20 Must-Have Summer Beauty Essentials You Need In 2025

The first product I recommend you add to your beauty essentials. This product can be certainly used on your hair and body, but since we wear the hijab when we're out, why not use it as a hijab mist. This product comes in many different scents, but this one I love most! It's sweet but still very mature and spicy.

Lightweight, easy to apply and gives you the perfect glow. What more does one want in the summer. Most of the time (if you're one that likes the sun), you end up with a natural glow anyway, so wearing any makeup at all isn't necessary.

I have many face mists I use. And most I love! This Caudalie beauty elixir is a more luxurious, almost spa like version of any of the mists I use. It gives you an instant refresh, hydrating and smells like a spa in a bottle. Highly recommend after a long day at the beach and wanting to just settle into zen.

Glow is all you need all year round. Summer or not. This glow isn't only aesthetically pleasing to add to your vanity, but also gives you a beautiful glow. Definitely a product you want to add to your summer beauty essentials.

Makeup Forever. Anywhere Caffeine. The important information you actually need. Literally the perfect nude shade if you have a more olive-tanned complexion. A bride actually introduced me to this shade, and I still can't get over it.

Came across this product recently and am intrigued with the formula. This mascara doesn't only work as makeup but also skincare. It coats your lashes beautifully while promoting healthy lashes. Also the sleek design is a must, always. 

Cream products generally are you beauty essentials best friend. They're light, buildable and feel so beautiful on the skin. They can also be applied to various areas on the face including your eyes, lips and of course cheeks. This colour also is the perfect rosey shade to compliment your sun-kissed skin.

I don't need to explain a bronzer do I? I know some people love it, others don't use it too much. Beautiful thing about the Gucci bronzer is the tone isn't too warm to only work as a bronzer, nor is it too cool to work as a blush. As Huda Beauty calls it, it works as a 'blonzer'. The best of both worlds, wrapped in one adorable little product.

If I was to pick one small, compact eyeshadow palette, it would be this Tom Ford one. The tones are beautiful and very elegant. They also work for day or night. Personally, I like to use the gucci bronzer above for soft eyeshadow looks, but this palette is perfect for that extra glam when you're all dressed and going out somewhere fun.

We love a little moisturiser. Or a lot. But I love nothing more than an extra hydrating with the benefits of glowy skin moisturiser. This product tops the list, mainly because this brand is top tier. And this product is unlike any other. A summer beauty essential for sure.

After applying makeup, please make sure you remove it at the end of the day. This Elemis cleansing balm is so gentle on the skin and removes almost all of your makeup. I would use the Bioderma miscellar water after cleansing with a cotton pad just to remove any left over excess product.

Best part about beauty is the self care part. Where you actually put in the effort to ensure your skin is divine, so your makeup looks divine. This Medicube collagen overnight mask is just what you need to treat yourself after a busy week and need that extra hydration. 

Another overnight face mask that TikTok has hyped. But for very good reason. So hydrating, keeps your skin nice and plump and feels good! Apply it on your face and let it work its charm overnight. You'll wake up feeling like another woman. 

I'm not even sorry with the amount of times I've recommended this product. I'm not even sponsored by them, but this product is INSANE! The brand in general is perfection, but this tops them all. It's literally a 3-in-1. Works as a face mist, glow serum and moisturiser.

I remember the first time I used this product while I was still working at Sephora. It changed my entire perception on the brand. I went from not really caring to investing a lot of time, research and money in their products. So good, you need to try for yourself.

If you know the benefits of AHA's, you'll be on to them before I am. Great f or resurfacing the skin, minimising the look or large pores and replenishing your skin to look it's absolute best. It's like getting a facial without the service.

I know this is a random one, but I love a GOOD deodorant. One that isn't drying, leaves white stains or smells fruity. This entire range comes in sweet, spicy scents. And by spicy I mean almost like a fragrance, not actual spices (ew). You can also find these at any local woolies.
