2026 summer beauty guide - Ep 107
Summer is loading and it’s around this time of year that I notice myself making some swaps in my beauty routines!
Whether it’s trying more heatless hairstyles to give my hair a break or wearing less makeup on a day to day basis, summer is the time when I feel I can embrace my natural beauty most of all.
But that doesn’t mean I’m not still getting a little glam here and there. Today I’ll share my summer beauty favorites from everyday makeup to beach bag essentials and even hair products that will give you the hair of your dreams.
Plus, I’m not immune to shopping and what’s trending now so I’ll share the 2026 beauty trends you should know and what’s in my cart right now, so please either tell me to buy the things I’m eyeing or deinfluence me.
