7 Beauty Buys I’ve Been Obsessed with All Summer

Honestly I can’t believe I’m just now sharing this post because whether or not we want to admit it, summer is winding down, but here we go! 🙂 Summer beauty products are my favorite because they usually involve some sort of beachy, coconut vibe, and, this season, what I’ve been using daily is no different:

  • Bath & Body Works At the Beach Body Lotion and Fine Fragrance Mist: I tried to be SO GOOD when I went to Bath & Body earlier this summer! Until I smelled their At the Beach collection. You guysss, it’s seriously the beach bottled up: Think sunscreen, sand, wind, etc.! I bought the lotion, mist, and the body wash and ran! I use this all daily and LOVE IT.
  • Vita Coco Coconut Oil: I jumped on the coconut oil train this summer, using it primarily as a lotion. Nothing beats applying this after a shower/before bed. It’s so hydrating – it’s really insane! Plus, I love the smell.
  • Kiehl’s Cactus Flower & Tibetan Ginseng Mist: This facial mist makes me feel like I just visited a spa or something after I spray it! It smells amazing and is so cool and hydrating for your skin. I like to put this on after I’ve applied my makeup to give it a more summery, dewy look or before for a spritz of hydration. I’ve also definitely had a few makeup-free days lately and it just feels so good to spray this on throughout the day for some extra skin TLC.
  • Marvis Toothpaste: I got Nic this trial set for Father’s Day and have been trying to sneak to use it ever since 🙂 There are so many flavors, they all taste fabulous and leave your breath really fresh, plus they are so pretty, right? A great gift set too.
  • Colorescience Brush-On Sunscreen SPF 50: I was sent a sample of this a few weeks ago and have been consistently applying this over my makeup to help protect my face from the sun. I like that it’s a powder-form, brushes on super easily, and that you can’t tell at all that you just applied it.
  • OUAI Wave Spray: I received a trial of this through my Birchbox subscription and have been obsessed with it! Just a few sprays of this lovely fragrant mist and my hair has quite a bit more texture! Evidently I’m not the only one that loves this stuff – the reviews are so good on it too!

    We vacationed in Key West this year and I purchased some Key West Aloe coconut products that are awesome, but almost used up! I didn’t even think to go to Bath and Body Works, so I might try the products you mentioned before summer is over. Nothing smells like summer to me more than coconut! Love to eat it, too.

    I received the Marvis toothpaste in a Birchbox a few years ago and loved it! However, I’ve not seen it in a store so I haven’t bought it since. I need to look for it again!

XOXO 💋 // What's a new year's resolution you're XOXO 💋 // What's a new year's resolution you're excited about this year? The start of the year is a great time to make resolutions, but one that's often overlooked is resolving to start saving for your child's higher education. 💕 Ohio's 529 plans can be used at any higher education institution - from two-year to four-year, from trade to vocational schools. And contributions can start as low as $25! 👏🏻 So even if you don't have a clue what your kiddo wants to do when they graduate high school, saving now for their future will help get them here. Want to learn more? Click the link in my bio for more information ✨ Who here has started saving for their child’s education?
