Must-Have Summer Beauty Products from NIVEA and More

To accentuate your natural summer glow, your warm weather beauty regimen should be minimal and low maintenance.  For a refreshed feeling, bath and body products with light floral and natural scents are best.  Here are some of the beauty picks Everything She Wants can't get enough of this summer (and beyond).

Body

NIVEA's Touch of Frangipani is a hydrating shower gel that entices with the fresh fragrance of Hawaiian Frangipani flowers (also called Plumeria) and moisturizing pearls made with sunflower oil. Developed with NIVEA's breakthrough Hydra IQ Technology, your skin will feel refreshed long after you shower.

Vitabath's "Spa Day" Fragrance Collection's hydrating lotion comes in several de-stressing, therapeutic scents including Lavender Chamomile Hydrating Lotion, Green Tea & Sage, Citron Leaves and Cucumber & White Tea. Each paraben-free lotion moisturizes your skin with a mix of aloe vera, safflower and olive oils for smooth, supple skin.

Made with handcrafted Shea Butter, beeswax, African wild honey and a blend of essential oils, Alaffia's Africa's Secret Multipurpose Skin Cream is a miracle worker on sunburn, cuts and bruises, and an excellent balm to moisturize dry patches on your elbows and feet. Sales from the cream fund community empowerment projects in the West African country of Togo.


Hair

Agadir Argan Oil products are made with 100% pure, certified argan oil (extracted from the rare and exotic nut of the Argan tree).  The lightweight product line includes a daily volumizing shampoo and conditioner, oil hair treatment and a spray treatment (our favorite).

Face

Voted the best new product of 2012, Me & the Girls' Bar Beleza Multi-Use Beauty Bar is rich in luxe cupuacu seed butter and works interchangeably as a light, non-greasy day moisturizer, a non-foaming oil cleanser and an all-in-one primer and conditioner.

Lips


NIVEA's lip balms are already the bomb; "A Kiss of Olive Oil & Lemon" keeps our kisser chap-free.  And now, thanks to NIVEA's "Style, Uncapped" campaign, consumers get the chance to design and purchase their own lip care caps with an array of colors and over 400 patterns and symbols to choose from. To kick off the program, fashion designer Rebecca Minkoff created a limited-edition design, inspired by her spring 2013 collection, which is available for purchase on the "Style, Uncapped" microsite.

Me at the Amazon Swim Shop preview. The online shop is stocked year-round with trendy and timeless swimsuit styles, cover ups and swim accessories from your favorite brands.
