3 days ago | thedaleydose.com | Natalie Arroyo Camacho

Is Sun Bum reef safe? It’s a question many beachgoers are asking, especially once they realize their go-to SPF might be harming coral reefs just offshore. While slathering on sunscreen is essential for UV protection, not all formulas are created equal. Many chemical sunscreens containing oxybenzone and octinoxate can damage delicate marine ecosystems. One brand that often comes up as a better alternative is Sun Bum. But does it really live up to the reef-friendly hype?

This makeup for gingers blog post is inspired by one of my best friends! Krissy is a 6’2”-ish redhead powerhouse and has asked me a time or two what is the best makeup for gingers. If navigating the world as a ginger is at all difficult, you’d never know it when it comes to Krissy. She’s probably one of the most confident people I’ve ever met, and her red hair is one of her trademarks. In fact, she has three other siblings, and none of them are redheads.

It’s a tale as old as time: I’ve been dealing with acne since I was 15 years old. After I turned 30, I hoped and prayed that my hormonal acne would vanish, but the hormonal Gods had other plans for me. I’m still dealing with hormonal chin breakouts all these years later. In the search for how to deal with acne problems at 30, I even turned to a medication called spironolactone—which isn’t exactly meant to treat acne.

Eczema is an inflammatory skin condition that can show up as itchy, dry, scaly, or blistering of the skin. Unfortunately, eczema is pretty unpredictable, and it’s been known to flare up as the seasons change. Hot weather in the summer months can be a huge trigger for some people with eczema (thank God for air conditioning). For this reason, you may be wondering how to deal with eczema in the summer or warmer months. The good news is that a little bit of skincare goes a long way.

I’m proud to say that this Versed makeup review is going to be a pretty lengthy one.

Versed is one of the most popular skincare brands at Target. So I was excited to hear that they were coming out with their own clean makeup line.
Best Non-Alcoholic Rosé: A List of the Best 13 Brands

American colors have always been red, white, and blue. Similarly, when discussing wine, you have three color choices: red, white, and pink. (Okay, there are some orange wines, but you get my point.) When I think of red wine, with or without alcohol, I see a lax night at home or maybe a low-key dinner at a dimly lit restaurant. White wine conjures the “lady who lunches” vibe, or maybe a chic coastal grandmother. Pink wine, a.k.a. rosé, gives ultimate cool-girl day-drinking on a rooftop energy.
