Kiehl's Super Multi-Corrective Cream SPF 30.

The older I get, the more sun damage I am noticing, especially in the summer as I am spending a lot of time outside. I wear an additional SPF 50 on my skin everyday, but these spots and dark areas are just popping up. No matter how much protecting I do, I turn a golden brown shade as soon as I go outside. And the damage is cumulative; I need all of the help I can get. Kiehl's has taken one of their best selling products, Super Multi-Corrective Cream, and created an additional product to the line up by adding SPF 30 to it. This makes it perfect for day time use. Introducing Kiehl's Super Multi-Corrective Cream SPF 30.

Top 10 Travel Size Beauty Products.

I've been traveling quite a lot lately, and being summer, I'm betting that a lot of you have been taking some vacation time as well. I hope you are anyway. I've gotten pretty good at packing because my husband does not like it when I check a bag. So it's 3 fl oz and under for me when I travel when it comes to my beauty lotions and potions. So, I might have to sneak some of my things into his little perfectly sized travel bag, yeah, yeah because I do bring a lot. But I have definitely found some perfectly sized travel beauty products that I wanted to share just in case you needed a little help.

In case you are unsure of the airline rules, here they are according to the tsa.gov website:

3-1-1 for carry-ons. Liquids, gels, aerosols, creams and pastes must be 3.4 ounces (100ml) or less per container; must be in 1 quart-sized, clear, plastic, zip-top bag; 1 bag per passenger placed in screening bin. The bag limits the total liquid volume each traveler can bring.

One great place to start is the little maze you head down before checking out in store at Sephora. This little section is filled with great cubes of travel sized beauty products in the perfect sizes for traveling. I find these to be much more generous than the sizes you get in the trial size aisle of the mass or drugstores. These are usually full 3 oz sized products (what the TSA allows in your 1-quart sized bag, see above).

I also sometimes order things from 3floz.com. This shop exclusively carries travel sized products and they have a lot of different brands.

Best travel size beauty products to fit into your 3-1-1 tsa friendly bag!

Best Skincare from Nordstrom Anniversary Sale.

So, I'm not done shopping the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale yet. That means I am not done sharing my best picks either. A few of my top ten anniversary sale picks have sold out, which include a few of my favorite makeup picks from the sale as well. Maybe the skincare items aren't as popular; they are with me! Many of the brands are offering some really nice values here. There are super sizes and many sets of popular products grouped together. This is when I stock up on things like my favorite Philosophy Purity Cleanser and it's when I always tell my friends to spurge and grab a Clarisonic Skin Cleansing System if they don't have one.
