Summer Beauty Guide

Summer beauty guide. Well, it’s that time of year again when I have to rethink my daily beauty routine. Admittedly, I kind of like it because it means that I get to buy new products and shake things up a bit.
Secretly, or not so secretly, I’ve never really understood those people who insist on always looking the same.

Summer is the perfect time to experiment and especially when you are traveling because chances are you’ll only see many people you bump in to once.

Growing up I used to love watching my mom apply her make up and she always instilled in me that I should be aware of my appearance. I subscribe to this way of thinking because whether we like it or not, people are judgmental and we make snap decisions, so first impressions absolutely count. I firmly believe in giving yourself every possible chance to make the best impression.

The following is an amalgamation of some of my older posts which you will find are very relevant today.  Save this article and download the tips whenever you need them!

SUMMER HAIR CARE TIPS

Hair can be a whole different beast when the weather gets warmer. I completely forgot what it means to live in a humid climate. Every day when I wake up my hair is doing something different and that’s just something I’ve come to accept. I do, however, give it every chance possible to look its best.

What you’ll find in this article (prepare yourself it’s a long one):

  • The best way to manage fine hair in the summer.
  • The best way to manage thin hair in the summer and note, thin is different than fine.
  • The best way to manage curly and coarse hair in the summer.

General Tips For Every Hair Type

  • Trimming your hair
  • Using UV products
  • Skipping the styling tools
  • Switching to summer shampoos
  • Best haircut for your face shape

HOW TO WEAR RED LIPSTICK IN THE SUMMER

Lipstick can be hard in the summer and I admit that sometimes I just throw on a lip moisturizer, but then when I put on some colour it really does brighten my complexion.

What you’ll find in this article and don’t worry, this isn’t about wearing a bright red colour, but about enhancing your natural beauty.

  • Pairing a brighter red with a more casual hairstyle
  • Choosing a softer pink-red to tone down a bright shade
  • Letting your lips shine by pairing a colour with a perfect complexion
  • Using a stain or liner for a more subtle look
  • Finding your perfect shade

LOOK GREAT THIS SUMMER WITHOUT BEING A HOT MESS

Last but not least, when you find that the temperature is scorching day after day and all you want to do is lie on a beach or in a hammock by the lake, but you still need to go to work, how do you manage that while still looking your best.

What you’ll find in this article:

  • It all starts with your morning shower. Should you choose warm or cold water?
