There you have it, Natalie without the bangs. Classic wet hair, pulled back, and bold brow. But today’s focus isn’t about Baywatch…it’s about feeling the part, without all that damage to your skin under those harsh rays. No matter how much I love the sun, I still wrap my head up in a scarf when I’m laying out by the pool with a gigantic bottle of sunblock in hand. The only thing we can do is protect our skin and renew it. There are still so many beaches I’ve yet to visit…which means more products to stuff in my suitcase.

You have may gotten a sneak peek inside my skincare routine at my Sephora FACEBOOK LIVE, but here here is how I keep my skin extra soft on any surf escape beyond the classic bottle of sunscreen.

#1 Dr. Jart+ Cicapair Tiger Grass Color Correcting Cream: this green cream immediately hides redness and soothes it. It’s extra thick so you only need a tiny bit to dab onto your face the morning after a day in the sun. Your even skintone will thank you.

#4. First Aid Beauty Purifying Mask: red clay is amazing for cleansing your pores. This peel-off mask detoxifies and immediately draws out your impurities. I use this a ton when I’m traveling or after a long photoshoot.

#5: Aveeno Clear Complexion Daily Moisturizer: my boyfriend introduced me to this drugstore product and I became obsessed. It really works. I normally don’t use acne treatment products because it would dry out my skin (causing more acne eeek!) but this one is so light and gentle. It’s hydrating but still keeps you less shiny with really clear skin. I love this product.

I have been using Jergens ever since I was a little girl. And I am one to shower and moisturize my entire body right afterwards. Being someone who loves the sun, who loves to swim, and be really active no matter what season it is, I take moisturizing my whole body really seriously. Focusing on the neck, legs, arms, and chest! For me, my mornings begin with a quick check at my Instagram, turning on NY1 on my TV so I can hear the news, get my coffee machine going…and hop in the shower.

I’ve just discovered the new Jergens Wet Skin Moisturizer, and I am seriously obsessed. After you shower, just apply it to your already wet skin before you towel dry. No need to rinse it off (it won’t go down the drain- the moisturizer immediately sinks into your skin, and it really works. It’s my life saver, and my legs and arms have never been so smooth and hydrated. Plus, it’s saves me a ton of time before I leave the house, after the gym, or right before bed. You get 2x the moisture in half the time. I even prefer brushing my teeth in the shower, let alone moisturize! I am currently using the Nourshing Monoi – and it keeps my skin baby soft. But you can also get Jergens Wet Skin Moisturizer with coconut oil, and calming green tea oil. I got all 3 depending on my mood! Showering has never felt this good. Soak it up ladies.

Growing up as a model, I’ve come to realize that your skin needs that extra care, just like everything else in your life. And it glows when you take care of it. Like lathering on sunscreen even in the wintertime, replacing that wine glass with a bottle of water, or trading in daily nights on the dance floor with that extra hour or two of beauty sleep. But right now, I am all about this amazing product I have just added to my beauty routine to make up for times I’ve slipped on my beauty routine: Cover FX Custom Infusion Drops. Right now they have 4 different drops that target different skin issues: C+ Lemongrass for radiance, E+ Chamomile for calming, F+ Neroli for hydration, and what I’m using now, A+ Jasmine for Anti-Aging. Before and after getting on a flight, I leave my skin completely makeup free, and apply the Cover FX Infusion Drops. One drop is a powerful boost of essential vitamins and oils that can even be mixed with whatever cream or makeup you already use. I like to use it before applying sunscreen and a tab of concealer. I gravitate to these fresh scents, so it not only relaxes me before I start the day, or go to bed, but it smoothly seeps into my pores and leaves my skin with a glossy finish. I couldn’t think of a better winter skin saver at the moment. Something so powerful with just one little drop. Just what the doctor ordered.
