Girls just wanna have… healthy and glowing skin! Summer is just around the corner and all I can think of lately is getting that glow on my skin back after such a harsh winter.
Even though I LOVE summers, I have to admit they can be tough on my skin. Premature aging, dryness, burns, and tissue damage are just a few of the issues that spending hours under my beloved sun can cause. Ugh!
1. Get High-Quality Sleep
I’ve been a professional aesthetician for over ten years now and even own two med spas in Atlanta. I kid you not, it’s taken me a long time to finally figure out you CAN get the best of both worlds. Yes, it’s totally possible to enjoy a sunny day without making a wreck of our skin and below I share all my summer skin care tips that will get you glowing in no time!
2. Face Masks
3. Sunscreen, sunscreen, sunscreen
4. Keep Your Skin Moisturized
Healthy skin starts with the basics. Not only does getting a good night’s sleep help you look refreshed and wide-eyed, but it also helps us keep our metabolism and cortisol levels in check. Getting AT LEAST 7 hours of sleep and keeping a regular sleep schedule will help your skin stay moisturized and fresh.
5. Take Your Vitamins
Not only is using face masks on a regular basis THE best way to make sure your skin is always moisturized, but they’re also so much fun to use! This is one of my favorite summer skin care tips because I always make sure to make it a “me-time” ritual whenever I apply one on my face. I like to light some candles, pour myself a little drink, and listen to an empowering podcast or read a chapter of a book so I can relax while the mask does its job.
