Did you ever forget sunscreen? What about your cool sunglasses while it was super sunny outside? Here are some essentials that you should get out for the summer months to come!
Well, for me, I think the most important thing for summer is SUNSCREEN! I kind of have a thing with always slathering on sunscreen 24/7... It's not a problem, trust me -_-. Anyways, without it, well, first of all, you'll end up with a TERRIBLE SUNBURN. You'll be very red, and then you'll have skin peeling off and it'll hurt when you touch your skin! Well, that's what happens to me anyways. You have a big risk of skin cancer. For those who are scared of showing signs of aging, if you don't wear sunscreen, you'll look a lot more older. There are two kinds of sunscreen: chemical sunscreen and physical sunscreen. I'm not sure which is better, but physical sunscreen leaves you with a whiter shade, and chemical sunscreen doesn't. I use chemical sunscreen on my face and physical sunscreen on the rest of my body.
You should get really good sunglasses. The sun can be very dangerous to the eyes. It can cause you permanent eye damage. Investing in good sunglasses can really be helpful to you in the near future. I suggest choosing really good glasses instead of fashionable ones first. There might be one pair that you absolutely adore, but they don't work at all. Choose a pair that you think looks pretty cool but that work.
This is mostly to girls, but I guess boys can do it too. Use oil blotting sheets. During the summertime, it gets really really hot. And when it's hot, there's this "weird water" called sweat that seeps out of our skin. It makes us look shiny, greasy, dirty, stinky, it's all negative. Especially when it's on our face, it makes us feel super dirty! Oil blotting sheets come in handy because they absorb the excess oil from your face so your face doesn't look like fries can fry on it. Most packs of blotting sheets are small, convenient enough to store them in your purse, gym bag, backpack, wherever. Some of them have an ingredient that also helps you reduce acne. It's like a 2 in 1!
This also might be more for girls, but like I said, boys can help themselves with this. I hope that everyone uses this during summer, and it's DEODORANT. I swear, if you don't wear deodorant, there's a 98.9% that your B.O will take over and start repelling people from coming near you! There are different types of deodorants, but the one I would recommend is the antiperspirant one! It reduces sweating, even though it may leave stains on your shirts, but nothing a little lemon, bleach or baking soda can't fix, right? I also recommend a deodorant that has a nice scent to it. Carry a travel size deodorant wherever you go just in case you might... smell.
Water is also very very very important!! Without water you will become dehydrated and a bunch of bad things will happen! Always carry a water bottle with you! Because of the heat of the sun, it will get hotter and you'll sweat more. And because you sweat more, fluids get out of your body, therefore making you want and need more fluids in your system. Water is the best thing.
Those were just some summer essentials! If you have a summer essential you can't live without during those hot weeks, leave a comment on this post! I'd like to know! Have a great night!
Keep Smiling,
