As summer is getting closer and closer, the sun is always getting stronger and stronger. As a beauty guru, I value my skin and want to keep it protected and safe at all times. Especially, living in the southern part of the world, I find that it is so easy to let your skin go unprotected.
I love a good tan. There is nothing like a nice bronze finish to top that perfect summer look. However, red is not my color. Therefore, sunburn is not something I look for in fashion!
Now, your probably thinking "where are you going with this rachel?". Well, many times when I think "protect" your self from the sun and be safe, my mind automatically goes to sunscreen. But many times, we tend to forget, we need to protect our lips too! Not only is sun burnt lips unattractive, it's always very unfashionable. Not the best way to get a kiss from your summer sweat heart.
One of the easiest ways to keep your lips smooth and safe from the sun during the summer, is to use a lip balm (under your lipgloss or stick) with an spf in it. Personally, softlips are my favorite because not only do they have SPF 20, but they smell amazing and taste even better. But I know, Bert's Bees and ESO also sale lip balms with sun protectorates.
So my beauty tip for the day: Keep those lips safe!
