"Don�t forget metallics," says Jennings. He suggests adding gold tones like MAC Eye Shadow in Amber Lights or Goldmine, $14 to your stash, which will look great worn for a night out or at one of the (many) summer weddings you�ll attend. You can even try blending them with bold shadow colors (like the aforementioned purple). Apply the bright color from lash lines to creases and top the color with the metallic shadow, blending it well with a soft shadow brush.

BUY: UV Hair Protector
Protect your hair from the stresses of more sun, pool and beach time with a hair product containing UV shielding ingredients (try the sulfate-free, lightweight L'Oreal Paris EverPure UV Protection Spray, $8.99). Mist it from roots to ends on dry or wet hair before and during your pool or beach time.
