The sun is back in its full glory, bringing with it a great release from the dryness winters brought to our skin. However, summers have their own set of hazards but by employing some measures you can have yourself looking beautiful as ever, every moment of everyday!

Well the first thing that enters our mind when we think of summers is ‘water’, be it the sea or the pool and if you spend too much time in it without taking care, you are likely to damage your skin and hair in more ways than you know. So the first rule is to keep your skin covered in a sun screen every time you enter the waters. You must massage your body well with it to make sure it seeps in your skin pores. This will help chemicals and other destructive elements present in water from affecting your skin.

Another important thing you need to take care of during summers is your make-up. The heat of the sun can easily melt your make-up so make sure you do not cover your face with layers of foundation during summers. So the rule of the thumb is to apply as little make-up as possible and only stick to natural shades to look naturally beautiful in your own skin. Some of these shades include nude earthen colors, plum, shimmers and glosses.

Skin pores already tend to get blocked by the sweat and dust particles during hot days and a layer of makeup can only make it worse. If you think you desperately need something to hide your imperfections, use a cream-based foundation in very little quantities and dab it with a light foundation powder so that the cream gets locked. You can also use a tinted moisturizer if you think using a foundation might not be a bright idea during summers. It works equally well in hiding small flaws on the face.

Dark eye make-up should also be avoided on all occasions.This is so because the moment it catches the heat, you will start looking like a raccoon when great makeup smudges around your eyes. Choose bronzer for evening and blush anytime to create an image of sun-kissed cheeks. The best way to escape this it to use waterproof make-up during the hot summer months, i.e. if applying make-up is a must. Ideally you should avoid it as much as you can.

Get your hands and legs cleaned and dare to use some bold colors on them. This will add to the fun element that summers bring with them.
