Summer is the time when you have to constantly brave UV radiation and heat. Here are a few tips to stay cool this summer.
Sunscreen: Go heavy on this magic protection. Since facial skin is more prone to the effects of UV radiation than body, opt for a sunscreen with spf 50, while spf 30+ is recommended for the body.
Homemade face packs: Rather than visiting salons frequently, it's best to try out home-made face packs. Rose water, fuller's earth, pulps of fruits like banana, lemon and papaya, honey and curd are some of the ingredients that you can use while preparing a face pack at home. These are a quick-fix remedy for oily skin with acnes or blemishes.
Fruit mania: Try to include fruits like watermelon, mango, grapes, oranges and papaya in your diet. You can either eat them raw or drink fruit juices.
Keep hydrated: Having at least eight glasses of water every day is very important. If confused about the daily water intake, check your weight and divide it by two. You need to consume water according to your body mass.
Accessories: Umbrellas and hats or bandanas are a must during summer. Strap your watch a tad loosely around your wrist to avoid any marks. Wear sandals than ballerinas or sneakers, and let your feet breath.
Clothes: Summer is the best season to dress as fashionably as possible and experiment with colours. Wear brightly hued cotton, chiffon, khadi and sheer outfits during summer. White is the new black in summer. Avoid shrugs, jackets, or stoles as far as possible this season.
