"As we approach fall, we need to start undoing some of the damage that we did enjoying our fun the sun," says Cheryl Kramer Kaye, Beauty Director of Shape. Get ready to say bye bye to lizard skin and haystack hair with her favorite must-haves.

To soothe and soften dry skin...alternate using a body scrub and a hydrating body wash in your morning shower. "Exposure to the sun can make your skin try to defend itself and it gets a little bit thicker. That makes it hard for moisturizers to penetrate and causes dry skin. The easiest way to exfoliate and rehydrate is in the shower," she explains. "First, I start off with the Caress Evenly Gorgeous Body Wash, which uses round beads to gently exfoliate and get to the more even toned skin underneath and the Burnt Brown Sugar scent is delicious," she reveals. "Then on alternating days, I go for the Caress Daily Silk Silkening Body Wash that has a special formulation of moisturizers which really get your skin super soft and is scented with White Peach and Orange Blossom. It's a really pampering experience," she says.

To deep clean your pores...try a clay mask. "Your pores can really suffer during the summer because you're piling on the sunscreen, running around and sweating--they can get crazy clogged!" cautions Kramer Kaye. "That's why a mask is a must," she says. Her pick: Purity of Elements Pore Minimizing Clay Mask. "It has kaolin clay, which pulls impurities out from deep within your pores. And they paired that with their proprietary Copper 5 Complex that's infused throughout their skincare line. It is loaded with antioxidants that are going to repair and rehydrate your skin," she says.

To revitalize scorched hair..."The chlorine, the saltwater, the UV rays--they can totally trash your hair. But, you can repair it in one treatment with Goldwell DualSenses Rich Repair collection. It contains a lipid complex that repairs hair from the inside out and mends surface damage. Plus, it has pashmina silk proteins which leave hair smooth and shiny," she says. The collection contains a shampoo, conditioner, 60- second treatment, thermal protectant and a serum. To purchase the products, find a Goldwell salon here.
