July 24th: Happy National Tequila Day
These days there seems to be a “National Day” for just about everything. This one, in particular, is one of my favorites. Today is National Tequila Day! Many may ask why does tequila need its own day. Well, I am here to help! Not only does tequila offer the best health benefits of any alcohol, it is always a good night when I drink tequila.
According to Spright.com,
You know what they say, “a shot of tequila a day keeps the doctor away!”

5 Beauty Products To Try This Summer
Summer is basically here! It is time to pull out your shorts and your sunscreen. As fun as the sun may be, I know a thing or two about how bad makeup can be in the summer. I worked in the direct heat for over 5 summers and as a makeup enthusiast, I had to learn how to not look like a melting cake every day.
Foundation: My favorite summer foundation is It Cosmetics CC Cream with SPF 50+. This is a personal must have for the summer. I originally tried it over spring break this year and I loved how it stayed on all day and didn’t look cakey in the sun. It is a Full Coverage Color Correcting Cream, Anti-Aging serum, plus Broad Spectrum Physical Only SPF 50+ all in one!
Mascara: Maybelline New York Great Lash Waterproof Mascara. This Mascara works wonders and it is only $6 at your local pharmacy or Target/Walmart. Not only is it waterproof, but it gives you fuller lashes without that clumpiness in other mascaras. It goes on so smoothly and is smudge resistant. This is one product that has stood the test of time.
Blush: It Cosmetics CC+ Radiance Ombre Blush. Okay, so I am a little obsessed with It Cosmetics! This blush is just beautiful and gives you that summer glow every girl needs. It is perfect for all skin tones!
Lips: Clinique Chubby Stick Baby Tint Moisturizing Lip Color Balm This chubby stick gives you the perfect color with the right amount of moisture. These sheers bloom on contact to bring out your lips’ natural tone. This is a must have for those summer days where you don’t want to go all the way out with the lips.
Face: It Cosmetics You Sculpted This contouring pallet made contouring so much easier and you can use it anywhere on your body. It was developed with plastic surgeons to mimic real facial contouring and provide a foolproof alternative to fillers. How cool is that? The shades are absolutely beautiful!

The Perfect Gift Ideas for the “Cool Dad”
Let’s be honest: Everyone wants a cool dad! You know the David Beckham type with the fancy clothes and the swag in his step. If you’re anything like me, odds are your dad is nowhere near Beckham. Nonetheless, he is still cool to you (my dad is cooler than ice). Here’s a quick guide on what to get your “Cool Dad” on his special day.
- Pretty much anything from Ben Sherman. I am officially obsessed with this brand! Father’s day can be hard especially if you are tired of buying mugs and ties. Go for something different this year and buy him a nice shirt or a fancy pair of swimming trunks for the hot summer ahead. Sign up for their emails and get 20% off your first order!
- Bruno Magli Shoes. Their spring collection is absolutely perfect for that NYC dad or his Sunday’s best. Bruno Magli has been around for ages and continues to create refined, handcrafted footwear for those who share an appreciation for elegance and impeccable craftsmanship. Get your dad a pair of comfortable loafers or a nice pair of dress shoes for those special days.
3. A stylish STATE Bag for the dad on the go. Who doesn’t love a good backpack? What makes STATE Bags special aren’t their great styles, but the great cause behind it. STATE was created to address the immediate needs of American children living with challenging – and in some cases critical – circumstances. For every STATE bag purchased, STATE hand-delivers a backpack – packed with essential tools for success – to an American child in need; but our commitment goes beyond simply a material donation. Give your dad a great gift while helping out an amazing cause.
