Summer is here! We are budding with excitement over this season’s trends and vacations. Summer is our busiest season and we always look forward to providing you with helpful content to help you plan and book your summer vacations. This year we wanted to focus on beauty and health. And why not? Beauty and health is synonymous with travel for both men and women. Just about everyone travels with some kind of hygiene item, right? We thought we’d spice things up a bit by showing you 20 of our favorite beauty and health items of the season. Keep these items in mind as you start planning your road trip. If you plan on doing more than just hitting the highways and byways, we think these items will fit beautifully in your busy lifestyle too. Love what we listed? Be sure to let us know at drivethenation.com/summerbeauty. Happy traveling!

The Cleansing Facial Wipes are perfect for travel

because you get 25 towelettes housed in a durable

package. Vacationing leaves very little time for tasks like

washing the face but these facial wipes make it super

easy to do so before bed and right after waking up.

Not sure how your skin will react to the wipes?

They are hypo-allergenic and are both fragrance-free

and dye-free. Cleanse that skin of yours easily and

safely! You can get these wipes at any drugstore

nationwide.

Packing skincare products for a trip is already daunting but

have you ever had your favorite and most expensive facial

cleanser spill all over your brand new sandals? Talk about

ruining a trip before it even starts! Not to mention if you

have to take a flight and don’t feel the need to check a bag,

you may run into some trouble with TSA if you take your

8 oz bottle of face wash. Less is more when it comes to

packing so ditch the big bottles and pack Simple Skincare’s

Cleansing Facial Wipes ($4.99). Ideal for those with sensitive

skin, this cruelty-free brand carries affordable products that

omit the yucky ingredients.

These

wipes are

hypo-allergenic

and are both

fragrance-free

and dye-free.

Makeup on vacation? Why bother,

right? Let’s face it, you should always be prepared

to look your best, even if you don’t have plans for a

fancy outing. Some products are great staples for

that reason. Bronzer is great for a sun kissed glow

but sometimes you need even more of a glisten.

We can’t get enough of NARS Albatross ($29).

This powder brush looks beautiful on just about

everyone and even though it is intended to use on

the cheeks, you can also use it as an eyeshadow.

Don’t stop there. Want to dust a bit on your hairline

for an evening goddess glow? Go for it! This blush

of all blushes made its way in our guide simply

because we love how many ways you can use it.

A little goes a long way so it’s important to use

a light hand when applying. We love the subtly

angelic glow that Albatross gives us. You can get it

from Sephora stores nationwide and Sephora.com.

“...you can also use it as an eyeshadow.”

Eucerin Daily Protection Moisturizing Face Lotion SPF 30

Stop! Don’t even think about going anywhere

without having sunscreen on your face. What’s that you

say? You’re just going to the grocery store? Don’t let

those UV rays fool you. Even a quick trek from your car

to the store can negatively affect your skin. Your best bet

is to wear sunscreen daily. Get in the habit of applying it

every morning, even if you don’t plan on spending much

time outside. We love Eucerin Daily Protection Moisturizing

Face Lotion SPF 30 ($6) for everyday use.

This sunscreen has a nice and lightweight feel making it

fantastic for guys and gals of various skin types. Not a fan

of the sunscreen-y smell? We aren’t either. You’ll be happy

to know that this sunscreen has a very mild and tolerable

sunscreen smell to it. Ladies who wear foundation and

powders on their faces won’t have to worry about smelling

as if they are going to beach everyday. SPF 30 provides

an excellent amount of protection and we love how

affordable this sunscreen is. A little goes a long way and

the convenient pump top makes for excellent distribution

of product. You can find this Eucerin Daily Protection

Moisturizing Face Lotion at most drugstores and anywhere

Eucerin products are sold.

“SPF 30 provides an

excellent amount of

protection and we

love how affordable

this sunscreen is.”

*sniff sniff* What’s that glorious smell?

We believe in taking care of all of the senses and

where would we be without the fresh smell of

summer? That’s right! Summer has a smell and

it smells divine. Clinique’s Happy Summer Spray

($63) is a limited edition item so if you’ve been lucky

enough to take a whiff of it, be sure to grab it as

quickly as you can. If you like a nice combination of

citrus and floral notes, this fragrance will be up your

alley. It’s a light scent that won’t overwhelm other

fragranced antiperspirants and lotions.

