Summer Beauty Products to Use All Year Round

It’s August and the summer’s almost over! We’ll be mourning the loss of warm summer nights and days at the beach, but we aren’t ready to give up all of our summer time habits just yet. The beauty products below are so amazing we’ve decided to add them into our yearly rotation!

1. Bobbi Brown’s “Beach” Fragrance

This scent is literally summer time in a bottle (as you can clearly tell from its name). “Beach” has notes of sea spray and triggers instant nostalgia of days on the shore or at summer camp. One spritz of this and you’ll smell like summer all year round.

2. Benefit Brow Zings

Summer time heat requires bullet (sweat) proof brows! Brow zings is my number one choice for filling in brows because not only is the staying power out of this world (pools & showers won’t budge these brows – use makeup remover!) but also because it lasts forever. I’ve owned my Brow Zings for a year now and haven’t even come close to hitting pan. Brow Zings is officially a year round staple.

I don’t care if it’s July or December – I want perfect mermaid hair. Bumble and bumble is known as the beach hair expert, their Surf Spray has been a cult favorite for years. I love spritzing it through my hair after I’ve used a curling iron or straightener for an instant sun kissed and wind-blown look. While I’ve never personally tried Bumble and bumble’s Don’t Blow it – this is high on my must try list! Anything that advertises a sexy #iwokeuplikethis look via air drying is worth a shot.

4. MAC Fix+

Setting sprays are a must during the summer as they provide extra staying power! MAC’s Fix+ should be immediately added into your yearly beauty rotation because not only is it great at getting your makeup to stay put, but it’s also a quick way to refresh your makeup throughout the day. For those of us that have zero time for touch ups, a few spritzes of Fix+ can help make the skin look instantly refreshed.

5. bareMinerals California Bronze Palette

Preserve your tan as we move into fall with bareMinerals’ California Bronze Trio! This nifty little palette comes with three shades: a light bronzer, a medium/dark bronzer, and a subtle highlighter. This kit isn’t for hard core contouring, but is perfect for a natural sun kissed summer glow.

We’ve had the best summer with you! What are your must have summer beauty products and will you continue to use them now that summer’s over? Let us know below!
