These are the products I’m enjoying this summer. First off is Naked Sundays CabanaGlow SPF 50 Mineral Glow Serum Drops in Bronze. This product does everything! I can wear it as foundation to be a bronzed goddess. It easily glides all over with it’s serum texture. It’s mineral with major protection. You will get compliments!

I’m setting my makeup with Kopari’s Sunglaze Sheer Setting Mist. This sets your makeup while giving you an illuminating glow. The mist is very fine and weightless. 

When I want face sunscreen without a bronzing affect I have been using Shisiedo’s Urban Environment Mineral Clear Sunscreen with SPF 50. It’s lightweight with hardly any whitecast. It layers great under makeup and is loaded with good for you skin ingredients.

Since I like to take the scent of the beach with me I’ve been covering myself in Vacation’s new Body Mist in their signature award winning fragrance. It’s a coconut, banana, paradise.

Lastly I’m chilling poolside or on the beach with Daizy’s Social Soda. These THC drinks work. Powered by delta 9 and have you feeling just fine….



their innovative, effective products. They came out with a great way to have everything you need in a convenient pouch. It’s their Sun Belt Sampler. This bag has four minis of vacations top selling suncare products. It all comes in a cute nostalgic fanny pack. You can take this with you to the pool, beach or on a vacation and be set with everything you need. Sun block oil, sunscreen, face sunscreen, and after sun gel. I also love their Chardonnay Lip Oil with SPF 30. The oil is so soft and luxurious. It is almost weightless yet gives a great gloss and shine to the lips. They feel hydrated and plumped. It has a caramel/vanilla smell and a bit of a sweet taste. It somehow provides spf 30 protection on top of all of that. I like that the applicator is very fat. It allows for the perfect amount to quickly coat your lips. I love how it looks on my lips when I wear it alone, but it also makes a great topper to add shine to lipstick.

I love SKIN1004’s Hyalu-Cica Water-Fit Sun Serum SPF50+ PA++++. I live in Miami, so of course I wear sunscreen every single day. This one really impressed me for many reasons. There is absolutely no white cast. It almost goes on more like skincare than sunblock. It gave my skin a matte look, which is wonderful because I have somewhat oily skin. It sits nicely under makeup, with no pilling. The cream is hydrating as appose to many sunscreens that make skin dry. It is lightweight and breathable. I I love the use of Centella Asiatica, which is there to moisturize and combat redness.

I love everything I have tried from Vacation Inc. Their new Vacation Inc Super Spritz SPF 50 Face Mist did not let me down. I love this product and plan to buy more when I run out. It is lightweight, leaves no residue, and has a barely there feel on the skin. The scent is very subtle,(I wish it was stronger because I love their signature scent) but I understand why they went light with a face product. I appreciate that the spf is at level 50, for me I will use nothing less when it comes to my face. I use this to layer over face sunscreen, and touch up throughout the day, or post ocean swim. It works great over my makeup since the mist is fine and gentle. It does not cause the makeup to move or run. I love that it’s packed with skincare ingredients. The bottle is lightweight so great to keep in your purse.

I use sunscreen 365 days a year, and you should too. I found a great one for your face. It’s Kinship’s Self Reflect Probiotic Moisturizing Sunscreen with Zinc Oxide SPF 32. It feels great on my skin and works well under makeup. It also has Turmeric in it so soothe and protect skin. 

My hair is really long, and I’m always looking for products to give it volume at the root. I have found that Drybar’s Southern Belle Volume Boosting Root Lifter really helps. You add a bit to your roots and get major volume.

I found an inexpensive night cream I love. I use it over a retinol serum. It’s Versed Skincare’s Recovery Mode Advanced Night Cream. It’s a pretty purple cream designed to fight aging and dryness. It uses fermented purple tea, green coffee, and microalgae. I love how it sits on my skin. It’s not too heavy but highly protective.

To say I’m Obsessed with Vacation Sunscreen is an understatement. Their latest invention, Classic Whip SPF 30 Sunscreen Mousse is my favorite of the line. It is also my favorite body sunscreen I’ve ever tried. It is SPF 30 Broad Spectrum, water resistant up to 80 minutes, and fun. I have turned so many people on to this line and this particular product. Both Men and Women have commented on how amazing the smell is. I even have two friends that went and bought the Vacation Perfume after using this. It is unbelievably lightweight, and quickly melts into skin. I think all sunscreen should now come in a whip can. On top of SPF there is also Coconut Oil, Aloe Vera, Banana Extract, Shea Oil, and Vitamin E. Remember a little goes a long way. Its so fun to use, it’s easy to over spray. I’m praying to the Vacation Gods that they come out with an SPF 50 in this.

I love Antedotum’s Essential Daily Sunscreen. This hydrating facial sunscreen surpassed all expectations. It has broad spectrum SPF 30 UVA UVB and HEV protection. It is loaded with antioxidants to aid in skin’s look and feel. It goes perfect under makeup. It has a light color to it that blended perfectly with my skin. It is also fragrance free and reef safe. The hero ingredient they use is Aspen Bark Complex, which conditions and protects. The packaging is gorgeous enough to leave out on your vanity. As a Beauty Editor I am constantly sent free product. I have plenty of sunscreens in my beauty closet, however when this runs out I will definitely be repurchasing it. It is incredibly lightweight, and doesn’t feel like it clogs pores.

skin safe with Versed Guards Up Daily Mineral Sunscreen with Broad Spectrum SPF 35 protection. They really took care of every sunblock problem with this product. It is lightweight and absorbs fast. There is no white-cast at all. It has a peach tint to it, which almost gives a filtered look to the skin. The texture is silky and works great under makeup. I often forget I have it on because it is so comfortable. This sunscreen has UVA,UVB and blue light protection. It is recommended for all skin types including those that are acne prone. It has antioxidants, sea fennel and mooring seed extract. I feel the brand really used their skincare knowledge to give customers exactly what they want in a face sunscreen.

There is nothing not to love about Vacation sunscreen. It smells amazing. I would call it “musky tropical”. The only thing this product doesn’t have for me is the degree of protection I prefer. I like 50 and higher. That being said, the 30 did a great job protecting my skin.  It is broad spectrum which is a must. Never use a sunscreen that is not! I like that it is non aerosol, yet has a continuous spray. The spray works at all angels so no problem doing your back and legs etc. The feel is lightweight, with no stickyness or white cast. It is completely transparent and layers well. I like that it uses coconut oil, aloe, vitamin e, shea oil, and Banana extract. It’s a vegan brand you can feel good about using. Check out their instagram and website, it’s really cute. 

Skinbetter’s AlphaRet Clearing Serum is a retinoid based serum that doesn’t mess around. It is designed for oilier, blemish prone skin. AlphaRet is a patented technology that combines retinoid and an AHA. It will improve the overall clarity, tone and texture. It’s made with salicylic acid, BHA’s, and hydrating & soothing ingrediants. 

Tatcha’s The Essence Skincare Boosting Treatment wil soften and plump your skin. It uses a trio of fermented Japanese superfoods. I love every product from this line, and this product does not disappoint. It is designed to boost the effects of your skincare while resurfacing and hydrating the skin. 


Australian Gold’s Plant Based Lotion & Sunscreen with SPF 50 is my favorite new sunblock. It smells amazing. It is part of their new Plant Based line, and formulated with Aloe Vera and Coconut Oil. 


Givenchy’s Le Rouge Universal Hydrating Lip Balm is my go to balm for under my lipstick or gloss. It’s a clear moisturizing balm that is designed to hydrate up to 24hrs. It has hyaluronic acid and jojoba seed extract to soothe and nourish lips all day.
