So, its been really hot in NYC, like insanely hot with tons of humidity. It seems like the last two weeks have hovered around 95 degrees with zero reprieve in sight. I”ve stopped wearing cute clothing in favor of outfits that keep me cool and I certainly stopped wearing full on makeup. But sometimes, parties or events call for makeup.

Best Summer Moisturizer
My skin has been all over the place this summer, from super dry to really shiny. I switched cleansers, amped up my moisturizing with face oils, but at some point when the temperatures kept reaching 90 degrees I had to go for something lighter and with oil control.

LEMONGRASS LOVE || PART TWO
I love ZUM products which are actually from Indio Wild but still, not only are they natural but they smell amazing and the scent really lingers, and for me that’s a good thing. Recently I’ve been obsessed with the scent of Lemongrass and had a hard time finding a summer body wash with that scent, so instead I picked up this bar soap from Indio Wild. Its super moisturizing, smells exactly like lemongrass and is the perfect bar of soap for summer.
