Before we officially close out summer, I wanted to talk about my late summer current beauty and skincare favorites.

Bug Spray: Captain Blankenship Sail Away Bug Spray

I donโ€™t know what it is about this summer, but Iโ€™ve had more mosquito bites than I remember having in many years. So Iโ€™ve had to resort to bug spray. This one happens to be all natural and to smell pretty good as well because itโ€™s comprised of various essential oils to repel bugs. This bug spray is effective with regular application.

Eye Cream: Vow Beauty Happily Ever After Eye Gel

Iโ€™m not super consistent with applying eye cream, but I like this brand that I discovered during the 2018 Project Beauty Expo because itโ€™s a clear gel consistency that can easily be layered over make-up. This product is great for waking up my face before applying moisturizer, sunscreen and other products.

Facial Scrub: Caudalie Deep Cleansing Exfoliator

I donโ€™t use physical exfoliators very often on my face, but this one is gentle enough that i donโ€™t worry that Iโ€™m creating small tears in my skin. This scrub is not too abrasive for use 1-2 times a week.

Hair Cream: Beija Flor Naturals Creme Brulee for Kinks, Curls and Coils

I also discovered this product at the 2018 Project Beauty Expo . This cream is great product to layer on top of leave-in conditioner for twist outs. Itโ€™s moisturizing and absorbs nicely into my hair. I can see this being a staple in the winter time as well when I need to really layer on moisturizing products to keep my hair from drying out.
