Go to the seaside, enjoy beautiful sunshine and soft breezes and let your mind and body both relax; hide away in a small town, amble on winding pebble tracks and melt into the romantic ambiance; or take up your backpack, go mountaineering, stretch your body and smell the fresh airThey all sound wonderful. But changing environments can pose threats to delicate skin. How can you protect yourself and stay beautiful through seven days of traveling? Here are some helpful suggestions.If youre going to the seaside:Typical resort: SanyaTypical weather: 24-31 with strong ultraviolet sunrays and fresh air. Warm sunshine, fresh sea breezes, and moist air make the seaside an agreeable haven from Beijings dust. But excessive sun exposure can easily darken your skin, and of course most Chinese girls prefer fair skin. To prepare for a pleasing and beautiful sojourn (逗留) at the seaside take note of following:1. Night time skin careEven if youve managed to block the sun in the daytime, give your skin a soothing rehabilitative (使复原的) treatment in the evening. Cool your glowing skin with a product like La Mers newly released The Concentrate (50ml/RMB 3,700).2. Shine in your bikini. At the seashore, your body is more in the spotlight than your face. To become a bikini beauty, you need to take care of every inch of your skin. Exfoliate with a fine-grained scrub, which will not only let your exposed skin shine, but also acts as a deep cleanser to help prevent skin from darkening and roughening after too much sun and salt water.3. Control excess oil. Never try to control oil with foundation that will clog pores (阻塞毛孔) when combined with sun block cream. Gentle oil-control products do a better job.4. Hair care. Beautiful girls never use free hotel shampoos, they carry their own moisturizing restoring hair care products. Wash your face and hair with fresh water after swimming to get rid of salty residue (残余，滤渣), and remember to protect your hair from too much sun exposure.Recommended skin care products1. SPF30/PA+sunscreen products. HR Premium SPF40/PA+(RMB 620) protects your skin from ultraviolet rays.2. Soothing, moisturizing, and after-sun rehabilitating products. Olay Intensive Nourishing Emulsion (RMB 120) has natural hot spring microelements to give rapid relief to burned skin.3. Gentle exfoliating scrubs.4. Easy to carry oil-control products.5. Moisturizing shampoo and hair protection products. Tips1. Whitening is as important as wearing sunscreen. For dry skins, moisturizing products are a must. Laneige Water Sleeping Pack (RMB 150) is a good choice.2. For sensitive skins, Nuskin Aloe Vera Gel complements sun block creams. Washing your face with lemonade stops skin from darkening and is refreshing.3. Never use body sun block creams on your face. Use special facial sun block creams. For drier skins, Chanel UV Essential SPF45 (RMB 450) is nice, but Shu Uemura UV under Base DF (RMB 350) is much fresher. If youre going to a small town:Typical resorts: Lijiang, Yunnan; Zhouzhuang, Jiangsu; Phoenix, ZhejiangTypical weather: 11-25 with a lot of ultraviolet radiationAs depicted in Teresa Tengs popular song Xiaocheng Gushi (Small Town Romances), small-secluded charming Chinese towns are the scene of many romances. Pebble tracks, winding lanes and ancient low villas make romantic backdrop for lovers wandering hand-in-hand. To prepare for a romantic and sweet stay in a small town, take note of the following:1. Go easy on the make up! To match your light-hearted mood we recommend the minimum of make-up. Basic skin care to keep your face healthy and glowing is enough. 2. Wear flirtatious (俏皮的) colors for special nights.Liquid foundation in heavy glass bottles and powdered blush or eye shadow is not easy to carry. So we recommend sun-blocking pressed powder, two-in-one brow pencil and eye liners, and products that can be used on both lips and cheeks.3. Make-up removal.Remember to remove sun block creams at night. Try a moisturizing and relaxing mask, and we promise you a renewed glowing complexion the next day.Recommended skin care products1. SPF15/PA+sun block face cream. Its small size makes Freeplus UV Day Protector (RMB 190, sun block and moisturizer) a good choice.2. A multi-functional cosmetic case. Bobbi Browns hand-sized palettes (RMB 380), including a foundation stick, creamy concealer, corrector, and sheer finish pressed powder are convenient.3. Clear foundation. Maybelline Mousse White Stay (RMB 89) the mousse-like texture makes this foundation light, breathable, and easy to carry.4. Make up remover. Lancomes mild Gentle Clarifying and Cleaning Fluid (small set) is perfect for traveling and it does a good job of removing all make-up thoroughly. Tips1. Apart from your daily skin care routine, traveling girls may also need protective lip cream, mascara (Maybelline is a good cheap choice), and fragrance (Try Anna Suis fresh Secret Wish Eau de Toilette).2. For lazy girls, base creams are especially useful. Wearing just a base foundation cream is enough and saves the trouble of constantly reapplying foundation at romantic moments. Others may try creamy concealers and pressed powers. Adding blush (Watsons small tubes of blush are cheap/RMB20-30 and works well) will give a healthy glow. If youre going mountaineering:Typical resorts: Huashan, Shanxi; Huangshan, Anhui; Shennongjia, SichuanTypical weather: 10-20, a high level of ultraviolet radiation and dry air. Boys often complain that mountaineering girls with their disheveled (凌乱的) hair and no make up dont look attractive. In response to this, we recommend you use absolutely no make up except for basic skin care. But looking beautiful without the aid of make up isnt easy! With all your mountaineering equipment in your backpack, there isnt much room for skin care products. The key is to choose the most important ones only, such as the following:1. Moisturizing products.Moisturizing and hydrating creams and masks help you become both sporty and ladylike.2. Sun block products.Even though the sunshine is usually not too strong in the mountains, you should take care not to be burned by ultraviolet radiation. Fresh breathable SPF20-30 sun block products are recommended.3. Facial cleaning pads.Easy to carry cleaning pads help you stay fresh and clean at all times.4. Soothing creams.Compound soothing creams can be applied onto the skin directly to reduce inflammation and help you relax.5. Lip conditioner and hand cream to prevent dryness caused by wind.Tips1. Make sure you have enough moisturizing skin care products, including a cleanser, cream, lotion and mask, even at the expense of make up products.2. Secret recipe mask: While your boyfriend is away finding wood for the fire, apply a mashed banana to your face and leave for over ten minutes. Although tiny allergic symptoms (red swollen patches) may appear right after you rinse (冲洗掉, 漂净) off the mask, your face will be dazzling after a sound sleep. 1.
