Sasha DiGiulian is busy. When she鈥檚 not training at the gym, traveling around the world to climb, or walking her good boy, Moose, near her home in Boulder, Colorado, she鈥檚 working as the CEO of , her plant-based nutrition bar company that she co-founded in 2022.
Because of her packed schedule, DiGiulian, a three-time U.S. National champion with more than 30 first female ascents under her belt, looks for convenience in the products she uses. Think: creams that moisturize and protect her skin聽from the sun at the same time or face wipes that hydrate and clean.
Even her company鈥檚 bars fall into this category. DiGiulian wanted a convenient food to grab on the go that also fulfilled her health needs.
鈥淪end Bars are how I get my greens and fuel when I鈥檓 at the crag, biking, or hiking,鈥 she says. 鈥淭here is so much health washing on the market, and I just want clean, real food with no refined sugars, preservatives, or unnatural flavorings鈥攖hat tastes really good.鈥 It doesn鈥檛 hurt that she can throw one in a bag on the way to the airport, either.
国产吃瓜黑料 of her tried-and-true bars, here are the products this busy climber swears by.
Ursa Major Essential Face Wipes
Ursa Major’s 4-in-1 Essential Face Tonic is made with superfood-sounding ingredients, like radish root ferment, rosemary, and willow bark extract. It also features witch hazel, green tea, and aloe vera, to name a few, for a formula meant to clean, exfoliate, soothe, and hydrate. These individually-wrapped wipes are easy to toss in a pocket or bag for a quick way to freshen up on any adventure. “I like to keep these bamboo face wipes in my pack to clean and hydrate my skin after a sweaty and dirty day out climbing,” says DiGiulian.
They’re sold in packs of 5, 20, or 40 wipes.
Sun Bum Lip Balm
DiGiulian relies on this 30 SPF lip balm to protect her lips from wind and sun when she’s getting after it outside. The product features eight percent zinc oxide for sun protection and shea butter and vitamin E, which, she says, soothe and repair her lips.
Suntegrity 5-in-1 Tinted Sunscreen Moisturizer
The climber applies this tinted sunscreen moisturizer before spending any time outdoors or even just running errands. It’s made to protect skin聽from the sun with 30 SPF, as well as hydrate and add a hint of color as it goes on. With ingredients like aloe vera, cucumber extract, and sunflower seed oil, it’s also free of fragrance, cruelty-free, and vegan. “I鈥檓 big on sunscreen, and I find that this is also a nice tinted one to smooth out blemishes and bring a little color to my face,” she says.
Love from Yours Sunny Side Up SPF 30 Mist
DiGiulian uses this mist as a way to re-up her sunscreen on big outings. “Normally, my days are pretty long outside,” she says. “So I like keeping a mist like this with me to maintain the protection.”
She also loves that it doesn’t go on oily or shiny and can be applied over her makeup without feeling caked on or like it’s clogging her pores. Plus, it鈥檚 cruelty-free.
Olive and June Nail Polish
Just because she covers her hands in climbing chalk for a living doesn’t mean DiGiulian doesn’t like a good manicure. She uses Olive and June’s tab press-ons when she’s going from the crag to dinner, she says. She appreciates that the tab variety doesn’t require glue, which saves her from the strong scent鈥攏ot to mention everyone else聽around her when she’s applying them on a plane or in a car.
“They go on and pop off so easily that they鈥檙e perfect for post-adventure meetups where you want fun nails,” says DiGiulian.
