Summer Time Skin





This year summer starts officially on June 21st. Most beauty gurus will advise you to switch your skin care regimen and products for the new hot season. I wear makeup on a daily basis but since it is a sweltering 90 degrees here in GA wearing foundation can feel like a bit much in this heat. I decided to switch from my MAC Studio Fix SPF 15 liquid to Revlon's  Color stay. I love Revlon's accessibility and most of all price. I have used this liquid foundation in the past and this line has a wide array of brown and tan hues to choose from. Kudos to Revlon for recognizing that women of color come in a lot of colors!  Right now with my slightly tanned skin I am the Caramel color. In MAC I wear NC 45. I have been trying to stay out of the sun to avoid getting unsightly tan lines but it is inevitable. I will just have to bronze my chest and shoulders for my wedding day because I already see stripes smh. I love the sun kissed look on the model above and her abs! Speaking of sun kissed I also took out my Wet & Wild bronzer for the sunny season. I love wearing bronzer this time of year, it just gives you a healthy glow perfect for a day out or on the beach. The only other thing I need to beef up in my skincare routine is WATER and lots of it.
If you wish to still have a made up look without wearing foundation you can simply choose a tinted moisturizer with SPF. I'm also loving the very peachy and golden pink blushes for Spring/Summer and I've been reaching for my MAC studio fix as a fresher for my skin lately too, I love that stuff!


What are some things you do differently for your skin during the warmer months.
