The Muse's 10 Must Have Beach Bag Essentials


The weather isn't quite right yet for the beach or the pool sigh. If you live in New York you'll understand exactly what I mean as it's not much of a Summer here in the Big Apple. However, this doesn't stop me from thinkin' up what I need for my beach bag or in my case pool bag as the Muse doesn't do the beach to well (seaweed, sand, eek!).

So here's a few items that are making a starring appearance inside my beach bag this Summer!

Everyone wants beach hair, everyone. Tousled, windblown locks that are soft, seductive, and sexy. Indeed, beach hair is where it's at! A great item to toss in your beach bag for a full head of alluring hair would be Philip B Maui Wowie Beach Mist, smells just like tropics plus I just really dig on the name.


When you're at the beach or pool you want clean, natural makeup that wears well and wears long. Morgen Schick Cheek and Lip Stain is my go to for long wearing color on my cheeks which is waterproof and incredibly flattering for a sunkissed glow!


If you're at the beach and you've SPF'ed yourself to death as is the Muse's routine you probably won't get much of a tan but you can flatter your pale white skin with hints of iridescent pink on face, eyes, and cheeks with a dollop of Eyeko Cream!


Tarte 24/7 Lip Sheers used to be my all time favorite lip treatment. Don't overlook these little tubes of pigmented joy for a Summer lip look that's natural and laced with SPF.


Keep your hair conditioned and protected from the sun with Blossom Under Cover Conditioning Mist with SPF. Frizz be gone!


Eyeko Face Off Wipes aren't great for removing a full load of face makeup but they are nice for toting around in your purse and freshening up your face with. Each box contains 10 individually wrapped wipes!


A little touch up of cooling mist for your face is always a pleasure when sitting out in the hot sun. Pack up some Evian Mist in the travel friendly can to mist your skin with to keep it fresh and dewy!


I'm the first one to admit that Loccitane Citrus Verbena Summer Fragrance tends to not linger very long however I find that in the Summer heat it manages to give off a very subtle, fresh lemony scent that I find rather ideal for beach or pool lazying!


Give your face a kiss of sun with Eyeko Face Tint! Amps up your Summer tan or gives your pale white skin a touch of Summer sun.


Hope you enjoyed my picks for hauling in my beach bag this Summer!

What are some items you stash in your beach bag?
