What others are reading
- SPF Always: A lightweight, non-greasy sunscreen doubles as a makeup primer and shields your skin.
- Bronzed and Beautiful: Apply bronzer along the cheeks, temples, and collarbone for a sun-kissed glow—even if you haven’t made it to the beach.
- Dewy Skin: Face mists and hydrating serums are your friends. Keep a travel spray in your beach bag for touch-ups.
- Beach Waves in Minutes: Use a salt spray or create loose braids overnight for effortless, tousled waves.
- Bold Lips: Don’t shy away from neon or coral lip colors—they pop even more once you’re tan.

Remember: Looking great in the sun is all about prep and protection.
