The post 7 Best Beauty Products to Use for Summer appeared first on iTAN.

1. Soak Up the Sunshine

Spring means warmer weather, which means it’s time to spend more time outdoors! Take advantage of the prolonged sunshine, and make sure you’re getting Vitamin D and spending as much time outside as you can!

If you’re into watersports- try your hand at jet skiing, paddle boarding or surfing! If you want something land- based, hiking and biking are great ways to exercise while still soaking up the sun.

2. Drink More Water

Stay hydrated! Water is so important to just about every part of your body. Carrying a water bottle around with you is a great way to ensure you drink the water you need to stay active and energized.

3. Host Your Friends

Springtime is friend-time! Hosting a brunch for your friends at your place is a super fun and cute way to stay connected with everyone! Add a theme or a color scheme and have everyone dress up for the occasion- bonus points if you take a lot of cute photos!

4. Start a Blog

Even if it’s only for your own viewing, starting a blog is a fun way to romanticize your life and keep yourself and others up to date with your day to day life! If you’re super proud of the meals you cook every day, start a foodie blog. If you can’t go a weekend without exploring a new place- start a travel blog! Either way, you’ll be capturing memories.

5. Refresh at iTAN

Spring cleaning isn’t just for your closet- refresh your body at iTAN! We offer a variety of Spa services that will leave you feeling like your new & improved self. Try our Hydration Station to enhance your Sun or Spray tan and promote hydration. Our FIT Bodywrap promotes detoxification, pain management and weight management.

6. Invest in a Spring Wardrobe 

Build your capsule closet! Quality pieces that never go out of style are the way to go this season, but we won’t judge if you throw in a few colorful & fun pieces too!

Here are our tips for a winter skincare routine that will keep your skin glowing and hydrated throughout the seasons:

1. Moisturize

Swap out your light and breezy moisturizer for something a little richer, thicker and more emollient. Using a thicker moisturizer in the winter months helps to combat the sort of climate that leaves your skin dull and dehydrated. The Australian Gold Hemp Nation Original After Care Lotion has an ultimate moisturizing trio of shea butter, jojoba and glycerin that work together to hydrate and lock-in moisture to the skin (available at iTAN for $25). The perfect skincare product any time of the year!

2. Hydration

Your skin naturally becomes drier and more sensitive with colder weather and exposure to central heating. To maintain a beautiful glow, use a gentle, hydrating cleanser rather than harsh exfoliants. The Hydration Station is one of our favorite Spa services that promotes hydration using vitamin infused steam to soothe and nourish the skin.

 3. SPF

Yes, you still need it! Although the days are shorter and we’re experiencing less sun, it doesn’t mean we don’t need to continue to protect our skin. Enjoy the outdoors with confidence when you give your skin the unsurpassed protection and bronze tones of Australian Gold sunscreens like the AG SPF 30 Spray Gel (available at iTAN for $10.99). Don’t forget about your lips! The Designer Skin Lip Smoothie SPF 15 Lip Balm helps prevent overexposure and temporarily protects dry, chapped or windburned lips (available at iTAN for $3.99).

 4. Diet

With a direct connection between your gut and skin health, it’s important we focus on our diet and its effects on our skin. Fresh fruits and veggies can be a delicious snack and are packed with hydration your system needs; plus vitamins and nutrients. Water also helps your skin retain its elasticity, which means it can help fight the signs of aging!

 5. Nighttime Routine

One of the worst things we can do for our skin is fall asleep before washing away any makeup and build-up throughout the day. Using a serum and moisturizer after cleansing your face helps to ensure healthy, beautiful skin come morning.

Following these skincare steps will have you looking and feeling confident, #iTANfan! Stop into one of our 34 iTAN salons for the End of the Year Lotion Clearance Sale where all customers can take advantage of 30% off one 2019 multi-use product, 40% off any two, and 50% off any 3 or more 2019 multi-use products.

And I think we can all agree that a home-cooked meal is guaranteed to please. But comfort food doesn’t always mean heavy or greasy. You can make healthy meals that fuel your body and detoxify your body in the most delicious way possible after summer and beyond.

I know there are a lot of fad diets right now. From keto to vegan to paleo— seems like everyone’s got an opinion. But the truth is that food is medicine.

