Neutrogena Clear Face Sunscreen Lotion & ULTRA SHEER Moisturizing Face Serum Sunscreen

These two sunscreens have quickly become my summer go-tos! Depending on my day, I alternate between them. For days when I’m out in the sun longer, I love the Neutrogena Clear Face Sunscreen Lotion. It’s a thicker cream that applies evenly without leaving a white cast or a greasy effect. I tend to use this on more active days in the sun when I’m wearing minimal makeup. However, I have used this under a heavier make-up day without any problems!

For days when I’m dressing up a bit more, I prefer the serum. It’s deeply hydrating and has a thinner consistency while still providing full coverage. I like to use it before my moisturiser, but it works amazingly well even when applied after. It gives me a bit of a glow under my makeup without looking greasy or leaving a white cast.

Both products are excellent at protecting your skin from the sun, and I haven’t experienced any pilling while using the product!. If you’re like me and get nervous about trying new products because of potential breakouts, I can confidently say I did not have this problem with either sunscreen!

Sunly Mineral Lip Balm SPF 15

The Sunly Mineral Lip Balm SPF 15 is perfect for everyday use and keeps my lips protected from the sun and hydrated. I love that it’s enriched with nourishing oils like coconut and argan oil, which keep my lips hydrated. The universal tint harmonises with all lip shades, ensuring a finish free from any white traces. The design of this lip balm is also impressive. It features a biodegradable seal and ink, cardboard packaging, and a push-up tube, making it eco-friendly and gentle on the ocean. This thoughtful design adds to the overall appeal and aligns with my values of sustainability. I highly recommend it for anyone looking for effective and eco-conscious lip balm!

Nair Wax Ready Strips with White Lily Extract

These new Nair Wax Strips have quickly become my go-to for facial hair removal! For days when I need quick and easy hair removal, I love that these wax strips are ready to use right out of the box. The results are great, lasting up to 4 weeks, and I’ve noticed that my hair grows back softer. This makes it ideal for maintaining smooth, hair-free skin over longer periods (especially on vacation!). I also appreciate that these strips are specially formulated for the face. The petite size is perfect for targeting hair on my face and upper lips without any mess. The soothing white lily in the formula rejuvenates and moisturises my skin, leaving it feeling refreshed and smooth after each use.

Batiste 24H Active Dry Shampoo is perfect for active days or when I’m on the go. I love that it absorbs sweat and activates invisible scent capsules as I move, keeping my hair fresh for longer. The advanced formula neutralises odour and prevents sweat buildup, while the delightful scent of green apple, pineapple, pear, and nectarine adds a refreshing touch (very important while out in the sun!). This dry shampoo targets excess oil and grease at the roots, leaving my dark hair looking and feeling clean between washes without leaving a white residue. It’s an excellent after-workout refresher.
