Don’t forget to put your sunscreen in your daily makeup routine. Some sunscreen lotions are there which contain antioxidants to boost your skin health with everyday use. Opt for lip balms rather than lip-gloss or lip colors since they help in keeping the moisture intact. While purchasing lip colors or lipsticks, look for SPF in it, at least 15! Get a sun-kissed glow with the application of self-tanners. If your skincare budget is higher, a salon visit can be worthy enough. Apply the sunscreen just 15-20 minutes before you go out. Choose the sunscreen sprays to avoid that sticky feeling throughout the day. Stay covered and protected with a pair of smart sunglasses, scarf and don’t forget to re-apply the sunscreen in every 2-3 hours.
