Summer is finally here! It’s time to take a break from classes and hit the beach. I know everyone is pulling out the cute rompers, sundresses, and shorts; this means that our skin is facing the elements and the sun full blast! Imagine all of the dirt and pollution your skin is sucking up. Taking a dip in the pool dries out the skin and the humidity in the air makes the face greasy. Let’s commit to protecting and nourishing our skin this morning with these summer skin essentials!
Coconut Oil
Coconut oil has been a hyped up beauty ingredient for a while, but it’s still one of my favorites! It can be used on both the hair and skin and gives amazing results if used on the regular. Heavy lotions mixed with the humidity outside can make skin feel sweaty and sticky, so it’s best to go with something light. Coconut oil also aids in protecting the skin from UVA/UVB rays. It has properties that nourish and repair the skin while giving off a healthy glow. Unrefined is the best if you’d like to smell like coconut! If not, go for refined.
Tinted Moisturizer
I can’t deal with heavy makeup in the summer; it always melts off and looks greasy. The best option for the summer is a tinted moisturizer! It provides a nice coverage and usually has SPF. If the coverage isn’t enough, try applying a powder on top. I’m sure no one wants their foundation sliding all over the place in a greasy mess while chilling on the beach. The goal in makeup this summer should be light!
Moroccan Red Clay
I have very greasy skin that gets easily clogged. Clogged pores can cause dull and tired looking skin. This clay sucks things up easily and removes oil, dirt, leftover makeup, and toxins. You can use this all over your body! My pores are always tight when I rinse my face off. Make sure to remove most of your makeup prior to using this. This clay will have your skin looking matte all summer!
Frank Body Scrub
This scrub has changed my entire life. Seriously. If you’d like to avoid flakey and dry skin this summer, this scrub is a must-have. It is filled with nourishing almond oil, vitamin E, and much more. It diminished my stretch marks and made my skin silky smooth. Glow this summer with a great scrub!
