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!

I love to float in the nearby reservoir & go out on the boat!
I love waking my dog in the early morning when it’s not *too* hot and swimming in the afternoon. The water is great with these high temps!!
My favorite thing to do outside is anything by the water! I love swimming, and I want to try surfing and stand up paddle boarding. I just have to get closer to the beach or a water park to try surfing!
I’m really loving going to the dog park with our 5 month old Vizsla puppy!
Bike riding at the park with my kids!
Love going to local festivals and of course taking our dog, Rocky for long walks around the lake(Green Lake in Seattle, WA)!
Well, since we recently moved to Honolulu, going to the beach is my favoritest of all favorite outside summer activities. I’m also blonde, and would love to test out the highlight activating mist since I don’t want to spend the money or upkeep time on highlighting my hair (though I’m sure it would look much better with some professional attention).
The heat gets pretty intense in TX so I love to lounge at the pool with a good book!
I love paddleboarding!!
Paddle boarding early in the morning! So calm and starts the day off right!!
Love going to the beach with my family! Fun in the sun!,
Outdoor movie nights!
Early morning workouts, patio with drinks and friends, and listening to live music outdoors!
Favorite thing to do in the summer? Go to our lake house, swim with my two young daughters and spend the afternoon throwing a buoy off the dock for our dog to retrieve! It’s a mini vacation every time we are there!
I love just being at the lake, whether on a boat or floating in the water, or reading on the beach!
Golfing has been a new, fun outdoor summer activity for me and my hubby!
Summer 2015 has been full of days on the boat at Party Cove! It has been a blast since the heat index in Nashville has been 100+!!!!
I love spending summer days in Newport, RI! There’s so much to do there- walking on the beach, shopping downtown, enjoying a cocktail/bite to eat, checking out the mansions, etc. My love for that town is neverending!
My favorite thing to do is hike! I don’t like to do it at home on the East Coast, but I love to do it out west with my family on vacation 🙂
walks in the morning and hanging out in the yard with my girls playing in their paddling pool. Love being on Maternity leave in the summer!
My favorite thing to do is sit by the river with a good book…and then cool myself off in the refreshing water.
I looooove spending time at the lake during the summer! I’m extra happy that we’re moving to a new house at the end of the month in a lake community! Let the lake life commence!
Going on long weekend walks with my mom!
Grilling on the back porch with my boyfriend. We just moved in together 🙂
I love being at the cottage with my family! I am usually the last person out of the water…I could swim all day! We paddle board, kayak, jet ski, and make awesome memories:)
Read! A book by the pool or beach is so much better!
I love spending time outside taking walks with my family and browsing the local Farmer’s Markets!
I love going boating! We do not live near a big lake, but this weekend we are taking a boating trip!
I live anything in the water. Swimming and kayaking are my ultimate favorites. I have a trip planned in September for a lake in Maine and I can’t wait!
I love picnics is the park!
I love going to summer farmer’s markets!
This summer I have really enjoyed working in my yard with my husband!
I love this giveaway! I’m a huge fan of OGX, but I haven’t been brave enough to venture out to their other products (only shampoo and conditioner). I have absolutely been LOVING running or any kind of workout outside this summer! I just love being outside… and that coming from a Florida girl!! 100 degree weather!! 🙂
I’m lucky enough to have a huge lake just up the road from my house. Walks to the lake and swimming with my dog are the best! Followed by a creemee of course!
Definitely hanging out at the lake with friends!

I love anything that involves being in the water and eating Popsicles!
My favorite thing to do is play tennis outside!
Sit on the beach with my hub and our 3 boys. 🙂
I love anything having to do with water. I don’t know anyone with a boat, so I generally float the rivers around where I live with friends.
I love to have a cook out with friends and just hangggg out! Nothing too crazy, but so relaxing.
I love to BBQ! Taking a couple dips in the pool while grilling is pretty great too. =)
Being on the lake!
My favorite thing to do in the summer is hike after work to watch the sunset. Also, drinking lemonade in the sunshine and just all-around enjoying life! 🙂
I love hanging out with family any chance I get… sitting on our screened porch with a good book is a close second! What a fun giveaway!
I love sitting outside in the evening, just relaxing and having some drinks.
My favorite things to do this summer are go on walks with my little one, go to the park, and go swimming! All fun ways to spend quality time together that don’t cost a dime!
My favorite summer activity is going to the beach. This hasn’t happened yet this summer due to a new baby but hopefully by the end when she is a little older!
Riding bikes along the lake!
I love sitting outside and enjoying the summer air in the evenings with my fiance, dogs, and a glass of wine!
