Christine

So very true, Zainy!! I never forget the sunscreen when it comes to spending a day at the beach, impossible!
Christine
Saturday, April 19, 2008
Good call, Zainy :)

SPF 9000 and a tshirt. i burn like nobodys business. stupid irish skin :(
Christine
Saturday, April 19, 2008
LOL, 9000! I wish :)
I feel for you! My boyfriend burns pretty quick, too. I’m always checking to make sure he re-applies (OK, I re-apply it for him) throughout the day.
Courtney

LOL that’s sweet of you to be the sunscreen police! you’re only helping him be safe. i tend to miss spots — 2 years ago i missed the backs of my knees and tops of my feet and wound up with 2nd degree sunburn. the backs of my knees are now perpetually a deeper shade than the rest of my legs :( so now just stay out of the sun all together. i kinda dig my pale look!
Christine
Monday, April 21, 2008
Oh no, how awful!! That’s just terrible that you burn so quickly and horribly :(
Winnie
Saturday, April 19, 2008
Sunblock, eyeliner, that’s about it! I spend most of my time in the sea so there isn’t too much point wearing too much make up!
Christine
Saturday, April 19, 2008
Lucky! Where do you live? Must be nice :)
ayat
Saturday, April 19, 2008
Lipgloss, waterproof mascara, kohl, tinted moisturizer with an SPF!
Christine
Saturday, April 19, 2008
Good choices, Ayat! Gotta have the waterproof mascara!
Sal
Saturday, April 19, 2008
lip and cheek stain!
Christine
Saturday, April 19, 2008
What are your choices for stains, Sal? I’ve yet to find any I love!
Sal

Either Benefit’s Benetint or Revlon’s Just Bitten in any of the colours they have. Although the Revlon one is pretty pigmented so it might be a bit much for the fairer babes. And the price for a drugstore brand is a bit of off-putting, but I got it for half off, and it’s really quite good.
Christine
Monday, April 21, 2008
Hm, I wanted Just Bitten, but I couldn’t bring myself to pay full price, lol.
Cish
Saturday, April 19, 2008
probably just lipstick/lipgloss and a blush, i really don’t need a mascara.
I discovered the world of blushes about half a year ago and now can’t live without it! i don’t know what I was thinking before.. :)
Christine
Saturday, April 19, 2008
Hey Cish! Lucky you for not needing mascara! I find that mascara instantly opens up my eyes a bit, lol.
MEG

the beach is my time to take a breather from make up.
I go all natural.
SPF and chap stick is all I wear
Christine
Saturday, April 19, 2008
You go girl! That’s so fab :D
Thalia
Saturday, April 19, 2008
Sunscreen, lipbalm with SPF, concealer, blot powder (my face gets really shiny), and a cheek stain.
Christine
Saturday, April 19, 2008
Good picks, Thalia! :) What concealer is your choice for beachy days?
Rabi
Saturday, April 19, 2008
For beach days, just sunblock and a SPF lipbalm, and some leave-in conditioner for the hair. All that tends to make me a little waxy and shiny, so I leave the makeup at home.
Christine
Monday, April 21, 2008
Nice choices, Rabi! It’s great to see that so many go to the beach with not much beyond SPF!
Carolina
Saturday, April 19, 2008
Going to the beach overrides all my usual beauty routine. No need to worry about my face, when I’m showing my bum and belly. Those are enough worry. lol I just slather myself in sunscreen, lotion SPF for body and a higher SPF cream for the face, and that’s it. The after-beach care is more complex though.
Christine
Monday, April 21, 2008
LOL, you make an excellent point, Carolina :D
What do you do for after-beach care?
Shelby
Saturday, April 19, 2008
Moisturizer, sunscreen, Burt’s Bees, and my aviators. :)
Christine
Monday, April 21, 2008
Love it :D Sounds a lot like me!
lala
Saturday, April 19, 2008
moisturizer, prep& prime spf 50 tendertone lip balm
Christine
Monday, April 21, 2008
Good choices, Lala!
Shefali
Saturday, April 19, 2008
I go with Smashbox – O-Gloss and O-Glow. And, of course, lots of sunscreen!!
Christine
Monday, April 21, 2008
How do you like the O-Glow?
AmyLou
Saturday, April 19, 2008
Honestly, I skip it all except for a good SPF. Maybe curl my eyelashes and that’s about it.
I sweat like there’s no tomorrow, so it’s kind of pointless. My cheeks are ruddy all ready, so no need for blush!
If it was some sort of evening beach event (ie, bonfire or party), I’d probably do my usual makeup, with a little extra bronzer.
Christine
Monday, April 21, 2008
I usually opt for tinted moisturizer or a light foundation, but definitely nothing heavy in case I sweat it off!
Melanie
Saturday, April 19, 2008
Waterproof mascara, Neutrogena SPF 45 and Nars The Multiple in Orgasm or South Beach
Christine
Monday, April 21, 2008
Waterproof mascara, duh! Such an essential ;)
Sanayhs
Saturday, April 19, 2008
Sunscreen. :D
Christine
Monday, April 21, 2008
But of course! You just can’t go to the beach without it!
Erin
Saturday, April 19, 2008
I’ll tell you what I just wore on my trip to Palm Desert- I had a spa treatment and then lay around the pool, that’s about the same thing as the beach!
Major sunscreen, whatever the highest I’ve got is. A dab of select cover wherever needed, probably just undereye and blemishes, powder because sunscreen makes you look SWEATY!
On my eyes I wore Baselight paint with Bountiful Brown liner and a little Paradisco. It stayed even through half an hour in a hammam/steam room!
Christine
Monday, April 21, 2008
Nice, Erin! Isn’t it amazing the power of a GOOD BASE? I wore full makeup to the beach, too, and it all stayed put :D

