I have never been much into watches until I was introduced to CASIO’s new Baby-G Marine Resort Collection. Baby-G is a great every day wear watch in three neon colors such as aqua, lemon yellow and patriotic red, white, and blue. Baby-G is 100M water resistant making it a great poolside or beach accessory.
This 100M water resistant and shock resistant watches come equipped with everything and more you could ever want from a watch. With such features as world time in 29 zones/ 27 cities (see what other countries are up to), 4 alarms ( you will never be late again lol), a stop watch and 12/24 hour time formats you can keep track of everything just by looking at your wrist.
Each watch also comes equipped with neon illuminator backlight that highlights luminous paint so you can see it even at night. Being a hairdresser, my hands are constantly being thrashed by water, color, or other chemicals that when I wear my Baby-G watch I don’t have to worry about it not working or getting broken. Plus turquoise has always been my favorite color so I wear my watch even if it doesn’t match my outfit. ( I am a little on the peculiar side LOL)
Baby-G watches retail at $120 and are available at department stores like Macy’s and Bloomingdale’s. You can even find them online at www.baby-g.com

Women especially hate their stretch marks in the summer. Stretch marks can result from, weight gain, pregnancy or the growth spurts the body has during adolescence. And, most women have them. Sometimes they fade. Sometimes they don’t. The best option to hide stretch marks during summer is to “ get a head start”and start working on those stretch marks as soon as possible and be sure to keep it up during summer. Apothederm Stretch mark Cream reinforces the skin’s support structures and helps to visibly repair existing stretch marks. The fast-absorbing lotion is formulated with patented SmartPeptide™ technology and helps build collagen while reducing the stretch marks, all while smoothing your skin’s texture. You’ll love the way it smooths the skin.
At the beach or on the boat, when wearing a swimsuit, no one wants to find a stray hair anywhere it doesn’t belong! The “Dream Waxers Cherry Wax on the Go Kit” is handy enough to drop into your weekender bag and take along with you. It contains a jar of great smelling Cherry Dream Wax, Dream Waxers sheets, Cherry Dream Clean Lavender and Peppermint essential oil for pre and post waxing, wooden waxing sticks and it all comes in a cute travel bag.
The sand, chlorine, salt water and sun can really mess up your hair in the summer months. proTENAJ Style Inflection Miracle Leave-In Potion works on all hair types, fine, curly, & coarse. It is multi-functional, defines curls, eliminates frizz, adds shine, and protects from heat. It is a vegan formula made with certified organic ingredients. It’s great for summer humidity damage because it’s humidity resistant!
Flip flops, dry skin, beach sand, salt water, chlorine and just plain lack of attention can be tough on summer heels and feet. Dionis Sole Soother Pink Peppermint 100% Natural Heel Repair Stick is an excellent product for dry and cracked heels and it can also be used on the elbows and knees. It’s 100% natural and leaves no greasy residue so you can slip right back into your flip flops and sandals.
Sunburned skin is not beautiful, ever! It’s a huge No! No!

Reflect skin care moisturizer cream is enhanced with antioxidants and anti-inflammatory ingredients that provide powerful protection Fortified with Certified Organic Aloe Vera, Hyaluronic Acid, Grape Seed Extract.

This coconut water mist is packed with potent antioxidants and essential minerals that will leave you feeling refreshed on hot summer days.
