Summer Essentials

So as the weather has suddenly got AMAZING, I thought it was only right that I did a "Summer Essentials" post.  Below are, what I think, summer beauty essentials and are the basic beauty products a girl needs during this heat wave!


A good hairbrush is so important, especially when you're probable going to be tying your hair up a lot.  Tangle Teezers are great as they successfully get out knots with next to no pain!
(Boots, Superdrug etc.)

Us pale English roses sadly do not tan that well in the English sun and so this St. Tropez gradual tan moisturiser is perfect as it's ever so gradual and not like a fake tan at all!
(Boots, John Lewis etc.)

No girl wants to wear a lot of make up in this heat as it just results in it melting off or your skin getting terrible so I just use a simple concealer (Benefit Boi-ing), a powder to stop the shine (Benefit Hello Flawless pressed powder) and a slick of mascara (Benefit They're Real!).  Perfect for your skin and the sun!

I'm in love with these cat eye shaped sunglasses as they're so feminine but a bit different.  These particular ones are from River Island.

Keep those wispy bits of hair from sticking to your face and neck by using a strong hairspray.  I used to use one that my hair salon provided but that was getting pricey and so I switched to this one.  My hair needs a good strong hairspray and so this one is perfect!  It holds my hair in place and then brushes out easily!
(Boots, Superdrug etc.)

Nothing worse than getting dehydrated in this heat and I find that this water bottle is like my lifesaver.  It's a 1.6L bottle and so I make sure I get enough water a day to stay hydrated!
(Amazon, John Lewis etc.)

Add to the bright weather with bright nails!  These are just a couple of my favourite ones (I have about 50 nail polishes!)  Another way to make a big impression with your nails is to mix and match them, go for alternate colour pop nails!
(Topshop, Boots, Superdrug etc.)
