Sunscreen should be at the top of your list all the time, but especially during the summer. Elta MD's sunscreen is always recommended by derms and is great for sensitive skin types.
Gel formulas are my favorite during the summer. Because when the weather is scorching hot, I do not want to be wearing anything super heavy. This gel is my forever go-to since it's so cooling, refreshing, hydrating, and fast-absorbing.
This sunscreen spray features UVA/UVB protection plus the antioxidant benefits of vitamin E. It's oil-free, water-resistant, and reef-friendly.
When you've been out in the sun for hours your skin can feel hot, red, and irritated. Use this after-sun lotion to moisturize and calm your skin.
Micellar water is another one of those refreshing skincare products I rely on during the summer. It doesn't dry out my skin and is a quick way to clean your face.
If your skin needs intense hydration, apply this mask that deals with redness and dehydration. It's formulated with vitamins A, C, and E, evening primrose, and fruit and seed oils.
CeraVe's daily moisturizing lotion helps restore the skin barrier while also protecting against harmful UVA/UVB rays. It's helpful if you sometimes forget to put a layer of sunscreen on before you head out the door.
Spritz this facial mist on for a little pick-me-up. It can help soothe the skin if it's irritated or hot.
Heavy makeup can be a bit of a burden when temps are high. For lightweight coverage, try a BB cream. It blurs imperfections and enhances the skin while also hydrating, protecting, and brightening the skin.
You can also opt for a concealer to touch-up some spots instead of a full face of product. This one from E.l.f. Cosmetics Is lightweight, long-wearing, and hydrating.
And if you prefer to go with a foundation, this matte one from Nyx is a lightweight and waterproof option. The creamy formula goes on smoothly and lasts for up to 24 hours.
Sweat and water won't bring this mascara down. Plus, it will volumize your lashes like whoa.
A primer and setting spray will keep your makeup in place even when things get sweaty. Milani's spray is a three-in-one, as it primes, corrects, and sets. It also leaves you with a dewy, glowy complexion.
There's something about the summer that makes me want glossy lips every day. This formula smooths and plumps lips while boosting hydration via hyaluronic acid.
Formulated with green tea extract, organic sunflower seed oil, and vitamin E, this mask will revive and nourish the hair after it's been out in the sun. It also has a refreshing fragrance of neroli, ylang-ylang, and cistus.
Chlorine isn’t beneficial to hair, so if you're spending a lot of time at the pool, you might want to get a shampoo that treats and prevents any damage. This clarifying shampoo removes chlorine, minerals, and buildup.
The frizz can be real when it's hot out. Try this oil that reduces frizz, adds UV protection, and provides shine and moisture.
Even if you can't get to the beach every day, this summer this mist can still give you those vibes. The lightweight spray features broad-spectrum SPF 30 protection and monoi oil to prevent UV-related hair fading and damage.
Klorane's waterproof oil will protect the hair from UV rays, salt, sand, and chlorine. Spritz it on dry or damp hair as much as needed before, during, and after sun exposure.
