Summer may be the most relaxing season for many, but it surely is the season that requires the most maintenance! From sunscreen to haircare, here are the top products you should bring to the pool or beach while enjoying the sun this summer. —Maddie Clerides
The Monoi Oil by Yves Rocher is a delectable body oil that you will want to constantly reapply – it truly smells like vacation in a bottle. Apply this oil after you’ve been in the sun to provide much-needed hydration and shine. The formula isn’t too greasy which makes it especially wearable.
The best of both an oil and sunscreen come together in Kopari’s Sun Shield Body Glow SPF 50. This trendy product will make you glisten on the pool deck, but also provides high SPF coverage. The bottle is gorgeous which also means it looks perfect in your poolside pics.
Whether it’s the chlorine or seawater, swimming is notoriously tough on hair. To beat those nasty tangles after swimming, use a hair oil. A luxurious option that doubles as a delectable perfume is the Davines OI Hair Oil. A little goes a long way, so this bottle will last – plus the smell is intoxicating.
If you’re hitting up a pool party or a beach club, sunscreen with shimmer is a pretty and fun way to stay protected. The Coppertone Glow with Shimmer Sunscreen Lotion is SPF 50 and leaves the prettiest rosy shimmer on the skin that is ideal for photos.
Be sure to brush your hair intermittently throughout the day to avoid nasty tangles later when you get home. Wetbrush makes the best brushes for brushing hair when it’s at its most breakable. They have small styles that will fit in whatever tote you’re using.
Don’t forget your lips! Lip balm with SPF is a must when having fun in the sun, as our lips can suffer sun damage and burn so easily. Goop’s Lipscreen is a cute and trendy SPF 40 product that you will want to keep reapplying throughout the day after drinking and chatting.
The Surfproof Hydrating Setting Spray by caliray is an innovative product for the girl who needs to maintain a little makeup by the pool. This ultrafine mist provides hydration to the face, but also locks in any makeup you may be wearing.
If you accidentally got a little too much sun, it’s important to treat the skin right away. The 3 in 1 Moisturizing Lotion and After Sun by Yves Rocher is very soothing and hydrating to ensure your skin can recover.
The Anthelios Mineral Tinted Ultra-Fluid Face Sunscreen by La Roche-Posay frequently sells out during the summer, and for good reason. It has SPF 50 protection, doesn’t break out the skin and can be worn under makeup. The tinted formula provides a little coverage which provides a beautiful but natural sheen to the skin.
If reapplying liquid sunscreen to your face doesn’t sound appealing, try the Shiseido Clear Sunscreen Stick. This sunscreen is perfect for travel due to its compact size and is effortless to use. It glides onto the skin easily leaving no residue or white cast. It also sits well under makeup and can be taken on the plane without taking up precious liquid space.
