The summer season is fast approaching and temperatures are warming up. Beach vacations, outdoor workouts and dining Al Fresco are a few of my favorite things to do this time of year. For me, summers are all about keeping things light and simple. It's a laid back time of year. I'm all for no makeup days, simple accessories and minimal fuss to make the summer routine quick and easy. So when it comes to beauty and skincare I have some favorite things to help me lighten up for the season. These are some of the things that you'll find in my travel bag right now. Happy Friday!
CeraVe Facial Moisturizing Lotion with SPF
In January I shared a great tip from my dermatologist, CeraVe Moisturizing Lotion. It's inexpensive and effective. During the summer months I make sure I use the AM lotion with SPF 30 every day.
Shea Body Butter from The Body Shop
I love Shea Body Butter. It's hydrating and works well to keep skin soft without feeling greasy. I've been using it for years.
Sugar Lip Treatment with SPF by Fresh
Sugar Lip Treatment with SPF 15 is great every day but especially on a beach day.
Almay One Coat Waterproof Mascara
Remember, great beauty products aren't always expensive. Almay's One Coat Waterproof Mascara is my choice for smudge free eyes all summer.
Watt's Up! Highlighter by Benefit Cosmetics
A little touch of Watt's Up! Highlighter above your cheeks and you just brightened up your whole face. I love this anytime but it's perfect for those no makeup days!
Beach Fragrance by Bobbi Brown
One of my favorite summer fragrances is Beach by Bobbi Brown. It's a fresh, light scent that is so reminiscent of summers at the beach.
Essie Nail Polish in Come Here
A bright summer color like Essie Nail Polish in Come Here is always fun for beach toes.
PuraVida bracelets are one of my favorite summer accessories. They are lightweight, colorful and fun to stack together. PuraVida donates a portion of the proceeds from each bracelet sold to help clean up and preserve beaches and oceans worldwide. Very cool.
Enjoy the warm weather and have a wonderful weekend!
