Beach-Chic Beauty Tips 2010

A girl's gotta enjoy the sun and sand. It's summer, afterall, and there are few greater pleasures in life than lounging pool or beachside with your drink -- and mate -- of choice.

Here is my list of must-haves for beach-chic beauty 2010:

FACE:

Per-fekt Beauty Skin Perfection Gel - A hybrid between a primer, tinted moisturizer and foundation all in a gel formulation makes this product sweat and water-resistant while giving skin flawless, sheer and even coverage. Helps to reduce redness and pore size while perfectly suitable for all skin types -- and quite handy for beach and swim. Oil Free. Fragrance-free. Paraben-free. Comes in 4 hues plus a clear.  TIP - For a more bronzed look, try one shade darker than your natural skin tone. PRICE: $57.50

EYES:

Dior DiorShow Waterproof Mascara - The iconic mascara goes waterproof. Eyes don't need much in the summer -- especially at the beach or pool -- but a few coats of mascara always makes the lashes giddy. TRY brown instead of black - not as dramatic or intense yet still adds color, volume and length. PRICE: $22.95

LIPS:

Josie Maran Magic Marker Lip & Cheek Stain - There are very few things as convenient as gliding on a pen to your lips. Now you can add color, in stain format so it last all day even through heat and humidity with Josie's newest product. With 6 rosy hues to choose from, a pop of color adds character to your pout -- and lasts longer than a gloss or lipstick. BONUSE: dab on cheeks and blend in a circular motion for a flush of color to face. PRICE: $19.00
