First off, I want to start by saying that I loooove Clinique. Seriously, it’s one of my favorite brands and when I tried their Moisture Surge Intense Skin Fortifying Hydrator I was instantly in love, and so was my dry, sensitive skin. If you’ve never tried it, it’s a rich cream-gel that actually has clinical proof to dramatically improve and strengthen the skin’s moisture barrier after just three days of use. Now that’s pretty amazing, as anyone with dry and/or sensitive skin can attest to. The downside? It’s not cheap.

With fall being pretty much here, there are only so many ways you can hold on to summer and, guys, I’m all about the smell of coconuts 24/7. I recently tried mark Crushing On Coconut Hand Cream at a friend’s house and couldn’t stop smelling my own hands. It’s true, I was that weird woman on the couch with her hands in front of her nose for an hour…but I don’t care. This hand cream is only $6 and it’s extra rich, which I love. Get it now so you can hold on to summer, too. #EndlessSummer
