    Default Summer Beauty Tips



    Summer is a great time for relaxation, recreation and renewal. If you're like most of us, you probably take advantage of the longer days and warm weather to enjoy extra time with family and friends. While enjoying the hot, lazy days of summer, keep in mind that different beauty rules apply. Here are a few tips to keep you looking as good as you feel:

    Summer Skincare Tips

    It may be hip to be tanned, and it does tend to camouflage a multitude of imperfections, but don't deep-fry your skin for the sake of fashion. Your best bet is a high quality bronzer in a bottle. The Body Shop has a great all-natural formula. Just remember to use a facial scrub prior to application to slough off any dead skin cells. You may also want to use a pair of gloves, lest your palms turn orange!

    If you spend lots of time outside, be sure to use sunscreen with minimum SPF 15. The cancer-preventing benefits are obvious, but protection is also a must for those of us who don't want to look old before our time.

    Make sure that you are adequately hydrated - at least 8 glasses of water a day and even more when you are outside.

    If you do burn, apply Aloe Vera or lotions containing it. This will cool and soothe your skin and help you to heal faster. A personal trick is to apply cream containing zinc to my face at night. This is an effective way of healing my burn by the morning.

    Nothing is more revolting than skin full of little red mosquito or bug bites, not to mention the new threat of West Nile Virus, so don't forget the bug spray. You may want to try one of the new two-in-one sunscreen and insect repellants.

    For a quick skin boost in the sun, fill a misting bottle with a little bit of toner and water, and spritz your face and body for a quick cool off. Just remember to close your eyes so you don't risk burning them.

    Summer Make-up Tips

    Take on summer with a fresh face forward - less is best! Accentuate your glowing skin by brushing on a light shimmering powder instead of a heavy foundation. You don't want to appear like you are melting under the hot sun.

    Those of you who read my column know that I'm a big advocate of the powder bronzer. This is a great way to give yourself a pretty glow. I like to use a matte finish on my face and then a shimmer powder on my eyelids, above my cheekbones, and on my shoulders and collarbone.

    A hot look on a bronzed face is shiny lip gloss. The BEST is "Lip Glass" by MAC. It gives you ultra shine over lipstick (applied with a brush) or on its own. Plus, it stays put - a big bonus for die-hard lip gloss wearers!

    Try a light shimmering eye shadow in beige just under your brow bone to draw attention to your eyes.

    If you are wear mascara, try a waterproof. This way you will avoid "Raccoon Eyes" when you are perspiring or near water. Don't forget the must-have partner, eye make-up remover, or else you really will end up with the dreaded dark circles!

    6 Beneficial Tips For Summer Skin Care



    1. Never forget to put on the moisturizer - summer is not the time when you will feel a stretched skin, but that doesn't mean that you would forget using your moisturizer. Try and go for water-based moisturizers during this time of the year.

    2. Ways to wear the sunscreen - it is the most important thing especially in summers. Never forget to apply your sunscreen at least 20 minutes before you step out of the house.

    3. Go for sun protective makeup - Try and go for liquid makeup which has which holds SPF. So that you get a more safe and secure skin during the hot hot months.

    4. Opt for sun protective cloths - It will be very helpful for your skin if you opt for light colored and full-sleeve cloths. Because by doing this you can protect yourself form the summer sun and save your skin from getting burnt.

    5. Exfoliation is a must - especially during this time of the year, as summer heat, dust, pollution only give you more and more dead skin cell that is very important t be removed. So exfoliate every alternate day to get yourself a beautiful and glowing skin.

    6. Take good care of your feet - because during summers the feets tend to get dry and cracky. Going for a regular pedicure will be a very good option especially during this time of the year. If you are reluctant to go to a spa, you can also opt for at home pedicure. And very good feet lotion is also must.

    Default How to care your hair during summer?



    Hair Care becomes a worrisome factor for both men and women as the heat of summer increases. The major causes are the unremovable dust, growing dandruff, drying scalp and the heat all over your head. There is no wonder that you may even consider shaving your hair. Conversely, try some of these beauty tips and keep your head and hair cool during summer.

    Dust gets attached to your hair each time you go out. In that case tie a scarf around your hair to protect it.

    A regular head bath will free you from the accumulated dust in your hair.

    Comb your hair whenever possible to remove the dust in your hair as well as to keep it neat.

    The reduction of dust will automatically reduce the dandruff in your hair. However you can apply some herbal oils in your hair and wash it away with some natural shampoos.

    You can rub lemon on your scalp. This will wonderfully reduce the dandruff and automatically cool your head.

    The application of hair oils mixed with amla will naturally reduce the dandruff as well as cool the head.

    The drying scalp will get a rejuvenating experience if you can massage your head with some herbal oils. You have to this head massage only once in a week.

    Avoid using shampoos with high chemical quantity, as they will dry your scalps.

    If you have long hair comb and tie it properly before going to bed.

    You can apply henna mixed with lemon juice and egg once in week. Let this cooling effect stay on your head for one hour and wash it away with cold water.

    Never use warm water to wash your head. At the same time avoid taking head bath in extremely cold water.

    Now, choose the appropriate hair styles for summer and adorn your shining hair with summer colours.

    These were really valuable beauty tips and what I am going to follow is the use of scrub on everyday basis also going to buy a sun screen now, Knowing something and get aroused to it are two different things. And I am hit by the second one:)

    It's so very important to exfoliate your skin. Your body sheds skin cells at an amazing rate every minute of every day. If you don't get rid of them, they'll just sitting on your skin making you look dull and dry. No matter how much lotion you use, you're never going to have glowing skin if you don't exfoliate. Grab a body scrub and hit the shower. Gently rub your exfoliator in circular movements on your entire body from the shoulders down and rinse clean. Continue to do this 2-3 times a week for year-round beautiful skin.
