Packing Pretty

Some people love it, most hate it = Packing!!! When summertime comes around, it seems like we are always on the go. Whether it is a week-long getaway to a tropical paradise, or an annual trip to visit family, packing properly always proves to be the ultimate diva Sudoku puzzle.

Here are some simple, yet effective tips to try on for your next get away!!

• Keep Cool When packing deodorant (or lotions), place it in a plastic, sealable bag. Go even further and place it in a travel cooler with cold drinks. This will prevent melting, and the risk of leaking residue onto your fabulous wardrobe!!

• Call Ahead! If your final destination has it, you don't need it! Most hotels provide you with the basic shampoo and soap! By not packing these bulky, generic items, you will have more room for your anti-aging creams, and root-lifting mousse! Also, Blow-Dryers...leave them at home! 

• Pick a Neutral When packing clothing, it is difficult to narrow down the options, as well as jewelry to match. By picking a neutral, such as a cream or gray, you can easily match colors that coordinate. Sticking with a neutral will also slim down jewelry choices limiting you to silver or gold. By sticking with this rule, each outfit is sure to be stunning! 

• Essentials All the excitement of getting away for a few days, often leads us to neglect the essentials! Don't leave the house without:

   

• Sunglasses
• Contacts/Glasses
• Cell phone charger
• Toothbrush
• Sunscreen (Rodan & Fields Essential SPF)
• Lip Balm with Sun Protection (Rodan & Fields Lip Shield)
• Hair Brush
• Daily Vitamins/Medications
• Socks

Remember this summer, whether your vacation is on a tropical cruise, or just a relaxing day at the lake, to protect your skin against the damaging rays. A bad sunburn can leave you hurting and indoors for days! Allow yourself to enjoy the season by protecting your skin! 

Summer's Best Accessory

TODAY, June 20th, is the first official day of Summer 2012! For many this will be the start of strict diet regimens and grueling workouts to fit into that teeny-weeny bikini, and the wrapping up of Spring cleaning to make room for this season's brightly colored wardrobe. As the sun begins to shine and vacation itineraries are underway, even the most fabulous of Beach Bum Divas often neglects their best ensemble in its peak season...SKIN.

Our face is exposed each and every day, regardless of the temperature, but in this hot season out pour tank tops, short-shorts, and sundresses leaving our epidermis subject to burning and drying, resulting in lasting damage. Like most Summer-Lovers, observing the contrast of my bronzed decolletage against a cream lace camisole brings forth a thrill like no other. This Summer glow does not have to come with the cost of lasting damage and pre-mature aging, however. Rodan +Fields' Essential Sunscreen provides protection, while allowing us to relish in the warmth of summer.

If you are saying, "Well it's too late to worry now, the damage is done..." you are fortunately mistaken! The Reverse line does exactly what the name implies, reverses sun damage.


Do not Avoid Summer 2012! Embrace it with Rodan +Fields!!
