Here's how to look after your skin properly and keep it looking its best.
Summer is here, and with it comes all the fun outdoor activities and sun!
But all that sun exposure and hot temperatures can take a toll on your skin.
Here are some tips to help you keep your skin looking healthy and beautiful all summer long:
1. Stay hydrated: Drinking plenty of water is essential to keep your skin hydrated, fresh and prevent sunstroke.
2. Use sunscreen: Protect your skin from sun exposure by using a broad-spectrum sunscreen with an SPF of at least 30. Apply the sunscreen every two hours, especially if you're swimming or sweating.
3. Moisturise: Moisturising is critical all year round, but especially during summer when the conditions are hot and dry. Use a light, oil-free moisturiser to keep your skin hydrated without feeling heavy.
4. Exfoliate: Exfoliate at least once a week to remove dead skin cells and keep your skin looking fresh and glowing.
5. Wear protective clothing: Choose lightweight clothing that covers your skin while still allowing air to circulate. Wide-brimmed hats and sunglasses are also essential to protect your face and eyes from sun damage.
6. Stay in the shade: Limit your time in the sun, and try to stay in shady areas during the peak hours of 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.
7. Avoid tanning beds: Tanning beds can have the same harmful effects on your skin as the sun.
8. Keep it clean: Wash your face twice a day and use a toner to keep your skin clear.
9. Watch what you eat: A healthy diet rich in fruits and vegetables can help keep your skin looking healthy and radiant. As an added bonus, some foods contain antioxidants that can help protect your skin from sun damage.
10. Get enough rest: Getting enough sleep is critical to allow your body to repair and regenerate your skin cells.
Remember, it's never too late to start looking after your skin.
By following these simple tips, you can enjoy the summer sun while keeping your skin healthy and glowing.
