The essentials for a great summer
In summer, there are 2 categories of suitcases: the very light ones and those that contain the whole house!
One thing is certain, there are a few essential elements and Aqua By has prepared a small selection for you which is based around these 3 words: protection, aesthetics and practicality.
Sunscreen
- For sensitive skin, no gifts, we bet on a maximum index with the Avène brand which meets all the necessary criteria to protect your skin. The essential element in all circumstances? The Reflexe Solaire! A very small container protection 50 for the tip of the nose, ears and forehead, easy to carry whatever the occasion. Because the sun also attacks you on the terrace of this small seafront restaurant that you have just chosen!
Discover the Avène range
- For dark and tanned skin, the Soleil Noir range is ideal, you can choose between creams and oils according to your preferences. But be careful, always use products with protection, even if your skin is dark, the sun will still make it age more quickly.

The beach towel
This year, we opt for the Tunisian fouta. Originally used for the hammam, it has become multi-purpose and is notably becoming the fashionable beach towel.
Soft and discreet, its pastel colors make it a fashion accessory in its own right.
Plus, it will take up almost no space in your suitcase and is very light (and when you're flying, this detail is important!)
For the feet
Without hesitation: the timeless espadrille! Originally from the Pyrenees, she has found shoes that fit her feet throughout the different regions of France.
Classic or personalized, the espadrille will take up little space in your suitcase but will not leave your look in Paris.

Glasses and hat
Even with sunscreen, when you're sunbathing under a blazing sun, you shouldn't skimp on protection. So don't forget your hat and sunglasses!
It's all a matter of taste and the shape of your head, from the traditional straw hat to the cap or even more eccentric models, the choice is yours.
For glasses, there is only one requirement: good UV protection.
While looks are everything for this accessory, you don't want to burn your retina with the sun's reflection on your white sand beach.
For those on a budget who are hungry for something new: The glasses factory !
The beach bag
Little tip: leave your Michael Kors at home, it will thank you, because sand is not its best friend!

The swimsuit
It's a personal matter, and it all depends on your tastes and your silhouettes.
