The importance of keeping skin healthy in summer

Keeping every aspect of our body as healthy as possible is a must; putting health and happiness first is key. Our skin is introduced to change on a regular basis, through use of different skin care to the seasons changing and our skin reacting differently to the environment.

Summer brings somewhat new challenges as sudden temperature changes may take a toll on our skin. Through simple tasks such as keeping hydrated and using SPF products, it is important we take extra care of our skin.

Here are 5 top tips to keeping your skin healthy this summer.

1. Stay hydrated, H20 is your skin’s necessity

Keeping your skin hydrated this summer will maintain a healthy and radiant glow, whether it be consuming water as your daily drink, or incorporating foods in your diet that have a high concentration of water.

2. Use SPF products

Enjoy the beautiful summer sunshine but stay protected with SPF products. SPF can be found in most beauty products such as primers and moisturisers.

3. Gently exfoliate on a regular basis

There are an abundance of tools on offer for us to all enjoyably exfoliate our skin. From soft brushes to face wash products, exfoliating removes dry skin cells and enables us to achieve healthy skin.

4. Don’t forget to ZZZ…

Remember to get plenty of thorough sleep to not only ensure your mind is rested but to give your skin a break too. Lack of sleep may create stress hormones, which can make skin look drained.

5. Routine

Be sure to introduce a regular skincare routine into your day. Thorough washing, toning and moisturising before you sleep and once you have woken up will ensure your skin stays clean and fresh.
