beach beauty

For beach days, my beauty regiment is very low key. 
Here are some of my must-haves found at Amazon.com:

FACE

When sitting in the sun, the most important products I use for my face are a lightweight face sunscreen, moisturizing lip balm, and waterproof mascara (guilty!! -- I do wear some makeup to the beach) 

1. Neutrogena Clear Face Sunblock Lotion SPF 30 $8.50

2. L'Oreal Paris Volumnious Waterproof Mascara $7.50

3. Rosebud Salve $7

HAIR

I love the look of windblown hair, and to achieve this I turn to Bumble and Bumble's Surf Spray. I'll spray it before a day at the beach, or when lounging by the pool. I also use a ton of conditioner after jumping in the water -- my favorite is Aussie's 3 Minute Miracle. It gives you beautiful, soft hair. Also, bobby pins are a must have for pinning back annoying strands.

1. Bumble and Bumble Surf Spray $24

2. Bobby Pins $3.50

3. Aussie 3 Minute Miracle Conditioner $3.90

SKIN

I am a huge sunscreen addict when I go to the beach, and reapply constantly. For achieving a healthy golden glow, check out Maui Babe -- a beach girl's best friend -- you'll look as bronzed as the bottle after use. 

1. Maui Babe Browning Lotion $16

2. Burt's Bees After Sun Soother $13

3. Philosophy Here Comes the Sun Sunscreen $19

These polishes have been on rotation for the past few weeks mostly because I am smitten with the sunny floral colors. But they are a surprisingly great basic nail color -- with a twist of course. Yellow substituting cream or browns, lilac for blues.
