Summer is here full throttle! If you did not prepare, now is the time. When it comes to packing your beauty bag for a beach, there are a few items you should be sure to pack. Here are a few of my favorite beauty and care products that stay in my beauty bag all summer long.
Pond’s Daily Facial Moisturizer SPF 30 $9.99
By now, we should all know that moisturizing and sunscreen is the most important thing for our skin, especially when sitting out in the sun. Pond’s, Clarant B3 Even Skin Tone and Rejuveness Anti-Wrinkle Daily Facial Moisturizer with SPF 30, is already my new favorite. Pond’s added these facial moisturizers to their line of skincare products earlier this year. For me, the Clarant B3 Even Skin Tone is the perfect lightweight, hydrating, moisturizer with SPF as a bonus. When it’s hot and humid, the last thing I want to do is layer creams all over my face. Pond’s Daily Facial Moisturizers are a one-stop shop when it comes to keeping your skin hydrated and protecting it from sun damage.
St. Ives Face Mist $5.99
Facial Mists and sprays have been a trend for a while now and come in handy on the go. St. Ives released their new Face Mist sprays earlier this year. Zing Face Mist Energizing Orange, YAAAS Face Mist Happy Grapefruit and Ohmmm Face Mist Relaxing Lavender are the three scents available. St. Ives Face Mist leaves the skin hydrated with each scent offering its aroma therapy. Lavender is one of my favorite scents, so I’m always spritzing Ohmmm Face Mist, especially when my skin needs an extra hydration boost.
Love AnyBody Anti-Chafe Stick $8.99
It’s true, thick thighs save lives, but they also chafe. Chafing isn’t fun for anyone, but with Love Anybody’s anti-chafe stick there’s one less thing to stress over. When it’s hot, and you want to throw on some cute shorts or walk around in your bathing suit, this anti-chafe stick is A MUST! I would even go as far as saying it’s as essential as sunscreen. Let’s be real chafing happens to people of all shapes and sizes and it can get painful. The Love Anybody anti-chafe should be in everyone’s beach bag.
Schmidt’s Natural Deodorant $9.99
Deodorant should be used all year round but we all know during the summer months deodorant is imperative. Schmidt’s Natural Deodorant is the perfect beach day deodorant. For some of us, certain chemicals like aluminum, proplyene glycol, and artifical fragrances can irritate the skin. Schmidt’s Natural Deodorant’s are vegan, gluten free, cruetly free, no aluminum, proplyene glycol,and artifcial fragrances. While some natural aren’t always effective Schmidt’s deodorants work to neautralize odors and are safe enough to be used by anyone.
Summer is approaching, the longer days and gradual heat are a reminder to grab SPF 50 sunscreen ASAP. While you should’ve been wearing sunscreen year-round, feeling the sun on your skin immediately refreshes your memory; you just can’t go through last summers sun-burn again. You head over to your nearest Walgreens, walk through the automatic doors, and find yourself somewhere in the middle tropics. With a margarita in one hand and Walgreens SPF 50 in the other, you’re all set for summer.
