I don’t know why I always gravitate towards song lyrics whenever I brainstorm post titles?

Anyway, we finally got a little taste of summer here in Toronto a week ago with temperatures ranging in the upper 20′s to low 30′s. The rest of the summer has been considerably mild and I for one am not complaining at all. You see, humidity and I do not get along: I get irritated very easily, my hair takes on a life of its own, and my face turns into a grease ball. Furthermore, my little guy gets very uncomfortable — hey, you would be too if you had two layers of fur like he does 24/7 (the poor thing).

So one night I got inspired to give myself a little treat. Well, my skin that is.  I tossed my Junkisui moisturizer in the fridge overnight and had the most soothing moisturizer application I have had. Ever. I actually “ahhhh’ed” when I applied the cold moisturizer on my face.   An added plus, the coolness of the moisturizer helped keep my skin from becoming inflamed due to the heat, which happens quite often.

Just a quick fyi, refrigerating your moisturizer will not alter its composition or make it less effective.  This is actually a tried and true trick for those hot summer days.  Having said that, go on and give your skin a cool treat this summer!
