There’s a lot to love about summer. Unfortunately, sticky summer days aren’t exactly good for your beauty goals. Before you plan all your summer trips and day dream about relaxing by the pool, make sure you’re equipped with this season’s beauty essentials. If you don’t know where to start (because there will be a lot of new products hitting the shelves!), how about loving your own and taking a look at the local beauty brands?
