Summer Beauty Must Have's: 5 AVON Products You Can't Live Without

Ladies the time is upon us, summer has officially arrived and it is time to break out the strappy sandals and flip-flops and enjoy the heat in style! Here are five beauty must have's that will get you through those hot days on the beach and ready for those steamy nights on the town. Best of all, there is no need for an all day shopping trip in the blistering heat for you to find exactly what you are looking for because all of these products are made by one company, AVON.

• SuperSHOCK Waterproof Mascara: This mascara is amazing for two reasons. Not only will it stay on your lashes and not end up causing a bad case of "raccoon eyes" while you spend your days poolside or hanging at the beach, but it will give your lashes length and volume that you could never imagine without all the clumps that some other brands are famous for. Keep it simple with black, or mix it up with brown or navy. A great steal ladies for only $8.50!

• Nail Experts Neat Nail Enamel Corrector Pen: This is such an amazing product, by far one of my personal favorites! Perfect for all of us who try to match our nail colors with the ever changing colors of our fashion, this little pen corrects mistakes and cleans up the edges of your freshly painted fingers and toes with one quick motion! Sure beats using Q-tips for the inevitable touch ups, it helps give a professional look without the prices of a professional manicure or pedicure. The amazing price, just $6.00!

• GlazeWear Lip Gloss: This lip gloss is great because it gives the lips a nice natural bit of summer color with a long lasting shine (or shimmer depending on the color you choose) that isn't heavy or sticky. It is a definite must have for any woman's purse! It comes in many colors and sheens, so you will be sure to find a favorite fast and the price is great at only $6.00 each. My favorite, the Dazzling Diamond and the Darling Pink!

• Advance Techniques Frizz Control Lotus Shield: This product is brand new, in fact it is just about to hit the market, and boy does it work! I had a few sample packets, took them with me to a day at the beach and was convinced in this product as soon as I caught a glimpse of my reflection in a store window after six hours of laying out on the sand. To my amazement, my semi-curly locks had remained frizz free, which with all that humidity was a true test to the product's worth. Can't beat it at just $12.00 a bottle, and trust me ladies a little of this stuff goes a long way!

• Skin So Soft Bug Guard Plus: A final must have product, this will fight off the annoying summer bugs and the UV rays at the same time. It comes in many forms; lotion, aerosol spray, towelettes etc. but one thing is for sure, this product can be your best friend. With it's SPF 30 it will help keep away the summer burns and peels, and fight off the pesky bug bites that come along with summer fun. My favorite part is that the product works, great actually, and it doesn't have a strong odor or scent like most bug deterrents do. Prices vary with the product forms, but range from around $14 to $16 when not on sale.
