JULY 2025
Happy July! Summer is here, the suitcases are packed, and my family and I are headed to Coronado, truly one of my ultimate favorite vacation destinations. Beach days mean taking my body care rituals up a notch. It’s perfect timing because we just added a new body care brand to our shelves and I could not be more excited about it. Tronque is a science-backed body line that’s rewriting the rules of clean luxury and transforming the body care space with an incredible collection of truly transformative, face-grade body treatments. So this month’s favorites lean heavily into skin-loving, vacation-ready essentials. Pair these fun body innovations with a few makeup and fragrance upgrades and you have my full summer toolkit. Let’s dive right in.
This super hydrating and ultra luxurious lightweight oil floods skin with two forms of stable vitamin C, red maple bark, and squalane, leaving every inch of your body feeling silky, looking bright, and visibly firmer. This has quickly taken place as my new holy grail body oil. If you know me, you know that I LOVE a super hydrating body oil and I take my full body moisture rituals very seriously. I slather myself both day and night. I always massage it in post-shower for an unreal glow that looks airbrushed in natural light. It has a super delicate yet luxurious scent that feels elevated but never overpowering, and the formula itself is next level. Powered by a revolutionary biotech lipid complex and patented ceramides, this oil helps improve elasticity, plump the skin, and restore a youthful glow. It’s like a face-grade treatment for your entire body and I’m excited to continue using it all summer to see the brightening effect it has on my skin tone over time.
Think of this as velvet for the body. My body ritual is always a two to four step affair… usually some exfoliation first, a serum and light hydration next, a sumptuous oil, and then a rich cream or lotion. This milk is Tronque’s bestselling product and rightfully so, it’s magic. It’s a super light opalescent milky lotion that cocoons skin in peptides, ceramides, and hyaluronic acid to firm, sculpt, and visibly tone while delivering deep moisture. Think toned and tightened, smoothed cellulite, and a lifted silhouette that will have you feeling confident whether you’re going to the beach, hanging by the pool, or just wanting to feel better in your own skin. What I love about Tronque as a brand is that they’ve done many clinical trials, and this specific formula is proven to refine, lift, and tone the skin while targeting cellulite, sagging, and loss of elasticity, which is pretty amazing for a body product. Layer it under the Vitamin C Body Oil and you’ll glow like you’re lit from within. This will be my ultimate beach day prep.
This gives you a soft sheen and adds a veil of youthful glow. I love layering it over my blush for that extra pop of fresh-faced radiance. There’s truly nothing like a balmy highlight to create that dewy, ageless look. Nectar is the perfect soft pink with zero shimmer, just pure luminosity. It melts into the skin and looks so natural, like you’ve just come back from a facial or a beach stroll. I also dab it on my collarbones and shoulders for an extra glow on vacation.
From Arizona heat to coastal humidity, this mist has been my recent go to for holding your entire look together despite the weather. It’s a newer arrival and since launch, I find that this is the setting spray I reach for the most. It sets makeup, calms the skin with niacinamide and rooibos, and leaves a soft glassy finish. I keep one in my beach tote or makeup bag for midday refreshes. It’s a true Summer 2025 essential, especially for travel. I usually love a dewy glow, but during hot days, longevity is key and this mist locks everything in without dulling the skin. It’s lightweight, refreshing, and seriously keeps your look intact from morning to night.
Juicy citrus meets sun-warmed skin. I love to mist this through my hair and across my décolleté after a dip in the pool or post beach days. The scent mixes with your body care and fragrances in the most perfect way. It’s the ultimate summer refresh, light, sexy, and effortless. Perfect for tossing in your beach bag or keeping in your car for a quick little moment to elevate yourself. It smells like vacation in a bottle.
Why I’m Body-Obsessed Right Now
I’ve always believed skin care shouldn’t stop at the jawline. Tronque takes that philosophy and runs with it, delivering clinical-level actives for the entire body. Pair their products with targeted glow tools and a dash of playful color and you’re vacation-ready from head to toe.
Wishing you hydrated, radiant, feel-good skin wherever July takes you. If you need a personalized travel routine, you know where to find us.
