Tips to Renew & Repair Summer Skin
Summer can be extra tough on the skin, for both men and women!
If you feel like your skin is showing signs of aging or an increase in undesirable texture and inflammation, you are not alone. Maintaining a healthy skin regime is so important, especially when we are applying more products and exposed to the elements more due to hours of daylight. Pores can become clogged and skin can lose it’s rumination very easily because of increase in dryness.
Here are a few things you can do to help your skin stay fresh and looking its best this season.
Cleanse – Wash, cleanse and pat dry your face at least twice a day. In the morning, cleanse and use a toner before heading out for the day. Toner helps the absorption of your sunscreen by helping close pores. In the evening, cleanse the skin again as you likely have had sunscreen, maybe makeup and sweat sitting on your skin all day. Follow up with a super hydrating serum, and night cream.
Hydrate– Have you ever noticed when you sit at the beach for a long time, your skin feels tight and dry? That’s because it needs some hydration as well. Not only should you hydrate from the inside (with H2O) but your skin needs the outside hydration as well. My trickis to keep some micellar water wipes in your beach bag, and depending on how long you are at the beach for, give your face a wipe every two – three hours, then reapply a moisturizer with SPF. Micellar water not only cleanses the skin, but is a toner and moisturizer all in one!
Balance– Maintenance is always key. Don’t stop your regular care because it’s the summer and life is busy! Whether you get regular facials, laser treatments or peels, keeping on top of your skins health is one of the best things you can do over any season. Exfoliation, collagen stimulation and rejuvenation will only help your skin and recover. Balance your summer with a little self care …your skin will thank you for it!
I hope everyone is having a wonderful summer thus far! Remember if you ever have any questions or are in need of some product direction for the summer, I am always happy to help!
