Summer Essentials

Hello loyal readers and first timers!
Can you believe that it's already May? already...summer? okay fine, almost. 
Nevertheless, the temperatures are rapidly rising in California (this week is an exception), so I thought it would be a perfect opportunity to do a summer essentials post!

*All the products will be listed at the end of the post* (:

Starting off with bronzers! Bronzers are such life savers, and they belong in my summer essentials (or all year round) because it creates more dimension to my face. Who doesn't want a nice, contoured face? 

Moving on to highlighters!  
During the summer time, it seems like everybody is constantly trying to control their oil by powdering their face every two hours. Unfortunately, the finish can end up looking too cakey and dull. So for anyone who wants dewy skin without the oiliness, I highly recommend using a highlighter!  

This one is self explanatory, but sunscreen, sunscreen, sunscreen! 
At least SPF 15 with UVA & UVB protection. 
Try a sheer formula if you are not into the greasy feeling of sunscreen! -Does anyone actually like the greasy feeling? 

My last summer essential is eyeshadow, but not just any eyeshadow.. Gold eyeshadow! 
Gold is one of the most wearable, gorgeous colors that can be worn every day or on special occasions. Personally, I like gold better than silver/white eyeshadows because it matches my skin tone better.
But hey, don't let skin tones stop you from wearing your favorite eyeshadow color!
