I’m getting so excited for summer, it’s practically here! Besides the rain today I’d say we’ve had a pretty great run for spring. I feel like I really got a chance to wear my favorite spring outfits and I wasn’t even pretending to be warm, I really was! This spring/summer I’m embracing my pale skin and vow to take extra good care to protect it from the elements. I have already bought 2 bottles of sunblock, next step is to start protecting my face. I do wear an spf 15 moisturizer every day, but in that hot summer weather on that sandy beach you just NEED some extra protection! I’m particularly interested in purchasing a summer hat this year. J.crew and anthropologie have some cute ones– but I’m sure I can swing by the outlet mall and find a practical one for less. We shall see in time what I end up with…
Here is what I am using for skin protection:
I love Neutrogena products and this is one that I have been a fan of for a long time. It goes on smooth and doesn’t leave a greasy feeling, plus you know you’re face is getting protection all day.
This stuff is magic. It goes on so light you don’t even know it’s on! Which means it’s the stuff for me because I HATE that icky sunblock feeling. SO sticky!
And as far as my head goes, I’ve been looking into a few options:
Summer Straw Hat by j.crew
Whirling Plaid Sunhat from Anthropologie
Eric Javits Packable Floppy Hat from Saks
(LOVE the orange detail!)
Ribbon-Wrapped Hat from Anthropologie
Straw Trilby Hat by j.crew
(The last two are more for fashion’s sake I’ll admit– but I do love them.)
Hope I can still get my summer freckles!!!!!
