Put Your Make-Up On!

I figured it's best to do this summer type post before summer is over.  Better late than never, right?  These are a few of my essential items that I would take to the beach.


What I have in the background is a beach blanket from Victoria Secret which will be useful for when you want to lay in the sand, it will also double up as a carrier for everything when you're ready to head home!  I love multi-use items.  Along with a beach blanket you will more than likely need a towel.

It's great to have some fun and entertainment while you're out with friends which is why I have included a little portable speaker so your music can project around surrounding areas.  Be sure to be thoughtful of other parties around you as well though!
I have included sunglasses as well to protect your eyes from the sun's UV rays.
*One other thing that would have been in this picture was going to be lip chap.  This is just as important as water and sunglasses to keep your lips hydrated!

The next 2 items aren't necessarily essentials but extras. These are both luminizing body butters by Pacifica. This brand is known for being vegan and 100% cruelty free.
These body butters serve the purpose of smelling absolutely wonderful all over your skin as well as leaving shimmery pearl all over your body.  This will then reflect from the sun and make you look beautiful!

This one is the Shimmer and Glow.  As you can tell it is extremely subtle on the skin but is there.  A little will go a very long way and I will recommend washing your hands after application as your hands will be transformed.

The Sun-kissed glow is actually way more golden than this picture is suggesting.  From my experience, this doesn't necessarily make your skin look more 'sun kissed' rather than have golden glitters all over.

The both of these are fairly noticeable in the sun but I would have to say that the gold tone is the most noticeable.  If I were to choose a favorite between the two it would definitely be the silver one because it's subtle and angelic all at the same time.

There you have it, all of the accessories that I would take to the beach!  If there's anything that I missed or think would also be quite essential feel free to let me know!
