Summer Beauty Essentials

       

Hi everyone I have come up with a new blog for you. As we all know summer season is on peak.We all get issues with our skin because of Sun,heat and pollution.So today I will be sharing some Summer essentials which you should have and carry with you during this summer season.




     1. Facewash/Cleanser

   Cleansing your face is an important part of the daily skin care routine to have beautiful clean skin. Select a cleanser/facewash focusing on your skin type (for normal, oily, dry, combination skin).In summers to avoid acne/pimples and dryness or oiliness  you can choose cream based cleanser if you have dry skin or if you have oily skin you can pick a gel based facewash.I prefer using Himalaya Neem or Aloevera and Clean & Clear facewash. You can choose according to your skin type.



       2. Sunscreen

This is the most important thing you need in summers. Your skin get directly hit by UV rays which can burn your skin like anything. Always wear a sunscreen if you going out or even if you at home sunscreen is a must.I would say Neutrogena, Lakme or VLCC. They all are quite good.



       3. BB/CC Creams

In summers specially in day time when you going for work or college. You don’t want that heavy cakey foundation on your face. So opt for BB or CC creams in summers. There are several creams available in the market.Either you can go for Maybelline Clear glow BB stick or if you have dry skin try Garnier BB cream or you can try Lakme CC cream as well.You can choose according to your skin type.It gives you a smooth and even skin.







      4. Compact Powder

      In heat we all get sweaty especially on T zone area and above your lips.You should always use a compact powder for setting up your makeup. It absorbs all the oil from your face and gives you a fresh look. You can opt for Lakme Perfect Radiance white or Maybelline clear glow all in one.






      5. Kajal

 Kajal is a must have for every girl. Avoid using liquid liners in summers.You can use kajal or kohl pencil as a liner on your top & bottom lash lines.I highly recommend Lakme eyeconic & Maybelline colossal.They both are smudge proof and stays for a long time.


 

 6. Lip balm /Matte shade Lipsticks

I have heard from a lot of people about their lips getting dried up in summers.It’s true because of dehydration in sun or heat, lips  do get dry.One should always carry a lip balm in her purse.My favorite is Maybelline baby lips.If you are a lipstick person go for matte shades opt for corals,pink and peaches in day time even bold shades are in you can go for bold red matte,burgundy or moves.I am a huge fan of Colorbar velvet matte lipsticks.You can opt for your favorite brand.



      7. Deodorant

Every one of us wants to smell good. But many of us have sweating or body odor issues. So you should always apply and carry a good deodorant.It freshen you up and you don’t get that stinky smell from yourself. I personally like  Dove go fresh & Nivea pearl & beauty.They both have that refreshing fragrance.


 8. Wipes/Tissues


  You badly need a hankey or wipes/ tissues whenever you go out.So do carry a pack of  either a    tissue or wipes with you to hydrate your face and clean that extra oil on your skin.You can use baby  wipes also.



So these were my Summer Beauty Essentials.I hope it is helpful for you too.
Take good care of your skin to maintain the charm & beauty.
Use products which are suitable for your skin type.
Don't experiment your skin with cheap products.
Always check the product from inside and its expiry date before buying a new product.

I will see you guys in my next blog.

Stay Beautiful
