Top 10 Summer Skincare Essentials You Should Invest In
Take a pencil and a paper (or open your notes app) to write down this list, because it will ensure you have all the right skincare products for your summer getaway.
Sunscreen
See how it tops the list! Because sunscreen is the most important and non-negotiable product to have during summers. When the sun is shining brighter than ever, your skin needs to be protected from the harmful UV rays that cause tanning, sunburn, pigmentation and risk of cancer.
Moisturizer
Summer sun is known to dehydrate everything it touches (it feels so hot). Moisturisers provide the skin some replenishment. Like a wilted plant soaking up rain, the skin absorbs the nourishment provided by moisturisers and feels soft and balanced.
Serum
A serum helps beat and protect against environmental damage. This makes hydrating serums a must have for summers. A vitamin C serum helps reduce dullness, provides hydration, fades dark spots and brightens the skin.
Cleanser
When your skin sweats so much in summers (you're lucky if you don't sweat much), it becomes necessary to use a cleanser twice a day. It helps remove dirt, excess oil, sweat and other impurities from the skin. A gentle cleanser ensures a clean skin without stripping moisture.
Scrub
Scrubs are also a must have for summer skincare. Exfoliating 2 to 3 times a week will help control oil production, prevent clogged pores and promote a radiant complexion. It'll also allow your skin to better absorb other skincare products effectively.
Facial Mist
After a tiring time out in the sun, using a facial mist makes your skin feel brand new. They are water-based sprays that are designed to hydrate your skin during hot summer days. Once you experience what a steal facial mists are, you wont regret investing in one.
Body Gel
Body gels give a cooling feeling to warmed up skin after being out in the sun. The best and highly recommended is to use an aloe vera gel that heals sunburn and skin inflammation leaving your skin feeling calm and soothing.
SPF Lip Balm
Making sure your face is protected from the sun but forgetting about your lips? Not cool! Lips are prone to getting sun damaged. SPF Lipbalms protect against chapping, pigmentation and peeling.
SPF Body Lotion
The body too, has to face the unforgiving summer heat. Your body needs an SPF body lotion that will not only moisturise it but also protect it from sun damage.
Wet Wipes
To complete it off, wet wipes are your perfect companion during summer. They help wipe off dirt, sweat, oil, makeup from your face and body. It's a quick & easy way to freshen your skin up on-the-go.
