Sun Protection Is A Must
Sun protection is an absolute must when it comes to taking care of your skin during the summer months. Exposure to harmful UV rays can lead to sun damage, premature ageing, and even increase the risk of skin cancer.
To shield your skin, always apply a sunscreen with an SPF of 30 or higher before stepping out into the sun. Remember to cover all exposed areas, paying extra attention to your face. Reapply sunscreen every two hours, or more frequently if you’re swimming or sweating.
Along with sunscreen, seek shade during the peak sun hours and don’t forget to protect your lips with a lip balm containing SPF to make sure they are protected and moisturised!
The Brushworks Ice Roller is a refreshing tool that can work wonders for your summer skincare routine. This handheld roller can be easily stored in the freezer, allowing it to become cold and icy. The cold therapy provided by the Ice Roller helps to soothe and calm the skin, reducing redness, puffiness and inflammation. It can be used to alleviate sunburn, relieve headaches, and even minimise the appearance of pores. Simply roll the chilled roller across your face, neck, or body for an instant cooling sensation that soothes your skin. The compact and ergonomic design makes it easy to use and ideal for on-the-go use during hot summer days.
Lighten Up Your Moisturiser
In the summer, it’s important to adjust your skincare routine to accommodate the warmer weather and even though your skin may appear more glowy in summer, your skin still needs to be moisturised. One key adjustment is switching to a lighter moisturiser.
During this season, a lighter moisturiser helps prevent the skin from feeling overly greasy or weighed down. Opt for oil-free or gel-based moisturisers that provide hydration without adding extra oils onto your skin that can clog your pores.
When applying a lighter moisturiser in the summer, use a small amount and gently massage it onto clean, dry skin. Focus on areas that tend to get drier, like the cheeks and forehead, while being mindful not to neglect the rest of your face and neck.
Remember, a little goes a long way, and the goal is to maintain a well-balanced level of hydration without overwhelming your skin with thick moisturisers.
The Brushworks Tan Applicator Set is the perfect addition for achieving a flawless and streak-free tan during the summer months. This set includes a tanning mitt, back tanning applicator and a face mitt. The mitts are made from a soft and velvety material, allowing you to apply self-tanner smoothly and evenly onto your skin, without any streaks or patches. The mitt provides a barrier between your hands and the tanning product, preventing any unwanted staining. The back applicator is perfect for reaching difficult areas like the back and shoulders, ensuring an even application all over. You can achieve a natural-looking tan without exposing your skin to harmful sun exposure.
Stay Hydrated
During the hot summer months, staying hydrated is crucial not only for your overall well-being but also for your skin’s health. Drinking enough water helps avoid dehydration, which can make your skin feel tight and sore.
A refreshing tip to beat the heat and keep your skin revitalised is to incorporate cooling facial mists into your skincare routine. Look for mists that contain hydrating and soothing ingredients like aloe vera, cucumber and rosewater. Throughout the day, simply spritz the mist onto your face for an instant burst of cooling hydration.
Not only will this help replenish moisture, but it will also provide a refreshing sensation and help to revive tired or sun-exposed skin.
Give your summer skin some much-needed TLC with the So Eco Exfoliating and Cleansing Face Mask Set. Designed to enhance your skincare routine, this applicator allows for precise and hygienic application of your favourite face masks. The silicone bristles ensure a gentle cleanse and the spatula side allows for even distribution of the mask. Whether you’re looking to hydrate, soothe, or rejuvenate your skin, this is an essential tool for a pampering and refreshing summer skincare experience.
Exfoliation Is Key
Exfoliation is an essential step in summer skincare. With increased heat, sweat, and environmental pollutants, our skin can become congested and dull. Regular exfoliation helps remove dead skin cells, unclog pores, and promote a fresh and radiant complexion.
Choose a gentle exfoliator suited for your skin type and exfoliate 1-2 times per week to maintain a healthy balance. By incorporating exfoliation into your summer skincare routine, you can reveal smooth and rejuvenated skin that is ready to glow under the summer sun.
The So Eco Exfoliating Body Gloves are an essential tool for achieving smooth and glowing skin during the summer season. These gloves are designed to exfoliate and revitalise your body, sloughing away dead skin cells and promoting a fresh, radiant appearance. The gentle yet effective texture of the gloves helps to improve blood circulation and stimulate the skin, leaving it feeling rejuvenated and smooth to the touch. Made from eco-friendly and sustainable materials, these gloves are not only beneficial for your skin but also for the environment. Incorporate these gloves into your shower routine to enhance your summer skincare regimen and unveil a healthy, glowing complexion from head to toe.
