Gorgeous, Glowy, and Simple — The Ultimate Beauty Routine for Warm Weather Days
The warm weather is finally here And I dont know about you but I feel like a completely new and rejuvenated woman whenever the first rays of sunshine start to hit my face Of course that metamorphosis also includes my beauty routine Instead of my usual winter aesthetic a full face of makeup and seek hair my springsummer beauty routine is a lot more laid back soft and natural So if youre looking for ways to freshen up your look over the next couple of months heres my ultimate beauty routine for warm weather days
Skincare Routine Refresh
The first major shift is always to my skincare routine I want my skin to look as fresh dewy and healthy as possible while still protecting it from the sun And how do I do that By switching up a couple of products First and foremost Ill make sure that the sunscreen I am using has a SPF of at least 50 and that its waterproof Even if youre not directly swimming in the water the added humidity and sweat will make your sunscreen melt away in no time So thats why I always love to switch to a waterproof formula
In addition to that I will also change up my serums and moisturizers I love using vitamin C in my springsummer skincare routine especially during the day Vitamin C is a potent antioxidant which means that it will protect your skin cells from oxidative stress while also boosting the efficiency of your sunscreen When it comes to moisturizer I like to keep it light and simple during the warmer months A water based gel formula works best for me personally And last but not least lets talk cleanser Because I am wearing waterproof sunscreen I like to go a bit heavier with my cleanser So instead of a cream cleanser I usually switch to a foaming gel cleanser
Fresh and Easy Makeup
Finally lets talk makeup Im all about glamorous and matte makeup looks during the winter months However thats not really my vibe once the temperature goes up The heat combined with the humidity and sweat just makes any heavy makeup look appear cakey So my summer makeup is all about a fresh and clean base And the easiest way to do that is by switching from a foundation to a BB cream and from powder to cream products Instead of relying on a bunch of powder to keep your makeup in place simply add a generous amount of setting spray once youre done with your look
Summer Hair
Last but not least lets talk hair If youre a wavy or curly hair girly you know that the humidity that we experience during summer makes it almost impossible to wear your hair straight In addition to that who wants to come near a flat iron at that time anyway So the spring and summer seasons should be all about embracing your natural hair texture Trust me I know how frustrating that can be But you still have enough time to play around with different products and routines And even if you dont find the one that matches your needs I would still strongly encourage you to make the switch to heatless styles Remember its summer And your hair deserves a vacation too
