One of the best parts of summer is spending a day relaxing by the beach. If you want to make sure your beauty game is on point while playing in the waves, use these tips and tricks.
Sunscreen, sunscreen, sunscreen!
Our first tip is the most important one: don’t skimp on the SPF. Choose sunblock with at least SPF 30 and reapply ever 90 minutes or whenever you get out of the water. Also, make sure you aren’t skipping any body part. Ears, tops of feet and even lips need sunscreen too.
Moisturize to prevent dry skin
Salt from ocean water and the hot sun can easily dry out your skin. Using an all-over body lotion before and after your beach trip can help prevent drying and cracking. Another thing that can dry out skin is excessive shaving. If you want to skip shaving all together, you can stop by AVC Aesthetics for waxing or laser hair removal.
Show your locks some love
Sun and salty water can also dry out your hair. Avoid heat styling and choose to shampoo every other day to let your hair have a break. If you start to notice some serious breakage, you can try a leave-in conditioner or some coconut oil.
Waterproof products are key
If you’re hoping for a bright and pretty look while taking beach selfies, you’re in luck! There are dozens of waterproof makeup products that are meant to stay put, even when you’re in and out of the water. You definitely don’t need to pile on the makeup; a touch of concealer and some waterproof mascara should be enough. AVC Aesthetics also offers permanent makeup, which is a great option for any beach goer.
It doesn’t take much to protect your skin and hair during a day in the sun. With these tips and tricks, you’ll hit the beach looking and feeling your best!
