1. Take into account the importance of Your Face Wash

In summer, you would need a proper face wash that can zap out all the excess oil and dirt. Wash your face daily (2x) to keep it happy, healthy and perfectly balanced. Your nightly skincare routine is always important, but even more so during summer. Sunscreens tend to be on the heavier side so make sure you remove any residue at the end of the day. Protect your skin during the day, but let it breathe overnight.

2. Include Antioxidants in Your Facial Skin Care Routine

Your summer is not complete without a good antioxidant serum. Not only does it boost hydration, but it also protects from environmental damage. Antioxidants stimulate collagen production and tackle harmful free radicals to prevent further damage. It’s a ‘one size fits all’ kind of product, as it’s good for combination, normal and oily skin. Remember that nourishing yourself from the inside out is vital for healthy skin. Stock up on antioxidant powerhouses like citrus fruits, leafy veggies, green tea, nuts and whole grains to unveil a more radiant complexion. and do not forget to take your Daily Vitamin System to complete your nutrition regime.

3. Keep Your Skin Hydrated

The summer months are tough on your skin. It’s then when it suffers from a lack of both moisture and hydration. That’s why it’s important to invest in a nourishing mask to quench your skin’s thirst a few times a week. Wash your face and apply the mask to repair, hydrate and soothe your parched complexion. It's your skin’s best friend when it comes to dryness, acne and oily situations. Schedule 10 minutes of unapologetic me-time while taking care of your complexion.

4. Exfoliate Regularly for Smoother Skin

Exfoliation is the secret to beautiful summer skin. It sloughs away dead skin cells and reveals a brighter and smoother complexion. Unwanted build-up prevents the skin from breathing which leads to even more congestion. Always remember that exfoliation is as necessary for your body as it is for your face. Just be extra gentle when exfoliating, especially in summer.

5. Wear Sunscreen

Sunscreen should be your number one priority. Always. Use one that has a broad ultraviolet spectrum (between SPF 30-50 and covers UVA and UVB rays). Re-apply every two hours if you’re spending all day enjoying the summer heat. And don’t forget your hands, feet, neck and shoulders.

6. Use a Refreshing Toner

A toner is a summer essential for good reason. Not only does it help close open pores, but it also prevents future blemishes by tackling congestion. Our t-zone has the largest amount of sebaceous glands and can look like an oil slick during summer. Pay extra care to this area while toning your face.

7. Pick the right Moisturizer

With summer’s arrival, you’ll be switching heavy moisturisers for light-as-air alternatives. Don’t assume that your skin doesn’t need moisture in summer, it just needs something different. Summer skincare should provide hydration with a barely-there feel. Our 3-in-1 face cream can help you with that.

8. Drink Plenty of Water

The best thing you can do for your skin is also the easiest. Water. Drinking water keeps your skin supple, soft and incredibly radiant. Remember to increase your daily H20 during those scorching summer months. A simple 2 litres a day will keep you hydrated and detoxify your complexion. Your body and your skin will be forever thankful.

9. Remember to Take Care of Your Feet

Let’s not forget to treat the ones who carry the most. Our feet are often overlooked but deserve the same care you give everything else. Cleanse, exfoliate and hydrate those hard workers every week. Don’t forget sunscreen if you’re wearing open shoes.
