What To Pack?!

I recently went on holiday to Egypt and had the time of my life. I know many of you reading this will shortly be going on holiday or are thinking about booking one, so i thought this was the right time to recommend a few products to include in your packing.

Although i know when we go abroad we all want to catch some sun and come home with a stunning tan, it is important we protect our skin from harrmful rays and to stop ourselves from burning and having to stay out of the sun for the next couple of days...

Nivea Instant Protection SPF This suncream protects you from the moment you apply it. Some brands do not meantion that you need to apply your SPF a good half an hour before you expose yourself to the sun, half an hour is plenty of time to burn! I loved this SPF as you can throw it on and get out there, not to meantion it is also water resistant and smells lovely! Avaiable from most supermarkets, Boots, Superdrug and online it is easy to find and there seem to be plenty of offers on at the moment. http://www.nivea.co.uk/products/Sun-Care

Elizabeth Arden Eight Hour Elizabeth Arden has a whole range of Eight Hour products that are designed to keep you moisturised for, you guessed it, a whole Eight Hours! This is absolutely essential for the plane journey, where the aircon can really dry out your skin and on the return journey you can lose up to 60% of your tan on the plane if you do not moisturise. The sun will also dry out your skin, so these products will really benefit you and keep your skin looking glowing and soft in your bikini. http://www.cheapsmells.com/productPaging.php?productSex=&priceRange=&category=0&brand=Elizabeth%2520Arden&name=Eight%2520Hour&previousBrand=Elizabeth%2520Arden&cm_mmc_o=7BBTkw*Vzbp+mwzygt*aB5+mwkkwyl*HbkOz_wft+-ypwE+C+o+ZBAy&gclid=CJbmgMKo7LACFQQhtAodelT7uw

Clarins After Sun Moisturiser Self Tan Clarins have really thought of everything here and at £18 it is worth the extra pennies as it is really a three in one product. Guaranteed it has a slightly biscuity smell, it is not overbearing compared to most self tanners. It is very important you use a good after sun after sunning yourself silly all day long, it will help the skin feel cool whilst providing that much needed moisture it will have lost during the day. There are many after sun's on the market at different prices, but we all like to look tanned and glowing and this gradual tanner really stays on, even if you enjoy jumping in the pool like i do! http://www.houseoffraser.co.uk/Clarins+After+sun+moisturizer+self+tanning/114147166,default,pd.html

Aveda Limited Edition Sun Care After Sun Masque This product really is a no brainer, it's only £5 from John Lewis and works wonders on your hair. We all think of protecting our skin from the sun, but we sometimes forget our hair can also get damaged and dry. I teamed this up with a after sun shampoo, but found this was the product that really saved my hair from fading and drying out.
