    Most Coveted is a shopping series sharing our editors’ curation of the must-know items they can’t stop thinking about.

    With Memorial Day in the rearview mirror, it's full steam ahead on summer shopping and vacation planning. I, for one, have decided to take it easy on the travel this season, but that doesn't mean I can't curate a perfect packing list for you. If you're anything like me, vacations are typically to a coastal destination with a large body of water steps away from the hotel—the types of places fit for flowing dresses, straw hats, and fisherman flats. The beauty products I like to pack are all about hydration, exfoliation, and sun protection. All of these and more can be shopped out below.
