Exfoliation and moisturisation
Start summer the right way by giving your skin a proper refresh. A good body scrub removes the dead skin that has built up over winter and creates the perfect base for moisturisation — and if you love a nice tan, well-exfoliated skin is the key to an even, radiant result. Follow up with a rich moisturiser and show a little extra love to your hands, feet, knees and elbows. Want to give the eye area a little boost too? Our Rejuvenating Eye Gels deliver deep hydration and are the perfect at-home spa moment.
Sun protection — always
No compromises here. A high-SPF sunscreen is a must every single day, whether the sun is out or not. Keep in mind that a foundation with SPF does not replace proper sun protection — always apply sunscreen as a separate step, before your makeup. And don't forget your ears, lips and the back of your neck.
Stay hydrated
Six to eight glasses of water a day is what your body needs — and in summer, it matters even more. The heat makes you sweat more and lose fluids faster, which can lead to headaches and fatigue. Bring a large water bottle wherever you are, whether you're sitting in the garden or out at the beach.
Give your lashes a summer break
Imagine a summer free from mascara stress. It is actually possible — with the right preparation. Start using Xlash Eyelash Serum well before your holiday begins, so your lashes are in top condition, longer and stronger, when the time comes. Want well-defined brows without too much effort? Our Micro Sculpting Brow Pencil gives you natural, polished brows in a matter of seconds.
Create a spa feeling at home
A staycation is the perfect opportunity to treat yourself to a real beauty moment. Put on a pair of Calming Eye Gels with aloe vera and hyaluronic acid, put on your favourite playlist and let your skin recover. Simple, effective and indulgent — without leaving home.
Makeup that lasts
Prefer not to go completely makeup-free? Choose products that actually hold up in the heat. Skip the mascara on low-key days and reach for a Drama Mascara for the evenings when you want a little extra — or try our Weightless Mascara for a light, natural look that doesn't weigh you down. Finish with a touch of bronzer on the cheeks and a layer of lip colour, and you're ready for whatever summer brings.
