It's not "officially" summer yet, but it's hot enough that we're gonna say it's summer. So let's talk summer beauty must haves!
1.
neutrogena face sunscreen - I love this product because like the bottle says, it's "break-out free" & I have really sensitive skin so it's perfect.
2.
beach babe texturizing spray - This sea salt spray by 'not your mother's' is perfect when you want those beachy waves. Also it smells SO good!
3.
clean & clear oil sheets - These are my best friend, I use them year round! They do an amazing job at getting rid of oil. FYI: If you're sweating & have not cooled down yet, I would not use them until you have done so because it'll take like all your makeup off. Also, I'm sure other brands work the same.. these are just the ones I have always used.
4.
waterproof mascara - This is one of a few different waterproof mascaras I have used. It's a must for summer when you're going swimming, on the river, or at the beach.
5.
cooling spray - This Waikiki Beach Coconut cooling spray from Bath&BodyWorks is 1. my favorite scent probably EVER and 2. it's basically like after sun lotion but a spray. Also, it contains aloe.
6.
makeup setting spray - I like to use this Urban Decay All Nighter setting spray to keep my makeup in place all day.
7.
tanning lotion - I've always used this Australian Gold tanning lotion & it seems to do a great job. I also think it smells pretty good.
8.
self tanner - This self tanner by Ocean Potion is basically a daily tinted moisturizer. I like that it gradually makes your skin darker & doesn't give you those annoying dark splotchy marks or make you look orange. I definitely recommend getting this.
9.
bb cream - I like to use bb cream when I don't feel like putting on a lot of makeup, but still want good coverage. I recommend this one by Clinique.
10.
after sun lotion - This after sun lotion by Hawiian Tropic smells SO good. I've used it for several years now & love it. Also if you put it in the fridge (like anything) it will get cold & feels nice on your skin if you have a sunburn. I always use this even if I don't get a sunburn so my skin won't pill.
11.
bronzer - This is good anytime of the year but I think it's good to have handy during the summer to add some color to your skin after a day in the sun & you may not have a dark enough foundation at the moment.
12.
makeup remover wipes - These hydrating makeup remover wipes by Neutrogena are my favorite. I have used them for years. They are great for summer (or year round) if you have dry skin.
13.
coconut lime sugar scrub - Coconut scent is my favorite especially during the summer. I love this body scrub, great for exfoliating... which is important during the summer & when you're using a self tanner.
14.
dry shampoo - I would probably die without dry shampoo. My new favorite is this one by OGX. It does a good job & it smells just like the shampoo!
15.
ogx coconut shampoo & conditioner - Cause what's summer without the smell of coconut?! I love OGX's products. I've used several different shampoo & conditioners by them and I haven't found one I didn't like.
