Santorini, perfectly tailored swimsuits, a standing reservation on the water front patio of a quaint, award winning restaurant, gorgeous people fanning me with palm fronds…] my summer essentials seem incredibly reasonable 😉 So whether you are enjoying a typical summer like myself or are lucky enough to be experiencing my fantasy summer abroad – all that time spent galavanting in the water under the warm sun while drinking & eating more than one probably should, is bound to take a toll on our skin. Lucky for me, I’ve found the best beauty products perfect for battling the effects of the summer sun and months of summer fun!
