On YouTube there has been a tag going on that is called "Whats In My Beach Bag" where you show what you pack in your beach,lake,ocean or even swimming pool bag! The reasoning behind these videos and blog posts is to share essentials with one another so everyone can have a enjoyable safe day! **I was going to add pictures, BUT I couldn't find the time :( sorry loves.
Here's my person list and a little explanation
Beach bag- it is by travelon and has a zipper it's a good quality and large to fit all my needs. A zipper is helpful because it keeps out things such as sand and bugs.
Water bottle- you have to stay hydrated!!! Reusable is the best choice environmentally but make sure you can bring more than one.
Sunscreen- you can get it in a ton of varieties so it works for everyone. My personal sunscreen that I bring to the beach is Hawaiian tropic Silk Hydration Lotion SPF 30, which also comes with a detachable mini sunscreen bottle which is handy for a day out where you don't need mass amounts.
SPF Lipbalm- as previously stated on a earlier post I am a big believer in chapsticks that have SPF after a burnt lips incident. My personal favourite right now is Nivea Sun Chapstick that has SPF 30 (*full review of product in blog). It's a great addition to any beach bag and is an area that is other wise forgotten about.
Sun-In - Now I wouldn't say this is an essential but for me right now it is so I thought I'd add it in. For those who don't know, Sun-In is a hair product that with the sun is used to lighten your hair. Eventually I plan to do a blog post on my hair journey so I'll explain more later why it's such an importance to me.
Tanning Oil- this product has SPF 4 in it and helps me to gain a tan. The product I have been using for over 2 years is Hawaiian tropic dry SPF 8 tanning oil. It's not a must but for me it is a big helper when it comes to get a goddess look heheh!
Here are a few extra things I bring that are fairly self explanatory;
-hair ties
-bobby pins
-towels
-extra shirt
-book
-cell phone
-ipod with headphones
-snacks
Now when I write it all out I seem like a mega over packer BUT when its all packed up it really is not that much. The other day when I was going out to the lake my dad made a comment on how "when he was a kid all they brought was a towel" and it really got me thinking on how product reliant I am! Anyways I hope you all have a wonderful day and if you have any other ideas, or items to add let me know. Peace&Love
