"Antioxidants' main function is to combat free radicals, which can be caused by air pollution and sunlight, so it is the perfect ingredient to look for in beauty products," said Dr. Polis. "I recommend Dial(R) Antioxidant Body Wash with Cranberry & Antioxidant Pearls with natural cranberry extracts, antioxidant pearls, and extra moisturizers, which help reveal healthy, younger looking skin. For summer, beauty regimens should involve replenishing, protecting, and hydrating the skin."

Dr. Laurie Polis gives the following tips for baring beautiful summer skin this season.

Replenish:

Being outside during the summer months can be dangerous for skin which is why, according to Dial research, 62% of women crave products with antioxidant benefits. As a beauty ingredient, a daily dose of antioxidants helps defend against environmental stress and drying. Lathering up with Dial(R) Antioxidant Body Wash with Cranberry & Antioxidant Pearls is a great option for women looking for replenished and healthy feeling skin.

Protect:

Sunscreen protection is a requirement for achieving beautiful, radiant skin. A lotion with a Sun Protection Factor (SPF) between 15-30 and UVA/UVB protection is particularly important between the hours of 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., when ultraviolet rays are at their strongest. When applying sunscreen, measure approximately three tablespoons in order to guarantee proper coverage and always remember to reapply throughout the day.

Hats and sunglasses are also another way to protect skin against sun. Added protection for your face will help keep skin smooth, hydrated and protected from wrinkles and sunspots.

Hydrate:

Keeping the body hydrated is another way to ensure healthy, glowing skin. Water is the one beverage that not only refreshes the body, but also helps to avoid dehydration and promote healing processes. To determine your personal recommended water intake per day, divide your body weight by two. The resulting number is the number of ounces of water recommended each day. For example, a woman who weighs 150 pounds should strive to drink 75 ounces of water daily.

Dial(R) Antioxidant Body Wash and Bar with Cranberry & Antioxidant Pearls are available in grocery and mass retailers nationwide. Suggested retail pricing for an 18-ounce bottle of body wash is $4.99, and for a 3-bar pack, $2.49.
