Summer Beauty Must Haves

Hi y’all! Today I’m sharing the ultimate guide to the essential beauty items you’ll need for a radiant summer.

Summer is here, and with it comes sun-kissed skin, beach days, and endless adventures. But to keep your beauty routine strong through the heat, humidity, and sun exposure, you need the right products. From sunscreens to hydrating mists, these must-have beauty products will help you maintain a fresh, glowing look all summer.

Sunscreen is a non-negotiable during the summer months. Protecting your skin from harmful UV rays prevents sunburns, premature aging, and skin cancer. Look for a broad-spectrum sunscreen with at least 30 SPF. One of my top picks is the Supergoop Glow Screen SPF 40. For those who love a radiant finish, Glow Screen offers broad-spectrum protection with a pearlescent formula that adds a subtle, dewy glow. It’s perfect for those non-makeup days when you still want a touch of radiance. For a sunscreen that you can use on the face and body, the Vacation SPF 30 Chardonnay Oil offers broad-spectrum protection. The chardonnay grape seed oil is rich in antioxidants, which help to combat free radicals and environmental stressors.

Caudalie’s Vinoperfect is a skincare line known for its ability to brighten, even out skin tone, and enhance overall radiance. The star product of the Vinoperfect line, the Radiance Serum is a potent treatment for dark spots and uneven skin tone. Lightweight and non-greasy, it absorbs quickly into the skin, delivering the brightening benefits of Viniferine, a natural compound derived from grapevine sap. Apply it morning and night before your moisturizer for the best results.

Keep your skin hydrated and refreshed with a hydrating facial mist. I’ve used mists throughout the day to cool down and replenish moisture, especially after sun exposure. Try the Caudalie Face Mist for instant hydration and antioxidant protection. The natural ingredients in the mist work together to soothe irritation and reduce redness. Or try the Coco & Eve Face Mist, where the aloe vera soothes irritated skin, making it perfect for sensitive or sun-exposed skin.

Summer Friday’s Lip Butter Balm is a must-have for keeping your lips hydrated, nourished, and protected all summer. It is vegan and packed with soothing ingredients, helping to calm irritated lips.

Coco & Eve’s Self Tanner offers a safe, effective, and luxurious alternative to sunbathing. It features a streak-free application and buildable color. Unlike many self-tanners, which can dry out your skin, Coco & Eve’s formula has coconut water, aloe vera, and other hydrating ingredients.

L’Occitane, renowned for its high-quality, naturally inspired products, makes a body oil that will elevate your skincare routine. It is perfect for deep hydration and smells fresh. Rich and creamy, the body oil nourishes the skin and promotes softness.

The Rare Beauty Liquid Highlight stands out for its exceptional formula and stunning finish. Its vegan formula gives the skin a natural radiance. Whether you prefer a subtle shimmer or a more intense highlight, the highlighter’s buildable formula allows you to customize your glow.

The Laniege Lip Glowy Balm is a perfect blend of moisture and shine that keeps your lips looking and feeling their best. It has a non-sticky formula that delivers intense hydration. Unlike some lip balms that leave a matte finish, this lip balm offers a natural, glossy sheen that makes your lips look plump.

Salt and Stone Deodorant is a product that promises odor protection with a clean, natural formula. They come in various scents, my favorite being the santal and vetiver scent. These deodorants have skin-soothing ingredients like shea butter and jojoba oil, which are gentle on even the most sensitive skin.

Ellis Brooklyn’s Sun Fruit Perfume captures the essence of a sun-soaked summer day in a bottle. It has a bright and juicy fragrance featuring fig, jasmine, and coconut notes.

Stock up on these must-haves and get ready to enjoy a glowing, beautiful summer!
