Beat the Summer Heat with Natural Products

Quench, drench and Hydrate

You are most likely tired of hearing how invaluable water is for your body. The truth is, good old H2O cannot be beaten. Not only is it fantastic for your body, as it cleanses your system, but the impact on hydrating your skin and hair from the inside out is crucial. Turning up your air conditioner actually reduces humidity levels and can dehydrate the skin. A humidifier could help. Or you could try our Dome Wave Atomiser which uses Ultrasonic waves to instantly vaporise water and essential oil in the tank, to produce a cool, dry fragrant mist. Ideal for when you want to rest and relax in perfect harmony.  

By upping your water intake, you will notice a remarkable glow to your skin, and your hair will thrive as well, so don’t forget to add one of our awesome hair oils to your skin routine. From our strong growth options, to solid roots hair butter and hair food, your hair will remain healthy and resist the dry effects of the Summer Sun!

Remember the Sunscreen

As hard as one may try, you cannot completely avoid the sun. Whilst it is important to gift your body of free Vitamin D from the sun, according to the Vitamin D Council, you should follow these guidelines when exposing your skin:

·         15 minutes for a person with light skin

·         a couple of hours for a person with darker skin

Direct sunlight on the skin can cause sunburn, pigmentation and dark spots, and it is for this reason that it is a great idea to protect your skin, all while absorbing that important Vitamin D. You can do this by making use of BWG Botanics’ Super Solo Sun Cream, our luxury sun cream infused with carrot-seed, peppermint and raspberry seed. Suitable for sensitive skin, you’ll notice the difference with our natural products. If for some reason you’ve been exposed to a little too many sun rays, our Sunburn Saviour Spray will save the day!

Follow a good skin care routine

During the warmer summer months, our pores tend to enlarge as a means for the skin to breathe easier. This does however result in excessive sweat and clogging of the pores, which could lead to blackheads and breakouts. A simple cleanse, tone and moisturise routine may seem basic, but it’s probably one of the most effective ways to look after your skin. BWG Botanics offers an extensive range of skincare products specifically designed to nourish your skin naturally. Without any parabens or harmful chemicals, our products are non-irritating and are safer for the environment.
