So I did my post about my spring break essentials and realized I missed a huge part of my essentials! That is the beauty part... if you didn't notice from the title haha. Let's get started here are my spring break beauty essentials:
1. Chapstick with SPF: it is super important to make sure your lips don't get burned. That is probably one of the first burns you can get so be weary.
2. Tinted Moisturizer: tinted moisturizer is perfect for the days on the beach where you just want a little coverage. My favorite is the Clinique Moisture Surge Tinted Moisture. It has SPF too which is always good.
3. Aloe Lotion: for after the beach aloe lotion is the way to go. The gel is not even comparable to lotion. The lotion is much better for all skin types. There is no greasy residue and you can get on with your day,
4. Face Sunscreen: I have found the best luck in using a different sunscreen that is specifically for my face. The Neutrogena Clear Face Sunscreen does not break you out easily while offering the protection your face needs from the sun. I have carried this in my beach bag since freshman year. It's sort of expensive, but totally worth it. You can buy it at Target and drugstores.
5. Waterproof Mascara: This one may seem obvious, but finding the perfect waterproof mascara can actually be challenging. My current favorite is the Maybelline Falsies Waterproof Mascara. I use this everyday and have found it is great for long wear which is needed for sitting out on the beach all day.
6. Bronzer: Typically when you go to the beach you get darker. Perhaps your foundation doesn't match so perfectly anymore. This is where bronzer comes in. It is the ideal beauty product for the beach because it makes your skin tone more even when you are going out to dinner when you actually have to/want to wear makeup. I recommend the NARS bronzer in the color laguna.

The Falsies mascara is one of my favorites! I need to try that tinted moisturizer.
ReplyDeleteI bought it over Christmas break and wear it everyday for class when I don't want to wear real makeup. Definitely pick some up!
DeleteLove this post! I always have to have chapstick when at the beach. My lips get so dry and chapped!

Seriously same! The Chapstick with SPF is a lifesaver.
DeleteGreat post. I usually don't bother with mascara at all if I will be by the pool or beach. Tinted moisturizer is a perfect idea, I mainly juse use some concealer. Sunscreen is essential and I always use spf moisturizer in the morning everyday :)
ReplyDeleteThank you!! It's such a good habit to just have something with SPF all of the time.
