ORANGE's Summer Beauty Essentials

ORANGE Magazine May 1, 2015

The warm summer sun signals a time to reinvent yourself, your style and your beauty.

Unfortunately, the sun can bring about damaged hair, skin and nails. If you’re lounging by the pool at your apartment complex or hiking through Palo Duro Canyon State Park, make the most of your summer beauty routine. Add these simple yet effective products to your everyday lineup to stay looking beautifully healthy during the heat of the summer.

Keeping your skin, hair and nails healthy is key to an effortless summer look. Keep it simple when it comes to makeup this summer and instead let your natural beauty take over.
