Beach, please!

Hey guys,

so the weather is getting warmer and the clothes are getting shorter. That can only mean one thing: SUMMER is coming. And with the summer we have the lovely beach days where we can finally jump in those adorable bathing suits and then right into the water right? Well, almost. Besides looking all fab with the summer tan and the colourful bikinis, we need to take care of our skin too.
I've heard alot of friends saying that they don't like wearing make-up to the beach because it gets all messed up in the heat and comes off after taking a dip in the water. Guess what, there is a way to wear make-up to the beach and still look fabulous. 

Here are some tips on what kind of make-up to wear when going to the beach.




1. BB-Cream
First of all you want to make sure that your skin is protected from the sun. You can either wear sunscreen underneath your make-up or wear a BB-cream instead. Most of the BB-creams have sunblock included already which is awesome. Here I have the "Garnier Miracle Skin Perfector, daily al-in-one BB-cream in medium" with SPF 20. I really like this BB-cream because it's super light on the skin and has a light to medium coverage. (Price: 8,25€)

2. Cream Eyeshadow
If you want to have some eyeshadow on your eyes then I recommend using a cream consistency. Cream eyeshadows are great if you want to go into the water because they won't come off so easily. I really recommend the "Color Tattoo's" by Maybelline. Here I have the colour 65-Pink Gold which, like the name already says, a beatiful pink with golden shimmer. (Price: 7,95€)

3. Waterproof Mascara
You can't go into the water without some waterproof mascara unless you want to look like panda. The "Rocket Volum' Express Waterproof Mascara" by Maybelline is great for the underwater fun. (Price: 9,95€)

4. Creme Blush
Same like the eyes you can't go wrong with creme. A creme blush is perfect for keeping your cheeks nice and rosy all day. Here I have the MAC cremeblend blush in "Something Special". It's a beautiful pinky coral tone which is also nice to wear on daily basis. (Pricce: 24,00€)

5. Lip balm
Last but not the least: the lips. Lip balms are great for the beach, specially when they are tinted and have SPF in it. You can definately not neglect your lips. Show them some love and pamper them too. I totally am in love with the Pout Polish by Sleek. It's a tinted lip conditioner, has SPF 15 and smells absolutely amazing. The colour I have is "Pink Cadillac". It's a bright hot pink colour and perfect for summer. (Price: 5,49€)

So these were my TOP 5 make-up products for the beach. I hope you enjoyed reading.

Until next time
