We're feeling the humidity creep up like there's no tomorrow. Luckily, we got our hands on an awesome new antidote. Sunsilk hair stuff has long been a secret drugstore find, and they now have Captivating Curls, a line that's suitable not just for those who straighten, but people who like to wear their hair curly-curly. The thing is, it just prevents poofy, frizzy hair.

Professional tricks for styling curly hair.

The shampoo and conditioner are extra hydrating, and the De-Frizz Leave-In Cream is a godsend for the fuzz-fraught among us addicted to similar (but more expensive) products. Plus it smells clean and fresh, not fruity, and never feels tacky. Consider this hair day considerably improved. And for more info on fighting the dreaded frizz, check out Beauty 101 in the June issue of Allure, on sale now!

'Tis the season to lather up...here's all you need to know about protecting your skin this summer

-Susan Crandell, BettyConfidential.com

There's not a woman in America who doesn't know the perils of tanning (skin cancer, wrinkles, sun spots) - and precious few who aren't still tempted to tan. If you crave a summery glow, use a fake tanner (with subtler shadings, they no longer make you look like a hot dog) and slather on the sunscreen whenever you're outdoors. And remember, even if you have darker skin naturally, you still need sunscreen to protect against skin cancer.

Checklist for Sunscreens

UVA/UVB Protection. UVA rays cause wrinkles, freckles and spots. UVB rays cause sunburn. Both can cause skin cancer. Sunscreens work by absorbing, reflecting or scattering these rays, using ingredients such as zinc oxide, titanium dioxide and mexoryl, which provide protection against both types. Check the ingredients list or look for sunscreens labeled "broad spectrum UVA/UVB."

SPF.

After finishing a 111-day run last year across the Sahara Desert , endurance athlete Charlie Engle had an idea. Why not create a skincare line designed to help pros and amateurs alike prepare, perform, and recover from all manner of sports? And so, presumably after a few weeks of rest, he gathered a collection of swimmers, snowboarders, basketball players, and soccer players and developed Mission Skincare, a range of athlete-tested products for everyone active. We have no grand-scale athletic ambitions-although we do try to exercise regularly-but there are a few items in the Mission range that are just as helpful off the field as on: Its sweat-proof sunscreen with SPF 30 and antiaging technology is key, say, for that walk from the office to Starbucks (the far one, when the line at the closer one is too long to bear), and its high-performance anti-friction cream is a savior when extended stiletto-wearing threatens to wreak havoc on the backs of your ankles. It's legitimately tough stuff

Getty ImagesNo matter what weather you experienced this Memorial Day weekend, we know you know you're not supposed to get a tan-let alone a burn. But let's say you screwed up and it happened, or it might happen later this summer. After you kick yourself (and swear you'll never do it again-not to be all Debbie Downer, but according to the Skin Cancer Foundation, more than 90 percent of all skin cancers are caused by sun exposure), here's what to do:

1. Take a chill pill: Aspirin and/or Ibuprofen can help reduce inflammation and redness. And help out with that excruciating pain.

2. Bring on the plant juice: Aloe vera is definitely every mom's go-to for burned skin, but it's so sticky you can end up glued to your seat. Triple Lanoli Hand and Body Lotion With Aloe Vera can be found in drugstores (or on this website), and costs under $3.

What better way to celebrate the arrival of summer (and bikinis) than to whip out a fresh batch of Sun Salutations (and sweat)! Sun Salutations (Surya Namaskara) are used at the beginning of yoga classes to build heat in the body to prepare yourself for the deeper postures. Try these salutations at the beginning of the day to greet the sun and set your energy. If that isn't possible, use this sequence anytime you need extra energy or want to build up a sweat. Repeat this sequence 5-10 times to lift your heart rate, create sweat (detox) and get bikini ready!

Break it Down:

Begin in Tadasana (Moutain Pose). Feet together, stand tall with arms at the sides.

Inhale, reach the arms wide until the palms press overhead. Gaze up relaxing the base of the neck.

Exhale, release the arms wide into a forward fold, extending the chest from the hips until the hands touch the floor to either side of your feet . If the palms won't go flat come onto fingertips or hands to shins.

Inhale,

Turn your summer from sweat to sweet...

-Lois Joy Johnson, BettyConfidential.com

Most of us can't stand sweating, much less talking about it--unless it's in that casual bragging gym-like way: "Wow, I was dripping after my spinning class today!" or "Wow, that was hot!" And who wants to spend her non-gym time worrying about how to control sweating?

(Believe it or not, it used to be a hot topic. At one point, instead of blah-blah Viagra and Boniva commercials, there were clever deodorant ones. Donna Karan even appeared in a Dry Idea "Never Let Them See You Sweat" campaign, but of course, that was before she had her own couture-y $18 Cashmere Mist Deodorant/Anti-Perspirant.)

For severe cases of underarm sweating and odor (called axillary hyperhydrosis), your dermatologist can inject Botox directly into your armpits to block the release of the chemical responsible for stimulating sweat glands. Ouch! But the effect lasts four or five months and really works for extreme cases. The

Look hot, not bothered! SELF has the how-tos to keep you feeling gorgeous, despite the steamy weather.

Back off base
It's a simple equation: The less foundation you use, the less likely it is to run by midday. That doesn't mean you have to go barefaced, but "you do want makeup to appear as effortless as possible during warmer months," says Nikki Uberti, a makeup artist in Los Angeles. Avoid a meltdown by applying an oil-free tinted moisturizer with a damp sponge in short, outward strokes. Because the sponge is more porous than your fingers, this technique ensures uniform coverage that sinks into skin.

See our tips: Learn how to use water to make your skin glow and hair shine, and keep your makeup looking fresh!

Get cheeky
Cream blushes add a dewy radiance that won't clump in the heat the way powders do. The best way to get a pretty flush without the goop? Pat a dab of light cream blush (try Pixi Sheer Cheek Gel) on the back of your hand to let you work the color into a makeup
