The Quality Edit™

[GIVEAWAY CLOSED] Summertime is in the air and we’re so back . As we anticipated May, our questions were endless: Which SPF do derms recommend? What’s the scent of the summer?

“I want to be clear that I’m not breaking news here. The olive has been the backbone of Mediterranean life for a good six thousand-ish years — it doesn’t need my thumbs up. But it’s also kind of everywhere right now,” editor @softblond writes. To get your olive summer started, she’s put together a starter pack — things that smell like an olive grove, things that look like one, and some actual olives. Go à la carte or commit to the full olivemaxx. Comment “OLIVE” and we’ll send you the link to shop 🔗

TQE co-founder @lauren.kleinman and her best friend @karakcosta took their annual girls trip to @Zadunreserve , the first Ritz-Carlton Reserve in Mexico.
