Summer Skin Care: Get Your Best Skin This Summer

Summer Skin Care: Get Your Best Skin This Summer

Summer is many peoples favorite time of year, but the season does come with a lot of challenges when it comes to skin care. Heat, sun, sweat, swimming, and having a more active lifestyle all put stress on your skin, which is why its a good idea to rethink your skin care routine for the season. With a few tweaks and the right aesthetic treatments, you could get your best skin ever this summer. Here are our top tips for revamping your summer skin care routine.  

Why Should You Change Your Skin Care Routine in the Summer? 

There are several factors that make summer a more stressful time of year for your skin. With the excess heat and humidity, your oil glands can go into overdrive, producing excess sebum that can lead to oily skin and increased acne breakouts. On the other hand, if you have dry skin, the heat tends to dehydrate and amplify skin dryness. Most notably, sun exposure can have a huge impact on your skin in both the short and long term. Protecting your skin from the sun and adjusting your skin care routine to repair sun damage and protect against photoaging becomes more important than ever in the summer.  

Tips For Your Best Summer Skin Care Routine 

Here are a few ways you can shake up your routine to take better care of your skin through the summer: 

Use the right cleanser. Gentle cleansers are best most of the time; however, if you find youre seeing more buildup over the summer (from sunscreen, sweat, and increased oil production), then switch to a foaming cleanser for a deeper clean that still wont dehydrate your skin 

Drink more water. The heat and a more active lifestyle are to blame for why its easier to get dehydrated in the summer months. Up your water intake to keep your skin happy and to stay healthy and energized for all your summertime activities.  

Skip retinol before sun exposure. Planning to head to the beach? Then try to avoid using retinol or retinoids beforehand, as these products make your skin more susceptible to sun damage. Its also wise to skip chemical exfoliants in this case, too.  

Use sun protection. You should be using sunscreen all year, but its especially important in the summer when youre spending more time in the sun. Take special care to apply it daily to your face and body, and to reapply every four hours or after swimming and exercise. 

Add aloe vera to your routine. If you do spend a lot of time in the sun, help your skin recover by applying a product with aloe vera and healing peptidesafterward. Peptides and aloe both help to keep skin hydrated and soothed as well. 

Hydrate with hyaluronic acid. If your skin is dehydrated, make a point of adding in a serum or other product that contains hyaluronic acid. This powerful ingredient attracts and seals in moisture, keeping your skin plump and hydrated through any heatwave. 

Load up on Vitamin C. Vitamin C brightens, smoothes, and firms skin over time, making it a powerhouse ingredient for anti-aging. Keep it on hand during the summer to prevent and resolve the hyperpigmentation that can result from sun exposure.  

Aesthetic Treatments Take Your Summer Skin Care to Another Level 

Here are the aesthetic treatments that will complement your revamped skin care routine, and beat all your summer skin woes:  

Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) Photofacial Treatments  

Photoaging is a result of sun damage, and while lockdown has had many of us stuck inside, our skin has still been prone to UV exposure. Sun damage manifests in the skin as sun spots, hyperpigmentation, wrinkles, and sagging skinpeople seeing signs of premature aging in the mirror may in fact be experiencing photoaging. Venus Versa™ Photofacial treatments address all of these concerns using IPL technology to rejuvenate skin from underneath the surface.
