Rounding up a few of my favorite items that I use for the Summer sun! I know it’s *only* May, BUT here in California the weather is nice and I spend a lot more time outside!
Sun Hat – My new favorite sunhat UPF 50+ came from Amazon of all places and it was only $15. It can roll up and is size-adjustable! I wore it in Hawaii and loved it! I also wear this sun visor as well!
Sunglasses – I love wearing sunglasses. Since I live in California, I wear sunglasses every day! Yes, even when it’s raining sometimes because it’s so bright! I rounded up a few of my favorites in the widget below!
Swim Suit – I bought this swim suit (top here, bottom here) and got so many compliments from various people at the pool in Hawaii. It is flattering! They also have a one piece version here too. I’ve also rounded up a few of my favorite swimsuits in the widget below!
Cover-Up– My favorite swim cover up company is Shahida Parides – found them by watching the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills. No, they aren’t cheap, but I have never found a cover up as pretty as these ones! Nordstrom rack occasionally gets them in and I found some on sale at Nordstrom Rack HERE!
Tanning Products – If you want the tanned look, but don’t want to risk skin cancer, I recommend trying a self tan product. St. Tropez Self Tan mousse has tons of loyal followers. I tried St. Tropez’s self tan in 3 min in the shower and liked it for a quick light color application. Kate Somerville’s self-tanner towelettes are easy for on-the-go application. Clarin’s has a loyal following. As does Coola.
Sunscreen – Obviously a must have if you are going to be in the sun! My favorite face sunscreen I wear every day is by La Roche Posay here. As for body sun screen, honestly I just pick a spray sun screen and whatever is on sale is what I buy! I usually buy SPF 50+, but sometimes SPF 30+, again, depending on what’s on sale!
