Summer can take its toll on our skin and hair, with our tans slowly fading and our skin feeling dry from air conditioning, chlorine and too much sun – it’s time to get back your glow.
Sitting in air-conditioned rooms and planes absorbs the skins natural moisture leaving it feeling dry and parched and it can be particularly detrimental to those who have skin conditions such as eczema, rosacea or psoriasis. However, giving your skin a little TLC with some carefully selected skin saviors will bring your complexion back from the brink, leaving it looking healthy and glowing again.
Products enriched with natural moisturising ingredients contain vital nutrients and moisture the skin needs for optimum health and radiance.

Get chlorine damage under control by looking after your locks with the SheaMoisture Superfruit Complex 10-in-1 Multi-benefit Shampoo & Conditioner, £10.99 each, Boots - a sulphate-free way to cleanse away chlorine and the added antioxidants will renew vibrancy too.
