Top Hair and Beauty Tips for a Sizzling Summer
ADVERTORIAL FEATURE
Summertime is all about embodying laidback glamour and effortless chic, but with the mercury rising and humidity on the increase, achieving that summer siren look can be tough. But, dont let the warm weather wreak havoc with your style this season. Take a look at these top tips for looking cool when the weather is hot and youll survive those sunnier climes, no sweat.
Hair care
During the summer, your every day hair care regime requires a little shake up. All that sun, sea and windy weather can dry out the hair, causing it to become damaged and look dull and lifeless. To help combat this damage and achieve lustrous locks, look for products that contain manuka honey or olive oil. These natural ingredients may help to nourish and rejuvenate dry and tired looking hair and keep damaged tresses soft and shiny.
Make under
When it comes to summertime makeup, less is generally best. During those long, hot days, all that mascara, eye liner and concealer is guaranteed to slide under the suns ruthless glare. To avoid the dreaded panda eyes look, cut down on the amount of makeup you wear, with minimal cover-up and eye decoration, and stick to lightweight products.
Best foot forward
As the sun emerges, so do our feet. With flip flops and sandals the footwear of choice during the warmer months, your feet are more visible now than at any other time of the year and your toes should be in tip top condition before they get their first airing, and this means a good quality foot scrub and pedicure. As the summer weeks roll on, all that beach action can take its toll on your tootsies, but a regular exfoliating and moisturising treatment should do the trick.
Faking it
The worst look you can sport during the summer is the sunburnt one. Theres nothing glamorous about red streaks and sore skin, so avoid scorching in the sun by lathering on a high factor suncream, donning a hat and light layers and, if youre after the bronzed goddess status, faking it altogether. Fake tan is a great way to achieve a healthy glow without damaging your skin and a perfect all over shimmer can be achieved with a tanning professional or the careful application of a do-it-yourself spray or cream.
