Incredible summer tips for your skin and hair? We got it covered.

Summer means either you are inside an air-conditioned room most of the time or you are spending your days outside enjoying the summer heat. Either way, it is both harmful for your skin and your hair!

Hot and humid weather and constant exposure to AC air can take the moisture out of the air resulting in dry skin, dry hair, dry throat, and dry nostrils, as well.

Given this predicament, you have to pick the right skincare and haircare products to combat the drying effects.

Use sunscreen like Neutrogena’s Hydro Boost Gel Moisturizing Sunscreen.

 

 

It’s in gel form so your skin absorbs it instantly and without the icky feeling that something is on your face, not to mention it is a moisturizer and a sunscreen in one! It can quench skin with vital hydration for up to 8 hours.

 

 

 

Supergoop Mint Condition Lip Shield with SPF 30 will protect your lips all day, is water-resistant and can restore dry and dehydrated lips.

Incredible summer tips would not be complete without a lip balm with SPF.

The dry and hot weather could make your lips chaffed and, once exposed to the sun, it will also darken. It’s not just your skin and hair that require caring.  Your lips do, too.

It is made from powerful antioxidants such as rich coconut, avocado, and grape seed oil. Give the nourishment your lips deserve!

Get this Mario Badescu Facial Spray with Rosewater & Facial Spray with Green Tea Duo.

 

 

It tones, hydrates and moisturizes skin with Nutrient-rich Botanicals. It is packed with antioxidants which soothe and hydrates skin. Take this with you at the beach because it is perfect for a dry environment. Give your self a quick spritz an instantly refreshing feeling.

 

 

For lavish locks, get this GARNIER WHOLE BLENDS NOURISHING MASK.

It only takes 1-minute to nurture your summer-weathered locks–fast.

It is a mixture of rich oils that’s best for your hair including shea butter, olive fruit oil, avocado oil, and rosemary leaf extract, which will bring back all your hair’s nourishment.

Speaking about masks, here’s a hydrating sheet mask to give your skin a water boost!

The Simple Hydrating Sheet Mask helps fight the 5 signs of dehydrated skin: dryness, dullness, lines, tightness, and roughness. 

Aveeno Ultra-Calming Hydrating Cleanser is one of the best cleansers for summer. It addresses dry skin and doesn’t over-dry skin after washing.  Instead, it nourishes it.

Take cold showers.

We all love warm showers but during summer after a long day of sun exposure, it’s best to take cold showers. Hot showers will further dry skin and hair. Colder showers also help to keep skin clear and decrease acne breakouts.

Hydrate regularly.

Sunbathing is fun.  Going to the beach and playing sports during summer is a whole lot of fun. In fact, you were having so much fun you might forget to hydrate.  Remember to drink lots of water.

What happens when you get dehydrated? You could have a heat stroke.

Dehydration is life-threatening and, for your sake, here are the symptoms you should watch out for when you experience this or someone you know experiences dehydration. You should call 911 immediately when these signs are present:

  • Absence of Sweating
  • Pulsating Headache
  • Hot, Red, Dry Skin
  • High Body Temperature
  • Nausea or Vomiting
  • Rapid Pulse
  • Confusion
  • Loss of Consciousness

Wear a wide-brim hat.

Wide-brim hats give full protection from sunlight.

A visor or baseball cap will not give the same protection that a wide brim hat does. Plus, it looks absolutely fabulous!  Try this top-rated wide-brim hat from Amazon:
