There are a few summer essentials that I can’t live without. These are 8 summer essentials for you and your home that you must have this summer:
1. SodaStream.
Make your own soda and sparkling water at home with regular water? Sounds easy enough and it is. SodaStream provides a healthier option to sugary drinks made right at home. Their syrups are lower in calories, carbs, sugar, sodium and caffeine than national brands. Their clear, natural and sparkling water syrups provide natural flavours without the sugars and calories. It’s very simple to use too – just screw the bottle on, pump three times and your water is carbonated.
2. Nautical Beach Tote.
Ditch the designer bag for summer and throw all of your purse essentials into a stylish beach bag like the S.S. Brighton Beach Tote. This roomy canvas tote will fit your beach gear, and then some! My mom picked one up for me while visiting Florida – isn’t she sweet?
3. Colourful Nail Polish.
I’m a fan of OPI and the line inspired by the hit television comedy, Modern Family, is no exception. My favourite of these three colours has to be Alex by the Books. See the complete OPI Modern Family line.
4. Minimal Makeup.
The only makeup you need during the summer is under-eye concealer, clear mascara and a stick of eye shadow/pencil, like the Great Lash clear by Maybelline and a Cream Eye Shadow + Liner by Marcelle.
5. A good sun tan lotion.
6. Cold Treats
Why buy ice cream when you can make it at home? This Hamilton Beach ½ Quart Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Maker makes ice cream, frozen yogurt, gelato, sorbet and more. I must have this ice cream maker.
7. Good Skin.
Showing off your skin during the summer means you need to exfoliate and moisturize. Moroccanoil Body Buff and Body Soufflé leave your skin feelings soft and silky.. Follow Moroccanoil on Facebook and Twitter @Moroccanoil.
8. Fresh local fruits and vegetables.
You need a home canning kit and jars to preserve all of summer’s goodness. All those fresh fruits and vegetables like peaches and raspberries, tomatoes – you need to save some for the winter! Canning is the only way and right now, we’re have a giveaway to get you started.
Other summer essentials? Let’s not forget vodka and fresh mint for Mojitos!
