- What's up, everybody?
If you follow me on Instagram, you hopefully have noticed
that I absolutely love the beach,
whether it's traveling the world
or right here in my home, LA.
We are here at the beach house in Malibu,
where I absolutely love, love, love to spend time,
especially my down time.
I love just coming out here with my husband,
relaxing, going down to the beach,
and this is the beach bag that I take with me,
and I'm about to show you
all the things that are inside of it
to make sure that I'm having fun in the sun
and that I'm fully prepared,
I don't have to walk all the way back up and grab stuff,
it's all right here.
The beach bag alone is popping too.
I actually got this at Planet Blue, here in Malibu,
and I love it because of the colorful pompoms on it,
it's super sturdy, and it's big enough to hold everything.
I know some people like smaller beach bags.
I need a big one because I've got
a lot of things to take with me.
All right, first thing's first,
you need a blanket, a towel blanket.
Okay, I'm obsessed with this because it's considered
a luxury beach blanket and it's actually by
a company called Kassatex.
But guess what?
I got it at Bed, Bath, and Beyond.
I love the color of it, I love that it's huge
and it's big enough to lay out
as like a huge picnic blanket, almost.
But it's got the feel of a picnic blanket on this side,
and the feel of a towel on this side.
How cool is that?
And I love the little tassels, it's super pretty,
and like, I just love the color blue,
especially by the ocean.
All right, so once your blanket is laid down,
ready for all the essentials, here they go.
I would say first thing's first,
you definitely wanna make sure you've got your shades on,
get a good pair of sunnies.
These I've been rocking, if you look at my Instagram,
you know that I wear these all the time
and I've been rocking them literally since last summer.
They are by Christian Dior,
and I love them because they're rose gold,
and you know I have a love for rose gold.
My engagement ring and my wedding bands
are both rose gold, so I love, love, love these frames,
and they also have the white marble on the side,
which I thought was pretty cool.
So, sometimes sunglasses can be huge,
and these are perfect.
They've been smushed and smashed in my beach bag.
One thing that I forgot in this bag
is my sunglass case.
Make sure you keep your glasses
inside of their case so that they're protected
and they don't get scratched up
or beat up like mine.
The next essential is sun protection.
Now, I'm not gonna lie, I totally thought
this was so annoying when I was younger.
Now that I'm older, I understand that
it's not just about being vain and, like,
oh, I wanna make sure that my skin stays young.
Yes, we do wanna protect our skin for vanity purposes,
but guys, for health purposes as well.
Skin cancer is a real thing,
so you definitely wanna make sure that
you're wearing sun protection every single day.
Even if there's overcast, you wanna put on your sunscreen.
So this is my favorite one for multiple reasons.
One, I just love the brand Glossier
and everything that they do,
but I love the packaging of it.
I actually use this every day,
even when I'm not at the beach.
This is like a must.
But get this, guys, am I the only one
that freaking hates wearing sunblock and turning white?
I just went on a family vacation
for my brother-in-law's 40th birthday to the Cayman Islands,
and when I tell you everyone was walking around
literally with like a pasty, chalk-white faces,
and I was like, that is not gonna be me,
I'm trying to look cute for the 'gram.
Why?
Because I had Glossier Invisible Shield.
It's amazing.
I was passing it around and making all my family use it.
I was like, ladies, that white face is not it.
Now that your skin is protected, let's talk about your hair.
Whether it's in chlorine or the beach water,
my hair gets so trashed by the salt,
so it is so important to make sure that
you put in a leave-in conditioner in your hair.
I absolutely love It's A 10's Miracle Leave-In.
I swear by this stuff.
Like, literally I'll be swimming
and doing so much stuff,
and I have knots in my hair that are unreal
that later on are like, how am I gonna get this out?
Boom, this is literally the miraculous answer.
I spray tons of this in my hair,
literally soak it in the leave-in conditioner,
and then I always keep a brush in my beach bag
because my hair just naturally tangles easily,
and after swimming in the ocean or swimming in the pool
and then getting out, it just sits in the sun and mats,
so I make sure that I always have a brush in my beach bag,
and this kind of brush is my favorite.
It's actually by Ecotools,
and I actually just got it at my drug store.
And then another must-have is spare scrunchies.
I've even gotten my husband into the habit of
having a scrunchy on his wrist,
because somebody always needs one,
either a girlfriend or a family member.
They'll be like, does anybody have a hair tie,
and I'm like, hold on a second.
It's real, like literally, you're always gonna need one
and it's perfect to have it in there.
I like to just pull my hair up into a top knot
and have all the nutrients of the conditioner
just soaking in there.
