Summer is finally here! Whether you’re surfing, hiking, or firing up the barbecue, we can all agree that the summer sun can be harsh on the skin. Below are the top tips to combat dryness, acne, or sun damage that can take a surge during the summer.
-
Wash Your Face: Washing your face is an essential step in removing the dirt, sweat, and grime that accumulates from spending time outdoors. This prevents the buildup of impurities that lead to conditions such as acne, and maintains a basic sense of hygiene. For a gentle, non-irritating face wash for all skin types, our Daily Face Wash is a reliable daily cleanser.
-
Change Your Pillowcase: Pillowcases can be a breeding ground for bacteria, as it is where oil, dead skin cells, and sweat accumulate. Make sure to change your pillowcases 1-2 times a week - especially if you are prone to acne—as this will prevent buildup and maintain a hygienic setting.
-
Use Sun Protection: While sunscreen is essential year-round, it is particularly crucial during the hot summer months. Make sure to apply sunscreen daily on your face and all body parts exposed to the sun - and don’t forget to reapply every two hours. For a good facial sunscreen, our Everyday Sun Defense SPF 30 has a non-greasy, reef-safe formula perfect for all skin types.
-
Moisturize: Summer heat can dry your skin, so don’t forget to moisturize - especially if you have dry skin by default. Our Daily Moisturizer is the ultimate go-to moisturizer, as it is non-greasy and suitable for all skin types. However, if you’re looking for something more lightweight, our All-In-One Toner & Moisturizer has a gel-based formula that both soothes & moisturizes.
Summer rays may be harsh, but through the power of hygiene & maintenance, you can keep your skin healthy, protected, and glowing. Don’t skimp on the skincare this summer, and stay hydrated!
