Vacations out of the country leave you with plenty to worry about, but the last thing that you need to concern yourself with is how to take care of your health and your skin while you should be relaxing. Beach vacations have lots of extra perks that can leave your skin exfoliated and fresh, but only if you take the proper precautions. Walks in the sand will exfoliate your feet, and the salty sea air will keep your skin full of moisture.
The number one rule to any sunshine vacation is to remember to stay hydrated! Drinking plenty of extra water will compensate for the extended time in the sun, and of course, for all the happy beach drinks! Staying hydrated will help keep your energy levels up, and will keep your skin and lips from drying out and cracking.
We all know that the other most important thing we can do to keep ourselves healthy is to wear sunscreen! Reapplying every two hours is essential, even when wearing water resistant sunscreens. Dr. Wright’s Oil-Free, Chemical-Free Matte Finish SPF 30 is ideal for beach vacations because the high amount of micronized zinc content and because it reflects the sun and blocks the rays completely.
Happy Vacationing!
