My 5 Favorite Summer Beauty Items
My 5 Favorite Summer Beauty Items
We are headed out on a getaway today, and while packing, I started to think about what beauty products I could not leave behind and some of my favorite items I’ve been using this summer. Once I find something I love, it’s hard for me to branch out and try something new, but I’ve been heavily influenced this season and wanted to share a few of my favorites with you!
In case you missed it, I previously shared how I use packing cubes and other travel tips, including my favorite under $20 makeup bag that stores a lot and will be bringing along on this trip. I’ve also shared some of my favorite go-to vacation beauty products that may be worth checking out as well, in case you’re planning any trips. Let’s get into these five items…
Gucci Éclat Soleil Luminous Bronzer
I was heavily influenced by several people I follow to try out this splurge of a bronzer. I was extremely skeptical and even nervous to try it out because is so pigmented. It is the most beautiful bronzer I have ever used, a little goes a very long way and adds the most natural touch of warmth to your face. I use shade 03, highly recommend it.
bareMinerals
Gen Nude Blonzer Blush + Bronzer
I discovered this “blonzer” last summer, I definitely think it is more blush than bronzer but it gives a nice touch of pink to my face, it’s the first blush I have ever finished complelely and immediately repurchased. I use shade “kiss of rose.”
Urban Decay
Mini Naked3 Eyeshadow Palette
I bought this eyeshadow palette thinking it may be a good option to travel with and I’ve been using it nonstop since I got it. It’s got the most perfect shades so I can go from day to night very quickly!
Supergoop!
Glowscreen Sunscreen SPF 40
I’ve been a Supergoop fan for years, their Glowscreen is my favorite SPF to wear with or without makeup. They recently launched a new shade “Golden Hour” that has a bit more of a bronzey shade. From my understanding, it was formulated to work well on darker skin tones but I have actually been liking the tint it gives to my face. Either way, you can’t go wrong. I LOVE this stuff!

Maracuja Juicy Lip Balm
I’m not a huge lip balm/gloss/lipstick person but I saw this caught my attention because it gives a TON of hydration and the prettiest touch of color. I started with shade “hibiscus” and re-purchased another in shade “strawberry.” I like to keep one in my purse for touch-ups.
I could go on and on about my favorite beauty finds, but I wanted to limit myself to my top five summer favorites! Be sure to check out my recent makeup tutorial on the blog if you’re looking for more tips for application.
Have you tried any of these items? I’d love to hear. What are your favorite/must-have beauty items lately? Thank you so much for reading! xx CMK
