9 beach essentials

Here’s all you need to pack before your next trip to the shore!

Sunscreen, obvio

This summer heat is a no-go without some heavy-duty coverage, hence, pick a sunscreen which is high intensity, water / sweat resistant with SPF50 or above.

Sunnies most definitely!

You don’t have to ruin your favorite pair of Prada sunglasses by exposing them to all the sand, sweat and salt water. Instead, opt for a cheaper alternate that’s just as trendy.
