Happy Sunday, everyone! I hope everyone enjoyed this beautiful weekend. The weather was so amazing compared to last weekend’s heatwave! And for that I am thankful.

If you can’t tell by my inverse raccoon eyes, I spent the whole weekend in the sun reading and it was so, so, so delightful but so counter-active to my normal skincare regimen. While I slather on sunscreen (my favorite is currently on sale via Nordstrom) while I’m baking in the sun, I know my pre- and post-sun routine is just as important.

This weekend, I tested out a new product called CICA Plus Blam from a brand I never heard of called Dewy Cel. Dewy Cel is a new concept based on plant stem cell ingredients and it aims to have a skin regeneration effect. The plant components of the product have antibacterial, healing, moisturizing and soothing, effects, making this product perfect for that post-sun glow.

What I Love: Overall, I love the intense action this product takes. I honestly feel like it completely rejuvenates my face overnight, which is a testament to the product’s rich list of ingredients. Specifically, in the summer, I feel like using this product after being in the sun all day helps my face look fresh and dewy instead of burnt and swollen.

The Watchouts: While this product is super lightweight and doesn’t feel heavy on your skin whatsoever, I do feel like it can sometimes feel sticky when you apply it. At first, I thought I may have been using the product wrong and it was more of a face wash, but after a few minutes (~15), the stickiness dissolves and your skin is left super smooth.

What are your post-sun skincare regimen? Would love to hear them in the comments. 👇
