Summer Beauty

July 15, 2020

It’s getting hot out there and it’s time for cotton dresses, flip flops and wide-brimmed hats. Summer means shedding a few layers and showing some skin. But it’s important to keep that skin, as well as your hair, protected from the sun.

Summer Beauty

I’ve rounded up my favorite skincare, beauty and haircare products that are sure to keep your body protected and hydrated all summer long. Instead of sweating, you’ll glow!

Skincare

[show_shopthepost_widget id=”4099229″]

Shiseido Benefiance Wrinkle Smoothing Day Cream SPF 23

This product was suggested to me during a hydrafacial at Sephora and I’ve been using it ever since. The scent and texture are luxurious, it just glides onto the skin.

Tatcha Silken Pore Perfecting Sunscreen Broad Spectrum SPF 35 PA+++

I treat this like a primer. This cream is light and it serves as the perfect canvas for a flawless summer face.

Caudalie Beauty Elixir

The Beauty Elixir from Caudalie is one of my favorite beauty products. Period. I have several bottles all over my house and I always keep a small bottle in my purse. It is so refreshing. Pro tip: Use it during and after a flight. You can thank me later.

Haircare

Bumble and Bumble Hairdresser’s Invisible Oil Heat & UV Protective Primer

You protect your skin from the sun’s harmful rays, why not protect your hair? I find that when I consistently use this spray before I heat style my hair my color lasts longer.

Ouai Texturizing Hairspray

This spray is light enough that it doesn’t weigh down your hair or make it crunchy. It provides just enough hold for those beachy waves.

Bumble And Bumble Hairdresser’s Invisible Oil UV Protective Dry Oil Finishing Spray

Finish your look off with this luxurious spray which not only protects your hair, it gives it a summery sheen.

FRESH Sugar Lip Balm Sunscreen SPF 15

This is a product that I keep coming back to. It keeps my lips exfoliated and hydrated. It also protects them from the sun which is something that can often be overlooked. 

[show_shopthepost_widget id=”4099252″]

IT Cosmetics CC+ Cream with SPF 50+

I received a sample size tube of this and it has lasted me weeks. A little goes a very long way. Though it provides sheer coverage, this CC cream neutralizes redness while giving me a sun-kissed glow. 

[show_shopthepost_widget id=”4099253″]

Tom Ford Cream and Powder Eye Color in Reflection

I love cream eyeshadows but have had little luck finding one that doesn’t crease. Though this formula isn’t perfect, if I apply it over a thin layer of CC cream it stays put better than any other cream shadow I’ve tried. 

Bonus Points

[show_shopthepost_widget id=”4099259″]

Hydracy Water Bottle with Time Marker

If I’m dehydrated, my skin is dehydrated and no amount of makeup will help me out. I’ve shared my love for this water bottle before. It really helps me to stay up on my water intake.

[show_shopthepost_widget id=”4099261″]

Esarora Ice Roller

Ideally you should keep your beauty products in the fridge but this stays in the freezer. After washing and drying my face I run this roller all over, paying particular attention to under my eyes. It gets rid of any puffiness and it’s very refreshing on a hot day.

[show_shopthepost_widget id=”4099262″]

Eugenia Kim Sunny “Do Not Disturb” Hat

Why not employ fashion to help protect yourself against the sun’s harmful rays? This cheeky hat is a staple in my beach bag! 

So there you have it. These are my essential summer beauty products that I always have with me for any beach day or warm weather getaway. What are some of your favorite summer beauty products?

What it’s Like to Have a Miscarriage

To my favorite co-pilot, Alex. Being a girl dad to To my favorite co-pilot, Alex. Being a girl dad to Arielle and Aurora isn’t for the faint of heart, but you handle the beautiful, loud, and fiercely pink chaos of our lives like a professional. 

Thank you for hauling the ungodly amount of luggage, negotiating with toddlers like a seasoned diplomat, and keeping the travel itinerary moving forward while I secure the champagne.

