Sunny days are here, which means it is time to enhance our glow using a combination of products to build a healthy skin barrier and practice sun protection! A radiant complexion can be attributed to a variety of factors such as diet, sleep, stress management and of course, skincare! Taking the time to make a few small adjustments in your daily routine can make all the difference when it comes to how you feel and how you look. We are here to make it a little easier for you when it comes to picking out the best products! Below we have listed a routine that will leave you feeling fresh and bright all summer long. 

Start with a Hydrating Cleanse

Start your morning using a clean beauty multi-purpose facial balm like Cerabalm – that reveals fresh, hydrated skin. This magical balm works as a cleanser, a moisturizer and a mask; hence why we call it our “desert-island” pick. Ideal for all skin types and packed with nourishing minerals and botanicals leaving the skin with a firmer and more radiant complexion. This also makes it the perfect product to properly massage your face with. Get the best of both worlds by giving yourself a relaxing facial massage and enhancing your glow at the same time. 

 *Pro-tip: mix a rice-size amount into your favorite foundation for that all-day glow! 

The Importance of a Toner

Traditionally, toners were used as another form of cleansing to remove any traces of oil and dirt. New formulations will still effectively remove debris as well as provide nourishment, and exfoliation and improve the efficacy of other products. After properly cleansing the skin you would apply your toner to the face, neck and decollete. The Hyalogy Platinum Lotion from Forlle’d is suitable for all skin types, particularly those on the oily side. Its antioxidant-heavy formula helps to protect the skin from free radicals, reduce hyperpigmentation and eliminate blemishes. Toning the skin plays an important role in prepping the skin for that radiant complexion. 

Masking

This mask is not called an instant radiance booster for no reason. Masque PIGM 400 is made up of a high concentration of brightening actives and antioxidants this sheet mask will instantly smooth away any signs of fatigue and enhance skin radiance. After applying evenly on the skin, use your favorite skincare tool such as a jade roller or gua sha to allow for even deeper penetration!

Protect your Skin with SPF

You can’t be doing proper skincare without proper sun care! Sun protection is an essential step to prevent hyperpigmentation, wrinkles and skin cancer. EltaMD sunscreen is the #1 dermatologist-recommended professional sunscreen brand.  EltaMD’s UV Luminous Broad Spectrum SPF 41 will keep the skin protected and radiant in the sun. Its light rosy tint blends into the skin seamlessly and blurs imperfections. Wear it under makeup or by itself for that luminous finish.
