Best Desi Girl Summer Picks

Supergoop! Glowscreen : $37.90

This glowscreen is my favorite facial sunscreen because it gives me a subtle, makeup-free glow that truly lasts all day. It packs SPF40 and is surprisingl blendable if you do decide to use it with makeup. Plus, it's the perfect carrying size, and I'm able to take it with me in my everyday clutch or makeup bag with ease.

Ossa Wristlet : $75

I love a little bit of bling, and this unique wristlet attaches to your phone case to turn your phone into a mini carry-on. It’s stylish, easy to attach, and you can shop one of various designs. I personally love the turquoise gemstone wristlet but you can pick any stone you want — there are a bunch to choose from. The designs are made to stand out, so when you place your phone in your jean pocket, you can still see the gems dangling across your hip. As someone who loves to own unique products, this wristlet from Ossa is definitely my pick this summer.

TARINIKA Antique Gold Plated Anuradha Choker Set - $80

The bolder the better — that's my motto when it comes to jewelry, and this Tarinika necklace always gets me tons of compliments when worn out. It’s choker-style and even comes with a pair of earrings. You can shop it in two different shades, and the entire set is gold-plated.
The stones themselves are cubic zirconia, giving them a bright shine almost akin to real diamonds — trust me, no one will know. It’s not too heavy, looks beautiful on, and will pair well with your muted dresses for an added pop of color. Just make sure not to spray your perfume on it or consistently splash it with water to prevent wear and tear.

Tower 28 SOS Daily Rescue Facial Spray - $28

I absolutely hate when the heat gets to my skin, leaving it feeling muddy, red, and irritated. That’s where this facial spray comes in. I carry it wherever I go and a quick spritz is all I need to freshen up. It feels cool on my skin and instantly hydrates and calms irritated skin.
Whether you're acne-prone or have sensitive skin, this pick will support and renew your skin the same.
I use it below and above makeup, and sometimes even use it to prime my skin before a night out. You can use it in the morning or night, and even spray it on your face post-workout if you’re feeling sticky.

Aheli Embroidered Potli Bag - $33.49+

You’ll usually see bags like this at Indian weddings, but why restrict them to grand ceremonies? I own two of these potli bags, and they pair really well with cocktail dresses or even on beach days where all I have is my cover-up and this bag.
It can hold a decent amount, including my phone and card case. And trust me, the embroidery and gem work will be sure to attract a ton of attention. It has a drawstring closure to keep your belongings safe, and each is handmade by local artisans.
