Self-care is more than a trendy buzzword. It’s a lifestyle, a way to relax and rejuvenate, and, ultimately, an act of self-kindness and self-love. Treating yourself to a bath, enjoying fresh air, and fixing a healthy snack are all self-care practices that can help clear your mind and refresh your perspective — especially first thing in the morning.
Pampering your skin is another way to start your day feeling refreshed, and it's the common denominator
in the morning routines of the four influencers ahead. For them, a good skin-care regimen sets the tone for their entire day, and suncare is a huge part of that equation.
But not all sunscreens are the same. Skin type and lifestyle play a role when picking an effective sunscreen, and Hawaiian Tropic® is each woman’s go-to brand. Read how they incorporate this skin-loving, earth-friendly suncare into their everyday routines, setting themselves up for a day of success and confidence.

“I personally cannot go a full day without my sunscreen. Because of my complexion, I’m prone to hyperpigmentation, and I combat that by applying SPF. It's a very easy and quick step that goes a long way in my skin-care journey.”
Antioxidant Mist SPF 30
“Every morning, I use a light cleanser, a moisturizer, an undereye cream, and my SPF antioxidant mist to finish everything off.”
“I make it a goal to get outside every day and take in nature. When the weather’s nice, I love hanging out at parks and beaches, skateboarding, and taking pictures.”
A firm believer that a morning routine sets the tone for self-care, college student and beauty blogger Leah Allyannah celebrates herself by pampering her skin and body. She doesn’t just mean a weekly face mask or spa-inspired shower, either. For Leah, self-care is about consistency, and a large part of her wellness regimen is applying sunscreen every single day.
“I love doing my skin care as a relaxing practice to set the tone for my day,” she told us. “Applying sunscreen to protect myself is definitely a daily win since it makes me feel like a winner in the long run.” Her product of choice? Hawaiian Tropic® Antioxidant Mist SPF 30. “I apply this sunscreen as a finisher in my skin-care routine,” she explained. “I love that it maintains my skin's glow while protecting it from not only the sun but also harsh pollutants in the air.”
Leah’s feel-good morning routine also involves the small things — like wearing her favorite slippers, hydrating herself, and making her bed. “I open my blinds to receive all the light this world has to offer me and I remember that it's a brand-new day,” she said.

Care
“My skin is oily-combination and sensitive.”
Skin Type:
“I have dry skin all year round. I get a few breakouts here and there, usually around my chin, hairline, or in between my brows. My skin can be a little sensitive as well.”
Skin Type:
“I use sunscreen every single day. I want to do what I can to age gracefully as well as protect myself against skin cancer. You only get one face and one body, so it’s important to take care of it.”
Sheer Touch Lotion SPF 30
“I give myself a facial massage every morning. I apply a serum or two and use a vibrating facial roller to promote lymphatic drainage. I then apply my moisturizer and sunscreen and call it a day. Sunscreen is always the last step in my skin-care regimen.”
“I went camping multiple times a year growing up, and it’s one of my favorite childhood memories. I love being surrounded by nature. I also love a good beach day or a BBQ at the park.”
For Janibell Rosanne, a fashion and beauty entrepreneur, a solid morning routine allows her body to ease into the day, setting herself up to be productive and positive. But at the same time, she doesn’t believe that a self-care ritual needs to entail an extensive or lavish regimen. “Sometimes going through my morning routine and making it a point to protect my skin for the day is enough for me,” she told POPSUGAR.
To do that, Janibell uses Hawaiian Tropic® Sheer Touch Lotion SPF 30 everywhere from her face, chest, and neck to her arms and legs. “I love how emollient this sunscreen is,” she said. “It glides onto my skin easily and actually hydrates it. The vitamin C and vitamin E are definitely a bonus too.”
When she’s wearing makeup, she layers her primer and foundation over her sunscreen. “As an influencer,
a lot of my work is done at home, but that doesn’t mean I’m not exposed to the sun's rays. We have quite a few windows in our apartment and I don’t like depending on the SPF in makeup products to protect me from them.”
“Sun protection is just as vital as any other part of your skin-care routine and diet. Sunscreen is so important in keeping your skin safe and preventing illnesses and wrinkles.”
Silk Hydration Weightless Oil Mist SPF 30
“I follow a quick three-step skin-care routine: drink water, moisturize, apply sunscreen.”
“I love lying by the pool, swimming, and taking long walks. On weekends, I absolutely love spending the day outdoors if the weather is nice.”
College student and beauty blogger Lisa Phan lives for daily bright spots and small wins. It could be drinking tons of water throughout the day, fitting in a long walk, or remembering to apply her SPF. “These small wins remind me that I’m taking care of myself,” she told us. And when it comes to wearing sunscreen, that’s a major win Lisa knows will help her live a healthy life.
“Enjoying the sun doesn’t have to cost you your skin,” she said. She applies a layer of Hawaiian Tropic® Silk Hydration Weightless Oil Mist SPF 30 before putting on her makeup to add protection and glow underneath it. Being a dry oil, the sunscreen is non-greasy and lightweight, making Lisa’s oily skin feel soft and dry. After makeup, she sprays on more for an extra boost of protection and dewiness. She also reapplies throughout the day.
Applying sunscreen is part of a larger daily routine that allows Lisa to set herself up for a full day of success. To do that, she eases into her mornings. “I try to fit in a quick stretch, make my bed, and go on a quick 20-minute walk to grab a coffee if I have time. For me, the morning is a moment for self-care.”

"In warm weather, my skin is oily, but when it's colder out, it’s dry and textured.”
Skin Type:
“Never skip sunscreen. It’s so cliché, but it is one of the most important things you can do for your skin — no matter your skin tone.”
Silk Hydration Clear Spray SPF 50
“My morning skin-care routine starts with cleansing, then I proceed with a toner, a moisturizer, sunscreen, and a lip balm.”
“I absolutely love being outside. I enjoy sitting out on my balcony, going to the park, or getting a bite to eat outdoors.”
Because she spends so much time outdoors, Taylor’s relaxing morning routine also always consists of sunscreen. Her favorite is Hawaiian Tropic® Silk Hydration Clear Spray SPF 50. “I love the smell and the glow it gives my skin,” she said. “It’s made applying sunscreen one of my favorite steps in my get-ready routine.” Taylor applies it as the last step in her regimen and makes sure to cover all areas that will be exposed to the sun. “It gives such an amazing glow to the skin, and it almost doubles as a perfume because of how good it smells,” she said.
Similar to how making her bed and enjoying the sunrise allows Taylor to clear her mind and prepare for a good day, applying sunscreen gives her confidence and peace of mind. “Wearing SPF is something that is so small but has a major impact,” she explained. “When all is said and done, the skin-care you practice every day could all be for nothing if you don’t apply sunscreen to protect it.”
Aside from that, Taylor likes to practice gratitude each day, taking a moment to appreciate everything she’s done and everything she’s doing. Eating a healthy meal, landing a new project, and applying sunscreen all help make up her daily lists. “Every little accomplishment can pass you by so easily. It’s important to take a second, reflect, and acknowledge how well you’re doing.”
