How to Make This Easy Margarita Before Your Dinner Date

(Light & Zesty)

A refreshing little sip to help you unwind—but not overfill. Keeps your vibe light, your tummy happy, and your glow activated.

Grapefruit Margarita (Mocktail-Friendly)

Ingredients:

½ cup fresh grapefruit juice 1 tbsp fresh lime juice 1 tsp agave nectar or honey (adjust to taste) 2 oz sparkling water or club soda 1.5 oz silver tequila (optional) Ice cubes Salt or Tajín for rimming (optional)

Instructions:

Rim a glass with lime juice, then dip in salt or Tajín if desired. In a shaker, combine grapefruit juice, lime juice, agave (or honey), and tequila (if using) with ice. Shake well and strain into your prepared glass. Top with sparkling water or club soda. Garnish with a lime wheel or grapefruit wedge.

Tip: Leave out the tequila for a refreshing mocktail version that still delivers that citrusy sparkle!

Quick Tips for Glowing Skin in August Heat

August heat can be brutal on your skin, but a few smart swaps can keep your glow intact. Stick to lightweight, breathable products that won’t clog your pores or melt away midday. I’ve been reaching for the Isa Knox Anew Solaire Everyday Mineral Face Protection Cream SPF 50—it protects with mineral zinc, hydrates with niacinamide, and feels like nothing on the skin. Add in a brightening Vitamin C serum, exfoliate once or twice a week, and stay consistent with a gentle cleanser at night. When your skincare does the work, your makeup can take a back seat—and your glow still shows up.

For soft, kissable lips all day, I swear by the FMG LOVE Lip Butter Crème. It’s deeply moisturizing without feeling heavy, thanks to nourishing ingredients like shea butter, jojoba oil, vitamin E, and natural waxes. Plus, the subtle tint adds a natural pop of color—perfect for keeping your lips hydrated and fresh whether you’re out on a date or running errands.