The Happy Summer Spray invokes such happiness that even taking a whiff of it on a cloudy

day can flood your mind with positive vibes and affirmations. Yep, we are that in love with it.

Take yourself on a quick mental vacation and get a bottle of Clinique’s Happy Summer Spray

at Clinique counters and at Clinique.com.

We get it. Humans sweat. It’s our bodies’ natural

way of keeping us cool. We’re not complaining

about that part. But what happens if you sweat in

situations where you’d prefer not to sweat? Like

at dinner? Or while on an interview? Certain

Dri Anti-perspirant ($4.99) is unique in that the

fragrance-free and colorless solid helps control

wetness under the arms.

Sounds too good to be true, huh?

Well, it isn’t. If users can dedicate to using this

every night, they’ll wake up to underarms that

won’t perspire as much. Of course, it won’t help

in every situation but if you’ve got a conference

to attend this summer and don’t want to scare off

potential clients, you may want to toss this in your

travel bag. The good news is it really does work.

The bad news is, it doesn’t block odor so you may

still need to wear your regular deodorant to mask

any underarm smell. We love how a product like

this can instantly provide a new level of confidence

for those with excessively sweaty underarms. You

can get Certain Dri at drugstores nationwide.

“…wake up to underarms that won’t perspire

as much.”

Not every girl wants to spend time putting on

a ton of makeup just for it to melt in the hot

summer sun. We don’t blame you! However,

if you still like to beautify while traveling, we

think you’ll love this N.Y.C Color Bronzer ($3). It

gives off the perfect amount of glow for women of

all complexions. It requires very little doctoring up. A

quick thrust of your favorite brush on your cheeks is all

that is required to deposit the right amount of glow.

If you prefer a bit more coverage, try pairing it with your favorite concealer or

lightweight tinted moisturizer. More than anything, we’ve found that this powder

photographs beautifully! Pictures last forever and if we’re going to be

in them, we need to look fantastic. Even if you’ve been

trekking up and down outlet stores or spent time

at the theme parks, this powder will somehow

manage to stay on your cheeks without budging

one bit. We love longwear beauty products

and a bronzer this sturdy and affordable is

perfect for summer travel. You can find this

bronzing powder at drugstores.

In love with cosmetics so much that you just CAN’T

go anywhere without your mascara? We totally

understand. There’s something captivating about

mascara. Mascara has a way of really making those

eyes pop and who doesn’t want to have flashy lashes

while on vacay? Raccoon eyes from a drippy mascara

is a thing of the past. Especially if you’ve got Urban

Decay’s Cannonball mascara on your side ($20). A

coat or two of this mascara means your lashes will

stand out and last throughout the day.

We’ve put it to the test by working out

while wearing it and hitting the pool while wearing it

too. It simply won’t budge. The secret behind this

mascara is its gel formula. The dense brush helps to

elongate even the tiniest of lashes and the formula

helps it last for hours at a time. Mascara lovers

simply can’t pack their travel makeup bags without

this necessity. You can get it from Sephora stores

nationwide and Sephora.com.

Clinique After-Sun Rescue Balm with Aloe

11

Whether you’ve got a bit of a sunburn from the

sun hitting your skin while road trippin’ or while

laying out to catch rays, your skin is going to need

some pampering. Suitable for all ages (but get your

pediatrician’s okay for children under 5 years old),

Clinique’s After-Sun Rescue Balm with Aloe ($23) is

not only soothing to the skin but it is healing as well.

This oil-free balm hydrates skin with a nice dose

of aloe. If you’re prone to peeling, this is a definite

must have as it ever so gently helps minimize

peeling. If sunscreen is the before, think of this

Rescue Balm as the after.

If you’ve found that your skin is super sensitive

and very warm to the touch, toss the balm in your

refrigerator for an hour or so for an extra cooling

effect. Don’t even think about heading to the beach

without this holy grail of a balm. You can grab it at

Clinique counters and at Clinique.com.

