Summer is around the corner again. It’s just the second week of February yet it is sooo hot. I heard from the news that we are experiencing the “El Nino” phenomenon again – aka heat waves. The heat really is scorching making me feel like a vampire under sunlight.

During these times, the heat can cause problems especially in the skin. This is why we must always protect our skin from the harmful rays of the sun. Here are some of the tips I learned from good friends of mine:

  • Always drink plenty of fluids. This is important in order to prevent our skin from drying up.
  • No matter what others may say… use an umbrella when walking under the sun especially during noon.
  • Apply sunblock or day cream but please do this after taking a bath.
  • Lastly, air-conditioning further dries up the skin so it is necessary to apply moisturizers once in a while.
  • Oh and don’t forget to take vitamin C and E for glowing skin.
