It’s that time of the year where the weather is getting warmer and the days are getting longer. It seems as if summer has been a long time coming this year, with La Niña dampening our plans over the last few months.
Thankfully, the sun has finally come out to play right in time for the holidays. As you hit the beach and ride the waves, it’s important to keep your skin in check, and as much as we all love the warmer months, it’s important to stay protected and hydrated.
The sun (especially in Australia) can wreak havoc on our skin. From dryness to getting sunburnt, it’s crucial our skincare routine is jam packed with soothing and calming products.
From moisturisers to sunscreens, here is everything that should be in your skincare arsenal this season.
