4 Summer Skin Care Tips
One in four Americans are going to hit the beach this summer - are you one of them? Whether it's a boost of beachside vitamin D or a chill backyard barbecue with friends, summer is a time to recharge and unwind.
But did you know that your skin care regime needs some tweaking during those summer months? When the sun is closer to the earth, we get that balmy heat we love, but the stronger sun requires some extra TLC for our skin.
Here are 4 summer skin care tips to keep your skin safe and supple all summer long.
1. Choose a Broad-Spectrum Sunscreen
The first thing you'll need is a broad-spectrum sunscreen with an SPF of 30 or higher for proper protection. If you're planning on a stroll or some alfresco dining, choose a facial sunscreen to wear over your skin serum, but under your makeup.
You'll want to reapply your sunscreen every couple of hours, or after swimming, to stay protected all day.
Sunscreen protects against harmful UV rays that can cause fine lines and wrinkles, and even cancer. As a result, using it can have an anti-aging effect, giving you younger skin year-round.
2. Moisturize Regularly
It's easy to remember to moisturize in winter when your skin feels dry and cracked, but it's important to moisturize in summer, too. Moisturizers help to protect against pollutants and chemicals that can irritate your skin.
The summer heat and humidity can make your usual winter moisturizer feel heavy and uncomfortable to wear. Instead, choose a light cream formulated for summer, that will keep you cool despite the sun's rays.
3. Invest in a Vitamin C Primer
A vitamin C primer is an excellent way to promote healthy collagen, minimize pores, and smooth away fine lines and wrinkles. When choosing the right vitamin C primer, opt for something backed by experts, with no harmful ingredients.
Dr. Minas Chrysopoulo ("Dr. C"), recommends the InvinCible Primer+ for its premium quality ingredients. With no fillers or harmful chemicals, InvinCible Primer+ has a high safety profile that even makes it safe for cancer patients.
Add a few drops of vitamin C primer to your skin care routine in the morning and at night for optimum protection.
4. Stay Hydrated
One of the most important lifestyle hacks for beautiful skin is to always stay hydrated, whatever the weather. Drinking lots of water helps to maintain skin elasticity and clarity.
In the heat of summer, though, your body works harder to cool us down, which is one reason we sweat. It's much easier to get dehydrated in summer, so doctors recommend upping our water intake to balance the higher temperatures. Plus, staying hydrated can also help skin recover faster after sunburn, which is a win in our book.
