Summer is all of our favorite times of the year, but it can wreak real havoc on your skin if you don’t step up your summer skin routine accordingly. Excess sweat and sunscreen are two of the biggest culprits when it comes to summer skin meltdowns.
4 Ingenious Ways to Rectify Summer Skin Meltdowns
#1. Double cleanse!
I repeat this major beauty tip all of the time because honestly, double cleansing every evening is a skin savior! The first cleanse washes away dust, dirt, and pollution while the second cleanse goes deeper to wash away excess oil, sweat, dead skin and other nasties that otherwise result in blockages and breakouts.
#2. Go lighter on the makeup
Thick, heavy foundations are an absolute no-no during the summer months. Opt for lighter powders or tinted moisturizers for a natural bronze glow.
#3. Ditch the unhealthy diet
Raised temperatures, dehydration, and poor diet choices can cause all kinds of summer skin meltdowns. Pack your summer days with foods packed with vitamins and minerals and your skin will reward you with a happier, younger, and healthier radiance.
#4. Hydration is everything!
Hydrated skin is plumper, firmer and more youthful. You should be drinking at least 2 liters of water a day – more if you spend time sweating in the sun. Use a hydrating skin lotion post-beach to give your skin an all-over kiss of life.
