Be The Best Hostess This Summer with these Skincare Essentials!

Hosting guests for the weekend— both friends and family— is a lot of work, but there is no better time of the year than summer to make yourself the hostess! Make sure you have all your guests’ skincare need on hand with the help of Curél, Bioré, LAVANILA IMAGE Skincare and KORRES.

Bathroom Essentials:

Stock the shower for your guests with Curél Hydra Therapy Wet Skin Moisturizer. The wet skin moisturizer will keep your skin looking and feeling healthy and hydrated for summer. The moisturizer is activated by water on freshly-showered skin and penetrates deeply into the skin’s surface to heal dryness for soft, healthy skin you can only imagine. After showering, your pores are open, providing an easy pathway for moisture to absorb into just-showered skin. ($10.99; available at all mass retailers & drug stores nation-wide.)

No need for your guests to worry about sunscreen, dirt and oil clogging their pores when you have Bioré Deep Cleansing Pore Strips in the house. The pore strips instantly lift dirt and oil from your pores, resulting in minimization of the pores—exactly what you need to look your best. The strips are made with selective bonding ingredients and work like a magnet by instantly locking onto and removing deep-down dirt that can cause blackheads. When used weekly, you will have fewer clogged pores and the appearance of pores will actually diminish. ($6.49; available at all mass retailers & drug stores nation-wide.)

Get your bathroom #shelfie ready with LAVANILA The Healthy Fragrances. LAVANILA fragrances stand out among others because they are made by hand with all-natural and organic ingredients from all over the world. Unlike traditional perfumes made of harsh chemicals that can damage and irritate the skin and senses, LAVANILA uniquely infuses organic sugar cane alcohol with exotic essential oils and skin pampering botanicals for 100% healthy, gorgeous and authentic expression of nature. Some scents featured in the collection include Pure Vanilla, Vanilla Grapefruit and Vanilla Coconut. ($48 each; Sephora.com.)

Beach Bag Essentials:

Protect your guests from the sun’s harsh rays with IMAGE Skincare PREVENTION+ daily ultimate protection moisturizer SPF 50. The high-level sunscreen offers effective protection against damaging UV rays. The SPF is an ideal choice for sports, outdoor activities and high sun exposure, yet gentle enough for post-procedure skin. It contains SPF 50 along with a blend of plant stem cells and potent antioxidants to protect skin against the effects of free radical damage caused by environmental exposure. ($39; IMAGESkincare.com.)

Just in case your guests spend too much time in the sun, stock up on KORRES Greek Yoghurt After-Sun Cooling Gel. The cooling gel should be applied to sun kissed skin for immediate comfort following exposure to the sun—allowing you to avoid the repercussions of a painful sunburn. The ultra-cooling cream gel provides long-lasting freshness and comfort to the face and body. The nourishing Greek Yoghurt hydrates the skin, instantly relieving excessive heat and stinging, while the Cooling Gel helps to reduce skin redness and prolong suntan. For maximum cooling effect, keep refrigerated. ($26; Sephora.com.)

Until next time...
