So, I’m off to Mexico in just a few days!
Obviously, in such a hot, humid climate, my hair will be a BIG issue. Emphasis on big, and frizzy. And scary.
Here’s some tried-and-true hair products that will be in my beach bag at all times.
Ojon Rub-Out Dry Cleanser to Go ($10, sephora.com)
Obviously, I”m coming with a hat and sunglasses, but my hair will still be exposed. I’ve tried many dry shampoos, and this is my favorite! It’s sort of a pick-me-up and a great way to go straight from beach to poolside cocktails.
Ted Gibson Godnight Hair Repair Serum ($99, Beauty.com)
I can’t tell you how amazing this product is. At some point after my day in the sun, my hair will need some serious recoup – and this serum instantly absorbs, to repair and condition my hair. I love to wear it overnight for a super intense treatment.
Phillip B. Maui Wowie Beach Mist ($22, PhillipB.com)
Sometimes you actually crave that tousled beachy hair look – and just in case (or actually just in case my travel companion does) – It’s a blend of salt water, Aloe Vera extract and oils of Orchid and Tahitian Gardenia. This works best if you spray on damp or dry hair from roots to tips and comb through.
Living Proof No Frizz Styling Spray ($24, Sephora.com)
This stuff is a godsend for me – I spray a little on my roots before a blowout and my hair – as promised – has no frizz! Being I will be in the frizz capital of the world, this is an especially awesome thing.
Moroccanoil Gold Glimmer Shine ($21, Amazon.com)
One of these days, I’m going to do a post just on ALL the fabulous Moroccanoil products – cause they all pretty much are the most amazing products ever. This particular one will be a godsend in the Mexican environ -it adds a fabulous layer of shine, infused with Argan oil and UV filters – which will also protect against the elements! If only my skin could be so lucky.
