Cetaphil Summer Essentials

Bryan and I just got back from our AMAZING trip to the Four Seasons Bora Bora. While packing, I thought it would be fun to snap a few shots of some of the items I packed for my beach bag!

While headed into tropical heat, it was necessary to add a few extra ingredients to my skincare routine, so besides my fave sunscreen and hand cream, I added in Cetaphil Gentle Skin Cleanser and DailyAdvance Lotion. Because of sunburn, sand, and salt water, I wanted something super gentle that would soothe AND cleanse, so I knew I could count on Cetaphil’s crazy mild formula. Same goes for the lotion which is honestly as hydrating as it gets…even for sensitive skin!

I also brought along my BeautiControl sunscreen, and a great hydrating mask and made sure to have PLENTY of water on hand to make up for all those cocktails by the pool.

Other must-haves on the trip include fun shorts, a great ipad case, a striped hat, pretty reading material, and some fun patterned pants to keep the sun at bay when the harsh rays strike.
