FACE MISTS THAT ARE TOTALLY WORTH YOUR MONEY

It took me a minute to come around to face mists, which—let's be honest—may appear to be nothing much more than atomized H20 to many of you. In short, a total waste of time and money. But hear me out: the ones you’ll see here are brimming with skin-loving ingredients, calming Rosewater, and even water from the French Alps. Just ONE spritz on my just cleansed and bare face was enough to change my life (and skin) forever. How you ask? Well...it instantly makes me feel revived, comes to my rescue at work when all I want to do is a nap after lunch and cools, soothes and hydrates my complexion when I need a midday pick-me-up. Ahead, a bunch of facial mists that you are bound to love: 1. AVENE THERMAL SPRING WATER Think of it as water, but with supernatural powers. It’s packed with skin-softening silicates and has a balanced dose of Calcium and Magnesium that work together to improve skin's texture and strengthen its barrier. Plus, its pH level of 7.5, ma...

RESTING BEACH FACE: YOUR ESSENTIALS FOR SUN, SAND & SURF

-

 


It’s that time of year again: the time to flee the scorching city streets in pursuit of some Vitamin Sea. Summer is here and the beach beckons, along with the oh-so-familiar urge to give it all up and become a full-time beach bum.

And while swimming, sunbathing and sipping Pina Coladas all rank high on the agenda, so does achieving your potential as the sun goddess you were born to be. While doing all of this, you would want to flood your social media with your beach face. The perfect beach makeup products will help you keep your selfie game on point.

Here’s a compiled list of best beach beauty products for you to add to your tote this summer.

 
Benefit Cosmetics Hoola Matte Bronzer Mini

 


A tan is great, but a glowy tan is Glamazon. Whether or not you plan to spend your summer sunning yourself by the sea, bronzer is that bae that will keep you looking like the goddess you are, no matter where you are. Our current favorite is Benefit Cosmetic’s Hoola Matte Bronzer, an award-winning bestseller for good reason. Dust it lightly across your forehead, cheeks and chin for an effortless, supermodel chisel that’s perfect for the summer.

 

Kiehl's Butterstick Lip Treatment SPF 25 - Simply Rose

 


Between spritzes and sunscreen-smearing, don’t forget that your pout also needs some tender love and care. Kiehl’s Butterstick Lip Treatment is our hot favorite this season, because it comes packed with SPF 25 (a lot more than most balms offer!) and a buttery, natural tint to imbue color, moisture and protection in one fell swoop. Antioxidant Lemon Butter and Coconut Oil deeply penetrate, leaving a soft, cushiony pout that stays quenched for up to 12 hours.

 

Avene Thermal Spring Water

 


Looking for the one, true face mist that will never let you down? Well, the jury’s out and the verdict is unanimous: Avene’s Thermal Spring Water is all you need. The miracle mist that sells every two seconds across the globe, has earned its cult status thanks to a foolproof formula of mineral-rich water, including Aqua Dolomiae, that works to soothe the most sensitive of skin types. A quick spritz is all it takes to rejuvenate and refresh sun-parched skin, and it doesn’t even leave a sticky residue – in our opinion, a must-have for beachside chilling.

 

Nykaa SKINgenius BB Cream SPF30

 


While you’re peeling back the layers for summer, make sure to do the same with your makeup, too – the hotter it gets, the more breathing space you need to give your skin. If you feel like you can’t go without a little bit of base at the beach, swap heavier options with something lightweight, like Nykaa’s SKINgenius BB Cream. Infused with SPF30, Aloe Vera, Green Tea and Cucumber, it floods your face with antioxidants while hiding the little blemishes you don’t want to show off with your bikini.

 

Bioderma Photoderm Max Aquafluide SPF 50+ Doree (Golden Shade)

 


We don’t need to tell you that no list of beach essentials is complete without sunscreen, and the one we’re putting on this one is Bioderma’s Photoderm Max Aquafluide SPF 50+ in Doree. This water-resistant beauty blocks excess sebum and the sun’s harmful rays, leaving you with a dry-touch finish that sits as easy on the skin as you will on your beach lounger. A great formula for layering makeup over, what sets this one apart from the rest is a gorgeous, sun-kissed tint that’ll have you look the part of a beach bum even before the tan sets in.

 

Innisfree No Sebum Mineral Powder

 


There’s a fine line between a rosy glow and sweaty red, and Innisfree’s No Sebum Mineral Powder will ensure you stay in the safe, loving aura of the former. Enriched with Jeju minerals and refreshing mint (thanks, K-beauty), all you need to do is pat your face with this between naps to absorb excess sebum and keep your skin looking peachy-fresh and radiant. Moreover, since it works to mattify your skin without making your makeup patchy, it’s a great alternative to layers of pressed powder that will clog your skin. This is a perfect beauty product for the beach

 

Toni&Guy Casual: Sea Salt Texturising Spray

 


Does your post-dip hair look more ratty than Ratajkowski? Set it right with Toni&Guy’s Casual Sea Salt Texturising Spray – a lightweight formula that will give you lived-in, surfer girl tousles that belie your 9-to-5 desk job. Not sure how to use it? It’s super simple – just towel-dry your hair and spray it evenly from root to tip, working your fingers through it for texture and volume. You can either tie it up for a youthful, textured ponytail or leave it loose – both great day or night looks for your next island destination.
