- Morning Burst Facial Scrub:
- I love the citrus scent of this scrub--it wakes you up after a night of going out with friends.
- It's perfect to start the day or or to end it by scrubbing off layers of sunscreen. And it doesn't bother my sensitive skin.
- I use it to exfoliate my feet, too.
- Golden Sunset Shadow Palette:
- This is one of my favorite basic palettes, and has some dupes for the UD Naked palette.
- This can easily transition from day to night, depending on the desired look.
- Use the darker shades together for a quick beach bronzer
- or as a temporary fix to hide roots.
- NYC Long Wearing Polish in Times Square: It's coral and a favorite color for summer.
- Need more splash? Use this as a base coat and add a coat of glitter polish on top.
- Use with darker colors for an ombre effect.
- Stripe with a pink shade for a color blocked look.
- Paint bobby pins with the polish to add a pop of color to your hairstyles.
- Coconut Lime Body Splash: Nothing makes me think more of the beach scent-wise than coconut.
- To keep the beach on your mind, even if you can't be there, spritz a little on your pillow before going to sleep.
- Or spray in your hair after a long night out if you're too tired to wash your hair (I'm guilty of this...it takes FOREVER to wash/dry/etc.).
- I spray it in my car, too.
- WonderWaves: This is one of my favorite ways to get beachy waves.
- Spray on wet hair, conditioned hair, and scrunch with a tee shirt (don't use a towel; the shirt prevents frizz).
- Or spray and then sleep in a French braid for waves.
- After hair has dried, use a texturizing paste/wax to define pieces in hair.
- Extras: some of these would be over my $10 limit and optional!
- a cute beach bag to pack all of the goodies in
- a Summer Music Mix perfect for the beach
- beachy-smelling candle (coconut for me!!)
- lip gloss with spf
- sunscreen...obvious reasons
- cute sunnies
What would you add to the Beauty Beach in a Bag?
What a fun idea!
ReplyDeleteI LOVE coconut lime anything. It's such a fabulous, beachy combo.
The beachy wave spray stuff is awesome. I was buying it pretty regularly but now I make it myself! I use a mixture of water, sea salt, essential oil, and a tiny bit of leave-in conditioner. Works great!
I remember gold sunset, I used to use that and shimmering sands all through high school, I should go pick those up!
ReplyDeletenice products, clean and clear is my fave here!
ReplyDeleteIt’s a GIRL Thing

ReplyDeleteThat's a really sweet idea. And I bought my sister the UD Naked Palette 2 so now she has both. Lucky girl...
ReplyDeleteMmmm will definitely be picking up the coconut lime spray! The beach is probably not in my near future, but at least I can close my eyes and pretend!

Thanks for the tips! I never know exactly what to pack.
ReplyDeleteI've been on the look out for a "beachy waves" product since I can't seem to find John Frieda "Beach Waves" that I adored :(
ReplyDeleteThis sounds great!! Your friend is going to love this!! The only thing I can think of would be hair ties if she has longer hair or a book.

First of all, I love the idea of a little gift pack. So fun! Second, I love that type of wave spray. I have one right now that is a little different. Since my hair is naturally curly, I often use the spray the second day after a wash to refresh my curls.
ReplyDeleteoooohhh thanks for sharing. i only have sunblock and lipgloss in mine. but i def need something for my hair :)
ReplyDeleteyou are the best for doing this for your friend... i'm sure she's going to love it!
ReplyDeleteMagazines!
ReplyDeletethis is such a cute idea! i would say: hair clips, maybe a detangler, lip gloss, sunscreen and waterproof eyeliner! :D

ReplyDeleteI must try this Wonder Waves, I always need a product like this at the lake! Definitely spf chapstick/lip gloss is a MUST! And maybe a leave in protectant for your hair from UV rays.
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful gift idea. I love the morning burst facial scrub, it really does wake you up! And that palette looks perfect for the beach and summer. I haven't heard of WonderWaves but that sounds like just the product for me!
