5 Simple Skincare Tips to Prepare for Your Summertime Routine

To keep your skin looking and feeling its best as summer approaches, you may need a simple routine that you can rely on, or to tweak the products you’re currently using. Products such as a vitamin C serum and zinc oxide sunscreen are two that may be particularly helpful for maintaining healthier-looking skin and helping minimize visible signs of sun damage, respectively. Use the following tips to determine what may benefit your skin the most (and when) as summer approaches.

Green Tea Mask

DAILY: CLEANSE AND TONE FOR PROPER PREP

Getting a great cleanse that doesn’t strip your skin is an important first step in your daily routine. Choose a gentle, non-abrasive cleanser for your skin type and follow with a gentle toner. Toners are applied after washing your face and before serums and moisturizers. They help visibly refresh the skin and get it prepared for skincare products designed to visibly moisturize. You can find the ideal toner to meet your skin’s needs no matter what your skin type is.

WEEKLY: APPLY A GREEN TEA MASK FOR VISIBLE NOURISHMENT

Once or twice a week, try applying a thin layer of a high-quality facial mask, such as a green tea mask. A product designed to visibly nourish and purify may also help the skin’s overall visible appearance and deliver essential nutrients at the same time. Ingredients like green tea, aloe vera, and sea clay come together nicely to help your skin look hydrated and visibly healthier overall.

MORNING: GET YOUR VITAMIN C SERUM ON

Vitamin C is a powerhouse antioxidant and an ingredient to consider adding to your morning routine in the form of a vitamin C serum. Applying a vitamin C serum followed by a zinc oxide sunscreen may be an effective way to help encourage a radiant-looking complexion and help protect it from UV rays, respectively. In the morning, apply a dime-sized amount of vitamin C serum and let your skin absorb it—and then apply your moisturizer.

ALWAYS: WEAR YOUR DAILY SUN PROTECTION

With the sun’s rays coming on stronger and stronger with summer on the horizon, adding a zinc oxide sunscreen as the last step of your morning skincare routine should be a non-negotiable. It’s important to have a clean, antioxidant-rich mineral sunscreen that offers protection from UV rays. A high-quality product should blend well and also help prevent sun damage. Sunscreen is the most essential product to protect your skin from the sun’s rays—year-round.

WEEKLY: EXFOLIATE REGULARLY, BUT BE GENTLE

Sweat and sunscreen are a big part of the upcoming summer season, so you may find it beneficial to gently exfoliate weekly to remove buildup that may potentially clog pores. A clean, high-quality exfoliator for your skin type can cleanse the skin without harsh ingredients. Weekly exfoliation may be helpful in revealing a visibly smoother, refined-looking complexion. Whether you have dry, oily, sensitive, or blemish-prone skin, you can find the right exfoliator for you.

Hot, humid weather can affect everyone’s skin differently, and more time spent in the long daylight hours may also necessitate changes to your skincare routine. Let the above tips help you enjoy the season ahead while keeping visibly healthier-looking skin in mind.
