There isn’t a healthy way to tan or get some color. I don’t have to mention the risks of spending too much time basking in the sun or laying on the tanning beds. The only safe tan is a fake one and lucky for all of us – color comes in tubs and bottles.
I am a fan of Lavera Sunless Tanning – Self Tanner Lotion. This natural self tanner works quickly to give you a glow that is natural and visible. No smell and no drying – instead, skin is moisturized, hydrated with a hit of healthy color.
I do not like the artificial smell of self tanning lotions – they smell off. And there’s no other way to …

Summer is officially here and frankly, with everything that happened in the economy and all the uncertainty, having a season where people are generally happier and the mood in the air is relatively lighter and relaxed is much needed.
For all the Summer trips that you guys will be taking, packing sunblock should be one of your prerequisites. And at the end of the day, it’s really not just because UV rays cause wrinkles and brown spots but also because it’s the smart thing to do for your health and quality of life.
I have sensitive skin and whenever the climate changes or when I am stressed, my skin show the first signs of my body’s reaction to my surroundings …

I like being clean and having clean hands is something that I appreciate and try to cultivate especially when I am outside. I wash my hands many times a day and they do get dry from all the harsh soaps out there and they feel tight and peel from time to time.
I first discovered this hand cream by accident years ago, I had severe dry hands and it got to the point where I was peeling flakes off my palms. I was desperately in need of a hand cream and I chanced upon this at the drugstore. And the rest is history.
This is hands down my favorite hand cream. It beats all the expensive ones I have tried over …

Summer brings along with it backyard parties, beaches, shorts, lots of frozen drinks, ice cream and all the fun and debauchery. That said, it’s always my personal rule to have fun with protection – whatever the fun may be .
So it is crucially important to protect your skin from the harmful rays of the sun. And contrary to what some may belief, wearing a sunblock will still give you a tan – just more gradually and with the added assurance that you’ll be protecting yourself from the signs of premature aging – fine lines, wrinkles, saggy skin, pigmentation spots.
I picked up this bottle of sunblock in preparation for Summer and it has served me well. This peachy creamy sunblock works to not …

I love partying – especially the social and drinking aspect of it. More drinking but that’s another story for another time. Summer is here and there is no better season to party than when the weather is warm and the day seems longer.
Smelling good and fresh is fundamental because just like no one likes a smelly shopper, no one likes a smelly party-goer too. But with heat and humidity, even the best of us sweat and don’t smell as good as we should or like.
Hence, I am always interested in grooming products that would enhance my partying experience and when I first heard about Axe Fixers, I was more than ready to give them a try.
Axe Fixers are a new range of …

I wash my hands constantly throughout the day; after picking up after my dog, running errands, making protein shakes etc. It’s the easiest, quickest way to prevent catching a bug like the cold or hand, foot and mouth disease (it can happen to adults too!)
As such, my hands get dehydrated and I am always on the lookout for great hand salves. I picked this up at the store 2 months ago and this is a great balm for your feet and hands before bed and before going about your day.
This rich honey butter absorbs quickly and provides intensive and deep conditioning. Extracts of essential oils, honey and beeswax work harmoniously to nourish, soften and heal dry hands and feet. …

I picked this up at Safeway last year and I have to admit the only reason why I did so was because of the claim of skin luminosity. They had me at radiance. I didn’t think it would do much to make me ‘glow’ and that it was all a marketing ploy. I was however, trying to see if the placebo effect was any more luminescent. It was when I was replying to en email after a shower that I noticed tiny specks of what appeared to be glitter on my arms. I thought it strange because I couldn’t have rubbed against anything glittery (insert obvious joke here) between the 5 mins after the shower. I then realized it was …
