With the advent of summer, our skin gets prone to more damages and issues and screams for protection all throughout. Summer skincare is really important. What basically happens in summer is that our skin starts producing excess sebum leading to blocked pores and ultimately, acne breakouts. When your skin is exposed to the harmful UV rays, melanin production increases, resulting in darker, tanned skin. From switching up the amount of SPF in your sunscreen to regularly moisturising your skin, your skincare routine definitely needs to change according to the changing season. With that said, it's essential that you up your skincare game right away to stay away from unwanted summer skin issues. Hence, we have curated a list of amazing summer skincare tips that will come in handy when the temperatures soar up.

1. For Oily Skin
Oily skin faces maximum skin problems during the summer months. Use a face wash suited to your skin type and give more time to exfoliation that can deep cleanse and remove all the dirt. You can invest in a lightweight, non-sticky moisturiser and a mattifying sunscreen. You can use a mud-based face mask to get rid of dead cells, excess sebum and to reduce the oiliness.
2. For Combination Skin
You can opt for mild, alcohol-free, gel-based cleansers. Go for a non-sticky, grease free moisturiser or a hydrating serum instead to give your skin enough nutrients followed by a mattifying sunscreen.
Stick to a summer skincare routine and follow it everyday
3. For Dry Skin
The ones with dry skin may switch to lightweight, hydrating milks and lotions for your cleansing, moisturising and sun protection needs. These won't leave any greasy residue on your skin and will soak right in.
4. For Normal Skin
Like dry skin, normal skin is not very affected during summer. You can go for a gel-based face wash and light moisturiser that works for you to keep it feeling and looking fresh. You can also try a hydrating face mask and mattifying sunscreen.

5. Special Summer Tips
Hydration is key at all times during summer. You can use a hydrating face cream for extra hydration while you sleep. Coconut water, watermelons, and fresh juices are also good ways to stay hydrated. Practice a basic CTM routine twice a day that will help keep your skin clean and fresh. Always make sure to invest in a good sunscreen with SPF 30-50 as it is vital for the summer months for all skin types, even if you stay indoors most of the time. Another important ingredient for summers is vitamin C. Add a few drops of vitamin C serum on your skin between cleansing and moisturizer.
