Summer is here! There’s nothing better about Summer, than to relax, unwind and show off some skin. This season it’s important to maintain a good routine to keep skin looking healthy, supple and moisturised.
I like to change-up my skincare routine to suit the warmer months. Here are my top picks to keep skin looking sleek and smooth…
Beat the break outs!
Been working up a sweat from exercising? Or been out and about on those super hot Summer days? Don’t let sweat dry on the skin as it can cause pores to clog, leading to break outs! After exercise, cleanse with
Palmer’s Cocoa Butter Formula Daily Cleansing Gel RRP $9.99 - it will remove dirt and oil, while toning and clarifying skin. With core ingredients Cocoa & Shea Butter, your skin will feel moisturised and nourished not tight or dry.
Makeup and alcohol will also clog pores like crazy, so once a week draw out impurities, dirt and nasties with Palmer’s Cocoa Butter Formula Purifying Mask RRP $9.99. This will give your facial skin a deep cleanse! Kaolin clay works to gently detox and purify skin, while the sweet almond oil, a lightweight skin emollient, locks in moisturise.
Keep your cool
If you suffer from severely dry, itchy skin then stay cool and calm this Summer with the help of Palmer’s Cocoa Butter Formula Daily Calming Lotion RRP $7.40. With a Soy and Oat blend, its unique formula will soothe and moisturise dry, itchy skin. This hypoallergenic, quick-absorbing lotion provides relief for irritated skin conditions while helping create a protective barrier to retain moisture. Perfect to use if your skin is irritated after taking a swim in a chlorinated pool!
Take care of sensitive, redness-prone or irritated facial skin with Palmer’s Cocoa Butter Formula Daily Calming Facial Lotion RRP $12.99. This special blend of ingredients including Chamomile, Aloe Vera and Milk Proteins together with patented MLE technology will calm and soothe, leaving skin lightly hydrated.
Hydrate, hydrate, hydrate!
Your outsides need just as much hydration as your insides, especially in the warmer months! Palmer’s Cocoa Butter Formula Hydrating Gel Lotion RRP $7.40 with Aloe and Cucumber Extract is a lightweight lotion refreshing on the skin and fast absorbing. With the same moisturising properties as the original Cocoa Butter Formula, but in a light gel lotion, this has become my regular moisturiser in Summer.
Post shower hydration calls for Palmer’s Cocoa Butter Formula Deep Radiance Gel Oil RRP $10.60. This unique Gel Oil is great as a deep hydrating hit before a night out. After showering, apply to damp skin and blend in (also great to extend the life of your Natural Bronze Tan).
Goes on gloss, stays on glam!
For a deep radiant glow, glide on Palmer’s Cocoa Butter Formula Body Gloss RRP $10.99. This luxurious cream has a subtle shimmer to illuminate your skin for those special Summer nights out. Apply all over the body, especially the legs, arms and chest – perfect for the party season!
