SUMMER FUN!!!

Hey, True Beauties!  Welcome back to the Beauty Bar!!! Today's topic is...SUMMER FUN!!!!  I'm so excited for summer, and I'm getting ready. Summer is my favorite season besides fall.  It is a time when we can all relax and enjoy the warmth of the sun.  It's my favorite time because I love the beach, the music and especially the food!  For example: snow cones and yummy treats.  But there is a downside to all this summer fun. The sun is dangerous for your skin if you stay outside too long!  It can give you a horrible burn and may even cause skin cancer!  Be sure not to over-tan.  Otherwise, you'll look like a piece of shriveled bacon.  Believe me, you won't look good if you are constantly tanning.  Make sure to wear sun screen all the time if you live in a hot climate.  Always use a hydrating moisturizer while in the sun.  Basically, summer is a time when your skin is getting ready for war.  First things first: always put on sunscreen before you go outside in the heat.  Second, don't over-tan!  Third, be sure to hydrate your skin like crazy for extra protection against harmful rays from the sun.  If you want to wear makeup while at the beach, I recommend BB cream and waterproof mascara with lip balm.  Those are the rules and don't break them!  Otherwise, serious skin problems can arise!  Even if it's cloudy outside, I still recommend using sunscreen.  During the summer, sun screen is your best friend and you want to make sure that you hydrate and moisturize as much as possible.  The sun can really dry out your skin.  Stay tuned for tomorrow!

Beauty tip of the day: Cut a lemon in half, and dip one half in pure cane sugar. Then rub it all over the face and leave it for 5 minutes.  Then wash off with lukewarm water.  The lemon and sugar have a chemical reaction on the skin to make it look brighter and healthier.  Good luck!
