These are some of my top beauty and skin care favorites for this summer!
*note: I don’t add pictures to my posts but I do link the products! Sorry
The Tatcha Water Cream is so far my ultimate summer favorite! It glides onto skin so perfectly and absorbs just as the name suggests, like water. It’s perfect for my combination skin and doesn’t make me break out. The water cream comes at a steep price of $68 but I believe that it is worth every penny.
#2 Lancome LA BASE PRO Perfecting Makeup Primer
This Lancome primer is one of my must haves. I first got to test it out as part of a sample of a purchase and I instantly fell in love. This primer helps my makeup apply on super smooth and it also smooths out my pores so effortlessly.
#3 Chanel Vitalumiere Aqua Foundation
This foundation has got to be my #1 foundation. I love it so much that I currently have three bottles sitting in my makeup drawer. This Chanel foundation is absolutely perfect for hot summer days because it’s so light but it does give you a good amount of coverage. Also, this foundation doesn’t break me out which I love, love, LOVE because I have extremely acne-prone combination skin. Overall, this foundation is a must buy if it lands in your budget range. (it costs a steep price of $50 for 1 fl. oz.)
#4 Mario Badescu Facial Spray with Aloe, Herbs and Rosewater
This Mario Badescu spray may be my favorite beauty/skincare item from his entire collection. It’s perfect for a blazing summer day when you need a cool off. I simply take this out of my bag and give it a few spritz all over my face and BOOM. Refreshed and ready for the rest of the day. Another reason I love this spray is because of its wonderful, cooling smell. I simply adore the smell of roses and aloe. Also, the color is to DIE for! Who wouldn’t want this pretty pink bottle of refreshing wonderfulness in their bag?
#5 L’Oreal Voluminous Lash Paradise Waterproof Mascara
Last but not least, this one’s a definite need. I’m out under the sun all day playing sports and have been struggling to find a waterproof, sweatproof mascara that doesn’t give me the dreaded panda eyes and it seems that I have found the one. The holy grail. THE mascara. L’Oreal has truly come out with a masterpiece mascara. This mascara has stayed on for two full hours of being drenched in sweat. It also keeps my lashes perfectly curled. What more could I ask for? The answer to that question is nothing. This mascara is truly a life saver.
