How to keep your skin looking fresh in the heat.
Summer is the time to kickback and enjoy the great outdoors, but if you live in a city like Dubai where being outside for longer than 10 minutes is considered an achievement, it’s a whole different ball game for you and your skin.
Jumping in and out of AC challenges your complexion to remain smooth and even, and not only that, you have harmful UVA/UVB rays to consider.
But the change in your summer skincare routine doesn’t need to be extreme. In fact, the main focus should be on sun protection, rather than buying a whole new range of products.
High SPF is key, make sure to look for mousturisers that offer 30 and above and apply throughout the day. These creams are usually enough to keep your complexion hydrated so give your normal moisturiser a break.
Vitamin serums add extra protection. If you are going to be out in the sun, then use vitamin C in the morning under your SPF. If you’re indoors, your skin needs moisture so go for Vitamin B, and use Vitamin E if your skin needs extra TLC.
Introduce a mask once a week to detox the skin cells from any sun damage, dryness and dirt. Choose clay masks to budge excess oil’s, creamy masks add moisture, and gel masks help sooth the skin and reduce redness.
