The scorching summer is just all around. If you don’t want longer hours of daylight to take a heavy toll on your face beauty and the entire skin, take the necessary summer skincare. The tips and tricks may vary based on the place you live. For example, people living in Delhi, Goa, etc. where the temperature is higher, need the proper skin care than those living in colder regions.
To avoid scorching heat, humidity, and pollution wipe off your natural glow and keep your skin shining like the sun, you can follow the summer skincare tips recommended by well-known beauty experts of Grace & Glamour, the best unisex salon in Gurgaon providing comprehensive services.
1. Apply Sunscreen Often
Wear sunscreen with at least SPF 30 for skin’s protection from the UV lights. Be sure that sunscreen you’re using provides broad-spectrum protection and lip protection. According to FDA (Food and Drug Administration), a minimum SPF15 is required to prevent skin problems, while the American Academy of Dermatology (AAD) and the European Academy of Dermatology and Venerology (EADV) suggest using SPF 30 or higher.
Apply your sunscreen 15 or 30 minutes before sun exposure and reapply it every 2 hours for maximum protection. If you used to swim, reapply sunscreen every time after a swim. However, most sunscreens are water-proof, when you pat your skin dry using a towel, your skin may be dried. So, it’s good to reapply sunscreen.
2. Exfoliate your Body
The human body sheds skin cells every minute daily. Keeping those cells will make them set in on the skin and make your skin dry and dull. Exfoliating your body with a body scrub in a circular movement and taking a shower help in getting glowing skin. Do this 2-3 times per week.
3. Stay in the Shade
If you need to spend a day outside, seek shelter, use an umbrella, and wear a cap and sunglasses. Alongside this, get extra care to avoid dark patches or sun-induced wrinkles.
4. Keep Moisturizing
Use a lighter moisturizer with an SPF in the summer to provide your skin with an additional level of protection. Skin moisturizing is significantly important after the beach as salty water, sand, and sun exposure can dehydrate your skin.
5. Use Light Makeup with SPF
Wearing heavy makeup on warmer days can provide an unwanted additional layer on your skin. To let your skin breathe properly, go lighter on the makeup. When you’re attending an outdoor function or celebration, use makeup with a minimum of SPF 30 to ensure sun protection, effectiveness, and a better glow.
6. Cool shower
Take a cool shower as hot water can make your skin highly dry. Cool showers can benefit your skin and the whole body in multiple ways like skin microcirculation and improved blood flow.
7. Remove Excess oil
Warmer days make your skin oilier. Thus, use a face wash based on your skin type for deep cleansing to get rid of all the grime, pollutants, and dirt. If you have dry skin, use alcohol-free, mild, non-foaming, and pH-balanced cleansers for great effectiveness.
8. Stay Hydrated
Dehydration can take a toll on your skin, beauty, and the whole body. So, stay hydrated by drinking at least 2-3l water a day. Fresh fruit juices, watermelons, citrus fruits, musk melons, buttermilk, yogurt, and coconut water are good to stay hydrated.
