Keep Your Skin Happy with These Summertime Tips

Is it hot, or is it just us?!?!? Okay… I will admit it’s probably both! We’ve reached the hottest days of the summer, and most of us spend our days out and about (and far away from air condition comfort). If you’re anything like me, after a few hours you feel like a icky, sweaty mess. And what about your skin?!?  No need to worry.  We have some great summertime tips for you.

Ladies, we all know that skincare is super important but during these hot summer months, it is vital that we take extra care of our skin. This is why I am here to give out some handy dandy tips to help keep our skin looking fabulous while we are outside enjoying those rays of sunshine.

Keep Your Skin Happy with These Summertime Tips

Origins Perfect World SPF 40 Moisturizer available at Sephora

SUNSCREEN, SUNSCREEN, SUNSCREEN is the most important piece of advice I could ever give. Now I am not talking about the sad SPF 10 or 15 that comes in some foundations or BB creams, I am talking about SPF 30 or higher as anything less is just child’s play. It is also important to use a sunscreen product that is meant for the face because the last thing you want is clogged pores and a breakout.

Stay hydrated. Not only will your body thank you, but hydrated skin is happy skin! Make sure to drink plenty of water.

I have found that carrying around a good, leak-proof water bottle helps to make sure I get my daily water intake.

Simple Water Boost Gel Cleanser available at Target

Clean skin is happy skin, but during the summer months try to avoid heavy creams and oils. I love using water based products during the warmer months. Not only does skin get squeaky clean, your skin will also get an extra boost of hydration. If you’re not sure what to use try the Simple Water Boost Gel Cleanser.  

Bonus Tip: Skincare wipes are your friend. Take them to the beach, the park, the pool, etc to wipe down your face of any dirt or sand.

GLAMGLOW SuperMud Clearing Treatment at Sephora

Make sure to detoxify with good mask 1-2 times a week, this will do wonders for your skin. If you are looking to deep clean your pores this mask will help pull everything to the surface and give you squeaky clean pores.  

So ladies, now that I’ve shared my tips for keeping your skin happy and healthy during the summer, go out and enjoy the sunshine. You no longer have to be a victim of sweat clogged pores and sun burn. Your skin will thank you.
