5 Clothing Must Haves for the Beach

First would definitively be a cute bathing suit. I am not a fan of bikinis, so I'd bring a tankini. This one is a cute option:

(Both of these are from Kohls)

Second, you'll want some really cute, comfy, and lightweight clothes. Here are a few pieces:

$25 from Aerie 

$18 from Hollister

$20 from AE

Third of all, you'll want a cute bathing suit cover up if you want something to put on top of your bathing suit for walking back to your hotel. Here is a cute one:

$18 from Target

Forth, some cute flip-flops are a must have. I promise you will wear these every day, wheathers its on the beach or shopping on the boardwalk. Here is a cute pair:

$9.30 from Hollister

Last but not least, you need a cute pair of shades to keep the sun out of your eyes! This is seriously the cutest pair ever: 

$13 from Target

I will be at the beach from August 5-9 so i won't be posting anything for that week. But I'll make up for it somehow! :)

11 things to pack on your beach vacation!

1. A Cute Makeup Bag

This one from Target is super super cute and it should hold all of your makeup that you bring along! and you can also put in your facewash and brushes! 

$20 (Sonia Kashuk) Target

2. Lip/Cheek Stain

For this I chose Posietint by Benefit. It is a really really pretty pink color and it is very long wearing and it will stay on all day!

$29, Sephora

3. BB Cream

A BB Cream is pretty much a tinted moisturizer but has more stuff inside of it. My favorite is the Maybelline Dream BB Cream. I own this and it does a great job at evening out my skin tone and lightly covering freckles and pimples. It is very lightweight, and perfect for the summer! 

$6-9, Ulta (price varies by what store you get it at)

4. Waterproof Cream Eyeshadow

I chose the Maybelline Color Tattoo for this because it is pretty much wateproof, and if you are going to be in the ocean and the pool a lot and you want to have a little bit of color on your eyelids i would totally recommend this to you. If you like bright colors, go for one of the rainbow colors they have. If you like to keep it natural, like me, go with the browns and light colors. 

$6, Target

5. Waterproof Mascara 

For this i chose the Covergirl Lashblast Mascara in Waterproof Very Black because this is definetly the most waterproof mascara ever. It will not budge when you are in the water. It is a great price too.

$7, Walmart

6. Deep Conditioner

If you put this in your hair before and after you go to the pool/beach, it will keep your hair from getting damaged and frizzy. Instead, it will keep it healthy and smooth. I would recommend the Aussie 3 Minute Miracle Deeeep Conditioner to do the trick. 

$4, Target

7. Face Wash

I love the Clean&Clear Morning Burst Fruit Infutions Face Wash. The one I have smells like oranges and all of the scents have strawberry seeds in them. They are very good at waking up and refreshing your face. 

$6, Walmart

8. Lip Balm

A lip balm is essential for everywhere you go. I would recommend an eos lip balm. They are super super moisturizing and they heal chapped lips. I would also recommend an eos smooth stick because they are much more easy to fit in makeup bags (instead of an easter egg shape, they are the shape of a regular chapstick) 

(I think they are around $2-3) from eos.com 

9. Sunscreen

Just essential. Get a higher SPF if you wanna stay pale. Get a lower SPF if you want to get tan. 

$8, Walmart

10. Shaving Cream

Be sure to shave every other day to make sure that you arn't prickly... ew. ;) I like the eos shaving cream because it comes in a few different scents, and also unscented for sensitive skin. 

$3.49, eos.com

11. A Shaver

This is obviously something you are going to need... unless you want to be hairy for the beach ;P

$6, Target

I hope you found this helpful!

My everyday summer makeup!

First thing I use is my Clean and Clear dual action moisturizer. You can get it at any drugstore or at places like Walmart and Target. Next I'd use my blush. I use the Maybelline Fit Me blush in medium pink. I just put this on the apples of my cheeks then blend it up to my temples. Next, I use my NYX Jumbo Eye Pencil in Yogart and put this all over my eyelid for a bit of shimmer. Next I'll either use my Maybelline Mega Plush waterproof mascara or my Maybelline Illegal Length Mascara. For lips I'll use my EOS Lip Balm in Lemon Drop SPF 20 then put on my Revlon Lip Butter in Sweet Tart. And that's pretty much all I do in the summer. :)
