Now go grab your pen and paper while I sit here and wait. Go on, I am waiting....
Good now that your ready to take notes I am diving in, lets get started:
1. Sunscreen - Body and Face- Neutrogena Wet Skin ($19)
- Now we all need to protect ourselves from the harsh damage the sun can do to us humans. Therefore a sunscreen is important. I use this Neutrogena Wet Skin sunscreen for ALL over my body, including face. Why you may ask? Am I crazy? Well no, I'm not crazy. First off this amazing sunscreen is sweat proof, waterproof, and can be applied to wet or dry skin. So right there it's convenient. It is also oil free, PABA free and hypoallergenic. Plus it's dermatological tested. Which means I can use this also on my FACE! BONUS! This brand of sunscreen comes in 30SPF or 60SPF UVA/UVB protection. I have the 60SPF because you just never know. This baby is a bit more on the pricey side but well worth it since it has a lot of benefits. You can find this at your local drug stores.
2. Lip Balm- EOS ($3-$4)
- I don't leave my house without a lip balm any time of the year period. But when you are on the beach or at the cottage in the sun your lips can tend to dry out and crack....well at least mine do for some odd reason. So I always make sure I slather on a lip balm. It's preferred to use a balm with SPF especially if you are out in the sun, but even the EOS balms are great, they are 100% natural and 95% organic. They are affordable and their scents are great! You can find these also at your local drug stores.
3. Sunglasses- Aldo ($12)
- With the brightness going on outside, you need to have at least 1 pair of sunglasses. Every time your outside you must put them on to protect those eyes.
4. Bright Nail polish- Kit Cosmetics ($4 each)
- Ladies, you must crack open your bright nail polishes! This is the time of year to flaunt them, wear them, enjoy them! I have so many brights that my spring/summer is filled with different brights weekly! These can be found at your local drug store. Very affordable too! :)
5. BB Cream- Garnier ($15)
- For those of you who need some coverage on the face or to just even out your skin tone. A BB Cream is a great summer time option. Most BB creams come with SPF protection so you don't have to worry about that. This one is my ultimate favorites, and it can be found at the drug stores. Which means more affordable than most high end BB creams. This one is very light weight, and provides coverage, enough to even out your skin tone. Make sure ladies you get the oily combination skin type one so that it is oil free.
6. Bronzing Powder - MAC Bronzing Powder "Refined Golden" ($30 CDN)
- Everyone needs a bronzing powder for the summer time. My current favorite is the MAC cosmetics bronzer. Yes I know it is a bit pricey. Another affordable option at the drug store can be Milani Baked bronzer's or the Wet n' Wild Bronzer's. Or even the Physicians Formula Bronzing powders are great as well! But the one I use lately all the time is my MAC one. It does have some golden flex to it, but it really just helps your skin glow like JLO!
7. Bright Lipstick- Milani "Rose Hip" ($5-$7)
- With the warm weather, we think of tropical colors. Well I know I do. That makes me want to always be wearing a bright ass lipstick. It's fun, it's colorful, why not? The best affordable bright lipstick I own and enjoy is the Milani Color Statement Lipstick in the shade "Rose Hip". This is basically a HOT PINK and its gorgeous! Again these can be found at your drug stores. In Canada they are found at the Superstores.
Well ladies, that was it for Summer Essentials for Makeup and Face. Leave me comments to let me know if you want to see Summer Essentials for Hair and Skin.
