What's In My Beach Bag.

By Brightowngirl @Brightowngirl

I'm sitting in my brothers back Garden in Espinho which is just outside of Porto in Portugal at the moment and I thought I would write a post about What's in my beach bag. I love these posts and so I am hoping you do too.
First, excuse the state of my bag. I have had it years it was a free bag from Elle and has been a fantastic bag that I have used for everything.
Getting onto the beauty products I of course packed my sun cream, I am loving this one from Institut Esthederm, I have no idea how it works but I have not burnt at all which is rare for me as I'm so fair. I will be writing a full post on this soon. I also have the La Roche Posay Dry Touch Cream Gel SPF50* to use of my face and the Uvistat SPF 50 lip balm to keep my lips protected. I bought my sun hat when I got out here from the market, I always get a burnt scalp so thought this would be perfect to protect my head and my hair. I carry my camera around for any snaps I decide to take and also my headphones for my iPad (which isn't pictured as I used to take the photo) to listen to music or an audio book. I also am reading The Rose Petal Beach by Dorothy Koomsom who is my favorite author. You can't beat burying your head in a bit of chick lit whilst sunbathing. Last but not least I have my sunglasses which I got free somewhere, I never buy expensive sunglasses as I always lose them or break them. 
What do you take to the beach?