How wonderful is it to have your nails painted so

well that the polish doesn’t chip off for weeks!

Most of us think we have to go to a nail

salon and have all sorts of gels and top

coats placed on our nails to achieve the

long lasting color without chipping away.

Allow us to fill you in on a spectacular

secret – you don’t need to spend any

more money at the nail salon for those

perfectly painted nails! China Glaze

Sunsational Nail Lacquer is as good

as professional nail enamel made with

polymers and resins combined to

created a strong nail lacquer resulting

in a chip-resistant and long lasting

nail color. China Glaze also comes

in a variety of fun colors that match

any season or occasion. China Glaze

Sunsational Nail Lacquer ($7.50) can be

purchased online at ulta.com.

AvedaSunCare Protective Hair

Care for Your Hair

13

We’ve all been there. The day you spend too much

time in the sun, check the mirror after and realize your

hair is a few shades lighter. The sun’s rays aren’t just

potentially damaging to skin, but also to your hair. What

if we told you that we have just the product to protect

your hair from damaging sun rays? Consider today

your lucky day. Aveda SunCare Protective Hair Veil is a

lightweight, water-resistant hair mist that helps protect

your hair from sun exposure for up to 16 hours.

The benefits minimize color fadage, damage

and dryness. Not only is it a dream come true for your

hair, but it’s also easy to use. All you have to do is

spray a coat evenly on dry/damp hair before and during

sun exposure. Make sure to reapply after swimming.

The Aveda SunCare Protective Hair Veil ($27) can

be purchased online at aveda.com and is a must for

protecting your hair this summer!

Shick Hydro SilkDisposable Razors

14

Ohhh ladies! Looking for some must

have razors this season? We love everything about

Schick Hydro Silk razors. The original “hang out in

your shower” version is great but we’ve found that the

disposables are just as awesome. They are such must

haves for this season’s skin baring activities. Headed

to the beach and forgot to shave your legs? Worry

not! We love how these razors have 5 blades for that

ultimate close shave. As we all know, a close shave

means smoother skin and these disposable razors are

dynamic at giving the skin that “baby smooth skin” after

each and every shave.

Wanna know the best thing about this razor?

The water activated serum creates such a slick shave

that you really don’t even need to use shaving cream!

Not having to tote the shaving cream means you’ll have

more space in your suitcase for an extra pair of sandals

or two. We also love how comfortable it feels in the

hand. The rubber handle is great at helping at providing

enough control throughout the shave. Yep, we’re

impressed! Schick Hydro Silk Disposable Razors ($9)

are a must have in your travel bag this summer. You

can find them anywhere disposable razors are sold.

Carol’s DaughterBody Cleansing Scrub

Impossibly smooth and touchably soft skin.

15

After a long day at the beach

or being outside in the hot

sun - there’s nothing more

rejuvenating than taking a

warm shower and exfoliating

your skin to get rid of all the

dead skin from the day. Not

even after a hot day – but

any day in general! Exfoliating

your skin is healthy to do a

few times a week to remove

any dead skin cells.

That’s why we chose Carol’s

Daughter Body Cleansing

Scrub as one of our

products. Not only is this a

natural product that is free

of parabens, petroleum,

mineral oil, sulfates and

artificial oolors, but this

exfoliating body scrub is

safe for any skin type and

is delicately scented with

a relaxing Lavender and

Vanilla, which will leave your

skin silky smooth and softer

than you’ve ever felt before.

Carol’s Daughter Body

Cleansing Scrub ($18)

can be purchased online

at carolsdaughter.com.

Take our word for it, you’ll

never want to use any

other exfoliating body scrub

after you’ve used Carol’s

Daughter!

Josie Maran Model Citizen 100% Pure Argan Oil with Radiance

We’re big on beauty trends and we love

to stay on top of what all of the celebrities are

wearing. It looks like the biggest thing this season

is argan oil. Brands everywhere are dumping this

moisturizing oil in everything from hair products

to skincare products. Supermodel turned beauty

guru Josie Maran is known for her argan oil beauty

products. In fact, her name is synonymous with

argan oil. This summer she is doing something a

little differently and giving us some shimmer! The

1.7 oz bottle of Josie Maran Model Citizen Pure

Argan Oil with Radiance ($30) is an absolute must

have for guys and girls who love a little go.