It's like a little hair treatment
while I'm relaxing in the sun.
As much as I love nothing more
than hearing the waves crashing at the beach,
sometimes you need a little music, right?
But how rude is it when you come with, like,
a full on ghetto blaster,
and you're playing music?
Everybody doesn't wanna hear your music, okay?
And I know this, 'cause sometimes
people have their music on and I'm like,
that's not the vibe I was feeling.
That ain't my vibe, that's your vibe,
keep that to yourself.
So, I have fallen in love with my Air Pods.
I actually recommend that you create
a beach playlist that you absolutely love
that gives you all the vibes.
These are super cool because they're wireless.
They go right in your ear, just like this.
No wires, you're just like, hey!
You're vibing to your own music.
Like I said, I have a playlist that goes.
It's got Fleetwood Mac on it,
it's got the song Joker, it's got The Eagles,
a little Paul Simon, Juan Luis Guerra.
That's more of my Latin, Caribbean beach vibes,
but this is my Malibu beach vibes.
So, I love these.
Create your own vibe.
It's also amazing if you're reading a book.
Is that like old and fuddy-duddy?
Whatever, you guys, don't judge me.
Air Pods.
Onto the next.
Makeup, beach makeup.
Okay, if you're gonna wear makeup at the beach,
it has to look natural.
You can't have powdery makeup on,
so I love, love, love a clean,
dewy, fresh look down at the beach,
so I'm gonna show you some of my favorite
beauty essentials that I have in my bag as well.
So here they are, let's start with
Cherry Bomb Dot Com by Glossier.
Okay, I love this for multiple reasons.
It's actually a universal skin salve.
It tastes like old school cherry chapstick.
It's very Katy Perry, cue the song.
♪ Cherry chapstick ♪
You know, I kissed a girl and I liked it?
This brings all the vibes.
They actually have it in another flavor
that I really love, which is coconut.
Again, more of my Caribbean feels.
But I love this.
It actually has a little bit of a reddish tint,
which makes your lips look super healthy,
and juicy, and kissable.
Next, I love a good cream blush.
I'm actually wearing one right now in my favorite colors.
I got them at Mac, and they actually come in separates,
like you can pick the color that you want,
and they put 'em in these cute little palettes for you,
set up like this.
How cute is that, right?
The orangey one on top is called Rich Coral,
and the one of the bottom is called Virgin Isle.
I'm gonna blend that in.
If you're taking sun, you're just chillin',
but then you wanna take a few pictures for the 'gram,
you just pop on a little bit of this,
and you're cute in just a few seconds.
And it actually already kinda makes you look sun kissed
without having to sit in the sun and fry your face.
It gives the look of little sun kissed cheeks.
And again, I love that it's not a powder.
It's easily blendable.
You wanna look dewy.
You're gonna be sweaty in the sun,
packing on powder is terrible.
It looks awful and it can't be good for your skin.
A must, it's all the rage people,
highlight, highlight, highlight,
but this one is, again, a cream highlight
that I'm so obsessed with.
It's by Hourglass.
I actually use this even when I'm not at the beach.
I use at at the real, and the is in Champaign Flash.
I actually highlight everything with this.
I actually use it, obviously, up here on my cheekbones.
Love this, I'm gonna get it super blendable.
That's literally all the makeup you need at the beach.
After you've been sitting at the beach all day,
you know, you might get a little sweaty.
It's been hot, you've been sitting out there for a minute,
sea salt, you might wanna freshen it up.
So I, of course, always carry around
my signature scent, my perfume,
which is by Tocca, and it's called Florence.
So it's just a nice little freshen up.
Not saying you're stinking or anything,
but you definitely wanna freshen up your fragrance.
I've been wearing this perfume
for over 10 years, and I love it that
my husband's the one that pointed out
that it was my signature scent, and he loves it.
It's my favorite, and I think especially
when you're making memories at the beach,
just being able to connect a scent to that
is really sexy and memorable.
Every time he smells it, he can think of, you know,
beautiful moments on the beach or anywhere.
Bring some inspiration!
And you can jam for inspiration.
Okay, am I the only one that gets
so inspired by magazines?
Like, I'll make better choices on what I eat,
I get inspired for hairstyles,
what I wanna wear for dinner that evening.
You know, do I wanna wear soft, beachy waves
like Rihanna on the cover of Vogue?
Yes, girl.
So, bring a book, bring an audiobook, bring a magazine.
So, my bag is packed.
That was my beach essentials.
I'm so curious as to what's inside of your beach bag.

Hope you're having so much fun this summer!
