I Really Thought I Was In Hawaii

This past weekend in Seattle was amazing, weather wise. We wait a long time for the sun to come out and when it finally appears, it doesn't disappoint. Saturday was superb, so I headed outside as soon as I could to get as much vitamin D as my skin could absorb. With me I took:

Flip Flops

Coppertone Sunscreen

Sunglasses

Lemon Drop Cocktail (and it wasn't just one)

Novel: "Here Today, Gone to Maui", by Carol Snow

So, I sat in my backyard and soaked up the sun, and as I got into the book, I really thought I was in Hawaii (or maybe it was the Lemon Drops)! It was great to feel the sun on my skin, to smell the sunscreen, and to be so hot that I had to go inside and cool down - it's been a while since that has happened.

I am taking a few days off over the Memorial Day weekend, so I hope that mother nature is as kind to me as she was this weekend - all I need now is a new book!

Maui Babe Tanning Supplies

This morning I woke up to snow again in Seattle. With winter only just beginning it made me realize that I need to get my tan ready for my trip to Hawaii, and its not going to happen by going out in the backyard with my bikini on! I need to speed up the process, with help from my friends at the tanning salon, and Maui Babe Browning Lotion.

This amazing product is not a self tanner, but it accelerates the sun triggered tanning processes in your skin, allowing you to tan faster and keep it. The lotion is suitable for all skin types and can even be used with sunscreen, although this is not recommended in the tanning salons. The Browning Lotion is made from an old secret family formula, mixed from natural Hawaiian ingredients, including aloe, which is used by Hawaiians to heal burns of all types.

Maui Babe has a number of different products you can try, including hand and body lotion, and their newest product is their Tanning Salon Formula - perfect for those of us who see the tanning salon more than the beach. I will be sure to pick some of this product up in February. You can buy all their products on their website, or at ABC Stores throughout Hawaii. Happy tanning!

Lack of Blogging This Week

If anyone is reading my blog and wondering what happened to the regular daily posts, I have been out of action due to a virus/cold/upset stomach. Have had a terrible week - really feeling down. I think if I was able to head to the beach and get some sun things would be different. Ah yes, that is the beauty of living in Hawaii - sun surrounding you almost every day of the year.

Well I hope to be back on track next week - looks like I may have to head to the tanning salon in Seattle to recover!
