With spring break just around the corner, we can’t wait to get our hands on some of these awesome products so we’re lookin’ beautiful for the beach!
 
Must-have #1: Coral lip gloss: Pucker up chicas, this sweet pink gloss will give you just the right amount of bright springy color without going overboard. And the aborbs floral packaging will totally stand out in your beach bag.

Must-have #2: Lip Balm with SPF: Protect your lips from the sun with this organic SPF 30 lip balm. Feel free to do a cannonball or two into the pool, cuz it’s completely water resistant.
 

Kiss My Face Sport Lip Balm SPF 30, $4, kissmyface.com
 
Must-have #3: Exfoliating body scrub: Gotta scrub off all that wintery dead skin so you’re sleek n’ smooth for the beach! We heart this scrub because a quick whiff of the smell alone instantly transported us to our own private island (if only that was reality and not a daydream!)
 

Bath & Body Works Signature Collection Supercharged Body Scrub in Coconut Lime Breeze, $14, bathandbodyworks.com
 
Must-have #4: A hydrating body butter: After you scrub, moisturizing is key. We love the tropical mango scent of this body butter. A big plus is that it’s made with fair trade ingredients.

Must-have #5: A salty sea spray: Wanna get those effortlessly cool surfer girl waves? Spritz this on your locks and you’ll have a tousled beach bum ‘do in under a minute. Hang ten!

Rimmel London Natural Bronzer in Sun Dance, $5, ulta.com
 
Must-have #7: Waterproof mascara: You can swim underwater without fear of emerging with the much-dreaded raccoon eye.
 

Urban Decay Cannonball Ultra Waterproof Mascara, $20, sephora.com
 
Must-have #8: Nail polish fit for a mermaid: This blue and green shimmery polish will make you feel as though you belong under the sea.
 

Deborah Lippmann Mermaid’s Dream Nail Lacquer, $18, neimanmarcus.com
 
Must-have #9: Oil-free sunscreen stick: Keep your face protected from those harsh tropical rays with this sunblock stick. It’s completely oil-free, so no need to worry about greasiness.
 

Neutrogena Healthy Defense Sunblock Stick, Oil-Free, SPF 30, $8, drugstore.com
 
Must-have #10: Stellar self-tanner: We like this Jergens self-tanner because not only will it give your body a super natural-looking glow, but it also has SPF for when you’re out in the sun!

Hey girl! Light Shimmery Golds will look good on almost anyone and is safe for everyday wear. Also, purples are good for evenings and especially dances.

I despise makeup. I actually wrote a paper on why makeup is unhealthy for young girls. And the weirdest thing about that-my mom really wants me to! It's so odd. She almost dragged me to Claire's to get my ears pierced but I refused. I'm just like that. But I'm falling in love with mango body butter...<3 I should probably stop typing I talk wayyyyy too much.

Join my club, Victorious Lovers!!! It's about the show Victorious and fun facts about it. We talk about almost everything under the sun, and if you have a dilemma, we can help you! But mostly, the club is centered around the Nick show. Please join

MOD!
Okay so please help. I like all this kind of stuff but I need cheap ideas for makeup that are still good. Is there such a thing, and if there are what are they? Thanks so much I love GL!




Hey girlie,

"You get what you pay for" is usually always true when it comes to makeup. The cheapest stuff, aka $1 nail polish or lipstick, usually smells, looks, and lasts like you expect. Try looking for coupons or "Buy One, Get One" sales at your local drugstores. If you have makeup stores like Ulta in your area, they always send out advertisements with coupons in them too! We're not saying to splurge on a $400 bottle of perfume... just that sometimes, you shouldn't totally skimp. I love L'Oreal, Cover Girl, NYX, and Maybelline because they aren't TOO pricey but still great quality! <3
