Daylight Savings Time - it always catches me by surprise but this year I refuse to be ill prepared. Here are a few simple hacks that I hope make this transition more tolerable for everyone.
1. Sleep! Prep accordingly and get to bed an hour early to help ease the rush of the morning. If you aren’t currently using a sleep app - try one! I like the SleepCycle app but the last iPhone update included a more comprehensive sleep tracker that works just as well.
2. Simplify your morning regime. If its not obvious by now, I am a “less is more” kind of woman so my day and night routines are pretty minimal but here’s a simple change that can help simplify your morning. Skip the morning cleanse. Blasphemy? Maybe, but honestly, how dirty can your face get overnight? In lieu of the morning scrub I have been using a quick swipe of the classic medicine cabinet staple, Thayers Rose Petal Facial Toner. Super quick, wakes up the skin and preps for moisturizer/sunscreen/what have you.
3. Multi-tasking products. I consider myself a collector of this next product, the colors are vibrant and buildable and even better they are perfect to toss in your bag for a mid day touch up. The RMS LIP2CHEEK works as a blush, lip, cheek stain and hydrator. It’s created with nourishing organic ingredients and each shade can go from a sheer to saturated stain depending on your morning mood.
