Summer Essentials

1. Sunday Riley Tidal Brightening Enzyme Cream - Basking in the summer sun is amazing; having dry skin is not. This moisturizer is super-hydrating yet feels lightweight under makeup. It's a blue gel-cream formula that's really soothing and cooling on the skin.

2. Tarte Tarteguard Sunscreen SPF 30 - Good sunscreen is obviously a summer essential. This one from tarte is really light, sinks into the skin quickly and doesn't leave that thick, white, sunscreen feeling. Plus it has a fresh scent and looks good under makeup!

3. La Neige BB Cushion SPF 50 - My favorite BB cushion can be found at Target. It's super easy to apply - just pat the sponge into the foundation cushion then directly onto your face. This also has a cooling sensation and is packed with SPF 50. Perfect for the hotter months, or year round!

4. Bobbi Brown Bronze Glow Highlight - Summer is all about glowing skin. This highlighter will give you just what the name suggests- a beautiful bronze glow. Looks best with a tan.

5. Bourjois Tropical Festival Bronzer (LE) - This is a lovely matte bronzer that's a limited release for Summer 2016. I picked it up on my trip to the UK, but you can buy it online through asos. It smells of tropical goodness!

6. Too Faced Better than Sex Waterproof Mascara - A good waterproof mascara can be hard to find, but Too Faced nailed it with their Better than Sex. I love the packaging that is an aqua color with what looks like raindrops sprinkled on the tube.

7. Soap & Glory Sugar Crush Body Scrub - Tis the season for tanning and (sometimes, accidentally) burning! Whether you're getting rid of flaky skin to prep for a self tan, or getting rid of dead skin after being out in the sun too long, a nice exfoliating product is key. This one from S&G has a sweet citrus scent adds moisture as it scrubs.

8. Jergens Natural Glow Moisturizer - Moisturizer is an essential for the body to keep it hydrated when it's hot outside! Why not use a moisturizer that will give your skin a little extra color and amp up your natural (or fake) tan! This one from Jergens has a nice scent and won't stain your clothes.

9. YSL Tint-in-Oil - Sticking with the hydration theme, hydrated lips are a must in the summer! The YSL Tint-In-Oils are so nice because they hydrate the lips, add a sheer tint & have an amazing fruity scent. My favorite is in the color "Peach Me Love".

10. Macadamia Oil Deep Repair Mask - Being out in the sun & chlorinated pools can take a toll on your hair. Keep it healthy, shiny and frizz-free with a conditioning mask like this one from Macadamia Oil. This has been my go-to favorite for years now - I can't be without it!
