Wanting glowy summer skin is a no-brainer. But how do you achieve it? Here are my top tips to keep your skin healthy and glowing all summer long.

1. **Find a Skincare Routine That Works for You**: This might be the most challenging point on the list because everyone's skin is different, and there's no one-size-fits-all solution. There are multiple steps in a skincare routine that can target different issues and achieve specific results. I found my skincare routine through trial and error and with the help of dermatologists, estheticians, and recommendations from family and friends. However, I'll still share my routine in hopes that it'll help some of you. I have dry-combo-sensitive skin, so I double cleanse only in the evening with the Makeup Remover Cleansing Balm from Farmacy and a Gentle Cleanser from Vanicream (substituting with Neocutis Exfoliating Cleanser two days a week). After my face is dry, I follow up with a face spray, Retinol Serum (at night, except for the days I cleanse with Neocutis), Vanicream Facial Moisturizer with Ceramides and Hyaluronic Acid, and Black Girl Sunscreen (during the day).
2. **Indulge in Quality Facials**: Every other month, I visit the esthetician for a Hydrafacial. Hydrafacials are a great way to get a deep clean for your skin while also giving it a boost of hydration. I always pair it with LED light therapy and extractions.
3. **Upgrade to a Hypoallergenic, Dermatologist-Tested Foundation Brush**: Before launching our Foundation Brush, I struggled with makeup brushes that irritated my skin and damaged my skin barrier. In fact, I stopped using makeup brushes and sponges altogether for an entire year while looking to launch only a hypoallergenic, dermatologist-tested foundation brush. Ever since upgrading to our foundation brush, I don't experience irritation, and my skin not only looks but also feels healthier than it ever did before.
4. **Upgrade to Non-Comedogenic Base Products Like The Golden Touch Foundation**: Investing in quality base products is crucial for skin health. It's the first product that comes in contact with your skin. That's why we took 2.5 years to create this satin-matte silicone formula that's non-comedogenic and sensitive skin friendly.

These four upgrades to my routine have significantly improved my skin health and given me the glowy summer skin I have always wanted.
