The brightly shining sun and the rising temperatures can only mean one thing: summer is here. While you’re likely planning social get-togethers, picnics, and beach vacations, don’t forget to update and recreate your skincare routine as well.

That’s right, just when you’ve nailed down and mastered your winter skincare routine, it’s time to make a few tweaks so you can have your best skin ever this summer. Thankfully, the modifications aren’t too drastic, and there’s a consistent theme (read: sun protection!).

How Does Summer Affect Your Skin?

The sebaceous glands become more active throughout the summer. The proportion of their growth grows as the temperature rises in this weather, which is accompanied by heat and humidity. It causes dry skin to be patchier and oily skin to be oilier. Because of the intensity of the sun’s rays, melanin pigments grow more potent. All of this causes the skin to get more tanned.

Summer Skincare Tips

There are a few simple steps you can take to maintain your skin’s radiance and stability during the summer months. Simply replace your items with skincare products that are appropriate for your skin type. 

Nonetheless, we’ve compiled a list of ideas for you to try so you can have healthy skin this summer.

Change Your Facial Cleanser

The methods of skincare change with the seasons. The first and most important step is to switch from winter to summer face wash. Choose the one that removes excess oil from the face and cleans it. If you have dry skin, we recommend using a non-foaming cleanser.

Cleaning your face twice or three times a day is insufficient. Wash your face at least four times a day. The non-foaming face wash is also ideal for combination skin. Do not experiment with anything on your face. Instead, do a patch test on your arms before trying out a new skincare product. 

Don’t Forget to Apply Sunscreen

The next summer skincare advice is to apply sunscreen on your face to protect it from the sun. Ultraviolet rays are harmful to your skin at any time of year, but they are most harmful during the summer. During this season, the skin is more exposed to the sun.

Use a sunscreen that absorbs quickly into the skin. We recommend using a sunscreen with SPF 30-35 that you should apply at least 20 to 30 minutes before stepping out in the sun. 

When going swimming, reapply it if it gets rinsed out. UVA and UVB rays not only burn but also tan your skin, causing collagen and skin cells to break down. This is what mainly causes overall skin damage. 

Sun protection is critical for both adults and children. Sunscreen reduces sunspots and lightens fine lines and wrinkles.

Maintain a Healthy Diet

The food you eat affects the way you look. It is critical to eat right to keep your skin bright and lively during the scorching summers. Include fibrous and juicy fruits in your diet to keep your skin hydrated.

To revitalize your body throughout the heat, we recommend that you choose cooling foods, vitamin C, and as many greens as possible. Light lentils, cereals, salads, smoothies, and almonds are important diet components that can cause a huge difference in your body. These foods boost your immunity and increase stamina while reducing your body temperature. You can also apply an antioxidant skin serum to reduce free radicals on your skin.

Hydrate, hydrate, hydrate!

More hydration is always better, especially in the heat of summer. Drinking at least eight glasses of water every day will undoubtedly benefit your skin; it is one of the simplest and most effective summer skincare tips you can adopt.

To stay hydrated, we recommend that you bring a bottle of water with you whenever you go out.  Keeping your skin hydrated will not only help it heal from sunburns but will also make it more glowing. 

Toxins from the body are flushed out by water as urine and sweat. What’s better is to combine water with seasonal fruits like oranges, watermelon, lemon, mint, and pomegranate to boost your antioxidants.

You may also buy good moisturizing facial masks to moisturize and hydrate your skin. Get a mask that nourishes your skin and refreshes it. Wash your face first, then use a cleanser to thoroughly clean your face.  After that, apply the hydrating mask to your face and leave it on for 20 to 30 minutes. After that, wash your face and let it dry.

Exfoliate

You must remove the dead skin cells that have accumulated on the surface of your skin. You will need an organic and gentle facial scrub to remove blackheads and dead skin, and, most importantly, to nourish and hydrate your skin to the core.

Inadequate skin care results in the formation of dead cells, which causes your skin to appear dry and dull. As a result, your body and face appear uneven. Only use a scrub that is appropriate for your skin type. You can exfoliate three times a week to keep your skin looking great even in the heat.

Use a Skin Toner

What matters more are the skin toners. The purpose of toners is to close open pores, which are crucial for reducing dirt accumulation on the skin. 

Toners containing Aloe Vera or cucumber cleanse the skin while also reducing the production of oil in the T-zone. This area of your skin has the most sebaceous glands and appears the shiniest throughout the summer. Brighten this area by applying toner like Sea Active Skincare’s Sea Balance™ Botanical Toner.

Swap Out Your Moisturizer

In the summer, skip the heavier shea butter moisturizers and cold creams. Light moisturizers are more appropriate in this season. You cannot neglect the importance of moisturizing the skin. However, the heavier ones should be swapped out for the lighter ones. 

Use a moisturizer with a minimum of SPF 25 and a maximum of SPF 50, like Skin Guardian™ SPF 25 Daily Moisturizer by Sea Active Skincare. A thick moisturizer can cause acne and irritation by sealing the pores. If your skin type is 

oily or acne-prone, you can clear it up by using a good moisturizer.

Make Hygiene a Top Priority

Maintaining good hygiene could also help you beat the summer heat. Bathing twice a day not only relieves summer fatigue but also makes your skin look younger. Those who suffer from prickly heat should try soaking in a bucket bath with neem leaves and see the difference. 

Bathing regularly might also help those with body odor.

Don’t Forget About Your Lips and Eyes

In the summer, the sun’s rays grow more harmful between 12 and 4 p.m. It’s best to avoid the outdoors during this time. If going out is unavoidable, use a balm to protect your lips, and shades to cover your eyes.

We don’t normally pay extra attention to, or even care for, the skin around that area, but too much heat might burn your eyes, you should wash them with cold, fresh water regularly. 

The Best Organic Summer Skincare Products

Even in the worst summers, it’s important to always look your best. It is what makes you appear healthy and glowing, so don’t disregard it. 

The heat of summer causes your skin to become dull and dry. As such, it is necessary to have a summer skincare routine that can maintain the freshness and radiance of your skin.
