Just a few of the summertime *essentials* that I love and use often!

The thought process behind this post was imagining that I was sitting poolside with a friend and telling her all the things I love and use in the summer. So, without further adieu, here are my summertime essentials!

Peter Thomas Roth Max Mineral Tinted Sunscreen Broad Spectrum SPF 45 – I use this so often and never have a single bit of evidence of sun through it.

Straw Hat – It took me a little while to gain confidence to wear a hat like this but now I can barely go to the pool without it.

Sun Bun Scalp and Hair Mist – nothing is worse than a burnt scalp right where you part your hair!
A woven belt for flowy dresses – I’ve worn mine a few times already on different dresses.

SPF 30 lip balm – this applies so nicely and I love that it protects my lips.

Cloud Sandals – whether it’s by the water or with your favorite casual outfit, nothing beats the comfort of these slides.

Loving Tan 2 HR Express Self Tanning Mousse in Medium – the *best* color for pink/cool undertones! There isn’t even a hint of orange color with this tanner!

Nest Seville Orange Perfume Oil – I love a fruity fragrance, and this one is truly summer in a bottle. You can see more about my favorite perfumes here.