Happy Father’s Day to you, and to all the adventurous dads out there whose idea of a wild weekend seamlessly transitioned from late nights downtown to navigating strollers across historic cobblestones.

Cheers to the guys who carry the weekender bags, embrace the grit, and still know how to make the ride an absolute blast.

Taking Aurora to her very first movie theater experience to see Toy Story 5 at @showcaseus Woburn was everything. 

From the exclusive merch (those blankets and thermoses!) to the luxe seats and the post-movie arcade games, Showcase makes the whole day feel like an event. We laughed, (I cried), we ate way too much popcorn, and we definitely made some core memories.

And because a chic mom loves a brilliant perk: you absolutely need to jump on Showcase’s “See Three and Go Free” promo this summer. Their Starpass program is completely free to join, and if you see three movies between now and August 31st (and grab three snacks or drinks—because obviously, we are getting the collectible popcorn buckets), you score a free movie ticket to use between September 1st and November 1st. Consider your next rainy/super hot day activity or parent escape handled. 🍿✨

If you haven’t visited The Mount yet, consider this your sign to pack up the car and head to the Berkshires.

Edith Wharton designed this estate herself, and walking through it feels like stepping into one of her novels—if her novels featured a modern mom chasing two girls through a perfectly manicured French garden. 

It is dripping in architectural elegance, but it never feels stuffy. It’s the perfect blend of historic sophistication and wide-open spaces for the kids to explore. Plus, there is nothing quite like showing your daughters the physical legacy of a woman who completely owned her story (and her style).

Tell me in the comments: If you were building your Gilded Age dream home, are you demanding the two-story library or the sunken Italian garden? 📚🌿

Motherhood in the little years is a beautiful, cha Motherhood in the little years is a beautiful, chaotic, and wonderful whirlwind. 

Between the endless scheduling and the sheer energy it takes to keep everything running, it is so easy to overlook the small, unscripted moments that make this chapter so brilliant.

We talk a lot about the milestones, but what about the spontaneous living room ballet recitals? The architectural pillow forts that take over the living room? The fact that my wardrobe is now routinely critiqued by two tiny fashion directors who strongly advocate for more sequins or that while I might want chocolate ice cream at the pretend Gelateria in my yard I instead get handed a flavor called “Rainbow Chocolate Pink”?

These are the unplanned perks. The moments that force you to be present, laugh a little louder, and remember that life doesn’t have to be perfectly tidy to be incredibly beautiful.

These are the Blink-and-You-Miss-It Moments I’m fiercely clinging to as a mom to two little girls who I love more than anything.

What is your favorite unplanned perk of the season you are in right now? 

Let me know in the comments. ✨🥂

This video is from 2022—masks on, being so incredi This video is from 2022—masks on, being so incredibly careful because of Covid, but absolutely determined to sing to our Nunny. Today, she would have been 105.

It has been two and a half years since we lost her, and if there is one thing I’ve learned, it’s this: it doesn’t matter how many years a person gets on this earth. Living a remarkably long, beautiful life doesn’t make it one bit easier for the people who have to stay behind and say goodbye.

I still have that immediate, gut reaction to pick up the phone and call her the second something exciting happens in our lives. Arielle just performed at her very first Open Mic, and my first thought was how much I wanted to tell Nunny all about it. Aurora isn’t in this video—she’d make her appearance the following year—and so often, when she hits a new milestone or does something for the very first time, my heart aches wishing Nunny was sitting right there to see it.

The world will truly never be the same without you in it. We love you so fiercely, and we miss you every single day.

Happy Birthday, Nunny. 🕊️🤍

We came for the magnificent elephants and giraffes, but the real plot twist? ‘A Bug’s World.’ I am the first to admit I am not a bug person, but watching the girls completely mesmerized by larger-than-life animatronic insects was unexpectedly fabulous. 

Add in high-flying rescue dogs serving major personality and the beautiful chaos of petting the goats, and this is a full-day adventure you absolutely need to book.

Have you seen ‘A Bug’s World’ yet? Let me know below! 👇
