Every year it’s the same. July hits and we start singing LFO’s Summer Girls at the top of our lungs while rolling down the Pacific Coast Highway in our convertible. (OK, it’s a hatchback, but we pretend it’s a convertible.)
Next thing you know, we’re sunburned, our skin is dry, our hair is a mess and pretty soon we’ve changed our tune to Cruel Summer by Bangarang.
Luckily, we’ve mastered the art of adapting our routine to keep our glow all the way through August. Here’s how!
Night
Step 1: Exfoliate All Over
Sure, we love our summer tan, but the dry, dull skin that comes along with? Not so much. We keep our skin bright and energized by removing lifeless skin cells with Stemulation® Daily Micro Derm Scrub in the shower.
Step 2: Moisturize, Moisturize, Moisturize!
Now that we have soft, fresh skin, it’s time to douse ourselves in lotion. We love using a body butter at night, which has a heavier consistency, and forms a barrier to lock in moisture while we sleep. And for our face, we love Burt’s Bees® Cleansing Oil with coconut and argan oils to take off our makeup without stripping natural oils.
Morning
Step 3: Moisturize… Again!
Yep, after washing our face with a gentle cleanser, we use OSEA Atmosphere Protection Cream all over our face, neck, and chest. Did you know that the neck is one of the most commonly neglected areas when it comes to skin care? And one of the first to show signs of aging? Yikes!
Step 4: Sunscreen. Everywhere.
If you don’t like that greasy feeling of normal sunscreen on your face, we totally get you. We’re obsessed with Burt’s Bees® BB Cream with Broad Spectrum SPF 15. This stuff protects as it moisturizes and gives you an even tone.
Step 5: Ride the Waves
In order to keep your tresses from getting majorly damaged, you’ve got to avoid applying heat to your hair as much as possible. One style that is a summertime staple is the beachy wave look. We use our FabFitFun Everyday Beach Waves Spray (which comes with our Summer Box) to keep our hair beautifully blowing in the wind just like Pamela Anderson’s slow-mo beach run. Lightly mist your dry or damp locks, then scrunch with your hands to get amazing texture — no heat required!
Step 6: Lip Service
Don’t forget your pucker! Vitamin E is your pout’s best friend, and Passport To Beauty’s Gypset Luminous Lips Gloss is full of the powerful stuff. Rich in hydration and antioxidants, we use this high shine gloss to keep our lips looking kissable all day long.
