***Disclosure: This recipe is sponsored by DataRank and Hidden Valley. As always, all opinions are 100% honest and have not been influenced in any way.*** This time of year, the last thing I want to do is spend hours and hours slaving away in the kitchen. There are much better things to do, like watching the kids play outside on their playground, taking a dip in the pool, or even just walking around my quiet little NE Ohio neighborhood with the family. Cooking? Who has time for that? Not me!
While I may not want to spend hours and hours cooking during the summer months, I still want my family to enjoy from-scratch meals that are made with love. No hot dogs or frozen meals here. That's not how I roll. Of course, even though I prefer making meals myself rather than rely on convenience foods, I love it when I find a recipe that's super-simple and absolutely delicious. A meal that has my entire family licking their plates clean and begging for seconds. Or in the case of my "Bottomless Pit" of a teenage boy, thirds or fourths!

When I am traveling anywhere, there are a few beauty items I carry besides my everyday makeup and hair products. Those would be my flat iron and sun protection products. For the kids, I have travel size sunscreens, but when I use those for myself on my face and neck it leaves my skin so oily and if I want to use my moisturizing or makeup products with it I can't get it to stay on and look good. ColoreScience Sunforgettable Brushes allow me to have an SPF50 protection under my daily beauty products and each colore tube falls within TSA size guidelines for packing.
As for my hair, I tend to travel to warm spots or for date weekend getaways with my husband and I love my flat iron for quick hair fixes. If I need to add a bit of volume, turning under a few sections of my hair with a flat iron accomplishes that in minutes, I also can run it down my hair quickly for a smooth look when the sun or swimming is causing my hair to frizz or to not cooperate.
ColoreScience Sunforgettable Brushes
The ColoreScience Sunforgettable Brushes come in single tubes or a multipack like this set above. You can keep one in your purse, travel bag and bathroom for easy access when you need to protect your skin from the sun. The ColorScience Sunforgettable is a mineral formula and great for any skin tone. I can use this in place of my powder foundation. It is a high proprietary blend of minerals with no fragrances, mineral oil, alcohol or talc. It is a broad spectrum UVA/UVB sunscreen and is waterproof for up to 80 minutes. Just brush on and stay skin safe through the day.
Limited Edition Rose Gold Express Ion Smooth+ from Paul Mitchell
This limited edition style of Ion Smooth+ iron and brush combo comes is a fun finish of Rose Gold. This set is in in honor of the 2015 Big Night Out collection from Paul Mitchell. It's temperature is digitally controlled in an LCD display and heats up to 410 degrees in 60 seconds. The brush is great with even teeth that keeps hair from pulling or tangling.
Having sun protection and a quality flat iron makes your traveling so much easier when they offer effortless and effective results. They pack well wherever you may travel to.
