Summer Packing List: Beach Vacation Essentials for Women

Summer Packing List for a Beach Vacation

1. Supergoop! Zincscreen 100% Mineral Lotion SPF 40

First thing’s first: sunscreen! Every summer packing list must have this number one essential. The Supergoop! Zincscreen 100% Mineral Lotion SPF 40 is our choice for protective sunscreen because it effectively absorbs UVB rays and reflects UVA rays. It’s made of mineral particles that are larger in size and safely sit on top of skin to provide much needed protection this summer. It contains winter cherry that protects the skin from the damaging effects of atmospheric pollution and blue light emitted from phones and computer screens. Blueberry helps protect the skin from infrared-induced free radical damage, the primary cause of skin aging. The best part? This product features a blendable zinc oxide formula that not only protects the skin but also provides a brightening pink tint that’s perfect under makeup, giving you a perfect Instagrammable summer look. This clean product is free of sulfates, parablens, mineral oil, and other synthetic products. Shop at Anthropologie.
