Summer beauty essentials

This article has happened as a result of my packing and shopping for summer vacation, which is getting closer and closer every minute and I finally got to the stage when only few hours separate me from being reunited with the ocean.Because summer for me is like a big event, where I don't care about work, school or anything other than spending long nights and days with my friends at the pool, going for trips, sipping fancy cocktails and eating lot of fruit, shopping of some kind had to happen in order for me to slip smoothly into the summer mood and enjoy it as much as possible. 

However, whilst summer is about having fun and catching tan, lot of its factors can be damaging to our body if we don't take a good care of it. Dry skin and hair, sunburn, oily skin and many more things can make our summer less enjoyable and painful. So whether you can't wait for the summer season to start, or you'd rather stay home with your air-condition on, I assure you, after this post you will want to hit the beach or pool and make the most out of the long, warm nights that are to come. In this post I put together some magical beauty essentials that are a MUST for this summer and will make your life 100% easier, your skin smoother and your body will thank you for so much care you have given it.



LUSH R&B hair remedy

This is a ultimate heaven created by lush. Not only it smells amazing but it makes your hair look smooth and energised while moisturising it in deep. Perfect and compact to take with you on a vacation and especially effective if you love spending lot of time in the salty water.


Salty beach look spray

On the other hand, this salty spray is perfect when you are not currently close to the sea, so it's impossible to get wavy "beach look" hair naturally. I use it all the time because I love my hair to look messy and as I just left the sea.

LUSH ocean salt face scrub

Another marvellous product from LUSH is the ocean salt scrub! With a baby blue colour of the ocean  and incredible smell, this scrub will make your face smooth and glowing like never before. You can forget about oily skin, red spots or black dots because this is the answer to all your problems.


BODY SHOP piňa colada body scrub and lotion

Something new from creators of Body shop is the Piňa colada collection, perfect for cold summer showers or long baths. I have personally bought the body scrub which is amazing and makes your skin smooth and smelling like pineapples and coconuts and the lotion, which is an ideal finish for your shower session.

 L'oreal mattifier

We surely all love the fact that temperature is stuck somewhere between 28 and 33 and that we can soak up in the sun as much as we want. However what we don't want is to have our face looking shiny and oily and since it's so hot these days, it's almost impossible to maintain a matte face. Few drops of this magical transparent liquid and your face is perfect again. Great as a base before applying foundation.

 L'oreal hair oil

I call it quick fix.I carry one everywhere I go because whenever my ends get a bit dry and shapeless I simply spread a bit of this oil through my hair with my fingers to get back the smooth hair I want. One of the best things that ever happened to me.

Bobbi Brown hydration cream

Sooo.. No bullshit, Bobbi Brown makes wonderful cosmetics, even though a bit pricey for a student, but this hydration cream is a TOTAL MUST! Keeps my face hydrated after long days in the sun and makes it glow and fresh for every occasion.Please try it, you will thank me later.

Victoria's Secret Bombshells in bloom body mist

To finish, this particular body mist from Victoria's Secret is the best smelling product they have ever made. I use it instead of a perfume in the summer, because it's really light and fruity and its smell is not too strong so you can use it anytime- at the beach, in the gym, on a night out...simply everywhere.Oh and men love the smell too!
