Beach in the City – A seasonal feature about bringing the beach to the city even when you can’t take a vacation.
It is now summer in DC as I remember it – hot, humid, and everyone is miserable. Here are some of my beauty routine go-to’s to survive summer here:
* water, lots of it
* sunscreen, lots of that too
* 100% Pure Organic Lavender Seafoam Facial Cleanser
* Urban Decay Primer Potion when I wear powder shadows
* Bobbi Brown’s new Antigua Illuminating Bronzing Powder {it’s been holding up wonderfully, even better than Nars Laguna}
* iced herbal teas
* in-shower body lotions
* a sense of humor

love the in-shower lotions idea. here's a thought, why not put that lotion in the fridge and pull it out just before showering, when you put it on it will be have a cooling effect
Great ideas! I especially needed the items on this list while in Washington. Lots of SPF and loose powder were needed, especially Monday. I carried my facial mist everywhere as well. Thanks for mentioning it
I love Karley's carrot seed facial mist!!
And in shower lotions are a great idea.
