Model Molly Sims on the Beauty Holy Grails She Always Travels With—‘They're Worth Their Weight in Gold'
Molly Sims is having quite a year. The model and founder of Something Happy Productions both co-produced and acted in Netflix's "Kinda Pregnant" with Amy Schumer, and she just set up another high-profile project for the streamer. "The Last Mrs. Parrish" is based on the juicy bestselling novel, with Jennifer Lopez as the lead and Academy Award-winning Robert Zemeckis attached to direct.
'Long story short, the option on the book was coming up, and I called one of my good friends who's a big producer, Liza Chasin of 3dot Productions. We partnered and ended up getting it,' she tells Travel + Leisure. 'It was the right time at the right place.'
The multi-hyphenate and mother of three is also overseeing the rapid expansion of her YSE Beauty brand, including launching at Sephora this month. 'Having Sephora as a new partner is so exciting. We're ready, we just turned two, and the brand has crazily taken off; things are really super,' she says. A group photo from a family vacation.
Modeling all over the world for over 30 years, and for such globally renowned brands as CoverGirl and Sports Illustrated , Sims is also very well versed in travel tips—like how to pack efficiently and how to arrive feeling rejuvenated after a flight.
'I love packing cubes; I'm a packing cube kind of woman,' she says. 'I love when things are organized, and I can just zip and not necessarily have to take it all out.'
Sims has plenty of beauty rituals too. 'I went to New York to host The Kelly Clarkson Show for a couple of days, and I literally slept in my Overachiever eye masks and had my Like A Gloss lip treatment on because I had to film and was dehydrated,' she adds. 'I had my earphones in and did a Talika mask when I got there, it's a French brand I like.'
One thing you can't travel without?
Ear pods. But the ones with the wires, they're better.
How do you spend time on flights?
I sleep.
In-flight beauty tip?
My Your Favorite Ex pads or Overachiever eye masks.
Favorite family destination?
Mexico. We've had a home in Cabo for 15 years and just redid it.
Dream trip?
I'd love to take my family to India. It was one of the best trips I ever took as a model. I went for two days, I think for Marie Claire , and I got to go to Rajasthan and Jaipur. It was one of the best trips I've ever taken in my life.
She always travels with a few additional beauty holy grails, like the Georgia Louise cryo tools. 'I'm telling you—they're worth their weight in gold. I have the face roller that I use as a gua sha, and I always take that with me.' A silky eye mask and Neutrogena wipes are her other essentials. 'I'll wash my face with the wipes and then use my Your Favorite Ex exfoliating pads.' A touch of glow is also a given. 'I'm excited to try the Westman Atelier Sun Tone bronzing drops that I just got.' Brightening Eye Mask, Skin Glow SPF, and Vacation Glow Highlighter Stick from skincare brand YSE Beauty.
Thanks to a busy work and travel schedule, wellness is always top of mind for Sims. 'I use the Zicam nasal swabs, Alkalize [supplement powder] from Sarah Wragge Wellness, and wellness shots with turmeric and ginger,' she says. 'I do it constantly, every single day.' And if she's feeling anxious or needs help getting to sleep, she listens to Gabby. 'It's Gabby Bernstein and such a good app.'
Beyond growing YSE and working on projects with her production company, Sims is also preparing for a couple of upcoming trips with her kids. 'We have a lacrosse schedule for our son and will be doing something fun with our daughter in August. If she qualifies, she's going to pony finals, so we'll get to go to Lexington for 10 days.'
Summer family vacation planning with husband Scott Stuber, a former Netflix executive who now heads up United Artists under Amazon MGM, is also top of mind. 'We'll all spend time in the Hamptons, and we're going to try to hop over to Europe for a week.'

