Welcome To The Glambitious World: My Top 10 Beach Essentials

Hey guys! Hows everyone doing on a wet Sunday? Just had a hearty meal over at my Grandmother's place, so I feel like I'm ready to start on this week's blog post!

So i went to Sentosa on the 26th of June which was on Thursday with 2 of my girlfriends. Before we headed to the beach we were a little hungry and decided to grab a pizza from Bora Bora Margarita Bar located near the beach.

And here's my full outfit for that day:

Haha everything's from Cotton On except for the black see through top which is from H&M.

Not going to dwell too much on the pizza. It was mediocre. This is how it looked like :

We found the perfect spot with the right amount of shade AND sun.

The weather was absolutely perfect that day.

OKOK ENOUGH OF RAMBLING. LETS START WITH THE MAIN REASON OF THIS BLOGPOST!

So here are My Top 10 Beach Essentials!

1) Shades/ Sunglasses- Very important to keep direct sunlight away from my precious eyes. And also keeps the salt water from stinging your eyes. I own many so I choose according to what I'm wearing that day. B-)

2) Lip balm- This one by Giovanni is my absolute fave! Firstly because its in the flavour of Peppermint Treat. And secondly because it has a whopping SPF value of 35!

3) A long lasting lip colour- Since I wasn't wearing much makeup, I decided to add a pop of colour on my lips. So I chose M.A.C's lipstick in Candy Yum Yum which is a bright neon pink with a matte finish. Then i go over my lips with my favourite lip balm to protect them.

4) elf's Healthy Glow Bronzing Powder in Sunkissed - This product is perfect in achieving that beautiful beach glow. It looks so natural on tanned skin like mine. I usually apply this with my finger on areas where the sunlight will naturally hit on. Like my cheek bones, down the bridge of my nose and on my temples.

5) Wet wipes/Tissues- Always good to have some in your bag. I'm sure you don't need me to explain why. ;))

6) Hand Sanitizer- I don't only bring this to the beach. I actually carry this everywhere I go. Love the ones from Bath&Body Works! So many flavours to choose from!

7) Hair ties- Sometimes when the weather gets hotter you just have to change your hairstyle and rock a sexy beach bun.

8) Body mist/spray- I love light smelling yet long lasting fragrances. So this one from The Body Shop is perfect. Its the Moroccan Rose body mist. Sadly, they've discontinued this scent and replaced it with another similar rose one. Need to pick it up soon since I'm running out of this.

9) Cetaphil Daily Facial Moisturiser- With SPF 15, it's a must have for me since my skin will be exposed to the sun a lot. Absorbs into the skin really fast too!

10) WATER- I can't stress enough how important it is to bring along a water bottle. Since you're out in the sun, its easy to get dehydrated fast. Many people tend to forget or be ignorant when it comes to bringing water along. Also because a bottle of water at places of attraction like the beaches at Sentosa can cost a hefty $3. So don't waste your money and bring a water bottle along wherever you go!

Ok so that was my Top 10 Beach Essential. I hope you liked it! These are just some of the basic things that can be found in my beach bag along with some towels and a spare change of clothes. :) We left the beach at around 7pm and headed back to Vivocity for dinner. Decided to have some Swiss cuisine for dinner so we went to Marché. I had their signature Rösti with Garlic Pork Sausage and a bottle of Root Beer.
