Every little girl I know loves to match up with her mama. From trying on my heels to trying to dress and walk the same way we do, our girls adore mimicking their mothers. Matching swimsuits and shoes are always a cute way to make a mother/daughter fashion statement and now one of our favorite shoe companies is launching a special collaboration just in time for Mother’s Day!

Nina Garcia, Courteney Cox, Rebecca Romijn and Tori Spelling have teamed up with Baby Buggy and Havaianas to launch a special Mother’s Day Mommy & Me flip flop collection.

The Havaianas for Baby Buggy collection will offer matching adult and children’s styles custom designed by each celebrity mom. Every pair of sandals reflects the personal style of their designer, mixed with the fun and colorful Havaianas DNA. The collaboration is all for a good cause, as 10% of sales will be donated directly to Baby Buggy, a nonprofit dedicated to providing families in need with essential equipment, products, clothing, and educational services for their infants and children up to age 12.

Rebecca Romijn and her twin girls will also spend Mother’s Day wearing the Havaianas for Baby Buggy Collection. “What a fun way to help Baby Buggy support moms in need,” says Romijn. “My little California girls have just started to master the art of wearing flip flops. We are so excited to spend Mother’s Day wearing matching Havaianas!”

FITNESS: What’s the one beauty product that never leaves your bag?
Rebecca Romijn: I always carry Wella Ocean Spritz to refresh my hair. It mimics sea water and adds great texture. It’s a very good low-maintenance solution for someone who’s on the go.

FITNESS: What are your haircare, makeup and skincare routines like on a typical day?
RR: I cleanse and moisturize my face in the morning and at night, and never forget sunscreen.

FITNESS: What are your secrets for looking great no matter where you are and what you’re doing? Do you have a go-to makeup look or hairstyle?
RR: I don’t wash my hair every day; in fact I always prefer “second day hair”. It’s easy and it does what I want it to do!

FITNESS: What are you gym bag beauty essentials?
RR: I always carry a hair elastic and bobby pins in my gym bag to put my postworkout hair into a bun. A bun is an easy classic. I also put on a great pair of sunglasses and Smashbox O-Gloss for my lips. The pink shade is natural-looking and perfect on everyone. And I love the texture.

FITNESS: What’s your biggest beauty indulgence?
RR: My biggest beauty indulgence are regular facials, and I splurge on Oyxgen Plasma by Knutek. It’s a miracle-worker, and I use it morning and night when I cleanse. Oxygen helps with fine lines and to heal blemishes.

FITNESS: What’s the best tip you’ve picked up from the makeup, hair and skincare experts you’ve worked with?
RR: The best tip I’ve learned from makeup artists is to regularly use the Clarisonic on my face. Even if I think I’ve removed all my makeup, it’s amazing how much cleaner my face becomes after I use my Clarisonic. It’s possibly the best investment I’ve made in my skincare routine since I’ve been an adult.

Keeping Their Love Alive in Hollywood

Rebecca Romijn and Jerry O’Connell have been happily married for four years, have adorable twin daughters Dolly and Charlie and look more in love than ever.

OK! chatted with the blissful couple at Nivea’s Millions of Moments of Touch event at the Empire State Building in NYC, discussing marriage, kids and how they keep their love alive in Hollywood.

Obviously, you and Rebecca have no problem with PDA. But how do you balance your relationship, kids and a career and still find time for one another?

Jerry: Once a week we have a date night. But sometimes I don’t really keep up with that promise a lot because we do have two little kids and we can’t always find a sitter. I’m working here in New York, and Rebecca has been in L.A. for a little bit, so I fly out on my day off. It’s tough, but we do try to get at least one day a week [for] just the two of us, so we don’t go crazy. Otherwise, all of our dates would consist of going to see animated movies and eating mac-and-cheese at family-style restaurants.

Rebecca: When we go out to eat, we sit on the same side of the table.

Jerry: In Hollywood, you can’t go to the more popular establishments because they are always packed.

Rebecca: So we always have to look for less popular restaurants.

Are you thinking about having more kids?

Rebecca: No! No! We are done! Two is enough! We don’t want to be outnumbered.

How is it, balancing two at the same time?

Rebecca: That’s all we know. In a lot of ways we feel like it’s easier, and right now they keep each other so busy because they are each other’s play dates. Right now, they are just getting potty trained, so diapers are now almost part of our history! No more disgusting diapers! So, in a lot of ways, it’s getting easier and easier.

Since you did have twins, what are some of your workout tips?

Rebecca: Do yoga. We like to do things together a lot. A lot of bike rides, hiking. We walk around the city a lot. We go to the gym sometimes.

Admits to Working Mom Guilt

Rebecca Romijn, who stars in the upcoming Tyler Perry comedy Good Deeds, has managed to balance her busy career with her most important role as mom to three-year-old twin daughters, Charlie and Dolly.

Romijn, 39, talked to Parade.com about her new film, life with twins, and how she and husband Jerry O’Connell make their relationship work despite the spotlight.

On how she juggles career and motherhood.
“I don’t know if I can ever find that balance. I’m still seeking it. It’s hard. I had to leave the girls with their grandparents for five days this week and go to New York to do press for the movie and I experienced so much guilt. But I know they’re in great hands and I don’t have to worry about them. Actually, my character in Good Deeds is obsessed and constantly thinking about her kids and calling her nanny and checking in. I’m actually not so much like that in real life. When they’re with their grandparents, I know that they’re in great hands and I trust that everybody’s happy. I don’t obsess over them when I’m gone, but I do feel so much guilt.”

On life with twins.
“It’s just getting more and more fun with every second. I think we really just turned a corner with the whole potty training thing, too. It was very challenging! Jerry’s in New York starring in Seminar on Broadway and I’m back in California, so I’ve got them both to myself, which is a little bit overwhelming at times. But they’re older and we’re talking and conversations are getting a little bit more interesting and more questions are being asked and answered. I love it. Watching them wrap their heads around very basic concepts is interesting. The whole process is the most enjoyable thing I’ve ever experienced. It’s funny — the last few weekends have been dedicated to all of us drinking as much juice as possible, having a no diaper rule, and just practicing going in the potty. That’s what I’m doing Saturday nights. But we’ve been having fun!”

On the secret to making a Hollywood marriage last.
“I don’t think we regard the spotlight aspect of it at all. That’s just our job. I think to make any relationship work it just takes a tremendous amount of effort and accepting of one another. You have to put time and energy into it. We’ve been together eight years, and I know we’re not breaking any records, but it’s Hollywood man, we’re getting closer! I don’t know if we’ve unlocked any secrets on how to make a relationship work. It’s a process. It’s really fun sometimes and sometimes it’s not so fun as every married couple knows. It’s challenging. In our industry, there are so many times that you get separated for such long periods of time. I think the most important thing is you just don’t let too much time pass without checking in on each other.”

On working with Tyler Perry in Good Deeds.
“I’ve always been a big fan of his and I was really looked forward to working with him. His story is just incredible and what he’s accomplished is so incredible. For somebody who wears so many hats as an actor, producer, and writer, he’s so well-prepared. He’s completely accessible and available and just right there. The whole experience was great. He created such an amazing empire there in Atlanta. I feel like part of his success has to do with the fact that he doesn’t have to answer to anybody. There’s something very old Hollywood about him.”
