The Top 5 Summer Beauty Essential Must Haves

Finally it feels like summer has arrived which means so has a new routine for me — from my accessory options to the products that enhance my summer look. Here are my top 5 summer essentials:

➀ Jewelry | The Gold Inlet Cuff bracelet from Dune Jewelry:

Jewelry in the summer time is way different than any other season, I like to stack up and keep them petite & thanks to summer’s warm weather, I get to show off my bracelet selections again. The one I keep on me at all times is the Gold Inlet Cuff bracelet from Dune Jewelry. The collections are all customisable, meaning Dune Jewelry likes to connect you to your most favorite trip or memory!

Live for the moment, then take it with you!

This is perfect for a wanderluster like me — I chose the sand from the island of Curaçao, in the Caribbean, where Jeff and I took a trip earlier this year. One of the best places I’ve ever been to so of course I wanted to carry that memory with me all summer long — wherever I go! I like the gold version for the summer with the lighter sand color and I wear it bare or stack it with some of my other favorites.

 

➁ Hair Products | A Luxurious Necessity to Nourish & Repair

Only the best for my hair — My hair makes a statement and in order for me to make sure it stays healthy I stay away from too many chemicals. So my two go-tos this summer are J.F Lazartigue and Terax Original Crema Conditioner  — Because they restore my hair leaving it healthy, shiny, soft, and as perfect as it can be even when it air dries.

♡ J.F Lazartigue — Jean-Francois Lazartigue is one of the most renowned hair care specialists in France who also happens to cater to some of your favorite celebrities — Jada Pinkett Smith, Charlize Theron, etc. —  I love their everyday products & most of all their Moisturizing Mask — a blue mask which restores any damage my hair has experienced without weighing it down.

Their entire line is customized and they have specialists always available to assist. From thinner hair, like my good friend Kate Stoltz, to thick hair like mine — we’re big fans!

♡ Terax Hair Care — this Italian gem is everything you want in a conditioner! It left my hair feeling soft, shiny, and in great condition just letting it air dry. All that frizz I normally hate has been relaxed with their newest version of the Crema Conditioner + Keratin from Terax — which provides targeted deposits of keratin to only the most damaged areas of the hair fiber, leaving hair soft, shiny and easy to style.

The Terax products are made to focus on building healthy hair from the inside out through high quality and innovative hair care formulation!

➂ Nail Polish | Natural & Healing

Let’s stay natural! This summer, thanks to Dr. Afsaneh Latifi from MedSpa East, I’ve been introduced to the healthier alternative to the traditional nail polish ↣ Dr. Remedy’s Enriched Nail Care — a polish collection made to enhance and nourish your nails. This summer my go-to is their ‘Relaxing Rose’ nail polish and their ‘Two In One’ clear top coat and protector– the rose color is soft yet noticeable and goes great with any pink shade I’ve been rocking! You can get yours here! I love colors and their wide range from playful to sophisticated make this one of my favorite brands — the best alternative to the traditional nail polish, this is a blend of healthy ingredients all hand picked by Dr. Cirlincione and Dr. Spielfogel and includes: wheat protein, tea tree oil, garlic bulb extract and lavender.

Their website has a cool icon where you can match your skin tone to any of their 30 colors in the collection — Try yours here!

If you’re anything like me and your nails are extra weak — try Probelle Touch ‘N Grow nail hardeners to cure, repair, and restore damaged nails, I’ve been using this duo religiously. I leave one at home and the other at work!

Their website also shares why: “With special elements extracted from garlic, not only does this amazing formula harden and grows the nail, it also protects against fungus.  Along with Garlic, Lime is a key additive to maintain hardness and growth while restoring the whiteness of the nail.”

➃ Lips & More | The Lavender Peppermint Balm by Pretty Packages

This 100% all natural gem is a cure for many things and the size of a chapstick! Beside it being a great moisturizer for your lips it also relieves headaches — just rub at temples and base of neck. Also, rub at pulse points for a soothing & relaxing smell as well as instant calm.

➄ Skin | The all purpose Everything Balm by Trilogy

I like to keep it as natural as possible and that’s why my go to this summer is Trilogy! My favorite because of the benefits, it’s versatile usage, and the results — my fave is their Everything Balm — great for any moisturizing or even styling need. Besides using it on my skin, I also have used it in emergency styling situations! This all natural product is a must have and great for traveling!

I was introduced to them earlier this year, and naturally very skeptic, but each product I’ve used I’ve come to trust and love this brand even more!

 

I love these products because, during the summer especially, I like to keep it as simple yet natural as possible and these products help me do just that while looking right! I’m such a accessory type of girl I had to make it my #1!
