Welcome to Coastalpolitan's Coastal Glow Edit — our definitive summer beauty guide covering everything you need to look and feel your best from the shore to the city. Whether you're refreshing your skincare routine to stand up to the season's heat, building a makeup kit that stays put through the longest summer days, or protecting your hair from sun, salt, and humidity, we've done the work for you. Every product in this edit has been hand-selected by our editors for its performance, ingredients, and that undeniable summer-ready finish. Consider this your all-in-one resource for glowing skin, effortless makeup, and hair that actually behaves — no matter what summer has in store

| SKINCARE

Summer skin deserves serious care. Between the longer days, relentless heat, and extra time spent outdoors, your complexion faces some of its biggest challenges of the year — from excess oil and clogged pores to sun-induced dullness and accelerated signs of aging. This season, we've curated a lineup of editor-approved essentials that cover every step of a results-driven routine, so your skin stays clean, bright, and deeply nourished no matter what summer throws at it.

| Makeup

Summer makeup is all about working smarter, not harder. Heat, humidity, and long sun-soaked days demand a kit that can keep up — products that wear well, photograph beautifully, and actually improve your skin while you have them on. This season's picks strike that balance perfectly, blending skincare-grade ingredients with serious staying power for a complexion that looks effortless from morning golden hour straight through to sunset.

| HAIRCARE

Summer is arguably the harshest season for hair — UV exposure, saltwater, chlorine, and humidity can strip, frizz, and damage even the healthiest strands in a matter of weeks. This edit covers every step of a summer hair routine, from the shower to styling, with formulas built to protect, repair, and restore. Whether your hair is color-treated, heat-styled, or simply in need of some seasonal TLC, these picks will keep it looking and feeling its best all the way through Labor Day.
