Best Beach Ever!

So... I am debating on if I should even share this with you because it is so amazing! This is the most absolutely amazing beach I have ever been to in my life! It is Emerald Isle NC it is perfect! 
So in my mind it is so perfect because:

  • It is on the beautiful coast of North Carolina (which is where I live, and where I love!)
  • It's name is Emerald ISLE so its on a cute little island (Duh!), at some places o the island you can see the Bogue Sound (yes this is a body of water, and yes this is a real place) and the Atlantic Ocean on the other
  • It is a quite little town so everyone if friendly, and the beaches are never crowded
  • There is a nice little aquarium just up the island a bit
  • The is a little shopping center called Emerald Plantations that includes a movie theater, restaurants, shops, and a river where you can feed Sea Turtles (this is especially fun because there's one that is bigger than my six year old brother! It lives at the bottom and only comes up occasionally though.)
  • The other beaches beside it are close enough to drive up to and take advantages of their restaurants and shops to.

      I personally have never been out of the US sadly, but my parents have been to the Bahamas, and my grandfather to Italy. Since I got my new camera (and new laptop) I haven't been to Emerald Isle, but I have been to a beach close to it on a school trip and would be happy to post them at the first opportunity (the pic above is off of the internet but it is of Emerald Isle). I am also going back in a few months and will post some more then. Thanks for joining and for commenting by the way!

To Do Before Going Down To The Beach

So you are going down to the beach tomorrow, but what are you supposed to do before you go down? So yea I know this seems kind of like a common sense post, but you wouldn't believe how many people skip simple things before going down to the beach, things that can make the whole experience soooo much better! Well the very first thing to do would be to pack your beach bag but i've already made a MUCH more detailed post on that and you can see that at  summertimesweety.blogspot.com/beach-bags 1. So the first thing, picking your bathing suit and cover up There are some bathing suits that look better on some body types than others and even though I plan to have that post up in the future...I don't right now. As for cover ups, I recommend them so you will be able to put something back on if you get to much sun. When I wear a bathing suit I usually wear board shorts over the bottoms anyway, then I put on a cute little dress or cami. Well I really hope that I would...

Homemade Beauty... Natural Toners

Sliced strawberries, grapes, cucumbers, lemons, and tomatoes work wonderfully as  natural toners to tighten skin and shrink pores.   Strawberries make an excellent cleanser, moisturizer, and skin-softener. They are rich in healthy-skin vitamins A & C and have a neutral PH so they are mild. Grapes can reduce wrinkles, even skin tone, moisturize, and reduce the  appearance of scars. The high water content in cucumbers hydrates and cools your skin, and the natural oils in help soften your skin. Lemon juice and water can be used to lighten dark spots on your skin, and reduce shine caused by oil on your face. Tomatoes contain gentle acids which will help to cleanse your skin while removing dead skin cells and clearing black heads. Pick the one you think wold work best for you, slice, and apply directly to your face.  Comment below and let me know your results if you try this out!
