7 Beauty Products Perfect for Summer

Fashionistas,

When it comes to beauty products, I’m certainly no expert. Sure, I have a personal routine that I follow religiously with products that help me primp and care for my skin, hair, and everything else, but I don’t feel the need to try every new product that pops up on the market. With so many options, it is extremely difficult figuring out the ones that you must buy to keep your look fresh and youthful. But that’s why I am here – to take the guesswork out of finding the best beauty products. I’ll be sharing the game-changing products that have made me fall completely in love time and time again.

Read on to get the beauty products that you need to have in your beauty stash ASAP:

MAC Mineral Charged Water Moisture Gel

MAC-Mineral-Charged-Water-Moisture-Gel-Beauty-Product-OnGiselleAve

Let me just say that Florida heat plus dry skin is not a match made in heaven, okay? Being born and raised in the sunshine state, I’ve had to be pretty inventive when it comes to making sure my skin is well-nourished. When I found MAC’s Mineral Charged Water Moisture Gel, my life was changed. Easy to incorporate into your everyday routine, this popular moisturizer leaves your skin feeling smooth and gentle, without being too thick. If you haven’t used this gel yet, you’re sadly missing out.  Get yours here.

Jergens Natural Glow Revitalizing Lotion

Jergens-Natural-Glow-Lotion-Beauty-Product-OnGiselleAve

I love anything that makes me look like I’m magazine cover ready, so when I first started using Jergens Natural Glow, I was more than impressed. This hydrating lotion smoothens your skin and gives you a more even tone (which is perfect for any dark marks on your body – childhood scars say goodbye!) The best part is that it doesn’t leave any stickiness behind, which is top notch in my book. Buy a bottle here.

Too Faced Better Than Sex Mascara

Too-Faced-Better-Than-Sex-Mascara-Beauty-Product-OnGiselleAve

I have naturally long eyelashes, so it has always been difficult for me to find a mascara that doesn’t make my eyelashes look clumpy. When I saw the brush for the Too Faced Better Than Sex Mascara, I knew I was going to love it. At $23, it is a little bit more than I would normally pay for mascara, but it is so worth it! Not only does it add volume to my already luscious lashes, but it isn’t thick and doesn’t flake throughout the day. Major win! Shop the beauty staple here.

MAC Mineralize Foundation

MAC-Mineralize-Foundation-Beauty-Product-OnGiselleAve

Because what’s a beauty post without a couple of MAC products? When I first started experimenting with makeup, it was very hard for me to find the one foundation that did my skin tone and skin type justice. Liquid foundation made me feel like I was sweating my face off every single minute and some powder foundations settled in my pores and just made me look downright scary. MAC’s Mineralize Foundation holds up well in the heat and covers my dark spots while giving me a more natural look, which I can’t get enough of.  And I love the shimmery finish that makes me look like I’m living my life like it’s golden, honey! You can find yours here.

Yes to Blueberries Makeup Wipes

Yes-to-Blueberries-Facial-Cleansing-Wipes-Beauty-Product-OnGiselleAve

Any beauty-obsessed gal knows that leaving your makeup on overnight is a huge no-no. Not only can you clog your pores and end up with a dreaded pimple, but you can end up aging your skin. There are tons of great options to buy, but my favorite is the Yes to Blueberries facial towelettes. They smell amazing and wash away all dirt and makeup for a super clean feel. And even if you don’t like the scent, they have an entire line to choose from. Check out the great deal here.

Burt’s Bees Pink Grapefruit Lip Balm

Burts-Bees-Pink-Grapefruit-Lip-Balm-Beauty-Product-OnGiselleAve

I love any lip balm that stays on all day and leaves my lips feeling soft and perky. Burt’s Bees is a great brand known for its moisturizing, long-lasting lip balms. I was a little hesitant to try it out, but this was the one product that was rightfully hyped up. And it tastes delicious – even though I probably shouldn’t be licking on my lip gloss (shh!). Shop here.

Dove Deep Moisture Body Wash

Dove-Deep-Moisture-Nourishing-Body-Wash-Beauty-Product-OnGiselleAve

From the very moment that I started using Dove’s Deep Moisture Body Wash, I swore off of ever using bar soap ever again. The invigorating wash has a rich lather and leaves my skin feeling oh so soft. And it has natural, great-smelling ingredients which work wonders for my skin. You can get a bottle for just $7 here.
