Essential Summer Beauty Checklist
In hot weather, you can ease up on some of your beauty routine―but not these steps.
- Smoothing rough soles. Not only are calluses unsightly when they peek out from summer sandals but they can also crack and become painful. Slough off dry skin with a pumice stone for a minute at the end of every shower.
- Lining your lips. Steamy heat tends to melt lipstick, causing it to smear and run. Spend 30 seconds applying lip liner first to keep color in place.
- Washing your face at night. Because your makeup is lighter in the summer, it’s tempting to hit the sack without washing. But even light makeup, when coupled with nighttime sweat, can cause breakouts. Before you turn in, take two minutes to wash or use a premoistened face wipe.
