Top 5 Ways to Prepare Your Skin for Summer
Summer is just around the corner, and it's time to start thinking about how to prepare your skin for the warmer months. With the sun shining brighter and the temperatures rising, it's important to take extra care of your skin to keep it healthy and glowing. Here are some tips on how to prepare your skin for the summer months.
1. Exfoliate regularly
Exfoliating your skin is essential to remove dead skin cells and unclog pores. It also helps to improve blood circulation and promote cell renewal. Use a gentle exfoliating scrub like our Essential Exfoliation Mask with Pineapple + Papaya Enzymes 2 - 3 times/week twice a week to keep your skin smooth and radiant. Pineapple + Papaya Enzymes are the absolute superstars at naturally exfoliating your skin, repairing sun damage, and leaving it brighter, firmer, and more even-toned. Micro Jojoba spheres release moisture and nourishment, leaving your skin luminous.
2. Hydrate your skin
Drinking plenty of water is crucial for keeping your skin hydrated from the inside out. In addition to drinking water, use a moisturizer that suits your skin type to keep it soft and supple. Look for a lightweight, oil-free moisturizer that won't clog your pores. We offer 5 incredible moisturizers that will keep your skin well-hydrated during the summer months.
3. Protect your skin from the sun
The sun's harmful UV rays can cause damage to your skin, leading to premature aging, sunburn, and even skin cancer. Always wear sunscreen with an SPF of at least 30, even on cloudy days. Reapply every two hours if you're spending time outdoors. We recommend Ilia Beauty’s Skin Tint with sunscreen.
4. Eat a healthy diet
Eating a healthy diet rich in fruits and vegetables can help to nourish your skin from the inside out. Foods like berries, leafy greens, and nuts are packed with antioxidants that can help to protect your skin from damage.
5. Get enough sleep
Getting enough sleep is essential for your overall health, including your skin. Lack of sleep can lead to dark circles, puffiness, and dull skin. Aim for at least seven to eight hours of sleep each night + use high-quality professional-grade skin care like Skintessence to keep your skin looking its best.
Preparing your skin for the summer months requires a little extra effort, but it's worth it to keep your skin healthy and glowing. By following these tips, you can enjoy the sunshine without worrying about damaging your skin.
