My summer essentials are fairly simple — light makeup, good lipstick, and an easy skincare routine. While this may sound straightforward, my desire to try new products keeps me busy at my local Ulta.
This summer, the products on my must-try list include an organic sunscreen (most leave my skin greasy, or worse, ruin the finish on my manicure — if you have any brands that you love, please let me know in the comments), a light foundation that gives me a dewy glow (here is a review of the last foundation I tried), and a toner to get my skin clean and clear before bed. Of course, a good illuminator and a nice lip stain, like the ones from Stila, are always summer staples.
I’d love to hear if you have any summer beauty staples that you can’t live without!
I use that concealer, too, it’s the best! I use Neutrogena sunscreen which I don’t think is too greasy. I have sensitive skin, so there are few sunscreens that work and luckily that’s one! Might give the organic one a try though!

I’ve been using Neutrogena’s sunscreens for a while, too, Jamie! They’re pretty good, but I’d like to find a organic one to use this summer.
Such a great round up of products. I’ll need to try some of these this summer.

Thanks, Samantha!
I LOVE that Fekkai beach waves spray! I just started using it! It smells incredible!
Taffeta & Tulips
I can’t wait to try it, Kate! It sounds like a great product.
My dream staples are basically identical to yours! I am also on the hunt for the perfect organic sunscreen but have had zero luck thus far, so please keep me posted on your hunt!
I haven’t had much luck either, Kasie! But I’m determined to find a good organic sunscreen this summer. I’ll keep you posted!
Thanks for sharing your summer go-to’s! I am a big fan of Coola’s makeup setting spray which has an SPF of 15. I always use this in the summer for extra protection.

Thanks for the recommendation, Kathrine! I’m going to give it a try.
