Get: Avène Thermal Spring Water Spray
Maybe you enjoyed a campfire with the fam last night and woke up to dried out, grumpy skin. Or you've been outside all day and your face is sweaty, red, hot and well…gross. Mist this wonder stuff all over your face, and you'll feel instantly refreshed, soothed, and, just trust us, perkier. We love it after exercising, taking off our makeup, and any hair removal treatments to soothe irritated skin. It also combats redness and is safe for sensitive skin.

Get: Urban Decay Afterglow 8-Hour Powder Blush
The finely-milled powder blush sweeps on evenly and smoothly, and the sheer yet buildable colour creates a natural flush that looks just as pretty when you're doing morning drop off as it does at the end of the day. Summer calls for a glowing, lit-from-within look—and this compact delivers.

Get: The Body Shop’s Peppermint Cooling Foot Spray
We've all been there: a fun family outing that involves lots of walking can leave you feeling hot, tired and cranky—and that feeling extends right down to your toes. Your overheated feet are hot, tired, and cranky too. This cooling spray fights odour and is made with delicious smelling peppermint—trust us, it's super refreshing. Spray some on your feet for a toe-tingling sensation, and we mean that literally. If you're travelling this summer, this is a must!

Get: Cargo Matte Top Coat
Matte lipsticks stay longer and their colour stays truer long after creamy or shimmery lipsticks have faded to blah. Cargo's mattifying top coat is non-drying and paraben-free, and can be applied over any lipstick. It's the perfect way to summer-proof your favourite lip colour.

Get: Vichy Celludestock Night Time
You should rock that mom bod all the way down to the beach and be proud of it, but if you'd like a little confidence booster, try Vichy's anti-cellulite sculpting night care. Apply it before bed (it works while you sleep!) and you can actually feel it working—it kind of tingles once applied. It contains caffeine, the essential ingredient in all anti-cellulite treatments, and we like it as a handy and cheaper alternative to pricey spa treatments.

Get: Gillette Venus Swirl Razor
Contouring's not just for your face anymore. This razor is set atop a rolling, swivelling flexiball, so it moves over every bump and curve (like knees and ankles) without nicking your skin or leaving hair behind. That, combined with a handle with an actual grip, makes us wonder why no one ever thought of this before.
-
Get: Maybelline Lash Sensational Mascara
We're kind of mascara connoisseurs, and for stay-all-day, no-smudge, no-flake, no-smear lasting power, this is our pick. It lifts and thickens lashes, it's not impossible to get off, and it comes at a drugstore price. Here's looking at you, kid!

Get: Klorane Hair Dry Shampoo
Just trust us, we've tried a lot of dry shampoos. They're perfect for extending a blow-out, skipping a wash (so handy if you've got a newborn at home), adding oomph to up-dos and giving fine-haired beauties a little lift at the roots. But too many have strong, unpleasant scents and leave behind white reside. This is the only one for us: it's formulated with oily hair in mind, it leaves behind no residue (it's invisible even on dark hair) and it's non-drying, so it's safe for frequent use.

Get: Burt's Bees Aloe & Linden Flower After Sun Soother
You were careful with the sunscreen all day, but your skin is still looking a little sun-kissed. Before that dry, tight feeling sets in, give your skin an extra boost of moisture with a body and face lotion made specifically for sun-soaked skin. This After Sun Soother from Burt's Bees is packed with softening coconut oil and soothing aloe vera.

Get: Fekkai Pre-Soleil Hair Mist
Summer fun isn't so easy on the tresses—especially if you have coloured locks. Just like your skin, your hair needs sun protection too. Mist on this spray before you head out the door—it has UV filters to help protect hair from sun damage, colour fade and dehydration. Your tresses will stay healthy and nourished and your colour true. Bonus: it also adds shine and controls frizz. We love it for active days when a hat isn't practical.

Get: Dove Original Dry Spray Antiperspirant
Oh, that most basic of warm weather necessities: a good underarm antiperspirant. We love the light but fresh scent of Dove antiperspirant, and their new spray not only feels dry as soon as it goes on, it's also completely invisible.
