My summer beauty products are definitely different than those I use in the winter. Due to the change in weather, the sun exposure, and the heat, I use different products. These are my top 5 summertime beauty products!



Drunk Elephant Umbra Sheer Physical Daily Defense Broad Spectrum Sunscreen SPF 30, $34
This sheer sunscreen is free of damaging ingredients and full of antioxidants. It adds moisture back into the skin that most sunscreens draw out, and is lightweight. This sunscreen has zinc oxide, which is great for sensitive skin, like mine. It also contains astaxanthin-rich algae extract, sunflower sprout extract, and grape juice extract, to soothe the skin and calm redness.

DryBar Prep Rally Prime & Prep Detangler, $23
I've been letting my hair naturally dry this summer, but I still need some added protection from heat and damage. I have been using this detangling spray for a couple months and have noticed a major change in my hair. This spray includes Biotin, Vitamin B, and Vitamin D, which increases strength of the hair, nourishes the scalp, and adds in moisture. It is cruel free and smells AMAZING, with hints of ginger, mint, and sandalwood.

Whole Foods Market Organic Pomegranate Orange Lip Balm, $1.99
This chapstick was a "need cash back purchase" at Whole Foods one afternoon. And it was the BEST purchase. This all natural chapstick smells and tastes amazing. It has cured my summer time dry lips and actually made them feel moisturized for hours after putting it on. I always struggle with dryness, so I am glad I finally found a balm that helps.

Benefit Cosmetics Hoola Cream-to-Powder Quickie Contour Stick, $28
This bronze cream contouring stick turns to powder after application. It is a matte bronzer that helps create a contoured face without feeling heavy. As someone who didn't know how to contour well, this stick has made it super easy. I love the cream to powder formula because it creates a perfect glow without melting on my face in the summer heat!

Clinique Soft-Pressed Powder Blusher in Soft Pink, $23
This lightweight blush creates the perfect sun kissed look! It is buildable and develops a radiant glow.  It is compact, comes with a mirror and an applicator, making it ideal to throw in your bag and go for a night out. It doesn't have a shimmer to it like most blushes, so it allows for a natural, sheer look.
