While everyone loves having fun in the sun during the summer, it's important to remember to protect yourself against the elements--sun exposure, salt water and dry heat. While everyone knows to use sunscreen religoiusly on the face and body, don't forget about protecting your hair and the sensitive skin on your lips. Here, OK! Magazine Style Director Pandora Amoratis shares her summer protection essentials.
To protect your hair...
Whether you want to rock beachy waves or sexy braids, the key to a gorgeous summer hairstyle is all about starting with healthy hair. "You need a foundation of healthy, hydrated hair. Use a moisturizing conditioner to treat and protect your hair from dry heat, sea salt and sun exposure, all of which make hair feel dry, frizzy and unruly," says Amoratis. Her pick: Pantene Daily Moisture Renewal Collection. "It is your new best friend for beautiful locks. The conditioning formula keeps hair looking shiny, soft and protected from damage throughout the season," she says. Along with using the daily shampoo and conditioner, show your locks some extra TLC with a weekly dose of the Pantene Daily Moisture Renewal Intensely Hydrated Masque, $7.99. "It penetrates into hair for intense moisture and protection against damages. It's great after a week of fun in the sun," she explains.
To protect your lips...
The perfect summer lip balm: Carmex Lip Balm Sticks, $1.59 each. "They have SPF 15 and the seal of recommendation from the Skin Cancer Foundation--a must for summer," says Amoratis. "They help protect your lips against UVA and UVB rays, decrease the risk of skin cancer and help prevent early skin aging caused by the sun," she explains. The nourishing formulas contain a unique blend of soothing and hydrating ingredients that seal in moisture on the surface so your lips so they stay soft and supple all day. "They come in original, cherry and strawberry," she adds. Sounds delish!
