Is there anything more exciting than that feeling summer brings? Clearer skies and sunnier days are finally upon us, and with it that feeling only good weather can bring.
Despite this, sweat and humidity can really put a dampener on our beauty routines, as well as our energy levels. Here are our favourite ways to beat the heat and stay cool this summer.
Update your beauty routine by injecting energy and freshness into it. Sukin Hydrating Mist Toner Spray is a quick, easy way to freshen up a tired, dry complexion. Spray onto clean, dry skin or keep in your bag for a quick fix on the go.
Keeping eyes fresh and cool will stop puffiness and keep you from looking tired; Alba Botanica’s Hawaiian Revitalizing Green Tea Eye Gel contains cucumber and aloe for a refreshed, wide-awake appearance.
Travelling? No problem! Long distances can drag our energy down, causing dull, lacklustre skin. Revive it with Pacifica’s Coconut Face Wipes, a handy travel size pack that is fantastic if you don’t have access to water for a proper cleanse.
