This mint-infused exfoliating soap refreshes, energizes and lightly sloughs drab skin with a super-infusion of peppermint oil and crushed walnut shells for a wake-you-up cleansing experience. It is PERFECTION after a long day out in the sun; so cool and refreshing and lathers up like a dream!

Soap & Glory Smoothie Star Breakfast Scrub

 Soap & Glory Smoothie Star Breakfast Scrub ($25, Sephora.com)

An award-winning, skin-smoothing oat, shea butter, and sugar body smoother with a great maple scent. This scrub {which I originally featured here} is a smoothing blend of cupuacu bio scrubs, bananas, almond, and honey extracts to gently polish, smooth, and moisturize the skin. After a long day in the sun its important to exfoliate your skin to remove dry skin. It's also good to exfoliate before tanning {the safe way of course} to ensure smooth, even color.

KMS California MOISTREPAIR leave-in conditioner

KMS California MOISTREPAIR leave-in conditioner ($18.49, available at salons nationwide)

This product is a weightless leave in-conditioner that adds moisture and compatibility. It is great for when you are sitting on the beach in the sun all day! After going for a swim, a few spritz is all it takes to detangle your hair and keep it moist all day. I've already worked through an entire bottle of this divine spritz - it's the perfect thing for quenching all the curls in my house!

Rimmel London Stay Glossy 3D Lip Gloss

Rimmel London Stay Glossy 3D Lip Gloss ($4.99, available at drugstores nationwide)

Bring your lips into a new dimension with a multi-colored shine coming from every angle! Thanks to its new color changing sparkles, your lips will look fuller, shinier and with a stunning color change depending on the light. I like that the gloss is not super sticky and the sparkles are just enough to make your lips look plump and full without looking like a disco ball.

Rimmel London ScandalEyes Retro Glam Waterproof Mascara

Rimmel London ScandalEyes Retro Glam Waterproof Mascara ($6.99, available at drugstores nationwide)

The latest addition to the wildly popular ScandalEyes line, this new mascara allows you to get a bold, wide-eyed false lash look. The exclusive hour-glass brush shaped to the lash line to plump lashes, fanning them up and out for bold, wide-eyed volume. This mascara coats lashes individually for a big, false lash look in one simple stroke. Bonus: no clumps!
