Depending on what part of the country you live in, the summer can
be brutal on your delicate skin, especially the skin on your face. While
everyone should use
sunscreen to block the sun's damaging UV rays on
their entire body, we're going to focus on your face.
Check out these
skin care secrets that will help you maintain your youthful and glowing
skin this summer.
1. Make your own skin
refreshing mist.
You can also buy refreshing mist from your local
retailer, but those are often filled with parabens and other yucky
chemicals. A skin refreshing mist can be used to rehydrate and freshen
your makeup or to give you a reprieve on a hot and humid day.
Aloe Hydrating Mist
Ingredients:
1/3 cup distilled water
2 teaspoons aloe vera
1 tsp witch hazel
4 oz spray bottle
Directions:
Pour all ingredients into your spray bottle and shake well. Mist away!
2. Wear Oversized Sunglasses Often
Oversized shades are not only fashionable, but they block the sun from your
delicate under eye area to prevent Crow's Feet. Double duty!
3. Change Your Pillow Case
All
the moisturizers, makeup and hair products create build up on a pillow
in a short amount of time. This can cause breakouts and acne. Do
yourself a favor and keep a fresh stack of
pillowcases under your bed
or nearby for easy access!
4. Green Tea Ice Cubes For Under Eye Bags
Had
a wild or stressful night or didn't get much sleep? Boil some green tea
and put it an ice tray and let it freeze. The green tea and ice combo
is naturally anti-inflammatory and will also help brighten dark circles.

ReplyDeleteThanks Sylvia, I'll check it out.
ReplyDeleteGreat point about the sunglasses. I do a lot to protect my eyes, beacause I think they tell my age. But, I never thought about sunglasses to protect them. Good tip!
ReplyDeleteYep, that's why I'm always wearing sunglasses.
