Each season demands a different skincare regimen to ensure you have glowing and luminous skin all year round. Summers play a havoc with skin and hair and it’s pertinent that you pick the right kind of products to take care of your skin.
These super easy summer skincare tips will come handy to you when it comes to keeping your skin clean, nourished and glowing.
Here is a list of 7 skincare ideas that your skin will thank you for.
Wash you face
This is one of the most essential skincare tips for summers. Make sure you wash it in the morning to remove all the toxins that have accumulated through the night. Also once you return home at the close of the day, wash your face properly to get rid of all the sweat and grime. You might want to cleanse your face in between if it becomes grubby by mid-day. Use a mild face wash that will help you get rid of the dirt and germs while ensuring your skin remains soft.
Eliminate pigmentation from the lips
If you have not taken care of your lips until now and they look pigmented, you can do some damage control. Applying mixture of honey and lemon juice once may provide some instant relief, but for long term benefits, you need frequent and constant application. Apply it with the help of a cotton ball and then leave it on for 30 minutes to one hour before washing off.
Use a Toner
Many men and women bypass the use of a toner, feeling they don’t need it. Toners are effective in balancing the pH of the skin and can be helpful in summers, even when your skin becomes more oily. People with oily skin may use a toner to wash their skin throughout the daytime, to prevent the oil from clogging pores.
Shield your eyes
Your skin around your eyes cannot bear the brunt of the heat. Every night before you sleep, choose a soothing eye cream that helps relax your eyes and protect against dark circles. Always massage your skin around your eyes very softly because the skin is incredibly tender.
Use Facial Oils
Facial oils should be your new friends for skincare, if they are not already! It’s a myth that facial oils clogs your pores and makes your face look fatter. On the contrary, this is the product that can work for your skin all through the year in most seasons. You need just a small bit of this serum or oil to massage on your skin. They will help you keep your skin nourished and hydrated. You will find skin oils for all skin types.
Anti-aging Creams
Anti-aging creams are not only for people over 40 who have fine lines and wrinkles. It is a myth that needs to be debunked. If you are over 25 and have active exposure to sunlight and workplace environment, add an anti-aging cream to your skincare regimen. Especially in the summers because your skin tends to get dried up fast. Opt for a mild night cream that can work wonders for your skin as you sleep.
De-tan Masks
A suntan is one of the widespread problems we face in the summer. With a variety of products, all promising to be the best tan removal products, choosing the ideal one can be tricky. De-tan merchandise works when you use it frequently. They can be masks, lotions, oils, and washes. Exfoliation is another right way to ensure the tan is kept at bay.
