Summer-Ready Skin
As summer approaches and the weather warms up, it’s the perfect time to refresh your skincare routine. From increased sun exposure, to humidity and hotter temperatures you can ensure that your skin is ready for these changes. My passion for skincare and wellness is a core part of who I am, and I’m excited to help you prep your skin for the summer months ahead. Here are some tips to transition your skincare routine for summer.
Effective Cleansing
As temperatures rise, managing oil production and sweat is crucial. Cleansing is essential because it removes impurities, excess oil, and sweat that can clog pores and lead to breakouts. After a long day out, a gentle cleanser like the Blue Dew Fruit Enzyme Oil To Milk Cleanser is ideal. This dreamy formula not only removes makeup, daily grime, and SPF but also maintains the skin's natural moisture barrier, preventing it from becoming overly dry or irritated. By keeping your skin clean and balanced, you create a fresh canvas that allows other skincare products to work more effectively.
Hydration is Key
If your skin is overproducing oil, it may be seeking hydration . Ingredients like Hyaluronic Acid can provide a much-needed hydration boost. The Medik8 Hydr8 B5 Intense, with just six drops across your face, neck, and décolletage, delivers intense hydration. Don’t forget to hydrate from within by sipping water throughout the day. Another favourite is the Disciple London Triple C Gel Hydrator, packed with antioxidant vitamin C, hyaluronic acid, and cherry extract to support collagen production—perfect for both day and night use with one pump on damp skin.
Lightweight Moisturisers
In summer, heavy creams can feel too much. The Thank You Farmer Rice Pure Gel and Cream is a bi-phase formula with skin-barrier loving ingredients, allowing you to customise your gel to cream ratio based on your skin’s needs. This versatility ensures you get the right balance of hydration without feeling heavy.
SPF for All Seasons
Sunscreen is non-negotiable all year round, but it’s even more critical in summer. Finding an SPF you love is key. The Thank You Farmer Sun Project Light Sun Essence SPF50 is lightweight, leaves no white cast, and suits most skin types, including acne-prone skin. Remember! Be sure to reapply your SPF throughout the day, especially if you’re not wearing make-up. For those of us with melanin-rich skin, consistent application is vital to avoid dark marks. Lips need protection too, so try the M Squared Nourishing Lip Balm with SPF 30.
Transitioning your skincare for summer, doesn’t have to be complicated. By focusing on effective cleansing, hydration, lightweight moisturisers, and diligent sunscreen use, you can keep your skin healthy and radiant all season long.
