SUMMER ESSENTIALS 2018

Summers are here and the bright sun is back with the scorching heat. And not to forget the tan, sweat, short and airy dresses are all here. Summers demand a strict routine for the skin; Thus it is important to carry skin summer essentials along. And also some other thing which are essential to get through summers amazingly. Sun rays can be harmful really badly if not taken care off. Thus do not ignore your skin and yourself. So let us dig into this summer essential list.     


1) COOL SUNGLASSES:

The eyes need some protection too and thus sunglasses are a must. Well the sunglasses are used more to up the style quotient. These days we have such amazing variety of them in the market and they play a huge part in styling. I believe a right pair of sunglasses with the right outfit, changes the whole look.

I got this cool pair of sunglasses from cool winks and the best part is that they work for charity. So every pair you purchase from them is like sending help to someone. Also the price range and the quality they give is amazing. Even the packaging looked so nice and I cannot imagine getting that quality in the given price. So grab your sunglasses to rock this summer.

2) SUN SCREEN:  

When going for sun screens, it is important to pay attention to the SPF (Sun Protection Factor) it contains.It tells us the time period for which this layer of Sun Screen will protect our skin.It basically provides protection from the UV(ULTRA VIOLET)B rays of the sun. These rays can cause sunburn and even causes skin cancer. Dermatologists recommends a SPF 30 or 50 and that is what you should go for. Do not get into the myth that the higher SPF is better as there is nothing of that sought. In fact, even the SPF 30 and 50 are also not that different from each other.

We talked about UVB rays but there is also one another ray from which we need protection,i.e, UVA.
This one needs more attention as it can reach us even inside our houses. You read that right, these rays can enter through glasses and can reach you. To protect ourselves, you need to check for PA++.
You can find it on all the sun screens and more the number of +, more effective it is.

 These sun screens do not promise 100% protection, but definitely defines the time period for which they will protect your skin. My go to sun screen is LAKME Sun Expert PA Fairness UV Sunscreen Lotion. Since the time, I have started using this sun screen. I cannot think of any other one than this. It may sound a bit inappropriate but my affinity towards it is more because of it's aroma. The way it blends into the skin and it's aroma is magical. You can also go for LOTUS HERBALS SAFE SUN BLOCK. Both these are very budget friendly and girls students, who are on budget can go for it.

That is my go to sun screens for summers. What are yours??


3) UNDERARM ROLL-ON:

Who would want to move around with sweat smell? Nobody
Therefore, to get rid of this we have some amazing underarm roll on in the market. You can also go for deodorants, but roll on is definitely more convenient. The best roll on that I have come across so far is this NIVEA UNDERARM ROLL ON. 

It comes in a glass bottle and the application of product is easy by the roll on thing. You simply need to roll it on your underarm and a white cream textured fluid spreads along. The fluid easily blends into the skin and does not feel sticky at all. I have been using this for almost one year now and I totally love it. The first thing we want is that the aroma of it should last long. And this one literally does that, it easily lasts for 12 hours. Also it is very soft smelling, so it does not overpower your perfume.

One thing that bothers me is just the packaging as it is a glass bottle, so it can break easily. That is the only thing you need to worry about else it will take care of everything. It will also clear the dark underarms. So what are you waiting for, grab your bottle and have smooth and amazing underarms.

4) ALOE VERA GEL:

In summers, we often feel that our skin is not hydrated and thus we feel roughness. We can solve this with Aloe Vera gel, as it makes your skin hydrated and you will actually feel it. You can easily make out the difference between before and after.This gel provides you with a soothing effect and makes your skin feel cool and relaxed.

I was introduced to Aloe Vera gel by patanjali and the kind of reviews it was getting. Like I know so many people praising it and telling me to try it. If you try it once, it will make you addicted it is that good. It is like a savior when you feel that heat on your skin. I have always used this patanjali one and it never failed to impress me.

5) PERFUMES:

I know that I have already talked about a deodorant but a perfume is important as well. I feel if you smell good, then you will also feel confident. It feels nice to turn heads with amazing fragrances, right?

If you need to rush for a party or something, then perfumes do give you that kick. It takes away all the tiredness and makes you feel fresh. Also in summers when sweat and heat gets on us, then to survive we need these instant boosters. This bottle is a bit bigger size and of glass, you can go for pocket friendly perfumes as well. They easily fits into your pocket literally and thus are super easy to carry.
