The Best Beauty Products You Need By the Beach

The New Beauty Products You Need This Summer

I love sharing my favourite beauty products with you, whether they be the best of luxury beauty or otherwise. Today I wanted to share the best new summer beauty products that I loved (and even finished some of them!) while I was by the beach in Jamaica. All these products are perfect to take care of yourself during the heat and under the summer sun. I’m including the best suncare, including the best SPF and after sun care lotion, my favourite salt spray to get the best beach waves and an amazing serum to keep your skin healthy and glowing. Your summer skin is about to thank you! Comment below with which of these products you’ll be trying this summer.

Gisou Honey Hair Oil

I think this is one of my holy grail hair products for sure. I am very particular about what I put on my hair so I would only recommend the best to you. I love this Gisou hair oil because it’s paraben and sulphate free; it’s only full of the good stuff for your hair! You only need a couple of drops to instantly feel the moisture in your hair. I use this everyday in London but I was using it much more in Jamaica to hydrate my hair after sun exposure and the salt water from the ocean!

I bought my second bottle in January and I’m not even half way through it so you know this product lasts a while!

Rituals Suncare Range

This was my first time trying out the Rituals suncare range and I was so pleasantly surprised. Their sunscreen comes in SPF 30 and 50 (I opted for 30) and I loved the milky texture of it. It hydrates your skin while protecting you from UV Rays. It is also water resistant so you know you’ll be protected while you’re in the water!

To all my fellow brown girls, I know that tanning isn’t always our favourite thing but I actually love a good tan! Sometimes we struggle to get that perfect golden colour under the sun but the trick to achieving the perfect tan is having the right after sun care. The Rituals after sun care has aloe vera in it so it’s very soothing and cooling and it also helped me to get the colour I wanted! Five stars to this range!

Gisou Wave Spray

I struggle with wave sprays but the Gisou wave spray works so perfectly in my hair and helps me achieve those amazing beach waves! Again, like all Gisou products, there are no harmful chemicals in here so you know it’s okay to use in your hair! After washing my hair I would spritz this on and then scrunch my hair in a bun for a few hours!

The next day, I had the perfect beach waves! Totally continuing this while I’m in London too!

Perricone MD Cold Plasma +

I’ve recently changed up my skincare routine and it consists of mainly Perricone MD! They are one of the oldest apothecaries in the world so they really know what they are talking about. Their latest product is called Cold Plasma + and is an amazing everyday serum to help brighten and firm your skin. I did their seven day trial while I was away and I got so many compliments about how my skin had an amazing glow! I have this amazing cream to thank for that. I love that it’s quite light weight so it doesn’t clog your pores up in the heat and humidity!

The Ouai Rose Body & Hair Oil

The Ouai is another haircare brand that I love but my favourite product is actually their Rose Body Oil! This oil is multi-purpose so you can use it on your hair too, but I like to use it on my body after the shower in the summer to get glowing skin (make sure you put it on your elbows, collarbone and knees!). It also smells amazing and gives my skin the hydration it needs without being too much!

Another product that I think will become one of your favourites for a long time!

Speaking of The Ouai, the shampoo that I carry on me for beach holidays is their Clean Shampoo! I love it because it isn’t drying on your hair (especially if you have to wash your hair everyday! I don’t usually wash my hair daily but on a beach holiday you have to!) and is also totally paraben and sulphate free!

Friday Favourites #12

Thank God It’s

Happy Friday! A lot of you have been messaging me about beauty favourites and as we finally hit the warmer months, it’s time to spring clean your beauty routine! Getting your skin ready for spring and summer with a specialised spring beauty routine is something that I want to talk to you about in more depth through the coming months. For today though, let’s start with some of my favourites to getting your skin looking as bright and beautiful as possible!

If you have any product recommendations for me, please leave them non the comments below! I would also love to know if you guy want Friday Favourites to have a theme!


One of the most important parts of any routine is SPF. Whether it’s a sunny day or not, UV rays can affect your skin in so many negative ways and it’s important to protect yourself!

This cream from Perricone MD is perfect for city life because it not only is SPF 30 but creates a barrier between your skin and the harsh pollution of a city! I’ve been using it every single day and I couldn’t been happier! A cult favourite for me now!

Under eye cream is as important as any day cream in your bathroom cupboard! I’ve been using this one from Shishedo as as has my mother. We’ve both seen such a change in our under eye complexion. This cream is great for helping with fine lines, and puffiness! I’ve recommended it to a few of you now and wanted to share it with all my readers!

Your face is one thing, but don’t forget about your legs! It’s time to shed any dry and old skin and encourage cell and skin rejuvenation! A good scrub is the perfect way to get your legs looking fresh and gorgeous! I personally love this one from Aesop and have been using it for years now! It’s a must have for sure!

Every new season needs a new scent too doesn’t it? A few weeks ago I covered this beautiful Chloe perfume; Nomade. I love how it’s a mix of summer florals and citrus. It sits so beautifully on the skin and develops through the day into such a fresh scent! If you’re looking for a new perfume, I recommend this one!

Last but not least, I find that I like to swap out my body moisturiser for body oils during the summer. It’s a bit more light weight and they usually smell heavenly. My latest addition to my beauty cabinet is this Rose oil from Ouai. It’s for body and hair but I use it mainly on my body because I love how it makes my skin shine!
