Looking good during the summer can be tough when you consider all the obstacles that we face during the warm season – the sun, the heat, the humidity…the list goes on and on. However, there are several ways to overcome these obstacles and achieve the perfect summer look. Let’s take a look at the top five tips on how to look and feel your absolute best while on the beach.
Opt for a lighter makeup to let your skin breathe
Our makeup should change with seasons. Just like you need to protect your skin in winter from cold air and harsh winds, when warm, sunny days arrive, you’ll need to adjust your skincare routine. Since it will be exposed to a lot of sun and heat, add a layer of sunscreen before you put on makeup to ensure your face is protected from UV rays. It’s best to avoid wearing a lot of makeup and only use a couple of products to enhance your natural features and hide imperfections. Use tinted moisturizer and a concealer where you need it. Apply a good waterproof mascara, a sheer lip gloss, and a bronzer, and you’re good to go – flawless, natural summer makeup in less than ten minutes.
Remove unwanted hair for a perfect summer look
If you’re planning on going on a vacation this summer, the last thing you’ll have on your mind is the unwanted hair on your legs, underarms, and bikini area. Shaving, tweezing, and waxing are all good ways to remove hair, but their effect doesn’t last for long. However, there is a certain cosmetic procedure that women in Australia are praising for its efficacy, as well as safety. Due to the hot, dry summers, Australia is known for, many of women from the western part of the country opt for quality laser hair removal in Perth to permanently remove unwanted body hair and achieve a polished, neat look for summer. After undergoing this non-invasive treatment, the skin is soft, free of any hair, allowing you to enjoy your vacation without worrying about unwanted hair.
Use sunscreen to protect your skin from UV rays
Sunscreen plays an important role in any girl’s skincare routine. It helps protect our skin from harmful UV rays, which poses a risk of developing skin cancer. That alone should be enough of a reason never to go to the beach without applying sunscreen, yet so many people forget or don’t even consider putting on sunblock. Sunscreen decreases the development of skin cancer and helps prevent sun spots as well as skin discolouration. Another benefit that comes with wearing sunscreen is that it slows down the development of wrinkles, and helps prevent premature ageing of your skin. Whether you choose to wear a regular sunscreen or a spray-on, you can rest assured your skin is protected, ensuring a healthy and glowy, sun-kissed tan.
Make smart and healthy food choices
Just as winter is reserved for bulky clothing, hearty meals, and comfort soups, summer is all about light makeup, clothes, and food. Coordinate your diet with the warm season by eating seasonal fruits such as watermelons and oranges – they are mostly made up of water, which means they’ll hydrate your skin and give it a healthy look. Nuts and avocados are two summer foods you should definitely add to your grocery shopping list as they contain monosaturated fats which lower bad cholesterol levels and positively affect your heart and overall wellness. As for the vegetables, tomatoes, leafy greens, and zucchini will help replenish vitamins A and C, as well as protect your skin. Whether you prefer them steamed or fresh and raw, these veggies are a smart and healthy food choice for warm, summer days.
Mani & Pedi will make all the difference
Summer is the time when we have the chance to display our hands and feet in all their glory, so it’s important to keep them young and healthy-looking. Manicure and pedicure treatments are excellent ways to complete your summer look and help you appear more attractive and well-groomed. They are much more than just pampering – they help freshen up your skin, ridding it of dead skin cells, and improving the health of your nails. Manicure and pedicure also help increase blood circulation and rejuvenate your skin, keeping it smooth and soft.
There you have it – our top five ways to breeze through the season in top form. Follow the tips above in order to achieve an absolutely stunning, natural summer look and enjoy warm, sunny days with confidence.
