Update your moisturizer
Swap out rich and heavy creams for light textures and gel formulas. They’ll add hydration and radiance without feeling heavy.
Hydro Boost Gel Cream, $25, Neutrogena.
Spritz a new scent
A soft pretty fragrance is guaranteed to lighten your mood. Look for fresh florals and fruity notes like grapefruit, cherry blossom and peony.
Issey Miyake L’Eau d’Issey Summer Eau de Toilette, 100ml $78, Sephora.
Renew your shampoo
Change your haircare routine to help keep your locks glossy and healthy. A new season (more sun, heat and humidity) signals the perfect time to switch things up.
Green Earth Daily Care Shampoo, $6, Live Clean.
Check your SPF
Longer days mean more hours of fun in the sun but also more exposure to UVA/UVB rays. Protect yourself and help prevent premature aging by switching to a BB cream or moisturizer with broad-spectrum suncare protection.
Urban Environment Tinted UV Protector SPF 43, $35, Shiseido.
