The skin is composed of 70% water and 30% minerals, fats and proteins. When these substances are missing or are not present in sufficient amount, especially with the sun and the warm wind, the water balance is compromised.

To keep the skin supple and smooth during this season, it is necessary to follow a proper hydrating routine to limit the loss of water and mineral salts, as well as to contain the harmful action of UV rays.

4 TIPS FOR A PERFECT SUMMER SKINCARE:

CLEANSING

In summer we need to clean skin even more, but without attacking it. You need a mild cleanser which removes impurities, residues of sunscreen, saltiness.... A well cleansed skin will better accept other treatments.

EXFOLIATION

No, exfoliation doesn’t take the tan off! Doing it once a week will eliminate dead cells, stimulates cell renewal and keep the tan longer. The exfoliation should be light and not aggressive, in order to obtain an immediate homogeneous, compact and glowy complexion. In addition, it promotes the subsequent action of moisturizing products. The recommended time for exfoliation is during the PM skincare routine. 

HYDRATION

Use a good moisturizing serum with specific active ingredients, best if compatible with the water molecules present in the dermis. In this way, the skin can receive a deep hydration and the epidermis water balance will be assured, even if you will expose yourself many hours to the sun. 

PROTECTION

The skin must be always protected from UV rays. Applying sunscreen prevents sunburn, but also other issues like premature aging, irritation and dehydration.
