Summer care tips for healthy, radiant skin
For many of us, summer means lazing by the pool, sunbathing on the beach and days of fun in the sun. Unfortunately, the warm and bright days (and warm nights) can also lead to high humidity, sunburn and stressed skin. While we’re all focused on the sun’s rays, it’s also important to protect ourselves with a simple skincare routine.
Here are six easy-to-implement skin care tips for the summer that you should follow:
1. keep it simple and uncomplicated
Do you normally have a sophisticated skincare regime? Summer is the perfect time to simplify your routine and skip some products (at least temporarily). For example, if you regularly use heavy oil and cream cleansers, opt for something gentle and foamy. Remember, if you don’t need the heavy winter coat, your skin doesn’t need it either.
Try it out: The gentle and lightweight Physio Radiance Gentle Foaming Cleanser is designed to remove oil and other impurities while maintaining the skin’s hydrolipidic balance.
2. don’t forget the sunscreen
While the summer sun is vital for vitamin D production, it can also cause serious UV damage to the skin, contribute to wrinkles and spots and increase the risk of skin cancer. That’s why you should always protect exposed areas of your body such as your ears, hands, neck and of course your face with sunscreen.
Try it out: A broad spectrum sunscreen with an SPF of at least 30. Also try Physio Radiance Firming & Lifting Double Serum to combat hyperpigmentation and uneven skin tone caused by too much sun exposure.
3. humidity, humidity, humidity
The air may not be as dry in summer as it is in winter, but your skin still needs plenty of moisture. The high humidity means you need to deal with the stress that sweat, oil and other pollutants can put on your skin and make sure it’s moisturized both during the day and at night.
Try it out: Physio Radiance Restoring Day Cream and Physio Radiance Regenerating Night Cream have been developed with the aim of moisturizing the skin throughout the day, protecting it from chemical and physical aggressions, brightening it, nourishing it and restoring its suppleness.
4. exfoliate regularly
Daily cleansing of the face is good. However, the hotter temperatures and additional use of sunscreen in summer can lead to clogged pores. Therefore, you should perform a deep cleansing scrub two to three times a week to remove all accumulated debris and dead skin cells. It also protects against breakouts.
Try it out: Physio Radiance Visage+ Purifying Gel combined with the revolutionary Physio Radiance Visage+ for a soothing and purifying deep cleanse that calms the skin and leaves it feeling fresh and renewed.
5. repair and renew
Sometimes, despite all precautions, our skin can be damaged by sun exposure. The solution is therefore to rejuvenate and revitalize the skin with specially formulated anti-aging serums that reduce blemishes, wrinkles and fine lines and improve skin tone and brightness.
Try it out: Instant Youth for Eyes and Instant Youth for Face, two complementary serums from Physio Radiance’s Expert range with enriched seawater, wrinkle-fighting Argireline and other fast-acting natural ingredients designed to give skin a youthful and fresh appearance.
6. drink a lot
Water is vital for the efficient functioning of the body and the secret weapon of any skincare routine. As water loss through dehydration is a real problem in the hot summer heat, the need for increased water intake cannot be overstated.
Try it out: Too busy to think about it? Set alarms on your phone and mobile devices to make sure you drink the required eight to ten glasses of water a day; ideally filtered water from HomePure Nova.
