It’s summer time, that means time for mosquito bites and sunburns. I have great news, it doesn’t have to be so! Check out my DOs and DON’Ts for healthy summer skin:
DON’T Pull a sunburned Kim Kardashian
DO Shield and Protect
My favorite sunblock comes from Neutrogena. I love their products with “Helioplex” technology which guards your skin against both UVA and UVB Rays. Did you know that UVB Rays can penetrate your car’s windshield? Not only does this product protect you from getting a nasty sunburn, it can help safe guard your skin against harmful Cancer causing rays. Call me crazy but I’m in love with their Age Shield Face 110 SPF. Yep, 110 SPF. My face is as pale as a porcelain doll, but it’s sun-spot and sunburn-free!
DON’T Itch Mosquito Bites
It’s inevitable to get bit every now and again, even with bug spray. Number one rule, don’t itch!
DO Treat Bites
Treat bites by cooling the skin with an ice pack. If the pain or itching persists, try a topical soothing ointment like Burt’s Bees Bug Bite Relief
Have fun in the sun, but be safe!
