The scorching Summer makes it difficult to keep up with your travel spirit. Lethargy and prickly skin may shift focus on drinking water and refreshments. But what do you do for your beauty goals in the summer heatwave? Limit it to a sun bronzer, broad-spectrum sunscreen, ice pack, or think hydration and beyond?
While your throat may crave water, your body also needs ample fluids for general body wellness and flawless skin. Summer face packs are a must, but you cannot overlook the role of diet. Here are six beauty tips to help you look summer stylish and healthy.
- Consider Sun Protection For Lips And Hands.

Before stepping out in the heat, you dab sunscreen on your face. Think about sunscreen coverage for your lips, eyes, and hands. Lip skin is sensitive. Prolonged sun exposure can cause sunburn marks on lips that are hard to fade out. Your hands and eye zone are also at high tan, dark spots, and pigmentation.
Invest in lip balms, hand creams, and eye makeup with mild SPF to prevent skin damage and fine lines. Wear cheek-covering stylish hats and sunglasses to match your summer outfit while safeguarding your eyes from sun damage. Aside from using a gel nail polish set for a cool summer look, keep applying SPF hand creams indoors and outdoors for non-stop care. Choose the correct SPF for your dry, oily, or combination skin. Pick moisturizing SPF for dry skin and gel formula for oily skin.
- Boost Your Water Intake.

Drinking water should be your top priority in summers. Start your day with lukewarm lemon-infused water instead of normal water to detoxify your body, face, and skin. Apart from making your skin feeling fresh and rejuvenated, water also helps destroy harmful free radicals.
Reach out for water infusions like cucumber water and vitamin C to strengthen your body’s immunity and prevent heat rashes and strokes. Include vitamin C-rich foods like citrus fruits (lemons and sweet lemon), vegetables such as broccoli, Brussel sprouts, tomatoes, yellow peppers, capsicum. Indulge in watermelons for breakfast and keep sipping coconut water to hydrate your body. A water diet is good for weight watchers too.
- Pamper Your Skin With Summer Essentials.
Warm weather can cause dehydrated skin and curly hair faster. Your skin may also produce more bacteria and impurities in summers. Inability to get rid of germs and impurities from skin pores can cause acne and blackheads.
Keep up to your face cleansing, face wash, and moisturizing schedule. Go for a hyaluronic acid face wash for deeper face cleansing without disturbing the natural oils. Apply an astringent to balance your skin pH and serum before patting your skin moisturizer. Use gentle skin products free of parabens, phthalates. Exfoliate your face in the middle of every week to dislodge grease, whiteheads, and dead cells from your skin. Stock your skincare products to avoid any gap.
- Choose Organic Products.

Beauty shopping is fast, and international cosmetic brands are now just a click away. However, we overlook the ingredients going inside a cream, lotion, and hair care product. Trends are tempting, but they may not be effective every time. Weather changes and your hereditary traits can also be a mismatch to your product selection.
Herbal products are safe over drugstore variants and have no side effects. Some natural summer ingredients like aloe vera, cucumber, and cannabidiol (CBD) soothe your skin and repair the damage. Certain kitchen pantry products can work wonders for your skin.
- Try Waterproof Makeup.

Creasing eyelids and powder on cheeks is a summer mismatch. Nobody loves foundation melting off your face or panda eyes in the thick of summer. Sweat-proof your look by applying a soft makeup primer after your moisturizer. Use a tinted moisturizer and a concealer when you have to step out.
Wear less makeup and avoid the shimmering effect of creamy foundations. Explore nude shades in lip colors or an invisible lip liner to sport that carefree feeling. Avoid using eye cream on your lids. Stick to a regular pencil and experiment with neutrals. Make dewiness your summer makeup motto. Go swimming in your hip costume and waterproof mascara. Carry blotting papers to beat the oil and sweat.
- Wear Summer-Friendly Clothes And Accessories.
Summer heat is no excuse to hang up your boots and stay indoors. Dress up in light and comfortable clothing like shorts, khakis, linen, and cotton. Slip into flowy skirts, sleeveless tops, and off-shoulder dresses to show your summer pitch. Find your comfort and cheer in minidresses or maxi dresses at different hours of the day.
Light jewelry is fine, provided you don’t overdo it with dangling earrings and hoops. Stick to statement wear like studs and a thin chain. Pick earthy tones in jewelry to blend well with your summer outfits.
Summing Up
Keeping your cool in Summers can be daunting. Be regular in skincare, eat light and have liquids; get into morning walks, and wear comfortably light skin-friendly outfits to take you through Summers.
