Over the summer I’ve discovered a few new products that I’ve really enjoyed. In the spirit of the Friday Five theme – here are the top five beauty products I’ve enjoyed using this summer!
1 // Softsoap Fresh & Glow Hydrating Shower Cream – One squirt into my loofah is plenty for a good lather, and I feel like the formula truly is hydrating! I have dry, itchy skin all year long and this body wash really helped reduce that problem.
2// Rimmel Lasting Finish Foundation – This can be tricky to apply, so I mix a dot of lightweight moisturizer into the foundation before quickly applying it to my face. With the Rimmel Stay Matte powder, it gives great coverage and is so affordable!
3// Dirty Works Coconut Body Butter – I buy this brand at TJ Maxx and love it! This body butter is light enough for summer, but it is still very moisturizing and long lasting.
4// Almay Smart Shade Butter Kiss Lipstick in Nude Light – This is perfect for light makeup days when I need just enough lipstick so my pasty white lips don’t make me look dead. 🙂 I had a $4 coupon from the newspaper that made this lipstick less than $3! (If you like the Revlon Lip Butters and can’t find them anymore, I feel like this is a good dupe)
5// Burts Bees Cleansing Oil with Coconut & Argan Oil – I have a sample size from my Target Beauty Box, but I will repurchase this once my sample is empty. This oil is perfect for removing a full face of heavy makeup – it does an amazing job!
What beauty products have you loved this summer?
Have a wonderful weekend!
Linking up with High Five For Friday, Friday Favorites, and Five on Friday
That Rimmel foundation has been on my buy list for a while and since we have similar coloring 🙂 Glad to know you like it! And cleansing oils have been so hit and miss for me… but love Burt’s Bees in general. Need to give that a try too!!

The foundation is still tricky to apply – if you have dry skin, be sure to use a moisturizer and primer underneath it. I can’t get it to apply smoothly otherwise. 🙂

Going to have to check out the Almay, as that sounds like a great product! I love creamy lip products. One of my favorite lip items is Sonia Kashuk Satin Luxe Lip Color in Roseberry, which is only at Target. The color is a bit berry, a bit nude, and it smells a little like vanilla.
I have been loving Dove’s Deep Moisture (blue cap) body wash. It is super moisturizing, and I love how it lathers enough that you can use it instead of a shave gel.
Chapstick’s lime variety has gotten me through summer, too. I love fruity scents/flavors, and they are so fresh in the warm months!

Almay’s lipsticks are definitely creamy – they will melt if they get too hot! 🙂

I love the Almay lipsticks! They are so moisturizing and don’t dry up on my lips.

Same here. The only issue I have with the buttery formula is that it gets melty in the Southern heat! 🙂

I have the Burt’s Bees cleansing oil and haven’t used it yet but that’s because I had no clue how to! Now I know what it’s good for!

I love it! You don’t use water – just put the oil on your hands and work it into your skin. It seems weird at first, but it’s amazing how well it removes makeup!