Christian Yelich's homer powers Brewers to 8th straight win, beating Reds 3-2
CINCINNATI (AP) — Christian Yelich hit his fourth home run in six games and the Milwaukee Brewers extended their winning streak to eight games, beating the Cincinnati Reds 3-2 Monday night. Yelich — named the National League Player of the Week earlier in the day — connected on a full-count slider from Brady Singer (6-4) and drove it 417 feet to straightaway center and off the batter's eye to put Milwaukee on top in the third inning. Sal Frelick had a pair of hits for the Brewers, who have their longest winning streak since running off nine straight in August 2023. Aaron Civale (1-1) picked up his first win of the season in his third start since missing nearly two months due to a strained left hamstring. The right-hander, who went 5 1/3 innings, rebounded after allowing two runs in the first and struck out five. Trevor Megill retired Cincinnati in order in the ninth for his 12th save in 13 opportunities. The Reds took a 2-0 lead in the first on RBI base hits by Elly De La Cruz and Spencer Steer. The Brewers responded with a pair in the second after loading the bases. Joey Ortiz drew a walk to score Sal Frelick and Brice Truang's sacrifice fly plated Andrew Monasterio. Key moment The Reds had runners on first and second with one out in the sixth inning, but Milwaukee left-hander Rob Zastryzny struck out Jose Trevino and got pinch-hitter Santiago Espinal to ground out. Zastryzny was acquired in a trade with the Yankees on May 16. He was with the Brewers last season and went 1-0 with a 1.17 ERA in nine appearances. He hasn't allowed a run in seven appearances this year. Key stat Yelich is batting .450 over the last 10 games. He has gone 18 for 40 with six homers and 14 RBIs. Up next Milwaukee right-hander Freddy Peralta (5-3, 2.77 ERA) has the eighth-lowest ERA in the NL. Cincinnati will go with RHP Hunter Greene (4-3, 2.63 ERA). ___ AP MLB:

Hunter Goodman homers twice as Rockies beat Marlins 6-4 to end 8-game losing streak
MIAMI (AP) — Hunter Goodman homered twice, including a go-ahead two-run shot in the fifth inning, and the Colorado Rockies beat the Miami Marlins 6-4 on Monday night to snap their fourth eight-game losing streak of the season. It was the 10th win against 50 losses for the Rockies, who had already wrapped up the worst 60-game start in the modern era (since 1901). The 1904 Washington Senators and 1932 Boston Red Sox both opened 11-49. Goodman had a two-out single in the first off Max Meyer, and Thairo Estrada followed with an RBI double to give Colorado the lead. Goodman was charged with an error in the bottom half when he dropped a throw at home plate, allowing the tying run to score. Otto Lopez added an RBI single off Germán Márquez, and a sacrifice fly by Eric Wagaman gave Miami a 3-1 lead. Jesús Sánchez's run-scoring double made it 4-1 in the second. Goodman homered in the third, and Tyler Freeman's two-out RBI single in the fourth got the Rockies within a run. Ezequiel Tovar singled leading off the fifth and Goodman followed with his ninth homer for a 5-4 advantage. Keston Hiura doubled leading off the ninth for his first hit with Colorado, and Sam Hilliard's one-out double drove in an insurance run. Márquez (2-7) allowed four runs — three earned — and nine hits in five innings. Jake Bird, Tyler Kinley and Seth Halvorsen each pitched a scoreless inning before Zach Agnos worked the ninth for his fourth save. Meyer (3-5) gave up five runs — four earned — and 10 hits in five innings. Miami has lost three of four to begin a six-game homestand. Key moment Sánchez singled leading off the ninth for Miami (23-35) before he was forced out at second on a pop fly by Agustín Ramírez that dropped in front of Freeman in right field. Agnos got Kyle Stowers to hit into a game-ending double play two pitches later. Key stat Goodman, a third-year catcher, leads Colorado in home runs and RBIs (34). Up next Marlins RHP Sandy Alcantara (2-7, 8.47 ERA) starts the middle game of the series Tuesday. The Rockies hadn't announced a scheduled starter. ___ AP MLB:

Texas Tech ends Oklahoma's 4-year run as Women's College World Series champ with walk-off 3-2 win
OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) — Oklahoma's run of four straight Women's College World Series titles ended when Lauren Allred's walk-off sacrifice fly gave Texas Tech a 3-2 victory in the semifinals on Monday night. Coach Patty Gasso's Sooners (52-9) were down to their last strike in the top of the seventh inning when Abigale Dayton summoned a bit of magic, hitting a tying two-run homer against Red Raiders ace NiJaree Canady. It was just her third longball of the season. But the Red Raiders (53-12) responded quickly in the bottom half. Mihyia Davis singled with one out and Hailey Toney followed with a double. Allred hit a flyball to right field and Sydney Barker's throw to the plate was wide, allowing Davis to score easily. Texas Tech, in its first trip to the WCWS, will play Texas in the best-of-three championship series starting Wednesday. The Longhorns reached the finals for the third time in the past four years. They lost to Oklahoma in 2022 and 2024. Oklahoma had won nine straight elimination games. Canady lost the shutout but got the win. She is the two-time reigning National Fastpitch Coaches Association Pitcher of the Year and was the USA Softball Collegiate Player of the Year last season. Formerly with Stanford, Canady signed a name, image and likeness deal worth more than $1 million to go to Texas Tech. ___ AP sports:
