_here39s-what-you-need-to-feel-and-look-your-best-for-summer-2024.webp "Well of course as we transition into the warmer months, we’re always thinking about feeling our best and moving our bodies more. And regular exercise is essential for not only how we feel physically but how we feel mentally too. Exercise is crucial to maintaining a healthy mind and body, and we are really loving what Planet Fitness is offering as they are all about being the judgement free zone. They have a warm and welcoming environment that just makes it super convenient and easy for you to prioritize your well-being. They have certified fitness trainers that will help you set up a plan to achieve your goals and you’ll get access to more than 2,500 locations across the U.S. and Canada.<br/><br/>The memberships are affordable too and all clubs have brand name cardio and strength equipment, fully equipped locker rooms, flat screen TVs and there’s a free Planet Fitness app that gives you access to hundreds of on-demand digital exercises from cardio, to yoga, strength training and more. Just go right online to planetfitness.com or walk into one of the clubs to sign up.<br/><br/>You’ll not only feel more energized and confident, but you'll also be setting yourself up for a summer filled with positive vibes and a sense of accomplishment.<br/><br/>In addition to SPF, hats and sunglasses, there’s another beauty essential folks should have at the ready as we head into summer, it’s the new BAND-AID Brand Pro Heal Adhesive Bandages.<br/><br/>The latest from the #1 dermatologist recommended BAND-AID Brand, their uniquely designed to give you 60% better healing and help prevent the appearance of scars. They have an advanced hydrocolloid pad that creates an optimal environment for better healing in as early as 48 hours while protecting against dirt, oil, disease, and inflammation. It helps to minimize the formation of a scab while helping to restore the skin barrier, without the need for additional ointment. So just the ultimate skincare essential. They are just as comfortable as a traditional bandage and 100% waterproof – so you don’t have to worry about your cuts and scrapes as you’re running around this summer, in and out of water. <br/><br/>You can find pro heal™ at your favorite retailer like Walmart, Target and Amazon.<br/><br/>Now let’s talk great summer hair. The new Herbal Essences with pure plants essences. A whole bunch of new shampoo and conditioning collections with pure aloe and camellia oil that helps deeply nourish hair while leaving it surprisingly lightweight. Camellia oil is special because it’s a lightweight oil that mimics those found in naturally healthy hair, that instantly absorbs. And the certified pure aloe is handpicked leaf by leaf and carefully extracted to preserve its moisturizing and antioxidant properties. And the two together really help deliver soft, flexible, nourished locks without the weigh down. What we love about Herbal Essences is there’s something for all your needs from frizz control, moisturizing, curl definition or color protection, with the best ingredients.")
