May 2015 Favorite Things

I have been a real slacker lately...I mean here it is July and I'm just now writing a post for May.

ugh I'm a slug


It is that time of year when mosquitoes descend upon us and give large welty like bites.  Here is my favorite bug spray:

Avon Skin so Soft 
This stuff is great
You put this on after you get out of the shower and voila!  You have soft skin and the bugs don't like it so they stay away.  Plus you don't smell wonky.  Win Win Win. 

I of course have an Avon rep so if you are interested, please let me know and I will send you her contact info.  

Sunscreen:  I have recently discovered matte sunscreen for your face.  Why hasn't this been a thing before?

Coola:

Coola = Coolist! 





This is great stuff.  It has a slight tint but really not much.  I am new to  this brand so I'm still learning about it. 

I also love NOT USING A HAIR DRYER!

Just say no


This is the greatest time of year.  I hate drying my hair.  After I shower, I wrap it up in a towel while I get ready.  Then I simply brush is and either leave it be or braid it.  If I am going to work, I might might might dry the roots for about 1 minute.  This is also a good time to deep condition your hair so that it has some actual benefits.  


April 2015 Favorite Things




It is finally feeling like Spring!  That means fun weekend field trips with great friends.

Spring is also a great of year to revamp your skin care routine and make sure that your makeup is the right shade.  My skin changes seasonally and now it is a greased up disaster.  I have started using a different skin care routine and wearing less make up.  Most days it is just concealer, loose powder, mascara and gloss.  I always have gloss.  Never question that.  If for some weird reason I don't have any on hand I will purchase some.  I just can't go on without it.


What is one item that you MUST  have at all times?
