Hi everyone! Today I am back with my essentials for summer. You will be seeing a moisturizing theme since that very hot volcanic sun of ours is working at full force to roast everything on Earth (at least here in California). Also keep in mind that you don't necessary need the exact same items as I have or even the same type of items. These are just the ones I constantly cling to in the summer.
Hawaiian Tropic Sheer Touch Lotion Sunscreen
This goes on my body every single day! Skin cancer is not very cute. Though you should be applying sunscreen every single day regardless of the season, most people spend more time in the sun in the summer than say winter so you must protect that skin!
Boots Expert Shine Control Lotion
With Summer comes the hot, humid weather, and me sweating profusely. So to keep me from looking like a grease ball, I have been using this! Bonus, it's suppose to help control oil in the long run too.
Lumene Pure Radiance Day and Night Cream
Moisturizing is a definite must! These have been keeping my face super moisturize. I mean it's so moisturizing that when I wake up, I feel as if my face has just been soaking in lotion all night. There is also a day version, with SPF, that will keep you moisturize all day too!
Mario Badescu Facial Spray with Aloe, Herbs, and Rosewater
So ever come home and you feel like your face is overheated and full of sweat? Well this product is great for refreshing your face!
Suave Visible Glow Self-Tanning Body Lotion
If you tan super easily like me, then you know that it's a curse! You have 1 arm that's darker than the other, which is a different color than your neck, which is a different color than your face, and etc. So to even all it out, I use this! It's a gradual tan, but it's easy to control!
Bath & Body Works Secret Wonderland
By far my favorite scent from Bath & Body Works. It smells great, and is super moisturizing on the skin. Honestly your skin will be so soft you can't stop touching it!
Olay Fresh Effects BB Cream
This is definitely one of my favorite BB Creams. First off, it smells great! Second, it has sunscreen! Third, I love the light coverage!
Covergirl Outlast Stay Fabulous 3 in 1 Foundation
You can't even read the label, because I have used it that much! (Actually, I currently don't own it, but I did last summer and I'm dying without it this summer. It was perfect! Last all day, matte finish!)
Coty Airspun Loose Face Powder
If you are an oily monster like me, then you need powder every single day to keep that oil away! I've been loving Coty because it's translucent, cheap, and comes in a huge container!
Yea, it's a little swatch heavy...
E.L.F. Blush in Pink Passion
I honestly didn't wear this blush for the lognest time because I was afraid of the color. Turns out, if you use a light hand and blend just a tad, it will be okay! Not to mention it gives the most lively glow to your cheeks!
Nivea A Kiss Of Vitamin Swirl
So this may have vitamins, but it also has that special ingredient, SPF! Most people put sunscreen on their face and body, but forget the lips. Let me tell you from experience, having a sunburn on your lips is not fun!
Maybelline Color Tattoo by Eyestudio
By far my favorite cream shadows on the market. They come in great colors and they last all day, even in the hot sweaty summer. Another bonus, they make great one shadow eye looks so you are bound to save time in the morning!
Seashore Frosts
Bad to the Bronze
Tenacious Teal
So hopefully you found this post useful! If you didn't the main take away message is, stay moisturized and keep that SPF on you at all times! Anyways, if you have any summer essentials you have been loving, I would love to know in the comments below!
Until next time...
