Obviously SPF is on top of the list and the two products I have been reaching for the most is the La Roche Posay Dry Touch Gel Cream SPF50* and the Supergoop SPF50 Sunscreen Mist*. I love both of these as they are light on the skin and give me a high protection from the sun.
Facial mists seem to be a new thing for me and they do wonders for cooling you down. I have been loving this one from Clayspray*, it has such a fine mist and doesn't feel like you have just walked out the shower after using it.
Make up wise you can't beat BB and CC creams. Two of my favourites are the Rimmel BB Cream and the Supergoop CC cream*. These give a light coverage to the skin and last all day, as well as giving you some sun protection.
To add some color to my skin Nars Laguna Bronzer is something I reach for daily, it gives the perfect color without looking orange and has a lovely satin finish.
On my nails I love a bit of coral and one of my favorite shades is Essie Cute As A Button. This is the perfect summer shade in my opinion, has a good formulation and lasts well.
Lastly you always need some salt spray at hand for the locks. The Surf Spray from Bumble & Bumble* is amazing, it adds texture and body to the hair without weighing it down.What more could you ask for?
Do let me know what your summer essentials would be? Do I need to add anything?