This multi-purpose oil is loaded with Vitamin E and a captivating honey

lavender chamomile scent. Free of parabens, sulfates and phthalates, this

preservative-free oil works all over the skin, in the hair and on the nails.

We love how subtle the shimmer is. It is the perfect amount of glow for the

summer! You can get this oil at Sephora stores and online at Sephora.com.

ConairSatin Flat Iron

There’s nothing better than silky smooth hair for any

occasion. In the worst part of summer, weather can be

a major factor in determining the fate of how your hair

will end up. Whether you’re going to a formal event or

out for lunch, the Conair Satin Flat Iron was specifically

built to make your hair straighter and smoother than it’s

ever been before. Who wants a frizzy hair do? Not us!

The Conair Satin Flat Iron features Conair’s Instant Heat

technology that includes 25 variable temperature settings

for every type of hair. You have the option to select the

temperature range that’s suitable for your hair type to

help you create the look you want. The Conair Satin Flat

Iron ($20) can be purchased online or in stores. You can

kiss your frizzy hair goodbye for good from the

moment you put this flat iron through

your first section of hair until

the very last time you

use it (if that ever

happens).

Nuance Salma HayekWheat Protein Repair & Restore Shampoo

No matter the hair type, we can all agree on one thing: good

hair is healthy hair. Are we right? Since many of us guys and

gals consider our hair to be our crowns, our guide would

not have been complete without featuring a shampoo that

promises to keep those tresses perfect. If you aren’t a fan of

having sulfates and parabens in your hair care products, you’ll

love this Nuance Salma Hayek Wheat Protein Repair & Restore

shampoo ($7.99). Affordable and effective, this shampoo

contains Vitamin B5 so it is fantastic for weak tresses that

could use more bounce and sheen.

Afraid of using just any kind of shampoo because of

your color treated hair? Worry not! This shampoo is color

safe making it fantastic for those with natural hair color and

those who have dyed hair. We’ve also found that this shampoo

does beautifully at thoroughly cleansing the hair after jumping

in the pool and after hititng saltwater oceans. You can get this

shampoo from CVS.com and CVS stores nationwide.

Make Up For EverAqua Rouge

19

You know a lip color is going to be some kind of

awesome when it has the word “aqua” in it. If you are

the kind of gal that loves sporting beautiful and bright

lip colors, you are going to love Make Up For Ever’s

Aqua Rouge lippies ($24). The most frustrating thing

about this product is trying to decide which lip color

you’re going to choose. If a bright pink isn’t up your

alley, the brand carries several subtle and neutral

shades. The Aqua Rouge makes this year’s Health &

Beauty Guide simply because we find it to be a great

product to use while lounging at the beach or pool.

Of course no one really has time to keep applying

lipstick every time they hit the waves but the Aqua

Rouge lip stain just doesn’t budge. You can literally dive in 12 feet of water and emerge with

beautiful fuschia lips. We couldn’t make this up. If you prefer to have a bit more sheen to your

lips, the dual-ended lipgloss tube has a gloss at the end for eye catching sparkle. We are

enormous fans of these babies! They are sold exclusively at Sephora and on Sephora.com.

“You can literally dive in 12 feet of water and emerge with beautiful fuschia lips.”

LUSHSea Vegetable Soap

Get away to the ocean

23

The brand LUSH always knows how to make bathing and

beautifying fun. Long gone are the days of jumping into the shower

only to have a boring bar of soap to greet you. If you’re anxious to

hit the ocean but your vacation isn’t until next month, LUSH has

a fantastic way of keeping the anxiousness down a bit. A bar of

Ocean Sea Vegetable Soap ($7.95) will have you cleansed and

even more ready to hit the waves.

Made with actual seaweed and salt, this

sudsy soap not only hydrates the skin but

it moisturizes it as well. The scent instantly

took us away to the ocean and we loved

how it wasn’t an overwhelming fragrance.

Perfect for men and women, this bar is a

must have for all ocean lovers. You can

get it online at LUSHUSA.com or at a

LUSH store near you.
