Prep your skin with this essential serum, pop the berries and chocolate in your purse, and you’ll be ready to enjoy longer sunlight and warmer weather!

1 - Cleanse and tone

The first step in prepping your skin to receive the nutrients and benefits of a serum is to cleanse and tone. While cleansers remove the first layer of makeup or the effects of sleep, toners come in as a second wave of cleansing and also has the opportunity to pump the skin full of what it needs - antioxidants included! In the drying months ahead, quench your skin’s summer thirst with Hydrating Gel Cleanser followed by antioxidant-rich Conditioning Mist. You’ll want to wait in between each application, giving your skin time to absorb the tonic and having it return to a semi-dry state before moving forward.

2 - Apply Vitamin C serum

Vitamin C protects the skin from free radicals, which disrupt collagen production and other oxidizing agents. Working actively to protect the skin from UV radiation damage, topically-applied Vitamin C can also improve skin’s elasticity. Along with Vitamin C, Daily Power C serum contains antioxidants to provide environmental protection. Overall, your skin will feel summer-ready and your cells will thank you.

3 - Apply SPF

For light coverage that protects your skin, glo’s got you covered. Finding products that will protect your skin after all the work you just put in is easy with glo, who follows you as you prep your skin for makeup all the way to the final touches. The lightweight formula of the Moisturizing Tint SPF 30+ will give you the coverage you need both inside and out; protecting your skin from harmful UVA/UVB rays and providing a light, oil-free sheer hint of coverage. Using SPF as a base in the summer both on your face and body will keep your skin safe - don’t be afraid to apply it multiple times in the day, especially if you’re out in the sun.
