Your Post-Summer Beauty Plan!


Dried-out strands? Freckly skin? Rough Feet? Fix all your September challenges with these easy moves.

Repair Your Strands: Use a moisturizing treatment, like a hair restoration masque, weekly. Apply to damp strands, then cover hair with plastic wrap to lock in heat so ingredients better penetrate your hair.

Freshen Your Face: Spending too much time in the sun can cause uneven skin tone and texture. The fix? Wash with a cleanser that has fruit acids, which gently dissolve dulling dead skin cells.

Fade Chest Freckles: Even infrequent sun exposure can cause dark spots on your neck and décolletage. To minimize them, dot on a treatment that contains skin-brightening soy or redness-reducing licorice.

Soften Parched Skin: Nurture dry and dehydrated summer skin by applying a body lotion packed with antioxidants, which repair free radical damage caused by the sun's rays.

Save Sandal Tortured Feet: A summer in flip-flops does a number on your feet. Solution: Use a rich foot lotion with glycolic acid to help dissolve thick calluses and moisturize dry heels.
