Summer is a time when we all want to show off our best skin. However, with the heat, humidity, and sun exposure, our skin can take a toll. To ensure that your skin looks and feels its best during the summer months, it’s important to take steps to prepare your skin beforehand. Here are some tips on how to get your skin ready for summer.
Exfoliate
Exfoliation is key to getting your skin ready for summer. It helps to remove dead skin cells, which can clog pores and make your skin look dull. Exfoliating also helps to improve the texture of your skin, leaving it smooth and soft. It’s best to use a chemical exfoliator, such as the Prime Aesthetics Mango Peel to avoid over-exfoliating, as this can damage your skin.
Hydrate
Hydration is important for your skin all year round, but it’s especially important during the summer months. Heat and sun exposure can leave your skin feeling dry and dehydrated. To keep your skin hydrated, make sure to drink plenty of water and use a moisturiser that is appropriate for your skin type. Prime Aesthetics Daily moisturiser with Hyaluronic acid, Niacinamide and Ceramides is perfect to keep your skin hydrated.
Protect
Protecting your skin from the sun is crucial during the summer months. UV rays can cause damage to your skin, leading to premature ageing, dark spots, and even skin cancer. Make sure to use a broad-spectrum sunscreen with an SPF of at least 50, and reapply every two hours if you’re spending time outside. You can also protect your skin by wearing a hat and staying in the shade during the hottest parts of the day. Try our new SunDefence SPF 50 & PA++++
Treat
If you have any skin concerns, such as acne, hyperpigmentation, or dryness, it’s important to treat them before the summer months. This will help to ensure that your skin looks its best during the summer. Talk to a dermatologist or aesthetician about the best treatments for your skin concerns.
Adjust your skincare routine
As the weather gets warmer and more humid, you may need to adjust your skincare routine. Switch to lighter, more breathable products that won’t clog your pores or leave your skin feeling greasy. You may also need to cleanse your skin more often to remove sweat and oil.
Stay consistent
Finally, the key to getting your skin ready for summer is to stay consistent with your skincare routine. Don’t skip steps or forget to apply sunscreen. By sticking to a regular routine, you’ll be able to maintain healthy, glowing skin all summer long.
In conclusion, getting your skin ready for summer is all about exfoliating, hydrating, protecting, treating, adjusting your skincare routine, and staying consistent. By following these tips, you’ll be able to enjoy the sun and show off your best skin.
