Summer Nail Essentials

Summer is the perfect time to step out of your comfort zone and try a daring new pop of polish. I've put together six of my favorite summer colors, and it may come as no surprise that Essie is my favorite brand!

1. Set in Stone - Best described as mirror disco ball chaos! Apply this luxeffect top coat to any color and prepare to be wowed. I like to add it to my ring finger for a unique twist on my manicure.  

2. Cascade Cool - I recently applied this pink Cascade Cool to my toes and couldn't help but smile every time I looked down at them.

3. Playdate - Every since I was a little kid I've had a special place in my heart for purple shades. This purple makes the cut for me, as well as my inner six year old.

4. Mint Candy Apple - Mint Candy Apple stands in my top five nail polish colors for any season. You can find me summer or fall, rockin this polish, plus mint is a huge color this season.

5. Fear or Desire - I have a bright orange crush on this polish! I'll often paint only my pinky finger with it, while the rest of my fingers are painted a hot pink!

6. Go Overboard - This blue polish is a constant reminder of the ocean, no wonder it makes me so happy!

Summer Essentials

The summertime often calls for a few extras when it comes to my beauty routine.  With the sweltering heat and humid air, it takes an extra effort to keep looking your best.  I've compiled a list of some of my absolute favorite products I use during the summers.

1. Coral Reef by Essie - This bright coral is the perfect pop of color for my pedicure. 

2. Tan Towels - These are amazing!  Whenever I'm in a rush out the door I can use one of these towelettes in a hurry.  Plus they save your skin from the sun!

3. Moroccan Oil - I've been using Moroccan Oil for years and I'm a fan.  I always run the oil through the tips of my hair before blow drying and it gives my hair a shine with a soft touch to boot.

4. Marc Jacobs Woman - This is the perfect light weight fragrance for summer.  It has a light gardenia scent that is the perfect accent to my July.

5. Eos Honeysuckle Honeydew Lip Balm - If you know me, you know I'm a sucker for packaging.  This Eos lip balm's sphere shape is too cute to pass up.

6. The Body Shop's Pink Grapefruit Body Butter - Pink Grapefruit tops the list of my favorite summertime fruit, so imagine my surprise when I find this body butter.  It has the fresh light scent of grapefruit yet a creamy buttery texture.  It's like my own personal heaven in a jar!

What are your summertime essentials?
