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 have naturally blonde hair as well and as I get older it keeps getting gradually darker. I will definitely have to pick this up! As for the summer, I am currently and a Coed kickball league that is a blast! I also love bonfires and days at the lake!
Love to take long walks and hang out at the beach!
Rollerblading )!
What a cute giveaway! I am going to have to remember this combination of fun things to give as gifts.
Outside in the summer = long walks with the dog, cornhole in the backyard and lots of time outside.
As long as I’m outdoors, I’m happy! Hanging out by the pool or walking my dog are my favorites!
I’m totally in your same boat (pun intended) with wanting to have some more natural highlights. I’m a natural blondie too who has never colored her hair so this sounds perfect! Right now, I am looking forward to a few beach trips and hoping to spend a ton of time swimming in the ocean!
My favorite thing to do outside this summer is have backyard BBQs! We have spent the last year fixing up our yard, putting a fence in, and gardening, so we love having friends over and letting all the dogs run around!
My favorite thing about summer is taking the two-man kayak out to the North Shore of Oahu and enjoying the calm, beautiful ocean with my husband.
I’ve been loving summer runs and hikes!
I love summer kayaking!!
Now that I’ve moved to South Carolina, I love spending the summer on the beach!
I love swimming! I am currently 30 weeks pregnant and water is where it is at!
OMG I neeeeeeed every single one of these in my life!! My two favorite summer activities are golfing (ok so I’ve only been once) and relaxing swimming! Oh and hanging out with my BF while he BBQs. And fishing. And laying out. OKOK I love summer 🙂
I recently got into archery – 3d archery shoots are my new fave! And of course sunbathing at the beach!
Love taking my dog for a swim at the beach in the mornings : )
Running before sunrise and then jumping in the pool to cool off!
Reading on a beach! or a deck!
Boating and fishing!
Kayaking in Seattle or Coeur d’Alene, Idaho! We’ve had abnormally hot and beautiful weather this summer!
Swimming and running are my favorite outdoor summer activities!
Running and kayaking.
Play in the river with my son
Being form Illinois, the winters are rough, so really anything outside is fantastic. But if I had to choose a favorite, I’d say hiking!
I have been going on a lot of long walks down various nature trails near me! They are the best!
Hiking!
One of my favorite things to do in the summer is lay by the pool with a good book! I also love boating on the lake. Nothing beats summertime sunshine!
I love walking through the small parks scattered about my city. Seeing families and people walking their dogs is the highlight of my weekend!
The kids and I love spending time in the water {the lake, the pool, or just the splash pad}
I’ve taken up skydiving and it’s my favorite activity all year round.
I love floating the river!!
I love getting out and exploring NC! I get to visit my family back home in WA next month and can’t wait to go for a hike at our cabin!
Living in Wisconsin, I have a ridiculous appreciation for summer! I love anything that involves being around or in water, but I really love taking my black labs for walks through the park. So simple but fun.
Well, because I live in Texas, where we average 100 degrees during the summer, my favorite summer activity is getting away to Colorado for hiking.
Hiking or walking
Hiking! Living in Montana our summer is short so I try to spend as much time in the sunshine in the mountains as possible
I love swimming in the ocean!
I love running along the East River in NYC and having cocktails/vino outside by the water.
I love traveling is my favorite thing to do in the summer since I’m a school teacher.
i love going to the pool. i wish that i could do it more often!
What a fun giveaway! This summer I am absolutely loving reading on the beach while my boyfriend surfs, then getting beers at the local bar afterwards. I just finished Girl on the Train and now I’m on Where’d You Go, Bernadette? I would love to get a hard copy of Big Little Lies!
hanging on the beach all day with family and friends is always my preferred weekend activity!
I love sitting by the fire pit at night!
Nothing says summer like grilling for me!
As a regular thing, probably swimming/playing around in the lake, but every summer setting up the local fireworks show with a group of friends is my all time favorite! Of course, I also love to just read or hang out in the sun/shade on warm summer days!
I love to be outdoors near water as much as possible! Or play tennis.
What a fun giveaway! I love OGX products! I live by the beach so try to get out and enjoy it every chance I get 🙂
My parents just got a boat so I’m loving cruising around on the water on Cape Cod! There’s nothing better than just packing a cooler and spending the whole day out on the water. And after this winter in Boston I’m especially loving any time I can spend outside and be warm! 🙂
I love going on after dinner walks… by that time, it’s cooled down, and watching the sunset is always nice!
I love running and hiking, but it’s also nice to just sit outside and do nothing!
Love to hang out at the pool. And knowing our schedule isn’t as full as it is during the school year.
