Beauty 6 years ago 6 Steps To Get Your Glow Back
It’s been 4 months since June was born and I have a confession to make: My skin has been feeling quite dull.
I love easy beauty tips, tricks and routines, and I’m determined to get my skin back to the way it feels its best. The secret is, if your skin is clear and glowing from the start, you won’t need tons of highlighters. Au naturel is where it’s at, especially during those hot summer days.
Our friends at Olay are all about helping you achieve that summer glow. Their Total Effects Anti-Aging Moisturizer with SPF 30 helps to fight the 7 signs of aging thanks to its creamy vitamin-rich ingredients. Using a daily SPF will help protect your skin from the #1 cause of visible skin agin.
Here are 6 simple hacks to get your glow back…
1: Splash your face with cold water {or if you’re crazy, ice cubes}
While it may not sound like the most pleasant thing in the world, during those hot summer days it can actually be quite refreshing. Cold water or ice on your face {also known as an “ice facial”} improves the circulation of blood, and in turn leaves you radiant. The increased blood to your face makes you and your skin lively. Added benefit: you will be energized and ready to take on the day like never before.
2: Moisturize with SPF
While you may think sun exposure is the secret to glowing skin, consider this… Too much sun can actually dull out your skin, and of course has other damaging effects as well. I love moisturizing my face with Olay Total Effects 7-in-1 Anti-Aging Daily Face Moisturizer because not only does it target dark spots and dull-looking skin through its ingredients, but the SPF 30 protects you from unwanted sun exposure. It’s my all-in-one savior, especially when I’m amping up my glow.
3: Eat your fats
News flash: it’s 2019 and we’re not scared of fats anymore. On the contrary, we’ve fully embraced fats and for more than one reason. Not only are they healthy for your insides, but they shine through and make you glow from within. So cozy up to your avocados, olive oil, and eggs this summer and you’ll be sure to see results in not only how you feel, but how you look. Plus, obviously drink water too {that’s a given though for healthy, glowing skin!}.
4: Clean your makeup brushes
This is just a friendly PSA to wash your brushes. We all know that in order to have clear skin we must wash our face, so why don’t we make it more of a habit to wash our brushes? It’s so easy to do and trust me, you’ll never know why you didn’t make it a habit sooner.
5: Facial massage
Facial massage is one of the newest trends and for good reason. Just like the cold water or ice, facial massage circulates the blood and leads to glowing, healthy skin. Plus, it makes you feel oh so relaxed and luxurious.
6: Exercise
Last but not lease, move your body! To add another to the long list of benefits we get from working out, your skin with thank you. When you workout, your heart race increases and in turn, the blood flow speeds up. This all aids in the removal of toxins from your body, and the less toxins, the less likely to have them affecting your skin. You’ll be glowing {and happier from those endorphins} in no time!
