4th of July Essentials

Fourth of July is the perfect time to gather with friends and family and celebrate America’s adoption of the Declaration of Independence in 1776. The day is often associated with lake days, parades, firework shows, beach trips and other activities that allow us to spend the day outdoors. That’s why we’re dishing our favorite COSMEDIX products and snack ideas to make prepping for this day a breeze!

Skincare Essentials

With scorching temperatures, sun exposure and water activities, it’s important to have your favorite skincare items on hand for reapplication. Here’s what we recommend for keeping skin refreshed, hydrated and protected when outdoors.

Protect your skin against age-accelerating free radicals and future sun damage with the help of this dual-action daily SPF 17 and moisturizer. The lightweight formula is suitable for all skin types and works to improve elasticity and loss of radiance, ensuring skin stays hydrated and protected from outdoor elements.

Restore
There’s nothing better than adding a facial mask to your nighttime routine after a day in the sun. Restore, a Moisture-Rich Mask, restores skin to optimal health by providing vital moisture with key hydration retention ingredients.

 

Food + Beverage Essentials

No celebration can go without proper food and drinks, so stock up on these nutrient-rich snacks that will help fuel your body and promote overall skin health.

Infused Water
We all know the endless benefits of drinking water but throw in a few slices of lemon and lime for fresh and zesty take on traditional water.Lemons act as a natural detox and the limeis rich in Vitamin C, which works as an antioxidant and fights against harmful free radicals.

 

Apple Tray

Apples are the perfect easy-to-grab snack that has additional benefits for healthy, glowing skin. Apples are rich in nutrients, like Vitamins C and A to promote skin health from the inside.  Simply cut up your favorite apples and keep them on display for family and friends.

 

Chia Pudding
Chia seeds are all the rage and making it into a pudding is the perfect breakfast option before heading out for Fourth of July festivities. Chia seeds are rich in omega-3 fatty acids and have anti-inflammatory properties that will help promote a clearer and calmer-looking complexion.

 

Berry Bowls
Throw an assortment of strawberries, raspberries, blueberries and blackberries into a bowl and you’ll have a quick and easy dish that’s jam-packed with skin-clearing antioxidants. Not only are berries tasty, but according to a 2009 study by the Federation of American Societies for Experimental Biology, berries help protect skin from harmful UV rays, as well.

The Many Ways to Use Mystic

There are usually a number of skin issues that we come across to keep it healthy, glowing and breakout free. Finding a skincare product that can be used for more than one skin issue can be difficult but there is a product that adds ultra-moisturization and primes your skin: Mystic.

Mystic Hydrating Treatment is one of the most versatile skincare products in the COSMEDIX family and we want to remind you of how you can use it in various ways for cleansing or just for a refreshing skin pick-me-up. It not only helps keep your skin happy by helping you keep blemishes away and hydration high for a clear and younger-looking complexion.

Mystic has so many uses and offers so many benefits to your skin that it can be used for so many reasons. Before you head out for your day, always apply a moisturizer that will keep your skin hydrated and protected from environmental stressors and free radical damage that add years to your skin. As a standalone moisturizer, Mystic refreshes and protects for the time you spend out and about living a healthy life. Wearing Mystic underneath your makeup as a setting spray helps keep your look in place all day or night by preventing moisture loss so your skin stays hydrated.

After your visits to the gym, Mystic not only refreshes your face but it’s equally as great as a body spritzer. Just a few spritzes can keep you fresh for a few hours before you hit the showers. The formula for Mystic includes the cleansing power of Witch Hazel which makes it a cleansing and effective toner that gives your skin a glow that lasts for hours at a time. Conditioning moisturizers help attract and retain the moisture you need in your skin.

Another fun tip to adding Mystic to your skincare routine in these hot summer months is to refrigerate the bottle for a blast of cool mist with every spray!
