Oh, how we love stepping outside and feeling the sun on our faces (with SPF, of course!). As the weather heats up, so does the desire for a luminous, sun-kissed complexion.
Wondering how to achieve the perfect summer glow? From essential skincare to glowing makeup tips, read on for everything you need to know.
Our Tips For Achieving the Ultimate Summer Glow
Quench Your Skin’s Thirst
Hot summer days can quickly strip the moisture from your skin. That’s why we recommend a daily moisturiser to keep your skin soft, hydrated and glowing. Pro tip: Choose a moisturiser with SPF like Revitalizing Supreme+ SPF 25 to help protect your skin this season.
Achieving that perfect summer glow, however, isn’t just about external care. You’ll also want to make sure you’re drinking plenty of water throughout the day to keep your skin hydrated from within.
Bask Responsibly
Excessive sun exposure can damage your skin and strip its moisture and radiance. Whether you’re lounging in the sun or relaxing at home, be sure to protect your skin every day with high-level sunscreen. Perfectionist Pro UV Gel SPF 50 doesn’t just protect from UVA and UVB rays, but helps fight visible damage from environmental aggressors, too. Don’t forget to reapply throughout the day!
Create A Radiant Base
Get the perfect glowing complexion with our ultimate hydrating primer and skin tint duo. Start with Futurist Watery Glow Primer. Follow with Futurist SkinTint Serum for all-day moisturising, colour-true wear and a glow that lasts.
Bronze Up
For an instant dose of sunlight, try Bronze Goddess Powder Bronzer. This cult favourite boasts a silky and luxurious texture with natural, shine-free color to warm up your complexion.
Bring on the Shimmer
Apply Bronze Goddess Highlighting Powder Gelée to the high points of your face like the tops of your cheekbones or where the sun naturally hits. This luxe formula creates luminous radiance for an all-day glow.
Amp Up Your Glow
Give your skin an instant glow up and a sultry sheen with Bronze Goddess Shimmering Gelée. Apply this body shimmer lightly in areas that naturally catch light like your décolleté, top of your shoulders, collarbone and legs.
Reach For a Sunny Spritz
Glow up your day with Bronze Goddess Eau Fraîche, featuring radiant, warm notes of Amber, Sandalwood and Vanilla.
At night, drench yourself in the warm notes of Salted Coconut and Bergamot Essence in Bronze Goddess Nuit.
