8 of the Best Summer Beauty Essentials
Summer is right around the corner and we are definitely looking forward to sun, sea and sand. However, we’re also faced with some of summers biggest problems: knotted hair, melting make-up, tan/burn lines and unwanted hair in unwanted places… Vicky is here to help.
For your locks Dove: Shampoo and conditioner
Lets face it the main concern of summer is the fact that as soon as we so much as look at the sea, our hair becomes a knotted, scraggly version of seaweed attached to our heads, definitely not ideal – especially if you’re after a summer romance.
Our hero product for hair care comes from Dove’s advanced hair series: Oxygen & Moisture Conditioner. The conditioner gently moisturises fine, flat hair whilst keeping volume within it for the beachy look.
Bikini Girls also LOVE the Nutritive Solutions: Shampoo as it has nutri-keatin actives to deeply nourish and repair even the most damaged hair. So, be sure to keep these packed away safely in your suitcase.
Roots: Instant root concealer powder by Charles worthington
The sunkissed look might be gorgeous on the skin but it’s definitely not a win-win situation when your roots are a totally different colour to the rest of your hair. Combat this issue with hair-care saviour as root fix: Instant Root Concealer Powder from Charles Worthington.
Extremely simple to use, you brush it over your roots just once and you’re good to go – seriously it’s that easy and no one will have a clue that your roots are visible.

Hair Removal: SmoothSkin Bare
Whiten your smile: Diamond Whites - Black edition
Pair your golden glow with gleaming white teeth and you won’t need any other accessory. Bikini Girls have been trialling some of the best teeth whitening products on the market for summer and our favourite is definitely Diamond Whites – Black Edition tooth polish.
Made from activated charcoal you simply wet your toothbrush and dab it on the top of the charcoal then brush your teeth as normal. I noticed whiter results within three days; the best bit is it’s completely 100% natural ingredients so no damage to your teeth will occur.
Our only warning is be careful how hard you spit – the black toothpaste can go EVERYWHERE!