Saturday, April 19, 2008
Normally I put on just a bit of powder foundation. Just so my skin looks even other than that it’s just sun block.
Christine
Monday, April 21, 2008
I definitely like to use powder, too. It helps make you look less sweaty, too ;D
Tonee
Sunday, April 20, 2008
Sunblock or tinted moisturizer with SPF 30, Clarins under eye cream with SPF30, lip balm with SPF30 and waterproof mascara
Christine
Monday, April 21, 2008
I see a trend: SPF! :)
Kayra
Sunday, April 20, 2008
I always apply a sheer and gilded gloss over my lips and a gold shimmering powder.
Christine
Monday, April 21, 2008
Ohh, very pretty, Kayra! :) I love gold anything!
Lydia
Sunday, April 20, 2008
I try to go barefaced but I can’t live without my mascara!
Christine
Monday, April 21, 2008
lol, mascara can wake a face up so well, though!
Teresa
Sunday, April 20, 2008
I put on my brave face and only wear sunscreen & lipgloss. I figure that any makeup I attempted to put on would melt off in the sun or wash off in the ocean anyway!
Christine
Monday, April 21, 2008
LOL, I love it — your brave face — so cute!
Sonia
Sunday, April 20, 2008
Id go bare faced but take a pair of sunglasses to wear to hide what i feel needs to be covered most which is my dark circles.
Christine
Monday, April 21, 2008
Sunglasses are good at the beach anyway :)
Pia
Monday, April 21, 2008
i’d put on sunscreen/block and do eyebrows and some color lipglass.
Christine
Monday, April 21, 2008
I have to do brows, too!
Marnie
Tuesday, April 22, 2008
The highest SPF I can find (UVA/UVB), Mac Blot to cut out the sunblock shine, a bit of concealer over any red splotches from past pimples (Vichy Dermablend Quick-Fix)… maybe some waterproof eyeliner or mascara… and maybe a wash of colour over the eyes (natural shades). Oh, and BIG sunglasses and a BIG hat! :)
Marnie
Tuesday, April 22, 2008
Forgot to add: SPF for the lips, as well! I really like Shiseido’s spf 36 lip treatment.
Christine
Wednesday, April 23, 2008
Nice choices, Marnie! :D

Hey Christine, I usually wear sunscreen and a bit of waterproof eyeliner and mascara. But I was actually looking for a post on this topic because Im going to Jamaica next month. Id love to to hear what you do makeup wise for a day at the beach! Oh and your hair!! My hair gets so frizzy, and I hate having it in a bun…do you have any suggestions?
Christine
Wednesday, April 23, 2008
To be honest, I wore eyeshadow, blush, normal foundation, etc. and was fine, LOL. I had my hair up in a pony tail, but otherwise I’d put a headband on and go for it. If it’s windy, I usually wear it up because I hateee hair in my eyes!
