COLOR WOW Dream Coat Supernatural Treatment Spray for Frizzy Hair
'My favourite anti-frizz product, hands down, is the ColorWow Dream Coat. I've sworn by this product for years! It has traveled with me everywhere in my kit—from beauty campaigns on set in India to weddings in Mexico. It combats humidity by coating the hair in a safe, protective layer that prevents moisture from getting in and ruining your heat style, all while delivering a blinding shine. I also love that it's a treatment product that lasts up to three shampoos and helps your hair dry faster, reducing heat exposure in the long run. There's also a variety of regular, extra strength and naturally curly versions so that everyone can have a perfect mane in the summer heat. She's truly unlike any other!' $39 on Amazon $39 at Sephora

Wella Professionals Ultimate Smooth Miracle Oil Serum
'I've been using Wella's Ultimate Smooth Miracle Hair Oil Serum, and it's completely transformed how my hair handles heat, humidity, and styling. It gives me that silky, glossy finish without weighing my hair down—just smooth, touchable strands that actually stay in place. What makes it stand out? It delivers up to 96 hours of frizz control, even in humid weather—and it has built-in UV and heat protection, so I feel confident air-drying or heat-styling without worrying about damage or dullness. Whether I wear my hair natural, styled sleek, or even in a slicked-back bun, this oil serum leaves it looking polished, healthy, and super soft. I pair it with Wella's Ultimate Smooth Shampoo, Conditioner, and Mask for a complete frizz-fighting routine that lasts. It's my go-to for sleek, smooth, sun-proof summer hair!' $35 on Amazon

It creates an anti-frizz shield around each strand of hair that repels humidity and leaves a sleek polished finish. You have to activate with heat, but I find my blowouts last so much longer when I use this spray. It's also a fabulous dupe for the viral Color Wow Dream Coat that Kim K swears by. If you want sleek, glassy hair without the celebrity price tag, this is it!' $13.36 on Amazon $15.49 at Shoppers Drug Mart

Summer scent layering: Scrubs, oils, lotions & fragrances to try
The Curator independently decides what topics and products we feature. When you purchase an item through our links, we may earn a commission. Promotions and products are subject to availability and retailer terms. When summer rolls around, your beauty routine doesn't need to be complex—but it should be scented. The key? Layering. Think silky scrubs, nourishing body butters, radiant oils and light (but long-lasting) perfumes that leave a trail as warm as the weather. Done right, scent layering creates a custom fragrance story that lasts all day, and leaves you feeling like literal sunshine. Whether you're into creamy florals, sparkling citrus, or sultry musks, this guide is your ticket to smelling divine this season. Dove pH Balanced Body Scrub in Himalayan Salt & Rose Oil This gentle, creamy scrub buffs away dull skin while leaving behind a delicate floral scent. Himalayan pink salt smooths and exfoliates, while rose oil locks in moisture. It's luxe on the skin and totally budget-friendly. Start your scent routine here and your skin will drink up everything that follows. $11.46 on Amazon Story continues below advertisement Josie Maran Whipped Argan Oil Body Butter in Golden Hour A firming, refillable body butter that melts into skin with notes of warm amber and soft musk? Yes, please. This cult-favourite from Josie Maran smells like golden hour in a jar—and the whipped argan oil formula leaves your limbs unbelievably soft. It's rich, decadent, and subtly sexy. $49 at Sephora L'Occitane Almond Shimmering Body Oil Say hello to instant vacation glow. This nourishing dry oil smells like sweet almonds and vanilla and leaves a subtle shimmer on the skin. It's never greasy, just golden and glossy in the best way possible. Layer it on top of your lotion for a sun-kissed finish that catches the light (and compliments). $73 at Sephora Dolce&Gabbana Devotion Eau de Parfum Intense If summer had a signature scent, this would be it. With rich notes of candied citrus, orange blossom and creamy vanilla, Devotion is romantic, radiant, and a little bit addictive. One spritz and you're transported to an Italian coastline. Perfumed elegance at its finest. $185 at Sephora Story continues below advertisement You may also like: Maybelline New York Lash Sensational Mascara – $11.28 NIVEA Creme – $12.78 Batiste Dark Dry Shampoo Spray – $13.58 Tree Hut Shea Sugar Scrub in Tropical Mango This golden sugar scrub smells like pistachio and sweet florals (very Sol de Janeiro–adjacent).

It's the perfect reset before lotion, prepping your skin for maximum scent payoff. $25.49 on Amazon Cake Beauty Heavy Cream Intensive Body Balm A Canadian favourite, this whipped body balm is ultra-rich and smells like vanilla cake batter.
