A few weeks ago, regular readers may remember me briefly mentioning my love for OGX Beauty’s lemon highlight activating mist in a past Things I’m Loving Friday post. I fell in love with the natural highlighting spray right at the end of spring and use it in my hair nearly every time we head out on the lake!
It’s simple to apply – just spritz in your hair and go – and I truly do feel like it has helped lighten up my naturally blonde hair a bit!
I’ve been toying with the idea of visiting a salon to have my hair professionally lightened up for years, but I am always apprehensive because I’ve had so many people tell me how hard it is to return to your hair to its natural blonde hair shade should you ever decide to stop coloring your hair. I’m sure I’ll muster up the courage to lighten things up a bit eventually, but until then, I’m definitely enjoying way the sun is lightening my hair up this summer and truly believe this lemon highlight activating mist is increasing the amount of sunkissed highlights I’m seeing in my hair this year! (I promise I’m not just seeing things! Ryan said he can see a difference and this spray has great reviews on Ulta.com and Amazon.com!)
Aside from the obvious highlight benefit, I also love the bright citrus scent (thanks to the key lime extract and sweet citrus oil) and the way the spray makes my hair feel so soft (thanks to ultra hair-hydrating coconut oil)!
The spray doesn’t rely on peroxide or any form of hair colorant or dye to give you your highlights (highlights come from the lemon oil!), so it’s not harsh on your hair but actually nourishes your locks while lightening them which I absolutely love. (A quick note: I probably wouldn’t use the mist every day because it can make my hair look a little greasy which I typically don’t mind because I just use it when I’m going to be outside sweating and playing around by the water anyway. Great for beach or lake days!)
Okay, now that I’ve dedicated a little too much time to professing my love for this highlighting spray, it’s giveaway time!

My favorite thing to do in the summer is to curl up on the beach with a good book!
My favorite summer pastime is early Saturday walks on the dog park trails with my Sadie dog!
Usually it would be going to the beach or pool but that’s proven to be a bit difficult with a new baby (2 months today!). So my long morning walks with him are easily the best part now;) congratulations on your baby…it’s truly the most amazing thing ever!!!
i love Biking the trails!
I love going on walks after dinner with friends and being outside as much as possible!
Riding my bike at sunset after dinner
Hiking — particularly if there’s a river you can jump in at the end of it!
My favorite thing was running on the beach while on vacation. I also love doing yoga outside in the early morning before it gets too hot. Working out outside puts a little pep in my step! Haha.
My favorite thing to do outside is to lay poolside and I am happy to say that it will be happening tomorrow!
Having a few days off and hanging by the pool with my beautiful daughter!
Water fights with my kids!
I love to go hiking in Big Cottonwood Canyon in Utah.
My in-laws have land where my father-in-law built a lake (yes, he built a lake!) and my favorite thing to do during summer is to go out there with my husband and daughter and relax. We fish, ride four wheelers, and eat lots and lots of freshly caught fish!
love taking walks at the park with my fiance and my cat! yes, we are those crazy cat people who leash up their cat and take them on walks 🙂
I love running and laying on the beach 🙂 That’s what summer is for!

My favorite thing to do this summer is run! I’m currently training for my first marathon and am glad to do it the nice weather 🙂
My hubby and I LOVE riding our Harleys (me Softtail Deluxe, him Ultra Classic)! When it’s >100 degrees out, we take lots of water stops, and try to go somewhere cooler! Temps the past three years riding to Sturgis, SD in early Aufust as we left Texas…. 2014 – 72, 2013 – 108, 2012 – 115! Curious to see what this year has in store! Love summer!!!
Our favourite thing to do is to go up to this lake up in the mountains with the paddle boards, kayaks, and baby and relax the day away!
We recently purchased a swingset for our three kids! It’s everyone’s favorite thing to do! Sometimes I think I’m having more fun than my kids when we’re playing on it 🙂
My NEW favorite summer thing is paddle boarding! My husband and I tried it over July 4th and are in love. I can’t wait to try it again!
Btw- as someone who logs 3 hours at the hair salon every 8 – 10 weeks, once you go blonde, you never go back!
my favorite thing to do outside is RUN! I obviously cant run right now (im right behind ya in the preggo line at 35 weeks tomorrow) but I absolutely love running outside in the cold, rain, shine, heat, you name it!
Road races! And picnics 🙂
I love doing anything outside in the summer! Walks, hanging out at the lake, or going on a run. Just having sunshine makes any activity better 🙂
