Watermelon


I have gone through at least six watermelons in the past two weeks.

The sweet, juicy fruit is "mayjah" right now!

And super affordable ... I saw seedless melons here in the Midwest for just $2.99 each!

Whether you prefer wedges or chunks, these orbs pack a nutritional wallop. Watermelon contains more lycopene than even tomatoes!

Plus, munching on melon is a great way to hydrate due to it's high water content!

I prepare my watermelon LA Frutas style, by cutting off both ends and then using a large knife to slice away all the skin and rind. You are left with an elliptical of concentrated watermelon flesh, ready to be sliced and diced as you desire.

Try adding watermelon to salad, grilling it as a side dish or adding it to smoothies.

Kiss My Face Sun Protection


Kiss My Face sent me a few products from their sun care line and have rocked it with this line!

They have created an awesome smelling, paraben free, water resistant spray sunscreen in a totally portable 4oz bottle!

SunSWAT even retains it's SPF after 40 minutes of water play!

I've been spritzing this on my chest, arms and legs before my outdoor workouts and my fair skin has been totally protected.

On my face and neck I've been using the Face Factor SPF 30. Also paraben and fragrance free, as well as water resistant, this product is a MUST for application before you go outdoors this summer! Using sunscreen is one of the most important steps you can take in preventing sun damage and the signs of aging and Kiss My Face makes it easy to do so in a natural way!

After you come in from a day in the sun, give their After Sun Aloe Soother a try! This fragrance free, paraben free dreamy lotion contains jewelweed, yucca and 95% aloe to hydrate and soothe sun exposed skin.
