How to Achieve a Healthy Skin Glow
Hydration is Key
Glowing skin starts from the inside. Do your skin a lot of good by drinking enough water throughout the day. Hydration helps maintain your skin’s elasticity, flushes out toxins, and gives your skin a plump and radiant appearance.
Sunscreen to the Rescue!
Don’t ever joke about the power of sunscreen! Exposure to UV rays can be harmful to your skin over time. Apply sunscreen with the right amount of SPF (at least SPF 30) regularly, especially on exposed parts of your body, when you want to go out.
Cleanse with Care
Cleansing is a vital step in any skincare routine, especially during the summer when sweat, dirt, and excess oil can accumulate on your skin. Choose a gentle cleanser that suits your skin type and thoroughly cleanse your face twice a day. This helps remove impurities, unclog pores, and pave the way for a radiant glow.
Exfoliate
Exfoliate once or twice a week to rejuvenate your skin. It helps slough off dead skin cells, allowing your skin to breathe and absorb other skincare products more effectively. There is such a thing as over-exfoliating, so please avoid it as it can strip your skin of its natural oils.
Lightweight Moisturisers
Gather here, oily skinned people; this is especially for you. Opt for oil-free alternatives during the summer. Look for water based moisturisers that contain hyaluronic acid or glycerin. They lock moisture in without making you feel greasy. Don’t forget to moisturise your lips too with a lip balm.
Embrace a Balanced Diet
Sounds almost like a broken record now, right? But no matter how many times you hear it, it doesn’t change the fact that this is key to achieving good skin. Nourish your skin from the inside out by incorporating a balanced diet into your lifestyle.
Minimal Makeup, Maximum Glow
During the summer, embrace the beauty of simplicity by opting for a lighter makeup routine. Let your skin breathe and show off its natural glow. If you prefer wearing makeup, go for light, breathable products.
