How to: Keep Your Summer Glow Through Fall

Invariably, despite the piles of sunscreen I slather on daily, every summer I get a bit of a tan.  This summer due to a few beach excursions, I got a serious tan.  I’m not complaining — I love the glow that comes from a from a little sun exposure.  But when fall comes that glow tends to fade, and that process can be pretty nasty if you don’t have the proper tools for transitioning your summer glow to fall.

How to keep your summer glow:

1.  Exfoliate

Keep your skin tone even with regular exfoliation.  I use both chemical (retinol) and physical (scrub) exfoliants.

Try: YBF  Prep Microdermabrasion

Microdermabrasion crystals polish, skin brightening alpha arbutin and niacin help balance uneven pigmentation.

2.  Fake your glow

Use a tinted moisturizer instead of foundation.  You have the triple-duty benefit of color, moisture and SPF
