Summer Skincare 101
Hawaiian Tropic Silk Hydration SPF 50, $10.99
Protect your skin with a hydrating sunscreen. Hawaiian Tropic is known for a delicious tropical scent in their sunscreens. This new product is less greasy than the original, and is perfect to use as an everyday moisturizer with sun protection.
Josie Maran Argan Tinted Moisturizer SPF 30, $38
Upgrade the SPF in your makeup with a tinted face moisturizer. It provides skin perfecting coverage as well as SPF 30, which is higher than most cosmetic sunscreens. I love that Josie Maran makes all of her products with Argan oil, one of the best natural moisturizing ingredients.
Doctor T’s Supergoop SPF 30, $8.50
Don’t forget about your lips! Lip products often don’t have a high SPF, yet our lips have the thinnest skin on our body. Supergoop’s lip balms smell incredible and are super moisturizing, perfect for a day at the beach.
Living Proof Restore Revitalizing Spray with heat and UV protection, $26
Your hair can fall victim to sun damage as well. The latest line to come from Living Proof’s labs helps repair dry and damaged hair while keeping it looking smooth and gorgeous. This conditioning spray protects from heat and the sun’s rays, too!
Tip: use spray on hair after a swim.
Essie Sun-e with UV protection, $15
Prevent nail polish from fading or yellowing in the sun with this top coat. No more dull summer pedicures!

Our Favorite Summer Hair Care Products
It’s no secret that getting your hair to look great in the summer can be a big challenge. Sun, sand, salt, chlorine, and humidity take a toll on our hair, and that can lead to a less-than-desirable look. In order to get those gorgeous summer locks, we put these (and so many more) products to the test and did the lathering, rinsing, and repeating for you. We might even have the cleanest hair in New York City! Read on for our favorite picks for summer hair care, including the old stand-bys as well as the hottest new products available. Tip: It is important to switch off between at least two shampoos, conditioners, and styling products to get the best results.

Pantene Pro-V Medium-Thick Hair Solutions Shampoo
