Just Because It's Summer: Products

...
doesn't mean you can't look pretty 
without protecting yourself.
...

Here are my favorite products or products that seem will work great for the summer.


1.Neutrogena Sport Face Sunblock lotion SPF 70+ 

This sunblock lotion not only protects your face from harmful uva and uvb rays, it won't clog pores or cause breakouts {which most sunblock face lotions cause}. It is also waterproof, lets your skin breath, and has a clean feeling.
Price: $9.99



2.Physicians Formula Healthy Wear Bronzer SPF 50
Physicians Formula Healthy Wear Bronzer SPF 50 provides a natural glow and bronzed look yet it protects you with an SPF of 50 without any greasy finished look. Instead of damaging your skin it helps brighten the skin and diminish the appearance of sunspots. 
Price: $14.95

3.MAC Tinted Lip Conditioner SPF 15
Not only does it condition your lips, it also adds protection to them throughout the day and gives them a nice tinted lip color.
Price: $15.00
  
4.Neutrogena Mineral Sheers Foundation SPF 20
Honestly based on reviews I've read, go more with a powder foundation because liquid can melt in the summer but hey you can also use liquid in the winter. Although I go more for the powder since the liquid reviews aren't good. Based on the powder foundation, it has a nice sheer, clean, and oil-free feeling on your skin & soft minerals & SPF 20.
Price: Powder-$11.99/Liquid-N/A

5.Bareminals SPF 15 Foundation
Again, SPF is the best to go with when choosing out skin-related products. Basically this foundation is said to be weightless, flawless coverage, and lasts up to eight hours. Reviews were said that it improved skin appearance, it's radiant, and leaves skin smooth/soft. Note:The picture above is the matte foundation & the description is for the original. 
Price: $27.00 

6.Lancome Hypnose Waterproof Mascara
A splash on the pool can leave you with raccoon eyes thats why being waterproof is a plus on this mascara because it adds extra length to your lashes,provides great lash separation, and leaves your lashes defined.
Price: $26.00

7.Neutrogena Ultimate Sport Sunblock Spray SPF 100+
This sunblock spray is waterproof,sweatproof, and is a breathable lightweight spray. Reviews state that it is very resistant to most activities{as it is ultimate sport} and reduces from sunburns.
Price: $10.79 

8.Jergens Natural Glow Daily Moisturizer SPF 20

If you want a natural glow on your face then this daily moisturizer with an SPF of 20 is just for you. It can give a safe and beautiful natural glow while protecting you from harmful UVA and UVB rays.
Price: $7.87

Peaches, Florals, & Whites

An outfit of the day. I really loved this outfit I recently wore because it contained a pastel peach color, perfect for the summer. Don't be afraid to play with your pastels for the summer. I wanted to add whites because it makes the outfit look "soft" and the blouse I wore was perfect since it has amazing detailing, neck lining, and a cute cut-out at the back of the shirt. To show the back cut I simply decided to raise my hair in a top knot bun. As for the accessories I added my floral charm bracelet {giving it an earthy vibe} and my white watch {a simple & clean look}. My shoes were not shown enough in the pictures above but they were white/beige sandals with a white floral shape statement embellishment.



Shirt: Banana Republic
Shorts: Forever 21
Sandals: Banana Republic
Earrings: American Eagle
Floral Bracelet: Aero
Watch: Francessca's Collections









A Walk At The Beach

It's nice to take a walk at the beach during sunset.
I guess it's the breathtaking scenery, sound of waves,
feeling of wind running past your face, &
smell of a salty ocean.

     This was what my day consisted of.
