A summer body may be every girl’s dream but a summer skin, can easily turn into a nightmare. With hot weather, sweat, and UV rays, your skin needs more protection, more nourishment, and special care. And when we say care, we mean not just topical application, we mean a holistic approach. Providing care from within and out is essential for a healthy complexion and flawless skin. So before we move on to the not-so-secret guide to gorgeous skin, let us take a sneak peek into what makes our skin dull in the summers?
Heat Is Not The Only Culprit!
You might think that hot weather is the biggest factor but it’s just the start of a series of factors. With excessive heat, our skin starts producing more sebum. As a result, we wash the excess oil off with an oil-free facial wash or cleanser. While this seems a likely solution, it also rips off the moisture from your skin. Here, it is important to understand that moisture is essential, regardless of the skin type you have. Again, a moisturizer is essential but staying hydrated will keep the moisture locked in your skin.
So, that’s the first mistake you must avoid on all costs. And now, let’s jump straight into our top 5 summer glowing skin tips.
-
Drink Plenty Of Water
Although drinking water is recommended always, summer specifically asks for more hydration. With all those fashionable bottles around, keeping one handy is not just healthy, it’s cool too. You can add a few drops of lemon to get that extra dose of vitamin C too.
-
Enjoy The Fruits
Summer season is full of taste. Melons, peaches, mangoes, cherries, kiwi fruit, all are filled with antioxidants and vitamins. They nourish your skin with potent nutrients and not only brighten it but also prevent it from losing its natural shine and freshness.
You can also create cocktails with these fruits and coconut water and enjoy taste and skin health at the same time.
-
Wear Sunscreen
If you have an oily skin, make sure you use a water based sunscreen. Such a sunscreen would have an SPF of 45 or over. Even if you don’t have oily skin, wear a sunscreen that’s more absorbent. Residue on your skin can easily turn into an infection in the hot and humid weather.
-
Go Easy On Cleansing
Yes, sweat, oil, and itching needs cleansing but overdoing it will brought on an adverse effect on your skin. Rubbing and massaging your skin can aggravate sebum production. Therefore, cleanse every morning and evening with a wash.
A pro tip, use toner after washing as it will help in balancing your skin’s natural PH.
