Makeup Meets Skincare

beauty, sun-care

Protecting my skin from the sun is something that is super important to me, so I’m excited to have partnered up with Shiseido for this post to share my most important step (and my secret sun protector for my skin!), my Shiseido Sports WetForce SPF 50+ BB cream. Many of you already know that I am a very active person and I pride myself on protecting my face. Sun protection is very personal to me because I grew up lifeguarding and coaching swim teams, which meant I was always in the sun. At the pool, I would constantly hear the swim team moms talk about skin cancer and how staying in the shade, wearing hats and applying proper sunscreen is the key to the fountain of youth ... the phrase  "fountain of youth" stuck with me. From that moment on I have been a freak about applying sunscreen and protecting my face. I literally apply sunscreen after I jump out of the shower no matter the weather. It's so second nature at this point and I would feel almost "naked" without it. If you’ve seen any of my skincare posts or videos, you know that I don't play when it comes to protecting my face from the sun. But, looking back now, the only thing missing in my sunscreen was that cover up element. I hated the days where I would have to apply three products because one product didn't have everything I needed. Having a product like Shiseido Sport WetForce SPF 50+ BB cream in my beauty cabinet has really been that "all in one" product for me. It protects while making my skin look flawless. Since I personally do not wear a lot of makeup, having a product that looks natural and provides amazing coverage is a total home run for me. Sweating is a huge part of my job and I love how the BB cream boosts UV protection when exposed to sweat or water (THANK YOU)!! There is nothing worse than being outside all day and getting home to a sun burnt face because you forgot to apply your sunscreen while exercising. 

 So remember, just like you take care of your body, you should take care of your skin, too! It's our largest organ in our bodies, so don't forget how important protecting it is! Eat yo greens, get sleep, drink water, and add some Shiseido Sports BB WetForce SPF 50+ to your daily sun-care routine!
