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!

Hanging out by the pool with a la croix in hand! 🙂
Hiking!
hiking and trail running is probably my favorite, especially early enough where you can watch the sunrise and it’s still a little cool
I love spending time outside swimming in the pool or ocean!! 🙂
I LOVE to play at the park with my two little girls and go out for ice cream afterwards! 🙂
We bought a house with a pool so yes…. I can’t stay out of it!
my favorite thing to do is take william to the splash pad! there is a great one by my house where it’s fenced in so he can splash and play and i stand there and help him and play with him while staying cool in the water and getting color – double win!
My favorite thing to do this summer is take an after dinner walk with my husband. We can leave our children home now and it is time to talk as we walk. Love it!
My favorite summer activity is by far boating! We live in Daytona, so we always have the beach, but I love being on the water! We’re lucky enough to be able to boat just a little bit south to Ponce Inlet, where the ocean and intercostal meet. There’s a great island that disappears during high tide and is quite the hangout on the weekends!
I love getting together with a girlfriend, getting tea from Starbucks and taking a long walk around the lake!
Since I live in Rochester, NY and the summers are short and volatile, my favorite thing to do when it’s gorgeous out is lay by the pool or go for a hike!!
I love having BBQs on my deck!
This summer I am really excited to head to Austin, TX (I have lived in TX my whole life and never been to Austin!) for my bachelorette party. My sisters and I have planned a weekend getaway where we will try out some hiking trails in Zilker Park, as well as kayaking and stand up paddle boarding in Lady Bird Lake! I am super stoked to have a bachelorette party that correlates to my love for the outdoors and being active, and it will be a nice little retreat before our big day in September!
Running is my favourite summertime activity!
Taking my dog to the park or hiking!
My favorite are picnics and hiking. I love the beach, but have to be super careful of the sun. I’m a fair one!
I love swimming with my 2 kids! They love the water and I love watching the little fish they are becoming with all the pool time we have put in this summer!
Swim! Or lay on the beach!
My favorite thing to do in the summer is definitely boating/beach with family & friends!! It is what I look forward to most every summer 🙂
I love to hang out at my parents pool!
My favorite thing to do outside in the summer is relax on the beach and I’ve also been really into biking this year!
I love to lay in the sun & read a book!
Spending time outside – especially on the water!
I was born and raised a Florida girl, but moved out to Texas 2 years ago. The thing I miss the most is definitely the beach! I’m flying home to go on vacation with my family in a few weeks. We’re headed to our favorite vacation spot – Marco Island : ) I love getting to sail, paddleboard, kayak, and just relax to the sound of the ocean.
I love going out on the boat- sunshine & summertime!
Swimming & eating ice cream outside after dinner!
I’m loving sitting outside by the pond and catching up on some good reads with a blanket and snacks (snacks are key!).
I love going to the pool with my 3 year old daughter!
I love hanging at the pool and watching kids swim!!
Golf is one of my favorite summertime activities!
My favorite thing this summer has been helping my husband train for his 2nd marathon! I ride my beach cruiser along side him and cheer him on as the miles tick by. 🙂
Hands down, beach day with my toddler. He loves the ocean and he loves building things in the sand. I grew up on the same beach so it’s cool to see him get to experience the same things I did when I was his age.
I love going to the pool in our apartment complex and relaxing!
I love spending lazy, summer days with a cold drink and good book!
Nothing like a nice morning walk on the beach!

Love being out on my paddle board!!!!
Walking or riding my bike to work now that the weather is so gloriously sunny!!!
Relaxing and cooling off in the pool on a comfortable raft!
I love going on lunchtime walks with my coworkers in downtown Raleigh! We walk a three mile loop around the state capitol and a few parks in the city. It’s beautiful and a great way to take a break from computer screens and cubicles.
I love hiking a mountain at our local state park- my now husband proposed at the top and it overlooks the college campus where we met and fell in love!! So special to us!
Sit poolside with my family and friends, read, BBQ, and enjoy each others company!
What a super fun giveaway!! We have enjoyed kayaking on the river this summer.
Going to the pool with my little one now that he can swim and i recently tried paddleboarding for the first time and am obcessed now!
I love wakeboarding on the lake!!! Anything on the water is the best!!
It has been non-stop rain this summer where I live, but I’m still enjoying having dinner al fresco on our (covered) porch in the evenings!
Hanging by any body of water! Pool, lake, ocean – you name it, I’m there!! Especially if it’s somewhere the dogs can join too 🙂
