We most definitely have our beauty staples, especially when it comes to summer skin and makeup! We are not ones to spend an arm and a leg on our beauty products (our clothes). Of course, we both have some products we will spend more on, but for the most part, we like to keep it affordable!
Best summer hair care products
These are some of our must haves for summer hair and beauty that we use on a daily basis. Since we don’t like to wash our hair often (as you all may know), we rely on a good and affordable dry shampoo!
This one from Batiste is a great basic dry shampoo because it has a fresh scent, works on all hair types, and easy to pack in your luggage to prevent you from washing your hair every single day! Nobody has time for that! They also have it in a tropical scent, which we love as well.
To protect our hair from all the heating tools we use like blow drying, flat ironing, and curling, we use this Bumble and Bumble Invisible Oil Heat Primer to condition and also prime our hair and prevent our hair from being damaged when we use all of the heat on it. It also comes in a travel size!
To use it, you just spray on wet our dry hair all over before using any heating tool! It also has a great smell.
Best summer skincare
For skin, we ALWAYS use a sunscreen before anything else. We put on this Bare Republic sunscreen that is paraben and cruelty free. It has no synthetic fragrances, and actually has a really yummy coconut smell to it. It is not heavy and thick and is water resistant, which is so important for summer temps!
If you’re into spray sunscreens more (which we are most of the time), their spray version is great for applying to your body!
It also comes in a stick version, so it is easy to apply on-the-go, and throw in your bag.
Best summer makeup products
For makeup musts, we use this Beautyblender makeup applicator for SO many things! It gives you a really even application, and we use it for our foundation, setting powder, and more! You can also use it to apply highlighter and blush, too.
You can also clean it with some gentle face wash or mild soap every time you use it, so no need to worry about it collecting bacteria! We swear by it.
Even though we have lash extensions, we still wear mascara on our bottom lashes. Samantha had to remove her lashes for a short time, so she tried out this Lash Paradise Mascara and fell in LOVE! We were surprised at how it left our lashes so long and full, and we use it on our bottom lashes every day!
It also comes in a primer that helps you to achieve even longer and fuller lashes. For this one, you just apply it before your mascara!
For a good nude lip color, this Revlon lipstick in “Nude Attitude” is a great basic for summer!
Best perfume for summer
Last but not least, you have to smell fresh and clean! We have always been big fragrance girls, and so we never leave the house without putting on some perfume. I think we learned that from our mom 😉
This Marc Jacobs Daisy perfume is one of our favorites, and has been for years! The smell is the perfect amount of floral, and the bottle is stunning, too!
We found all of these great beauty buys at Walmart. They have the best selection of all things beauty, and if you need anything last minute, they offer free in-store pickup, or free shipping on orders $35 or more, AND free returns!
