How to Keep Your Skin Fresh at Summer


Summer Skincare Essentials

With the guidance of sagely beauty blogger, Suzie, we go over skincare tips to keep in mind when transitioning your beauty routine from spring to summer. Remember, ladies, a chance in temperature also means a change in your routine as the hot weather and sun’s rays will damage your skin faster than you can say, “Pool party!”

Sure, relaxing by the beach is fun, but what about on days when all you want to do is pamper yourself in the comfort of your own home? With this Bath Salt Making Kit from Grow & Make, you can create your own personal blend of bath salts, and enjoy them all without leaving your home! Long live summer!
1. Summer Skincare Essentials – Moisturize

You  may think summer is the perfect time to ditch your moisturizer since, hey, you’ll be sweating buckets and in places you’ve probably never sweat before, but don’t! That’s a common misconception as your skin still needs to be hydrated and moisturized during the summer season. Remember, dry skin will only get drier if you’re not moisturizing, but continually sweating.

2. Summer Skincare Essentials- Sun Protection

If you’ve been using SPF for your skin throughout the year, this is the time to start doubling up on your protection. You can go as high as you want when it comes to SPF. However, you just have to find something that will be easily absorbed by the skin and a product that doesn’t feel too sticky. We recommend Andalou Naturals 1000 Roses Daily Shade Facial Lotion!

3. Summer Skincare Essentials – Tone

The summer heat will eventually get to you. What your skin needs in order to look fresh and hydrated all day long is a boost in the form of a toner. Toner will not only keep your skin fresh and oil-free, it will also restore its pH balance.

How to Keep your Eyes Healthy


Eat Right to Improve Your Sight
The eyes are vascular, so a heart-healthy diet that’s low in trans and saturated fat is important to keep the blood vessels of the eyes healthy. Foods rich in antioxidants are also known to help protect the eyes from age-related macular degeneration (ARMD), which is the leading cause of blindness among older Americans; as well as cataracts and other eye-related conditions. In the Age-Related Eye Disease Study (AREDS), subjects who supplemented their diet with Vitamin C, antioxidants, zinc, beta-carotene, and vitamin E experienced about a 25% reduction in risk of developing serious ARMD.

Here are seven foods help you see clearly.

You've probably heard that carrots and other orange-colored fruits and vegetables promote eye health and protect vision, and it's true: Beta-carotene, a type of vitamin A that gives these foods their orange hue, helps the retina and other parts of the eye to function smoothly.

But eating your way to good eyesight isn't only about beta-carotene. Though their connection to vision isn't as well-known, several other vitamins and minerals are essential for healthy eyes. Make these five foods a staple of your diet to keep your peepers in tip-top shape.
