We've been treated to some lovely sunshine recently, so it's time to adjust your skincare routine. With increased humidity, excess sweat and exposure to UV rays, your skin requires much-needed TLC. Implementing the best skincare routine means embracing your summer glow!
In warm weather, it's important to cleanse your face twice a day to remove sweat, excess oil and impurities that clog your pores. A creamy cleanser - like my New Edition - won't strip away natural oils or disrupt your moisture balance. It contains organic ylang ylang, vitamin A and Echinacea to resurface and repair skin cells.
Regular exfoliation is crucial to remove dead skin cells and unclog pores, allowing your skin to breathe. However, in warm weather, it's advisable to opt for gentle exfoliation methods to avoid over-stripping or irritation. Bee Polish is an non-abrasive, anti-ageing exfoliator that contains my patented formula ABEETOXIN®. It helps alleviate fine lines and lighten pigmentation whilst extracting toxins without harming the outer layer of the skin.
With increased sweating and exposure to the sun, your complexion easily becomes dehydrated. Use a hydrating serum that is easily absorbed into the skin without feeling heavy or greasy. My Collagen Serum Oil contains hyaluronic acid to attract and retain moisture, keeping your skin hydrated throughout the day.
Warmer weather increases oil production, resulting in shiny and congested skin. Incorporate products that help control excess oil and prevent breakouts. Balance oil levels with my Cleanse & Foam Wash, with added organic carrot oil and vitamins A and C to rejuvenate and repair. Use in the morning to prepare a clean base for your moisturiser and foundation and before bed to wash away pollution and lingering makeup.
When the heat becomes overwhelming, incorporating soothing and refreshing products into your routine can be a game-changer. Keep my Collagen Body & Face Mist handy to hydrate and cool down on-the-go. It instantly refreshes and calms irritated skin and you can also store it in the fridge for extra cooling.
Skincare isn't just about what you apply topically; it's also influenced by your internal health. During the summer, it's essential to stay hydrated by drinking an adequate amount of water throughout the day. Proper hydration helps maintain the elasticity of your skin and promotes a healthy complexion.
