| As the sun finally gets hotter and hotter, people are itching to go to the beach. I don’t know about you, but all winter I’ve been craving a hot beach day. Winter is nice, but nothing beats sand between my toes, salt water in my hair, and the sun on my face. Every summer my go to is a beach bag filled with all the necessary summer essentials. Packing for a quick beach trip or a sun-filled vacation can be stressful, but here are some must-haves every girl needs in her beach bag this summer. This is a no brainer, but first you need an awesome bag. Make sure you select a tote that’s big enough to fit all your essentials and sturdy enough to last the season. Target, T.J. Maxx, Aerie, and Nords trom are great stores to check out to find that perfect bag. Another great summer necessity is the NKD SKN Pre-Shower Tan. This lotion is the easiest way to get the perfect tan. Apply the lotion 10 minutes before showering and it leaves you with a great base tan! Some givens for the perfect beach bag include sunscreen, lip protectant, sunglasses, and a cute beach towel. Be sure to use a sunscreen that is suitable for your skin type and that has the proper UV protection. Lip protectant can be a facial sunscreen or a lip balm with SPF. For sunglasses, be sure to buy a pair that is dependable to last. Rayban sunglasses are always a great idea for summer shades. While you’re lounging in the sand soaking up the sun, it’s always a good idea to bring a great summer book or a speaker to listen to music with friends.
