Hellooo Summer Bombshells!!

It’s hot, it’s sticky, and oh so sexy out there.. better get prepared! You never know when you’ll get stranded on an island with a hot guy! Time to prepare your summer beauty survival kit!

Great news! The messy look is soo in right now! So put away the flat irons and the thick foundation. This summer we get to chill… and still be hot! All you need are these 7 Summer essentials to look fab no matter where you end up this summer!

 

 

 

 

 

1. PROTECTION: No, not THAT kind!! Well, maybe… Anyway! I know you’re tired of hearing it (so am I) – but this is your survival kit, and SPF is necessary! Sunscreen is so important. You want to look young forever, right? – Who doesn’t! So use it!

For face, I love the tinted SPF moisturizers! Slather on to protect your beautiful face from the sun and it will replace your normal cakey foundation with a nice glow! YAY! You’ll find tons of great ones at Sephora, but if you’re on a budget go for Cover Girl’s CG Smoothers (available just about anywhere.)

 

2. COVER UP: A great concealer kit is a definite must-have! With the right color palette you’ll be ready for any beauty emergency! My fave concealer for the summer is actually sold at TARGET! Sonia Kashuk has a really great kit. It has three colors and a translucent powder. Use the green tinted concealer to cover any redness such as pimpes and rosacea, The salmon color is perfect for dark under-eye circles and you can blend colors to match your skin tone for any additional imperfections you may have!

 

 

 

3. COLOR: Add a touch of color while on the go with a lip/cheek stain.

I LOVE Benefit’s” Benetint” lip and cheek stain. It’s so convenient and comes in two great shades: The original rose-tinted color and a poppy pink for more fair skin. It’s kiss-proof and the sexiest flush you can get from a bottle! Just dab and blend onto cheeks and lips for a perfectly natural glow that lasts for hours!

 

 

 

4. HAIR ACCESSORIES: No matter where you are and what the weather conditions, your hair can always look great, as long as you’re prepared with the right hair accessories. The hairstyles right now are messy and fun and so easy to do. All you need is one or two small hair accessories on hand to turn an unruly do into a style statement! Use bobby pins to twist up hair into a loose bun. Keep hair-ties handy for quick braids and ponytails. (The side braid is so hot right now!) For straight hair, it’s great to carry a head band to pull hair away from the face! These hairstyles are so easy, you can whip your hair into shape at a moment’s notice!

5. BLOTTING PAPERS: Never let ‘em see you sweat! Keep blotting papers close at hand at all times! Just blot face with these babies to soak up shiny spots! No need to spend much money on these - you can get these at any CVS/Drugstore!

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
6. WATERPROOF MASCARA: I love Lancome’s “Hypnose: Drama” mascara. It’s super waterproof and really amps up eyelashes. Although you want a natural beach look, your eyes should always command the most attention. Just swipe this on before running out and you won’t need any liner or shadow!

7. SUNGLASSES: Keep your favorite pair on hand at all times for a quick cover. If you don’t have time for anything else, shades are always a beauty savior!
 
 
Yep, that’s all you need! Now you’ll look smokin’ hot even in the most extreme summer conditions!

Enjoy your hotness! Peace, Love, and Sexiness!
