For a change, our heart is not the only thing on fire 'cause this sun is sucking the life out of our skin and hair. We are heading into peak summer season, when the sun's burning bright and our body feels a little too on the low-low (both externally and internally). We asked the crew what beauty products they are enjoying using to offer some respite and here's what they shared!

Be Bodywise Body Sunscreen Spray SPF 50 PA+++
₹499

Word for the wise, make SPF your best friend for life. I absolutely loved using this sunscreen spray from Be Bodywise which offers SPF 50 PA+++ protection on-the-go. Anytime I feel that pulsating urge to avoid the sun because I do not want to get tanned, I grab this sunscreen spray and spray my arms and back luxuriously for solid protection. Also, since it's so lightweight, it makes reapplication a breeze.

Wishcare Tinted Ceramide Lip Balm with SPF50 PA+++
₹299

Hands down the best lip balm with SPF on the market! The Wishcare Tinted Ceramide Lip Balm is one of those matte lip balms that actually stays on the lips and keeps them moisturised while protecting from the sun. The kojic acid present in it does actually help heal darkened lips with regular use. And since it's tinted, it leaves a wash of colour, perfect for everyday use.

Uriage Thermal Water Toner Spray
₹550
Shop On
You absolutely need a good thermal water spray to rejuvenate your skin (and senses) when out and about in the sun. This one from Uriage soothes sensitive skin with its high content of calcium and magnesium salts and is awesome for calming agitated skin. Any time I feel that burning sensation on my skin from the heat, I simply spritz this on, and let it work its magic.

L'Oreal Professionnel Vitamino Color Shampoo & Hair Mask
₹1780

I got my hair coloured a few months ago and my hairstylist suggested I use this L’Oreal shampoo and conditioner combo — and boy, was he right! My hair had the subtlest shine just after the first wash. The shampoo provides a gentle cleanse and can be used after oiling too, but the star of the combo is the mask! On most days, I don’t use it the usual way. Instead of applying it post-shampoo on towel-dried hair, I put it on like a mask 20-30 minutes before a hair wash and it works like magic.

Olaplex No. 7 Bonding Oil
₹3300

I’ve been using this little magic potion and cannot stop recommending it! I use it in multiple ways and for every hair issue —it’s that good. Just take a few drops and apply on your hair from mid length to ends if split ends are a common problem or you want to grow your hair. It also doubles as a heat protectant, so I would definitely suggest using it before any heat styling. While it is a bit on the pricier side, a 30 ml bottle will easily last you 2-3 months (or more), so you can totally justify the cost with girl math.

The Skin Diet Company Lip Barrier Butter
₹649
Shop On
The Skin Diet Company's butter barrier tinted lip balm is my definition of care that is also gorgeous in all the right amounts. Available in three shades, I love the Cherry Frost shade that smells heavenly. Additionally, it is not very pigmented so you can use it as a gloss coat over your lipstick. I usually wear it just as, perfect for quick grocery runs or a general 'no makeup' makeup glow. It has a non sticky texture, helps with barrier repair, and is smooth like butter!

Dot & Key Vitamin C + E Face Sunscreen SPF 50 PA+++
₹445

Ever since I started my laser hair removal sessions, my usage (and respect) for sunscreen has doubled. And since I’m super picky about what goes on my face, Dot & Key is something I truly rely on. It’s been consistently kind to my sensitive skin, and the SPF50+ PA+++ gives me all-round protection, always.

Chemist at Play 5% AHA Underarm Roll On
₹399
Shop On
We all know how waxing, shaving, and sun exposure can darken already naturally-pigmented underarms, and how torturous wearing sleeveless tops becomes during that time. But ever since I started using Chemist At Play’s underarm roll-on, the visible results have actually restored my faith in humanity. It smells amazing (so much that you might skip perfume altogether) and has really helped with exfoliation.

LoveChild Masaba Pocket Lipstick Buffet Combo
₹999
Shop On
I have a special penchant for pocket lipsticks, and this combo by LoveChild Masaba is an addictive pick for me. The three shades differ from each other's colour palette, so it's like getting three different looks for the price of one. With severe summer struggles on the horizon, these intensely pigmented pocket lipsticks come with cocoa butter, jojoba oil, and vitamin E to nourish, hydrate, and lock in moisture, while of course, glamming you up.
