Summer is a season that we enjoy to the fullest, but it is also when our skin needs more attention and care. Below, we present five essentials to keep your skin healthy and radiant during the hottest months of the year.
1. Essential Sunscreen
The sun is a vital source of energy and vitamin D, but prolonged exposure to its rays can have serious consequences for skin health. The only effective way to mitigate the negative effects is by using a high-quality sunscreen on a daily basis. During the summer, we spend more time outdoors, which means more exposure to the sun. This can result in sunburn and, in the long term, photoaging, dark spots, wrinkles and premature fine lines.
To protect your skin, it is crucial to incorporate the use of a broad-spectrum sunscreen with SPF 50 into your daily routine. This product should be applied after moisturiser and renewed from time to time, especially if sun exposure is prolonged.
Recommended product: Luminosa 50+ Cream with very high sun protection and broad UVA, UVB and IR spectrum.
2. Skin Cleansing
Before applying any moisturiser, sunscreen or make-up, it is essential to keep your skin clean. During the summer, skin gets dirtier due to pollutants, wind and sweat. Therefore, it is essential to cleanse your skin properly to remove traces of impurities and keep it fresh.
Our Cleansing Mousse is perfect for daily cleansing. Not only does it remove dirt and excess oil, but it also gently exfoliates, moisturizes, nourishes, soothes and repairs the skin. Incorporating a good cleansing routine with effective products is crucial to keeping your skin healthy during the summer.
Recommended product: Cleansing Mousse, for daily cleansing. Gently cleanses and exfoliates, moisturizes, nourishes, soothes and repairs.
3. Hydration
Proper hydration is key to maintaining healthy skin in summer. Despite frequent contact with water, factors such as temperature changes, sea or pool water, wind and sun can dehydrate the skin.
It is important to drink plenty of water and use moisturizing products that keep the skin soft and supple. Especially at night, after a day of sun exposure, incorporate a moisturizing serum into your routine.
Recommended product: Hyaluronico 3 Plus, a concentrated 2% hyaluronic acid serum that deeply hydrates, preventing expression lines and treating existing wrinkles.
4. Prevent and Treat Stains
Vitamin C is one of the most effective and necessary antioxidants to combat free radicals, responsible for premature skin aging. This antioxidant helps protect the skin against sun damage, preventing the appearance of hyperpigmentation and promoting more even and luminous skin.
Incorporate a vitamin C serum into your routine to keep your skin protected and radiant.
Recommended product: Illuminating and Regenerating Serum C, vitamin C serum that illuminates, softens wrinkles, firms the skin, eliminates and prevents blemishes.
5. Exfoliate
Exfoliation is essential in summer to remove dead skin cells and improve blood circulation, as well as to even out the skin's texture. However, it is important not to expose yourself to the sun immediately after exfoliating, as the skin will be more sensitive.
Exfoliate with products suitable for your skin type and make sure to include this step in your weekly routine.
Recommended product: Exfoliating, enzymatic and physical mask, for effective and safe cell regeneration.
By following these five steps and using the right products, you can enjoy the summer while keeping your skin protected, hydrated and radiant.
Take care of your skin and look spectacular this season!
