I won this @skin1004official Hyalu-Cica Water-Fit I won this @skin1004official Hyalu-Cica Water-Fit Sun Serum SPF50+ 🌞🧴🌊 in a giveaway on Picky and have taken it to the beach the last few times I went.

I love how light and hydrating it is while also waterproof and for both the face and body. Moreover, it's easy to layer a lot of product to really reach proper protection. 😎

⬇️ Which is your favorite sunscreen this summer?

These many rainy days have impaired my mood, but now it's finally supposed to get much nicer ☀️. And I guess the City looks great in any weather condition. 😊

My perfect accessory to fall asleep 🌠 ~gifted~ My perfect accessory to fall asleep 🌠 ~gifted~

I wear my 3-in-1 Bluetooth sleep headband from @digitnow.official almost every night and also during naps 😴. The fabric is so soft  and comfortable, even with (or rather thanks to) the built-in ultra-thin stereo speakers. The rechargeable battery provides over 14 hours of playtime. Oh, and, of course, the sound is also excellent! 🎧

What do you think I listen to the most to fall asleep?
1️⃣ Die drei ??? (German radio play series about 3 young detectives) 🕵‍♂️
2️⃣ The soundtrack of the musical "Sunset Blvd." 🎭
3️⃣ Meditation through the meditating app on my phone 💆‍♀️
