The days are getting longer and the weather is getting warmer. We can all feel that sense of positivity in the air as summer begins to roll in. Between the late nights and early mornings, there are so many events to attend to during the season that will leave you with endless memories. Question is, are you ready for a hot girl Summer? Start feeling like your best self this summer with these four tips:
- Drink tons of Water:
-
Don’t stay thirsty this summer! Make sure you have enough water to keep you hydrated throughout all your adventures. Not only is it important for your overall health but it will help your skin and hair look flawless. It’s also a great cleanse to drink lots of water if you plan on drinking this summer (if you’re over 21+). Women are sad to have to drink about 10 glasses of water every day. Are you drinking enough water?
- Wear sunscreen and moisturize
-
While being in the sun and tanning all day is tons of fun, be sure to keep applying sunscreen throughout the day. The sun can be extremely damaging to your skin and can leave you in tons of pain. Maybe you won’t get a sunburn but you then can be left with some awkward peeling that could’ve been avoided if you use sunscreen. After a nice long day at the beach, be sure to apply moisturizer or aloe vera to help maintain your tan and keep your skin looking smooth.
- Cancel the Negativity
-
Summer comes around only once a year and not for long. Kick out anyone out of your life who is causing you any distress! You don’t need to waste your summer on someone who isn’t making it better. Surround yourself with people who lift your spirits up and will help make your summer the best one yet! Don’t feel bad leaving your ex or your annoying toxic friends on do not disturb!
- Work Hard, Play Hard
-
You got to work for what you want in this life, meaning you need to work on yourself before even thinking of summertime! If that means putting in the hours at the gym to be in shape for the summer, then do it! If that means having to work extra shifts throughout the spring to pay for your trips this summer, then do it! You’re the only one that’s going to impact how your summer will turn out. It may be annoying right now and you may want to quit because you’re not thinking about the long term benefits, but all of this work will pay off in making you have the best summer ever.
Hot girl summer is a mindset! We all need to go into this summer confident and powerful. This last year has been tough and fill the turmoils for most of us. Allow this summer to be your mental health re-fresh to give you enough peace of mind to go into fall!
