Summer is one of my favorite seasons of the year. In fact, I continue to prolong my summers to July, occasionally traveling for an extended experience in Europe, until it ends there in September. There are a few things that I can’t live without especially in the hot and predominantly humid days of summer. Who doesn’t want to have perfect hair and skin this season? Achieve that sun-kissed glow and wind-swept ocean-breeze hair we all want. Here are some exceptional products that will definitely prove useful.
SHISEIDO
SUN PROTECTION LIP TREATEMENT SPF36
If you are going to protect your skin, you have to include your lips as well. This lip balm is a protective balm with a nourishing formula that helps defend your lips against powerful UVB rays.
SHISEIDO is located at Shangri-La Plaza Mall, Glorietta 4, Greenbelt 5, Alabang Town Center, Uptown Mall, Rockwell Powerplant Mall, and SM Megamall
AVEDA
COLOR CONSERVE
Hair coloring for both men and women is a common trend during the summer season. Extend the vibrance of your hair by protecting it from damage after long hours of sun exposure. This line of hair products is quite a potent solution. In particular, the leave-in treatment protects the hair color and instantly intensifies color radiance. It seals and smooths the cuticle for increased shine as well.
AVEDA is located at Greenbelt 5
ESTÉE LAUDER ADVANCED NIGHT REPAIR INTENSIVE RECOVERY AMPOULES
From the intense exposure of the sun, your skin must repair back after. Your skin gets so stressed during the day, especially if you have been sunbathing all afternoon. Sun exposure hastens aging and therefore it is important to use something intensive. This powerful recovery concentrate rapidly renews the look of overstressed skin and reduces visible irritation. Your skin will feel calmed and soothed the next day.
ESTÉE LAUDER BEAUTY COUNTERS are located in Shangri-La Plaza Mall, Rustan’s Makati, Rockwell Powerplant Mall, SM Mall of Asia, SM Aura Premier, and SM Megamall
SUN BUM NATURAL BROWNING LOTION
This is the perfect solution if you want to get that tanned skin you’ve been aspiring for. It protects, moisturizes, and tans your skin, all at the same time. It uses certified organic coconut oil, Argan oil, and Kukui Nut oil. This lotion will get you that fast, deep tan without needing to spend hours in the sun. My secret is out!
SUN BUM is available online at
