Get Ready for Summer in 3 Steps with EcoTools from Ulta + GIVEAWAY!

Sponsored post by Lunchbox. All opinions are my own.

IMG_8654

It’s time to remix your regimen and get ready for summer in 3 easy steps with some new EcoTools bath accessories from ULTA!

Yes, that’s right! Only 3 steps to get smooth, exfoliated skin, just in time for warm summer weather. It will be bikini weather before you know it and you want to be prepared this year.

As a busy mom of 3, I know that keeping your beauty and skincare routine up to date can be tricky! That’s why I turn to ULTA when I want to know what the top beauty and skincare trends are each season. They consistently have the latest and greatest skincare and beauty products, no matter which season it is. It’s easy to get into a routine when it comes to self maintenance, but what works for the dead of winter might not be the perfect regime for summer weather. Trust me, it’s time to remix your routine, mamas!

Kick things off with my Remix Your Regimen Spotify playlist that I created with a few other bloggers! The best way to get ready for the day, is listening to some music!

Check out the playlist below to see how I’ve mixed things up this spring!

Now that we’ve got the right tunes to jam to, are you ready to mix up your beauty and skincare routine?!

Here’s what you need to get started:

Step 1 – Your Face

ecotool wash clothWash your face with your favorite cleaning cream or cleansing gel like Derma e Purifying Gel Cleanser. Rinse your face with plenty of warm water and EcoTools Smoothing Spa Cloth ($5.99). While this wash cloth is actually meant to use on your body, I like using it on my face because it’s so soft! This wash cloth is made with plush organic cotton that will leave your skin feeling refreshed and glowing. I love this wash cloth because it’s part of EcoTools Pure Complexion line of indulgent spa accessories that have been Dermatologist-tested and are ready to cleanse, smooth and pamper even the most sensitive skin.

Step 2 – Your Body

IMG_8636Before you turn the shower on, use EcoTools DRY Body Brush ($4.99) all over your entire body. (Best to actually be IN the shower or bathtub when you do this treatment, as the brush is quite effective at removing dry skin and you don’t want dead skin cells all over your bathroom floor. BUT PLEASE DON’T GET THE BRUSH WET!) Start with your legs and gently brush upwards in long strokes, always moving in an upward motion. This treatment increases circulation and gently exfoliates skin, prepping it for in-shower shaving or sunless tanning products later.

Don’t have time or patience for dry brushing? That’s ok! You can exfoliate right in the shower. Squeeze your favorite body wash on an EcoTools Bath Sponge ($2.49) or the EcoTools Dual-Sided Body Buff ($1.99) to lather up and exfoliate in one easy step. My favorite thing to use is the EcoTools Bristle Bath Brush ($5.99) with a lavender body wash. It’s easy to get all those hard to reach places and exfoliate too!

 

Step 3 – Your Feet

IMG_8646Don’t forget about your feet! They need some special love and attention too. Scrub those puppies up good with the EcoTools Foot Brush Pumice ($5.99). Start off by cleansing your feet with the soft bristles and a nice tea tree soap to help kill the stink. Once your tootsies are nice and clean, buff your heels smooth with the exfoliating side of the brush. The pumice is made from recycled glass and gently removed calluses and dry skin in seconds. Once your feet are soft, smooth and supple, towel dry and apply your favorite lotion. Now your feet are ready for sandals!

I didn’t think a blanket could change my life bu I didn’t think a blanket could change my life but… it did. 

I’m so glad I decided to give @mybearaby a try. It’s not just another weighted blanket. It’s a lifestyle. The moment I unrolled it, I knew this blanket was different. 

Not only is it 100% organic cotton, it is award winning and has proven positive results. 85% of people reported better sleep after using the Bearaby weighted blanket and I can confirm this is true. 

From the first night with it, I immediately noticed that I fall asleep much faster - no more staring at the ceiling wondering when I’m going to fall asleep. I also noticed I sleep much more deeply and don’t wake up nearly as often which really surprised me. 

Not only that, I feel HAPPY when I wake up instead of that sinking dread feeling I normally have 🥴 Who knew a blanket could fix so many things?!

If you’re a stressed out, anxious mom like myself, do yourself a favor and get this blanket. Will it fix all your problems? No. It won’t do the dishes or fold your laundry. But it will help you sleep better and that will help everything else in life feel a lot lighter. ☺️

Highly recommend these sneakers!!!! Super comfortable, only $50 a pair, and Prime shipping from Amazon. You can’t go wrong.

I finally found a way to keep his name close to me I finally found a way to keep his name close to me every day. 💛 🐢 🌊 

This simple ring from Mint & Lily holds the name of my stillborn son—delicate, beautiful, and deeply meaningful. It’s a small way I get to remember Dylan, honor him, and carry his memory with me in the quiet moments of motherhood.

Custom jewelry like this makes space for the unseen stories so many of us carry. 💔❤️‍🩹

If you’ve ever wanted to wear your child’s name—whether they’re in your arms or in Heaven—this is a beautiful way to do it.

💍 You can customize your own name ring with @mintandlily and wear your love right on your hand.☺️

(My other ring is his birthstone)💚
