We’ve already marked the official start of spring so now it’s time to start thinking about tweaking your summer beauty regime to suit the warmer months ahead. And, the good news is, in this blog we will tell you how to combat unwanted summer beauty stresses so you can be cool, calm and collected no matter how hot and humid things get…

Prime

To help keep your makeup in place during the day, you should try using a primer which will also help to reduce the horrid shine that warmer weather often brings. First apply your moisturiser and SPF, allow to dry, and then apply the primer before applying your face makeup.

Scrub then soothe

Legs and feet need extra attention, especially when summer is around the corner so be sure to give them a good scrub in the shower and then apply a nourishing moisturiser afterwards. Even better, book a microdermabrasion pedicure for super smooth feet! If you have a shower or bath just before bed, a really good idea is to moisturise your feet and slip them into a pair of cotton socks. And then, once you wake up, your feet will feel really soft and ready for strappy sandal weather!

Liquid vs pencil liner

When the heat is on, a good waterproof liquid liner is much better than pencil and won’t smudge or run in the sun or water. Not a good look and one to avoid!

Your skin will love a cold shower

They can be hard to take but cold showers are much better for you because hot showers steal moisture from your skin. Hot showers also wreak havoc on dry hair because it opens your hair follicles, causing them to dehydrate. Try opting for a lukewarm shower and for a minute or so at the end, turn the water to cold to quench your skin and seal your hair follicles. Your skin and hair will reap the benefits, skin will be extra smooth and hair extra shiny.

Fight the chlorine

Chlorinated water can turn hair an unpleasant shade of green so to help prevent this, apply oil such as olive oil, baby oil or coconut oil. A rinse of your hair with tap water will also work wonders before hitting the pool.

De-puff

Holidays and alcohol often go hand in hand so you might find yourself with a big case of puffy eyes the next morning after too much sun and cocktails. To help reduce the dreaded puffiness, slice up a refrigerated cucumber and then place them over your lids for 15 minutes. Works like a treat.

Client Testimonial: “Jodie is extremely professional and knowledgeable throughout the IPL treatment sessions. She explains the process and what to expect so that you are put at ease from the first consultation. During my IPL sessions, Jodie marked up the areas and avoided any moles or damaged skin, then preps using the cooler handle before a light shot. The light shot itself really doesn’t hurt, it’s done in seconds. The fact the skin is cooled first makes this an easy process to tolerate. I genuinely didn’t feel in pain at all and Jodie applied a lovely aloe balm to soothe the skin straight away. If anything I felt my appointments were more of a therapy as I knew I would be hair free come my holiday. After each session I came away feeling the progress getting better and better and by week 5 there was hardly any hair growth. I didn’t feel the need to shave anymore. I felt more confident and there is much less maintenance at home now which means I have more time for other things. I would highly recommend IPL hair removal by SkinBase and with Jodie as she made me feel at ease from the moment I asked about it and the difference it makes is life changing for someone who wasn’t so confident in her skin. I can’t wait for Summer and my holiday. Thanks Jodie & SkinBase.”
