My Top 10 Products for Summer

Since summer is upon us, that means the heavy caked on makeup is not always the best choice and skincare also changes. Therefore, I have decided to share here some of my top 10 products for the summer time and why I like them.

Boscia Tsubaki Lotion



During the summer you don't want to use a heavy moisturizer because it will make your face look really shiny and greasy and will practically melt off your face in the heat. However, this is a nice light moisturizer that also adds the most beautiful natural glow to your face. It's absolutely perfect for those no makeup looks with the perfect glow without it being a chunky glitter.

Marcelle CC Cream



CC creams are a great alternative to heavy foundations during the summer. They still provide a nice light coverage while also... There are many great CC creams, like the IT Cosmetics CC cream, but the Marcelle one is a great cheaper alternative!

Peter Thomas Roth Cucumber Face Mask



This is a great mask for the summer time because cucumber is very calming for the skin and this mask is also nice and cooling on the face. In addition, it's even better and more cooling if you but it in the fridge first! There is one major downside to this mask though and that's the price. If you are on a budget I would not recommend this product, but if you want to treat yourself this is a great mask.

Living Proof Restore Perfecting Spray



With the summer there is a lot of swimming and damage to your hair with chlorine and salt water so it is also important to take care of your hair too. I just got this recently in a Sephora Favorites set and I love it already. Since I have thin hair it does not take much for my hair to get tangled and knotted up and this easily gets the tangles out while also conditioning my hair, which is great for the summer when your hair needs a little bit of extra care.

Dry Shampoo


With the heat of the summer and sweat that comes with it, I find it a lot easier for my hair to look greasy. I've recently started using and love the new Ouai Dry Shampoo Foam. However, another dry shampoo that I've used and highly recommend is the Living Proof Perfect Hair Day Dry Shampoo, the only thing is you have to make sure you really work it in so there is no white residue.

Tarte Blush & Glow Blush & Highlighter




This is a new product to my collection and it is a part of Tarte's Double Duty Beauty line. The shade I have is Peach glow and the blush is absolutely beautiful and not too bright on the cheeks. The highlight though is absolutely blinding and beautiful. The only downside is that there is only one other shade option so there is not a whole lot of variety for different skin tones.

Face Mists


Face mists are great for the summer, they are nice and refreshing and hydrating for the summer. I have found over time that I really like both of Tarte's face mists, but I have recently started using the Caudalie Beauty Elixir and really like that as well.

SPF


SPF is probably the most important thing to have in your collection during the summer, especially if you are as pale and prone to sunburns like me!! There are two Facial SPFs that I have been using lately, the first is the Peter Thomas Roth Sunscreen with SPF 50. I love the high SPF in this sunscreen, the only issue is that if you use the slightest bit too much it will be very greasy looking on your face. The second SPF I've been using lately is the Tarte Tarteguard SPF 30. Although it is a lower SPF, it is not as greasy as the Peter Thomas Roth one and it is also a cheaper option.

Too Faced Chocolate Soleil Matte Bronzer




Everyone loves a good bronzed glow especially during the summer. I've heard a lot of people loving the Too Faced Chocolate Soleil Bronzer and I recently received a sample and have also been loving it. Another great option for a Bronzer, from the drugstore, is the Physicians Formula Butter Bronzer.

Fresh Sugar Lip Treatment


These Fresh Sugar Lip Treatments were one of the first higher end products I ever bought from Sephora and I have loved them ever since. They are very comfortable on the lips, while also treating your lips and adding a nice layer of colour.


Thank you all for viewing this post and I will have another one up soon!!
