How To Take Care Of Your Skin During Hot Summer Time

The summer is a time for fun in the sun, but it can also be an uncomfortable experience if you do not protect your skin. The heat and humidity can cause dryness, itchiness, irritation, or inflammation. Sun exposure results in ageing and discolouration of the skin. Worrying about your skin? Follow these tips and enjoy this summer.

SAY YES TO SPF!

Dermatologists recommend protecting your skin all year round. One of the best ways to do this is by wearing sunscreen on a daily basis, but choose one that has a Sun Protection Factor (SPF) 30 or higher SPF and provides broad-spectrum protection from both UVA rays (ultraviolet A) and UVB rays (infrared B) in order to be completely covered. Do it especially if you have light skin tone, very fair skin, or a history of sun sensitivity.

THE ORGANIC PHARMACY Cellular Protection Sun Cream SPF 50

In order to prepare your skin for hot summertime weather, apply a broad-spectrum mineral sunscreen with extracts of Aloe Vera, Shea Butter, Rose Hip and Calendula. This product will provide gentle hydration while providing sun protection for all skin types. Apply sunscreen every two hours under the sun.

LIMIT YOUR EXPOSURE TO THE SUN

It’s also important to limit your exposure to the sun by wearing clothing and hats during peak hours (between 11:00 AM and 03:00 PM). If you have prolonged periods in the sunlight, wear protective clothing such as long trousers and sleeves that cover most of your body.

You should also apply sunscreen about thirty minutes before you go out in the sun, and apply it again every two hours or after you’ve been swimming.

DO NOT FORGET ABOUT YOUR BODY, SCALP AND HAIR

When using sunscreen, make sure to use a generous amount – enough for your face alone. And don’t forget other areas of skin like hands/feet, your neckline and ears! Scalp and hairline are also susceptible to sunburn.

CHEMICAL VS. MINERAL SUNSCREEN

Hot summer days can be hard on your skin. Chemical sunscreens are the most common type of sunscreen. They contain organic molecules, such as avobenzone and oxybenzone that absorb into the skin, converts ultraviolet rays to heat, and releases them from your body.

Chemical sunscreen is a better option if you need one that penetrates the skin quickly and does not wash off when swimming, sweating, or participating in sports.

The active ingredients of mineral sunscreen are titanium dioxide and zinc oxide, which sit on top of your skin and reflect some of the sun’s rays. This is the best option if you have sensitive skin, are pregnant, breastfeeding, or allergic to avobenzone and octinoxate: they are less irritating and more moisturising than chemical sunblocks.

If you’re looking for a gentle yet effective sunscreen option that is good for sensitive skins or those with allergies to chemical components, mineral sunscreens may be perfect!

USE NATURAL SKINCARE INGREDIENTS TO PROTECT SKIN

SUNSCREENS TEXTURES

The texture of your sunscreen product is very important during the hot summertime. Creams and lotions tend to be the most popular, but they can feel heavy on your skin if you’re perspiring a lot or in humid weather conditions. Gel-based sunscreens are good for these things because they don’t have a greasy texture like other products do – which means that they won’t make you sweat more.

Among summer skincare products are sprays or skin mists. These products offer the perfect solution for people who like to live spontaneously and are always on the go, but it’s important to avoid them if you have sensitive skin.

STAY HYDRATED!

Do not forget about hydration for your skin. Drink plenty of water to stay hydrated, and drink a ton more if you’re sweating. After washing your face at night, pat it dry with a soft towel instead of rubbing against any rough surfaces.

Knowing all these tips will help you take care of your skin during hot summertime and allow the fun to keep on going!
