1. Drink more water
If you think you drink enough, drink more! Water is not only essential in keeping your body healthy on the inside, but it also plays an essential role in keeping your skin hydrated and glowing. We should be aiming for around 2L a day at the very least! Remember, by the time you feel thirsty you are already dehydrated. It can be easy to forget to drink during the day, so I suggest purchasing and keeping a BPA free water bottle with you every day.
2. Wear Sunscreen!
We have all heard the term 'there's nothing healthy about a tan'. Here in Australia we have such a high instance of skin cancer cases that lead to death it's very scary. So look after your skin to give yourself the best chance at avoiding this horrible disease. Not only will sunscreen keep your skin healthy, it will also keep it looking youthful and prevent wrinkles and age spots. I love the beach and the sun and I still get a nice summer tan even when wearing 45+ sunscreen.
Tip - make sure you get a sunscreen specifically for your face. The face sunscreens tend to be a little less greasy and won't block your pores so much
3. Hair treatments
Summer is our hairs worst nightmare. Sun, salt and heat can prove seriously damaging through the warmer months. This is why I will use a home hair treatment once a week during summer. It's also a great idea to get an oil for every day use such as Morrocan oil. Smooth this through your tresses every day for some extra protection and an injection of moisture.
4. Tinted moisturiser
There is nothing worse than smacking on and sweating through thick foundations when the weather gets warmer. I have fallen in love with and swear by tinted moisturisers. They provide a decent amount of coverage and remain so light on your skin. A tinted moisturiser is an absolute must for summer beauty!
5. Moisturiser
If you want that beautiful summer glowing skin, you need to make sure you have a great skin regime. I moisturise after every shower in summer to give my skin a big drink after being outside and exposed to the elements. This is especially necessary if you've been burnt to help your skin not to peel! Beautiful skin is a statement. Look after the skin your in, your skin is after all the largest organ of your body!
