Summer Essentials to Add in Your Skincare
The hot season is upon us and we know the harmful and damaging effects the heat of the sun can bring to your skin. However, this should not hinder you from doing the things that you love outside. To ensure that you can still enjoy being out and about without risking your skincare, here are the products that must be included in your beauty regimen! Gail, your best friend in beauty, carefully hand picked these for you!
1. Face Mist
Number one on our list is face mist which provides instant cooling and hydrates your skin with just a few spritzes.
Gail’s Recommendation: Eminence Mangosteen Revitalizing Mist
What it Does: This dreamy combination of antioxidant-packed mangosteen, energizing ribose and pore-refining red clover work in perfect harmony to revitalize the skin.
2. Lip Balm
Those lips? Believe us they are bound to get chapped from dehydration during summer. Keep them moisturized by drinking lots of water and swiping your handy lip balm regularly.
Gail’s Recommendation: Eminence Citrus Lip Balm
What it Does: A petroleum free citrus treat for the lips with shea butter and sunflower seed oil to give lips maximum hydration and a sexy sheen. With continued use the natural peptides make lips look voluptuous and youthful.
3. Hydrating Facial Wash
Choose gentle facial washes during the summer, so you don’t increase your skin’s sensitivity to sun.
Gail’s Recommendation: Eminence Stone Crop Gel Wash
What it Does: For those with even the most sensitive skin, this Stone Crop Gel Wash washes away impurities without drying out the skin. The oil-free extracts help even skin tone and minimize the appearance of blemishes to leave a healthy complexion.
4. Light-weight Lotion
To give dry skin the hydration it needs, look for a lotion with a light-weight texture because the weather itself is already heavy for your skin.
Gail’s Recommendation: Eminence Acne Advanced Clarifying Hydrator
What it Does: This ultra-lightweight hydrating lotion reduces the appearance of oily skin, resulting in a soft, matte finish. Powerful lotus extract diminishes shine, while time-release encapsulated salicylic acid reduces blemishes and breakouts. In addition, zinc hyaluronate and arbutin reduce the look of irritation and scarring.
5. Sunscreen and SPF
Last but definitely not the least (it’s actually the most important) is sunscreen. Again, we’ve already re-iterated how important it is to always wear sunscreen and SPF products even if you will not be directly exposed to the rays of the sun. Choose SPF products that are light-weight and can block UV rays.
Reminder: To maximize the effectiveness of sunscreen, make sure to apply it at least 20 minutes before going out and re-apply every 2 hours.
Gail’s Recommendation: Eminence Tropical Vanilla Day Cream SPF
What it Does: A tropical day cream formulated with vanilla, shea butter and SPF 40 all mineral protection to revitalize skin and help prevent sunburn. Suitable for all skin types.
