PROTECT & GLOW WITH SKINGREDIENTS
It’s important to apply sunscreen all year round, but it’s even more important to use it in summer to protect your skin from the sun’s UV rays. The Skin Shield Moisturising + Priming SPF50 PA+++ from Skingredients is great not just for protecting your skin, but it also acts as a glowy primer for your makeup and brightens dull skin.
How to use this summer skincare hero:
- Use it as the final step of your daytime skincare routine
- Apply half a teaspoon of the SPF to provide you with sufficient protection
- Gently massage it onto your skin and don’t forget to apply it on your neck and your ears
What the LiB Beauty Team and Sarah Jossel have to say:
This is the ultimate skin-prep step for summer.
“The most lovely universal peachy tint; it works like a glowy primer that brightens any dullness AND it’s SPF 50- it doesn’t get any better” – Sarah Jossel
FRESHER-LOOKING SKIN WITH THE BODY SHOP
Summer is all about flaunting a fresh-faced, healthy-looking glow. The summer heat can cause your skin to feel dry or flaky, especially if you plan to spend plenty of time outdoors. When the skin craves for hydration and moisture, adding a lightweight yet hydrating serum to your daily routine like The Body Shop’s Drops of Youth Concentrate can help keep your skin hydrated with a side of glow. It also protects your skin against pollution, making it ideal for those living in cities.
How to use this summer skincare hero:
- After cleansing your skin, apply 2-3 drops of the serum to your face and neck
- Gently massage it into the skin and let it sink in
- Lock in the hydration with your moisturiser
What the LiB Beauty Team has to say:
Day or night, this daily serum helps keep your skin looking fresh, healthy and rejuvenated, which is just what you need for summer.
BRIGHTER EYES WITH AVANT
A bright eye area can help make your complexion look even more radiant. To brighten and depuff your under eye area, Avant has the perfect product. Their Brightening & De-Puffing Hyaluronic Overnight Eye Recovery Mask combines hyaluronic acid, shea butter and pullulan that work together to intensely hydrate and illuminate your eye area while also decongesting puffy eyes.
How to use this summer skincare hero:
- Using a light tapping motion, apply the eye mask with your ring finger
- Apply it to the inner corners of your eyes and make your way to the outer corners
- Gently pat to let it fully absorb into the skin
What the LiB Beauty Team has to say:
This eye recovery mask truly does all the work for you. Hydrates and brightens your eye area? Check. Depuffs? Check. Helps firm skin? Check.
REJUVENATE SUMMER SKIN WITH NUXE
To ensure your complexion stays fresh and glowing throughout summer, incorporating a face mask to your daily skincare routine is essential. With the Very Rose Ultra-Fresh Cleansing Gel Mask from NUXE, this soothing gel mask effectively gets rid of all impurities, leaving your skin fresh and hydrated.
How to use this summer skincare hero:
- Use it in your morning or evening routine
- Apply it on damp skin, avoiding the eye area
- Leave the mask on for 1 minute then gently massage to remove impurities
- Rinse thoroughly and follow with the next step of your routine
What the LiB Beauty Team has to say:
Its delicate rose scent and luxurious texture gives you a sensorial experience. It’s the perfect, lightweight mask to use during the hot summer months.
