Summer Essentials and Fun Guide (part 1)

Summer is here and sizzling away. I have compiled a list of several items I feel are essentials for the summer! Everything listed I have used, loved and highly recommend! So whether you are looking for toys, games, electronics, food, sunscreen or fashion…I’ve got you covered! Enjoy 🙂

Schick Razors and Shaving Creams: It’s time for shorts, swim suits and summer dresses…which means razors and shaving cream are a daily necessity. Schick has you covered with a variety of razors and shaving cream for both men and women. I love how the Schick Intuition comes fully equipped to shave, lather and moisturize. I personally use the Schick Intuition  razor daily.

Cool Gear Deluxe Salad Kit and Bento Box: Ok I am so excited to tell you about these AWESOME on the go containers by Cool Gear. First is the Deluxe Collapsible Salad Kit, it has a non-toxic gel filled freezer tray that keeps my salad cold & fresh. Even cooler it has this super neat expandable bowl that you push out to make room for your salad and then compresses back inside for easy storage. Seriously this is the coolest feature ever. Then there is the dressing container with leak proof cap nests neatly into freezer tray. I love everything about this Deluxe Salad Kit I pack it with me for work nearly every single day.

Next is the expandable freezer tray (bento box). Another really amazing product by Cool Gear. Again this is a product we use nearly every single day to pack my kids lunches for gymnastics camp. I love how it has the perfect sized containers that perfectly fit into the freezer tray to keep food cold. I typically pack my kids fruits, veggies and/or dip in these containers. The bottom piece is expandable, which means when it is pressed in for storage it creates the perfect housing for the above mentioned freezer tray and containers. However when it is pushed out or “expanded” it fits a sandwich perfectly. Keeping your sandwich safe from being squished and fresh for hours.

Hapari Swimwear: Hapari has the largest selection of women’s suits ranging from tankini’s, one-pieces, two pieces, plus size, maternity wear, mastectomy suits, men’s wear and kids wear.  Hapari provides high quality swimwear at a fabulous price. No matter what your budget or style, Hapari has your needs covered! I was able to try out a few pieces from Hapari and can vouch for the awesome quality. I am not in a place in my life where I want to wear a bikini. With four kids (6 pregnancies) I have been looking for a fun, modern, fashionable bathing suit, and Hapari hooked me up. I was able to get an adorable Swim Dress top with bikini bottoms as well as an adorable once piece. I was surprised once I received my swimsuits how much I actually liked them on MY body. I highly recommend checking out Hapari Swimwear you will love their selection and prices!

Magic Dessert Bullet: The Dessert Bullet is my new favorite summer appliance! It is amazing. As it can make all sorts of tasty dessert treats perfect for you and any dietary needs you may have. The Dessert Bullet can make frozen treats that are healthy and delicious while also being dairy free, gluten free, vegan, fat free or whatever special need you may have. The best part is you get all that in just minutes and from the comfort of your own home. Indulge yourself (and friends, neighbors, kids) with a tasty Strawberry Peach sorbet, or a Chocolate Espresso Gelato.

Banana Boat and Hawaiian Tropics Sunscreen: As you well know, protecting your skin in the sun is extremely important. With summer comes lots of outside play, pool time, camping and just overall sun exposure. Banana Boat has a large selection of sunscreen products perfect for whatever your need may be. From babies, men, women, teens….from outside sports play, pool time or even just tanning Banana Boat has you covered.

Nature’s Own Bread: Bagels, English Muffins, sandwiches, hamburger or hot dog buns…Nature’s Own Bread has it all. I was fortunate enough to try out Nature’s Own Bread products. I will be totally honest it was my first time trying out their breads and I was very impressed. We all loved the soft-moist buns while barbecuing hamburgers and hot dogs outside. We also all fought over the amazing cinnamon raisin bagels…OMG amazing!
