Hanging Out With Susan & Ryan Shand of TESS

Set in the picturesque town of Santa Barbara, CA, I can't tell you what's better: owning a cool skincare company, or getting to live in such a fabulous place. Susan Shand and her teenage daughter Ryan get to do both, running TESS (Teenage Everyday Skincare System), and living near the gorgeous Pacific coast full of nothing but sunny days -- except today. I got to spend a rainy afternoon with this dynamic, mother-daughter duo as they shopped and enjoyed some serious pretty playtime at the Sephora store in the Paseo Nuevo mall where they stocked up on their "new" favorite things. Stay tuned for the full story on Beauty Central, but for now, take a look at this hilarious photo of Susan giving Ryan a little motherly spritz of their very own Orange Facial toner, all in the name of beauty research. Fun, I tell you. Who knew getting a facial from your mother could actually be so enjoyable? -Joannie Sevilla
