If ever there is a month where you can bare it all, it’s August. Sultry, steamy and HOT; the look is “Effortless Yet Polished”. Here are 4 divine delights to add to your late summer toolkit to get the look now.

Sibu Sea Berry Therapy Exfoliating Face & Body Scrub deep cleans pores, removes dead, surface cells for a radiant shine down the line (try it on your legs for the runway model shin shine). Sustainably sourced Turkestanica Sea Berry is the star ingredient in the SIBU line. Containing over 190 bioactive compounds it thrives in the Himalayan Highlands, and is an unsurpassed source of hard to find Omega 7. I use it as an all over scrub a few times a week. A little goes a long way.

Herbivore Bontanicals Lapis Facial Oil contains Azulene from Blue Tansy, a powerful anti-inflammatory and antibacterial that reduces redness and clarifies the complexion. Jasmine and rose give this premium oil a delightfully divine scent. Add a few drops to your AM Sun Protection and kiss redness goodbye!

In 4 flattering colors to enhance every skin tone plus clear. Soothers pair perfectly with their Soft Eyeliner Pencils.
