8 Honeymoon Essentials for a Hot Destination

You’ve had your dream wedding and you’re now ready to take the leap into the next stage of your life. Before you settle down completely in your marital home, why not prolong your normal nine to five routine with a hot romantic holiday in the sun. Before you rush off to the airport, here are eight honeymoon essentials for a great time away.

SPF foundation

Stay cool and protected by the pool while still looking your best with a quality SPF foundation. Due to the need for better sun protection, you can now pick up a foundation, in either powder or liquid form, with a higher SPF level than previous versions on the market. Try Brighter by Nature SPF 30 skin tone correcting makeup from Origins which corrects, protects and perfects the skin.

A colourful maxi dress

Every girl should have a few maxi dresses in their wardrobes like this colourful Little Mistress dress from ASOS for £67. These versatile fashionable garments look great from morning until night. They help to protect your skin from the scorching midday sun and the long flowing material also picks up even the slightest of breezes to keep you cool and calm.

Sun hat

One area which we all forget when applying sun protection is our scalps. Keep the burns and peeling at bay on your honeymoon with an elegant sun hat like this black and rust floppy summer hat from Dorothy Perkins for only £12. Throw on your maxi dress and you’ll be ready to hit the town!

Weather resistant hairspray

If you prefer your hair to be left uncovered during the holiday, keep your tresses in place and protected come rain or shine with a weather resistant hairspray like this Ultimate Strong Hold Weather Resistant Hairspray from AlbertoVO5. This product has an inbuilt UV filter to protect the hair again sun damage as well as weather protection which prevents frizz for up to 24 hours. 

Summer bikini

We all love a summer bikini, especially if we have been busy exercising and dieting to get ready for the beach. Whether you are into daring neon, on-trend stripes, girly patterns or all over colour, this year’s best lines will have a bikini for you. Look your best on the beach without breaking the bank with this New Look halter neck tropical bikini for £20.

Retro swimsuit

For those of you looking for a more flattering demure look in the sun, try a retro style swimsuit to make the most of your beautiful curves. There are plenty of affordable options currently on the market in styles and patterns to suit all – pardon the pun! Try this well crafted flowery Motel swimsuit from ASOS for £35.

Waterproof disposable camera

It isn’t just clothes which you need to worry about. To ensure your travels will be well documented without the hassle of worrying about expensive equipment, purchase a waterproof disposable camera like a Kodak sport single use camera, and develop the snaps when you return home.

Shoes!

Finding a pair of holiday shoes to suit any occasion can be a difficult task for any holiday maker. Banish heel discomfort with a pair of comfortable wooden wedges like these Warlock Wooden Wedges from Topshop for £55 for the hotel and dining out.
