Do you want to keep your skin looking and feeling nice for the upcoming summer months? If so, here is a guide on how to keep your skin healthy.

The first thing you should do each day is take a shower. This gets rid of any bacteria or germs that are on your body. Certain bacteria can lead to skin infection and / or acne.

After showering, apply lotion to your skin. Keeping it moisturized helps your skin from drying out and cracking. Read labels to make sure your soaps and lotions don’ t contain harmful chemicals such as parabens that can lead to an increased risk of cancer.

Once you’ re done moisturizing, go outside and get some sun. Sunshine is a good source of Vitamin D which is great for your skin. Just make sure when you’ re outside you keep your skin protected.

There are multiple ways to keep your skin protected from the harmful UV rays of the sun. There are obvious things like seeking shade or wearing protective clothing( hats, long sleeve shirts, glasses, etc.). You can also apply sunblock. Some popular skin care brands like Aveeno, Banana Boat, Neutrogena, and Coppertone sell products with a high SPF.

When you’ re done with your daily activities it’ s important to cleanse your skin to prevent any buildup of dirt or bacteria. You can use soap and warm water or a special face wash. If you want to get lotions, cleansers, or soaps that are natural and do not contain harmful chemicals, Burt’ s Bees is a good choice. Neutrogena and Gold Bond are also inexpensive moisturizers that you can use.

Remember, the skin is the largest organ on your body, so it’ s important to take care of it!

Have you ever wanted to dress like your favorite celebrity? If so, you are not alone. Celebrities such as Elvis Presley and Michael Jackson have made significant impacts on our society’ s fashion choices. I’ m going to give you a few tips on how to copy popular celebrities, Alex Turner, and Taylor Swift’ s style. Alex Turner is the lead singer of a band called Arctic Monkeys, and Taylor Swift is a very popular pop artist. Both are known for their style. With my help, you can be too.

Coming onto the scene in 2005 with the Arctic Monkeys’ first album,“ Whatever You Say I Am, That’ s What I’ m Not,” Turner’ s style was mainly just jeans and t-shirts at first, but as his musical career progressed he developed into a stylish, bold performer. From his perfectly coiffed hair to his stylish leather jacket, he always seems to be dressed very fashionably.

To imitate his classy style, make sure you are always dressed appropriately for the situation. During appearances and performances, he wears a classier suit or dress shirt. Replicate this by investing in a nice blazer or suit jacket that can be warn with jeans or dress pants.

For Turner’ s relaxed look, wear a nice, clean t-shirt with a leather jacket and jeans. How you dress greatly determines how people perceive you, which I feel Alex Turner has learned over his musical career. If you wanted to be taken seriously in any business, you have to dress the part.

Another celebrity with great fashion is singer Taylor Swift. Whether she’ s on stage performing in front of millions or just walking around the streets of New York, she always looks sharp. The main reason for her fashion success is her ability to blend colors. Swift takes bright and

vibrant colors and incorporates them into outfits that really allow them to stand out.

My advice would be to think outside of the box when trying to dress like her. Take brighter colors that you usually wouldn’ t experiment with and try them out. When trying to dress like this star, make sure to try new things and keep an open mind.

Both Alex Turner and Taylor Swift are great examples of how to dress well. One thing they both have in common is that their styles have changed over time and evolved into their signature looks.

With any celebrity, use their styles as a guide to what looks good, and expand upon them to develop your own style. By following these strong examples, you’ ll be looking like a star in no time!

Stay happy and healthy throughout summer.

Don’ t stay in the house all day. Catch up with friends from school. Go to the library, the park, or the movies, anything to get out of the house!
