LifestyleLet’s Have Some Fun In The Sun: What Goes In Your Beach Bag?

Summer cool-offs just got interesting! It’s time to head to the beach or the poolside to cool off, while you sipping on margaritas and soaking in the high tides, good vibes and some much needed Vitamin D. Not to forget grooving to your favourite beats. 

But don’t forget your beach bag essentials because they help you stay glam and well-prepared to beat the heat. We’ve got you covered with some of the basics that go right in!

1. Swim dresses and bodysuits for the beach

There’s nothing like the feeling of dipping your toes in the sand and listening to the sound of the crashing waves as you let the scenic views around you sink in. All that’s left is to find yourself a swimsuit that will offer you both functionality and coverage, without having to worry about giving up your style quotient. 

If you’re looking for one-piece swimwear that offers high coverage, then Swim Dresses and Bodysuits are the perfect choices! These flattering and supportive designs give you a sporty beach look and let you swim in the ocean with that feeling of unending comfort and freedom.

2. Bikinis and Tankinis by the pool

How many bikinis are too many bikinis? We can’t find the answer to that question either! We’re here to tell you that as temperatures soar and you’ve got sunbathing on your mind, finding the right bikinis to relax in becomes super important. 

You get to pick Bikinis and Tankinis in a range of fun and bright colours and patterns that you can sport while showing off that tan. Get that sexy look that you can take right with you to the pool because these styles will definitely help you make that fashion statement this summer.

3. Some Sunscreens, Lippies, and Wipes for extra skincare lovin’ 

Sunscreens are a given when you’re heading out this summer, but so are other skincare essentials that will keep your skin feeling nourished, healthy, and free from sunburns. Remember to look for a Sunscreen that has a good SPF to prevent tanning, heat rashes or dry and flaky skin. Additionally, you could carry along an SPF Lip Balm that will keep your lips feeling hydrated and plump.

Staying in the pool for long hours can also lead to skin and hair damage, you could look for an effective solution like a Serum or Spray that will keep you protected from chlorine, saltwater and UV damage. 

Finally, spending long hours under the sun can lead to sticky and sweaty skin, so you will want to carry some Wet Wipes with you so that you can instantly feel refreshed whenever you need a dose of freshness!

4. Sarongs, kaftans, ponchos and robes to cover-up

When the heat turns up and you want some extra sun protection, all you’ve got to do is turn to some breezy Cover-ups! Whether you want to choose between a Sarong, a Kaftan, or a Poncho, you can be assured that these airy styles will do the trick. You won’t have to worry about overdoing your tan and keep your look casual post-swim.

5. Sunglasses, Hats, and Flip flops for a stylish edge

Your summer vacay is hardly complete without some Instagrammable pictures and it’s all about the right aesthetics! You’ve got to be prepared with a pair of shades that will keep your eyes protected from harmful UV rays. You can also find a pair of stylish hats (maybe even a chic straw hat) that will keep your scalp and hair sheltered. Don’t forget some easy-to-slide flip flops and of course, a bottle of water to keep yourself hydrated and you’re good to go!
