Prep Yourself To Glow All Summer Long

by Sophie Newing |

Summer is on the horizon, and with it comes the promise of sunny days, beach trips, and endless outdoor adventures. To ensure you’re glowing all season long, it’s essential to prep your skin and body for the warmer months ahead. From skincare tips to tanning tricks, we (the tanning experts) have you covered!  

Exfoliate for Smooth, Radiant Skin

Exfoliation is key to achieving that summer glow. Removing dead skin cells helps your skin look fresh and will allow your Australian Gold tanning products to apply more evenly. The key is to use an Exfoliator two to three times a week. 

Pro Tip: Focus on rough areas like elbows, knees, and heels to ensure an even tan. 

Stay Hydrated, Inside and Out

Keeping your body well-hydrated is crucial for maintaining healthy, glowing skin. Whilst it might seem obvious, many people don’t realise how closely hydration levels affect their complexion.  

When your body is properly hydrated, your skin becomes plumper, clearer, and more resilient. Well-hydrated skin holds onto colour better and doesn’t shed as quickly, helping your summer glow last longer. 

Choose The Right SPF

Sun protection is a non-negotiable in the summer months. Choose an Australian Gold broad-spectrum SPF and reapply every two hours, especially if you’re swimming or sweating. 

Pro Tip: Australian Gold’s range of sunscreens not only protect your skin but also nourish it with natural ingredients like Kakadu Plum, known for its high vitamin C content. 

Don’t Forget After-Sun Care

Even with the best precautions, exposure to the sun can dehydrate your skin. After a long day outdoors, treat your skin to soothing after-sun products to replenish moisture and extend the life of your tan. 

Pro Tip: Our Hemp Nation Tan Extending moisturisers are specially designed to extend the life of your tan, these moisturisers not only lock in hydration but also help to nourish your skin with a blend of skin-loving ingredients like native Australian oils, vitamins, and antioxidants. 

Eat For The Glow

What you eat can significantly impact your skin’s appearance. Incorporate plenty of fruits and vegetables rich in antioxidants, such as berries, carrots, and leafy greens, to nourish your skin from the inside out. 

Pro Tip: Snack on watermelon for a hydrating treat packed with skin-loving vitamins. 

Keep Moving

Exercise boosts circulation, which helps deliver nutrients to your skin, giving it a healthy glow. Whether it’s a morning jog, yoga session, or a cold-water swim, staying active is great for your body and your skin. 

Smile and Shine

Nothing radiates beauty more than confidence and a genuine smile. Embrace the season, protect your skin, and glow from within.
