Workouts at CST50 

292 Post Road East

“This hidden secret of a boutique fitness studio is not the studio for those who are afraid of a little (a lot) of pain, but the results are worth it! Start with Fundamentals and work up to co-owner Felice's class which is a hybrid of intense workout and fierce motivation. Your booty will never be the same.” CST50Darien

Dermaplaning at Prima Skincare

292 Post Road East

“This is my favorite place for Dermaplaning around Westport. Dermaplaning is the treatment behind the super smooth skin you see on the red carpets, because the aesthetician removes dry skin and peach fuzz with a scalpel. I did it in NYC twice and it was the treatment I immediately sought once I moved to Westport. Even your makeup goes on completely differently after Dermaplaning, and with that, you won't need much of it.” PrimaUltimateSkincare

Galaxy Bowl at Green + Tonic

17 Jesup Road

“It’s the Wellness Food of Westport! Galaxy Bowl is a smoothie bowl which includes activated charcoal so it’s instantly detoxing. Activated charcoal absorbs toxins in your body and is incredibly cleansing. It purifies skin inside out and improves digestion (hey, flatter stomach!). The Bowl is perfect as a summer breakfast before hitting the beach or an afternoon snack. Because it's black and looks very cool, my boys always try to eat my bowl - not that they need to detox yet! (Beware though, it could detox any medication you are taking.) That said, the Galaxy Bowl includes a base of activated charcoal, strawberry, blueberry, banana, cacao, and hazelnut milk, topped with almond butter, super-seed sprinkle, pomegranate, banana, more blueberries, and cacao nibs.” GreenAndTonic

Cream Makeup at Bluemercury

57 Main Street and 62 Main Street

Cream makeup is the way to go to look a bit younger, naturally. It might not last as long as powder makeup, but it will make your skin glow and almost look like you woke up that way. And it’s moisturizing - this past winter here was really dry! My favorites are Supergoop Shimmershade SPF eyeshadows, RMS Lip2Cheek (love the shade Spell! Like a creamy, natural version of Nars Orgasm), Lune & Aster Powerlips Quickstick, and Hourglass Mechanical Gel Eyeliner (try a darker color of the eyeliner in the top corner of your eyes, a lighter color of the eyeliner on the lower corners of your eyes. You can find them all at the two locations of Bluemercury in town (across the street from each other).” BlueMercury

Zen Bronze Organic Spray Tan

231 Post Road West

“I know it's silly, but I just feel more amazing with a sun-kissed glow! So to protect my skin and not be tempted to lie in the sun ‘just a bit,’ I love getting spray tans throughout the summer. Then I have a natural looking tan without the chemicals 'til Labor Day, which makes me continuously feel—and look—like I just came back from a fabulous vacation or Compo beach!!” ZenBronze

DIY Electrolyte Drink

A must before and during tough workouts, long summer days outside, and keeping up with kids running around nonstop - like my two boys! Squeeze half an organic lemon into a water bottle filled with filtered/ purified water, and sprinkle in ground organic pink Himalayan sea salt.” @annabelladaily
