Lisa's Likes--Travel Essentials (Just In Time For The 4th of July)

It’s official.  SUMMER is here! Hello June, July, August and sun.

But before we get too ahead of ourselves, remember those resolutions that you set back in January? Of course you do (especially when you start to see your hard work pay off as you slip on your swimwear and head to the beach). 

It's important to remember those resolutions and honor your commitments to push yourself to new limits at The Studio (MDR), but what's equally important is taking time to relax and simply enjoy some R&R.  Nothing says "relaxing" like going on a summer vacation, and SimplyStylist.com recently asked our own, Lisa Hirsch, to share the must-haves in her travel bag.

Lisa's picks are fashionable, practical and functional but our personal fave on the list is the Luna Chocolate Dipped Coconut Bar For women.  Lisa admits, “Airports are the worst when I’m trying to eat healthy so I always have a couple of Luna Bars on hand. Chocolate Dipped Coconut are my favorite, especially when I get stuck on an unexpected layover.”

Lisa's Likes: Must Haves For Beauty From Day To Night

As a businesswoman who is always on the go, I am all about products that are fabulous and functional.  One of my favorite items (that takes me from my days at The Studio (MDR) to a night out in Venice) is Murad’s Energizing Pomegranate Lip Protector.  I love it because it’s glossy but not sticky and---it smells yummy!

This gloss "shines above" the rest because the pomegranate extract boosts the SPF 15 protection.  The Jojoba Ester and Shea Butter intensely hydrate my lips to keep them from drying out while restoring them with powerful antioxidants.  It also contains Salicylic Acid, which retexturizes my lips to make them soft and supple.

I am not alone in my love for this lip protector, it's been featured as the favorite gloss in magazines such as InStyle, Lucky, and People!

So that's it, my secret is out. A little mascara and Murad at 5am and I’m good to go to the studio!

What's your favorite beauty product for day and night? Comment below and let Lisa Hirsch know.

Lisa's Likes: Must Haves For Hair

It's been just over a year since I opened the doors to my baby, the fabulous little boutique fitness studio - The Studio (MDR).  While I knew entrepreneurship would be an exhilarating challenge (and far from what I was used to in the music/entertainment industry), you could say I also didn't know what I'd be in for. I truly love what I do and why I do it--to help my clients be happier and healthier. But I am constantly busy - even when I sleep; whether it's emails at 5:00 am, meetings for my studio expansion or excitedly connecting with new faces and names...I dream of The Studio (MDR) transforming people's bodies and putting smiles on their faces and guess what - it's happening! As a multitasking business owner, my clients and friends are always asking me what my daily must-haves are that help me maintain my high energy and keep me looking good.

One of my favorites is Moroccan Oil haircare. The earthy, exotic scent takes me away to a Moroccan bazaar while keeping my hair shiny and preventing those annoying fly aways that get in your eyes when working out.

I never really think of myself as a "product girl" but I guess I kinda em'! I'll share more of my must-haves in the weeks to come.
