EDITOR'S NOTEI always see the week after Memorial Day as the start of summer, and I’m ready for it. I spent this weekend hiding from the rain with my current beachy read (we have our extensive list coming soon) and pulling together all my essentials for staying comfortable and cool. Here are the five products I can’t go without in the summer months: Archies. They’re a basic rubber flip-flop with substantial arch support, making them extra comfortable. Kosas Chemistry Deodorant. We gave this one a Good for You Award this year. I love this deodorant because it goes on clear and doesn’t irritate my sensitive skin. Flamingo’s Pubic Razor. This is the best razor of all time, hands down. I use it under my arms, on my legs, and along my bikini line. It gives me a smooth, close shave every time. Abercrombie Swimwear. In my opinion, nothing beats it. I have styles still going strong after five years of wear. Shark’s ChillPill. This 3-in-1 device is a mini fan, cooling plate, and mister. If you’re prone to overheating, keep this in your bag at all times. Read my full review.
What are some summer staples you swear by every year? Let us know for a chance to be featured here. —Margo Ghertner / Commerce Editor / Atlanta, GA |
