SUMMER FACE

It's summer. I've had a bunch of questions about my current routine for face, and so I'm breaking it down here. And here it is...this is my summer face. I'm pretty pale for me, but I keep it that way on purpose, because I'd like to keep my summer face for as long as I can have it. Because I'm no baby. And this mama wants to save face forever, or die trying. (Wish me luck as I'm currently wandering the streets of Laguna Beach today). I talked last month about protecting face with a hat and sunscreen etc, but this summer,  even more so,  I'm not ignoring daily products, in fact, I'm upping the ante. Because summer is just as harsh as winter on your skin if not more because of that hot sun, and because our kids want to be outside all day long, and that means extra attention to self care, aka, you and your face.

I've been using Tula products a few months now and my skin is thanking me. Properly cleansing my face morning and night (gently) and prepping it for a summer day is a routine I'm sticking to. Here's the breakdown.

Morning: Drink 8-12 oz water. Wash face with Tula purifying face cleanser (smells like a dream), apply Tula illuminating serum, Tula day/night cream and sunscreen! I previously mentioned the serum being my favorite Tula product to date and I think the extra moisture and balance of the skin is paramount this summer.  With Vitamin E which has antioxidants to protect the skin, citrus extracts to brighten, safflower oil to regenerate new cells, chickory root which is anti-inflammatory, and Tula's probiotic technology which protects against bacteria and restores balance, the serum is life. My skin has been glowy since I started this stuff and I'm obsessed.

I do the same routine at night, but also use their pro-glycolic resurfacing gel and swap with the illuminating serum from time to time to not use glycolic every night. I also think for me, sleeping babies means sleep for mama and plenty of water is how I restore every day. This summer I'll be dipping my toes in the water and plenty rose in my mouth, but I will be balancing it out with plenty of hydration in the body and on my face with Tula.
