7 Things You Need To Bring To Make Your Last-Minute Beach Trip Perfect

1. Facial Sunscreen

Although many people do, you should not use the same sunscreen on your face that you use on your body. It can easily cause your skin to break out and clog your pores. I recommend using the Neutrogena Ultra Sheer Dry-Touch because it is lightweight and it has never caused a breakout for me.

I use this, almost if not every day in the summer when I know I will be outside.

2. Sunscreen

The obvious, I know. But you need to protect your skin. I love the SunBum sunscreen because it is lightweight and has a nice coconut smell to it.

3. Reusable Water Bottle

You are going to need to stay hydrated when you are out in the sun for the day. I love to pack my Hydroflask full of ice and water before I leave the house and drink it throughout the day when I am on the beach. You do not have to buy the Hydroflask but buy something similar that will keep your drink nice and cold for the day.

4. Bluetooth Speaker

Bluetooth speakers are perfect for when you're laying out at the pool with friends trying to relax. Music is a great way to escape and unwind during the summer. As a plus, if you get a waterproof speaker, you don't have to worry about it getting ruined during your fun summer festivities!

5. Baseball Hat

The last thing you want to be doing is squinting your eyes when you are out laying on the beach, grab your favorite cap and throw it in your bag!

6. Snacks

When you go to the beach, you most likely will be out there for a few hours, so you will need something to help you refuel. I love to bring popcorn or Cheese-Its for a quick snack.

7. Tanning Enhancer

This is something you do not need to buy, I just like to help my tan stay a little longer. After a long day at the beach, I like to shower and then use this in order for my tan to stay a little longer.
