Summer Beauty: Ten Things You Can Do to Look and Feel Fab!

By Kayce

With summer just around the corner, it’s time to start getting ready for some great times and great memories! Here’s a list of the top things you can do to enhance your summer beauty!

1 Keep a cool spray bottle of water with some sliced cucumbers in it. Spray on your face to keep your delicate skin from drying out in the hot sun. This is important to keep your skin hydrated, and it also feels really refreshing!

2 During those long days at the beach, put your hair into a tight french braid. The sun, water, and wind will keep the hair out of your face, and when you get home and undo your braid, you’ll have beautiful wavy hair to match your golden tan!

3 Make yourself a mixed tape or CD of summer time hits. In the future, any time you hear one of these songs you’ve listened to a lot during the summer will remind you of that specific summer and the great times you had!

4 Just as the CD of summer songs can enhance your memories of the summer, so can scents! Choose cool summer perfumes like CK1 Summer, or anything tropical or citrusy. It doesn’t even have to be a perfume. It can be a beauty product or hair product. Everytime I smell clean&clear combination skin lotion, nutrogena face wash, or calvin klien scented nail polish, I think back to being 14 on summer vacation. If I smell ten-0-six face cleanser, or this pink and purple hair detangler, I think of summer time at age 16. When I smell this sparkle lotion, I think of being 17 at summer time with my summer love and new friends. So you see, whichever products you have for the summer will play a big impact on your memory – so choose something you love! This will make you feel beautiful all summer long.

5 Use a heat activated moisturizing spray in your hair while you sit in the sun. This will keep your hair from frying. Use sunscreen all the time. You’ll still tan, but you won’t burn or age too quickly. Use a bronzer if you want to look more tanned, as this won’t harm your skin.

If you’re going to tan, it’s better to face tan in the morning or evenings so the hot sun doesn’t cause you to have wrinkles.

7 Treat yourself to a manicure and pedicure. Even if you do it yourself, make sure your nails are all shiny, sparkly, and has a nice light color. The skin on your hands and feet should be soft and smooth.

Make yourself a yummy cooling papaya or banana face mask using:
4 tbsp ripe papaya pulp, or banana, mashed
½ tsp of honey
A squeeze of lemon juice

Mix all the ingredients together. Smooth all over your face. Leave on for 5-10 minutes while you relax, and put cool cucumber slices, cool tea bags, or a cold cloth over your eyes.. Rinse off with water. Great for rehydrating, and great for treating sun burn!

Keep your skin hydrated and moist, and avoid getting sun stroke by drinking as much water as possible while in the sun. Soda, ice caps, and juices don’t count.

10 Make it a point to hang out with the people in your life that care about you the most, and that you have the most fun with. Being around people that love you and make you feel good about yourself will make you less stressed, happier, and therefore you’ll look prettier. Also, make yourself smile.
