5 Tips To Cope with The Hot Weather & Get Ready for Summer Getaway!

As you know the temperature during this time of the year is rising high, we perspire more, the heat starts to affect our mood and our skin feels burnt when we are outdoors. I am in the midst of planning my short getaway, where should I go? Well, I think I better start checking the hotels options and sort out my flight booking first, then only decide on the activities.

Looking at my calendar I can only have weekend getaway and hmm… I wish to go somewhere near, fun and at the same time meet my friends but not in Malaysia. In this case, Singapore will be the choice for this trip because I can catch up with some of my friend there also. Few weeks ago I was on Sentosa Island for a work trip. Well I kind of like the place and the theme park but too bad that time I don’t have the time to explore much.

So I plan to bring my family there for a weekend getaway. You know planning family trip is kind of tedious because everyone got their own plans and preferences. Instead of driving down, we plan to go by flight to avoid the traffic congestion at the border. So I am going to book our flight from Kuala Lumpur to Singapore and hope to get a great deal.

Basically I have decide on where to go and what to do there, now let’s go back to my UV shield. What are UV shields? Among some of the common UV shields would include an umbrella, a broad rim hat, ultra-thin jacket with UV protection, UV sleeves, sunglasses, sunblock, and whitening skincare which is ideal for summer and a hot climate such as ours to ensure that skin remains bright and flawless!
