How To Get A Natural Sun-kissed Look This Summer

With spring turning into summer, many are replacing their winter clothing with bathing suits and flirty dresses. Summer is the time to work on that natural glow and blemishes are sometimes the one imperfection a pair of sunglasses cannot cover.

Here are some natural tips and products that will give your skin the natural sun-kissed look ensuring this summer to be the best one yet.

Tip #1: H20

Summer is the time to rise and dive. With many activities surrounded by water such as tubing and surfing, It's important to intake water just as much as enjoying it. Hydrating yourself regularly will nourish your body and skin removing dry patches and improve the overall skin appearance.

Something that helped me-
This is just a personal health decision, but I decided to eliminate soda from my regular diet and found that my skin improved and breakouts and pimples were less frequent. If this is a drastic change for you, try having water as your beverage two of the three meals and treating yourself to a sweet beverage at lunch or dinner instead of both.

Tip #2 Investigate your crime scene

Do you ever have those mornings when you rise and check your reflection and instead of just seeing the regular bed head monster, you are surprised by the little critter known as "the pimple"? It is important to acknowledge the type of blemish you are dealing with and cater to its needs. If you like to start your day with a quick jog or a trip to the gym, make sure to properly wash your face for your pours may clog up with sweat from your workout and may be the cause to your blackheads or little bumps on your complexion.

Something that helped me-
Although I have been blessed with easy care skin, I have that occasional pimple that just ruiens my day. Whenever I would receive this unwanted surprise, I always worry that it would distract my overall appearance and leaving me very self-conscious. When speaking to a skin doctor, studies show that blemishes that appear on the chin area may be hormonal or are caused by stress. Although this blemish is not caused by not properly taking care of your skin, there are products that can help your skin back to normal.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

Like I said, it's a big hassle.

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating.

So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.
