Summer can be brutal on your skin, specially after turning 30. With all the hormonal imbalances, your skin suffers the most. Not only is it important to take care of your skin topically but, beauty needs to be enhanced from within too. Eating right, drinking plenty of water, exercising, getting enough sleep and having a beauty regime and sticking to it, becomes a must.
I have partnered with Vanity Planet to bring to you five summer skincare tips, that one needs to adopt today, to have a youthful looking skin tomorrow.
Deep cleanse : This is the most important step in any skincare routine. On an average 25% of women skip the nightly routine of cleaning their skin, which was put through don't know what extent of brutality during the day. Not only do you need to get that gunk out, a deep cleaning becomes essential . This 'SPIN FOR PERFECT SKIN 'system is definitely the most efficient way to getting that deep clean. Using the small soft attachment, message your cleansing balm gently, using a circular motion, onto your skin. Don't push too, using soft circular motion, work your balm into your skin. Sixty seconds of this is good enough, thereafter which, rinse off with cold water and dab excess water with a soft towel.
Exfoliate: You must have heard about this a gazillion times, and probably have the same no. of questions pertaining to the right way of doing it. Well, based on your skin type you need to exfoliate at least 2-3 times a week. In case of oily skin three times is a must and in case you have dry skin, once a week is sufficient. Using a good exfoliating scrub is the key. I use the soft bristle attachment for this too, but this time I squeeze out some scrub directly on the brush and massage using gentle circular motion. I then finish off with a thorough water rinse.
Glycolic peel: Try to alternate this with your exfoliating routine. Once a week, in between your exfoliation days, use a good glycolic peel. GP helps to remove the upper layers of dead and damaged skin and encourage skin cell regeneration. This type of peel provides gentle treatment for fine lines, acne, chronic dry skin, and uneven pigmentation. This becomes a must in your thirties and thereafter. Moisturize: Keeping your skin hydrated is not optional. Finding the right formula based on your skin type, will go a long way in enhancing skin health. Use a daytime moisturizer, preferably with SPF for that extra coverage and protection. For the night, use one that helps repair skin damage, while you catch up on your ZZZZZZ's .
Stay hydrated- Make a deliberate effort to drink plenty of water and consume food items like fruits and greens that have high water content. Stay hydrated from within and your skin will thank you, today and everyday.
