It's a well known fact that our beauty routine suffers a variety
of changes as the summer arrives. From our skin care routine to the
makeup products everything has to be altered in order to be able to
cope with the high temperatures effectively. A new set of
measurements must be taken in order to ensure that our beauty is
not being jeopardized by the summer dangers that present at every
step. However although we might try really hard at enhancing or at
least keeping our natural beauty intact sometimes even our best
intentions are doomed to failure.
None of the less, there's no need to despair as summer beauty
problems can easily be solved with a few clever strategies. By
understanding the cause of these unpleasant phenomena you will be
able to make smarter choices that will allow you to look your best
every single time. Here's how you can solve summer's most stringent
beauty problems:
Yellowish nail polish
If you are a fan of pale nail polish colors you might have the
unpleasant surprise to discover that your nail polish has somehow
inexplicably turned yellowish. The sun rays can often change the
color of light nail polishes so it's best to use strong dark and
fashionable shades to avoid this problem and to look stylish at the
same time.
Uneven tan
If for some reason the tan you acquired during your sunbathing
sessions is not exactly the one you aimed to get there's no need to
worry. There are two methods you can use to fix this problem. The
first one is a simple easy fix while the other is more of a long
term approach. You could try going to a salon where a technician
can airbrush the affected ares and even out skin tone.
The second method requires using two different sunscreens for
various spots on the skin. Use a sunscreen with a higher SPF on the
affected areas and a sunscreen whit a lower SPF on the rest of the
skin, on unaffected areas. Make sure to keep your skin well
moisturized and exfoliate regularly. In this way the skin tone will
become more even with time.
Sunburns
Aside from using conventional products on the market that will be
able to provide some kind of relief for sunburns and/or trying a
few home remedies for sunburns, you can partially
solve the beauty problems caused by the skin damage by applying a
few makeup tricks designed to hide sunburns.
Make sure to use a creamy foundation with a higher SPF than you
normally use since the skin is now more sensitive than before and
avoid further sunbathing sessions to avoid further damage.
Acne breakouts
While the sun might seem to camouflage blemishes, sometimes you can
discover that you have unexpected acne breakouts without any
apparent reason. The most frequent cause of this problem is an
ingredient contained in sunscreens. Generally the mineral oil
contained in most sunscreen can cause cosmetic acne.
Aside from avoiding sunscreens taht contain this ingredient try
choosing a sunscreen that has
avobenzone and oxybenzone as active ingredients. This should solve
your problem on the long term.
Green hair
Those who are fans swimming sessions might have the unpleasant
surprise of realizing that their hair turned green if they don't
pay attention to a simple hair care tip. To avoid the hair damage
done by chlorine and other heavy metals in the swimming pool wet
the hair with sparkling water before entering the pool. If the
damage has already been done you can fix it by using a shampoo that
has sodium thiosulfate as an active ingredient or to try to solve
this problem naturally by using lemon juice or vinegar.
Apply one of these two ingredients on the hair for 15 minutes than
rinse using lukewarm water. You should be able to see an
improvement gradually.