If you’ve got issues with sleep, anxiety, digestion, or skin flare ups— what you need is a solid detox.

Your body is well equipped to purge itself of toxins that are horrible for your daily life and long-term health. But any time you feel, “off” you can always eat specific foods that help your detoxification operate to its highest capacity.

There are pretty much no rules when it comes to a gentle supporting detox. But if you’re looking to get the best results this summer:

#1 Cut triggers 

Sometimes we don’t even know that we are sensitive to foods. When you start to eat healthier, it’s most effective when you cut out things like: processed foods, refined sugar, alcohol, dairy and wheat.

I know that’s a lot to give up at once. But you can do it in increments and as your lifestyle allows.

#2 Add as many leafy greens to your diet as humanly possible

Leafy greans like: kale, lettuce, spinach, collard greens, and cabbage are packed with vitamins and trace minerals that your body desperately needs to function well.

In addition to the nutritive punch, these green friends help you get rid of fat by helping you change that fat into energy! So not only are you lookin’ great, you’ll feel more energized!

#3 Support your detox with herbal teas

Did you know that green tea boosts your metabolism and protects your organs? When you add digestive aids like ginger or peppermint, green tea becomes the ultimate detox tea!

#4 Treat yourself

 Just because you’re trying to better yourself does not mean that you can’t enjoy doing it.

On top of doing your best to feel amazing internally, you should definitely treat yourself to iTAN’s wellness services. They’re relaxing and scientifically proven to help you on your journey toward healthy living.

The FIT Bodywrap helps you lose weight by raising your internal temp—causing you to burn calories and fat via sweat without the workout. Its infrared system boosts your metabolism and cleanses the body of toxins which leads to long-lasting benefits like: balanced moods, clear skin, better digestion and boosted energy.

Combining any of these 4 amazing options is guaranteed to get you feeling and looking amazing as the summer ends.

Whether or not you’re excited or dreading the start of the school year, walk through those doors looking and feeling your best and own your back to school look!

Here’s the deal: From August 19- September 8 all students get one free Spray tan session and 1 free Photo Facial session. That’s right, it’s totally FREE.

There are two types of Auto Spray services available at iTAN the Mystic and the Versa. The Mystic gives you that sun-kissed golden color available in a variety of three different shades – light, medium & dark. The Versa is our other Spray booth option which leaves you with an even, bronzed glow each time. 

The Photo Facial Session lasts 20-minute and consists of high-tech LED and infrared lights, boosting blood flow while helping tone the skin, bring down inflammation, and shrink your pores; all while improving the quality of the skin and smoothing skin imperfections

All you’ve got to do is bring in your driver’s license or student ID! However, if you’re under 16, a parent must be present as well as provide consent.

If you have any questions about our Back to School Event call your local iTAN and they can get you the answers you need.

But once you get your skin feeling and looking great– how can you maintain that glow? High school and college are hard enough without having pesky stress breakouts, hormonal acne or (on the other end of the spectrum) itchy, red dry skin. 

What’s important for you guys, at this delicate age, is consistency. 

So here are 2 things you can add to your nightly routine that will help your skin stay clear and boost your confidence.

1. Wash your face.

Since you just did a spray tan, you don’t want to use an exfoliant that will scrub the colour out. You’ll want to use something you can simply spritz on– like a toner. There are loads of different ones available at makeup stores, but you can always opt to make your own.

Spray Tan Friendly Facial Cleanser

-1 cup water

-½ cup jojoba oil

-1 vitamin e oil capsule

-10 drops of lemon essential oil

-10 drops of lavender essential oil

Combine all of these ingredients into a spray bottle. Shake shake shake.

2. Hydrate!

That sounds really simple, but it’s absolutely important to, not only your skin, but your health in general. Keep your water bottle. Bring a glass of water to bed. Drink a cup of water upon waking. Trust me it’ll make all the difference.

But specific to your nightly routine: add a cup of relaxing tea. 

Chamomile, lavender, and peppermint are all good choices. These herbs specifically fight stress and relax your body so that you enter into deep sleep where your body can grow, retain information, and detox!

It’s just that simple, guys. Relax, stay hydrated, wash your face. Repeat.

And if that colour gave you the extra ego boost you need to walk the halls with pride, be sure to come back every Monday for $15 Spray tans at iTAN!
