In the dog days of summer, all you want is some relief. That’s where cooling beauty comes in. There are a range of products that can help you cool off, depuff and feel soothed during the hottest months. While you can store any product in the fridge or freezer to give an extra cooling oomph, the products we’ve found go beyond that.
To cool off luxuriously, invest in cooling face masks, ice tools, under-eye patches and more. We’ve found the best cooling beauty from brands like Milk Makeup and Summer Fridays. They employ ingredients like aloe vera, peppermint and more for relief. Some can even help soothe a sunburn.
Shop reviewer-loved cooling beauty from Amazon, Sephora, Ulta and more for any budget ahead. There’s even cooling hair care below.
