Your skin is exposed to extreme heat, then blasts of cold air conditioning and excessive humidity; basically it goes through everything problematic.Do not fret as we help you with some summer skin care tips that may come handy to you.
Here are summer skincare tips that you must follow to ensure a healthy skin this season.
1. Give yourself vitamin C boost
Vitamin C is responsible for maintaining healthy collagen, the supportive tissue of the skin that helps the skin keep healthy, firm and strong. Load up on vitamin C rich foods like orange, lemon, amla, grapefruits, tomato and green leafy vegetables among others.
2. Do not forget to exfoliate
It is essential to remove dead skin cells that damage your skin texture and give you an uneven skin tone. Use natural ingredients to exfoliate your skin, which may include coffee, yogurt, baking soda, sugar, et al.
3. Trust natural remedies only
Go natural! Do not trust commercial products to help you take care of the skin. Remember, these chemical laden products will only damage your skin in the long run. Instead, there are ingredients in your kitchen that can help soothe your skin during summer. Bring lemon and tomatoes to your rescue.
4. Forget everything, but sunscreen
Remember, sunscreen is the most important product you must use. Exposure to sun can damage your skin which can form wrinkles and fine lines. Prolonged exposure can also lead to dark spots or patches.
5. Do not ignore the eyes and lips
Your eyes and lips are the most exposed and the most neglected areas of your face. Whenever you step out of the house, make sure your eyes are covered with sunglasses and lips are loaded with sun protecting balm. Wash your eyes and lips with cold water once you come from outside.
6. Binge on cooling foods
Your diet also decides the glow on your face. Therefore, always eat seasonal fruits and vegetables that cool your body. Drink lots of water to reduce the temperature of the body that is exposed to the sun. Drink vegetables juices and coconuts water that will be the best electrolyte on a hot sunny day.
7. Stay hygienic
Overall hygiene also helps tackle the heat. Take a bath twice daily, which will not only keep your skin fresh but also help you stay away from summery lethargy.
Bring these summer skincare tips to your rescue and enjoy summers like never before!
