With the arrival of summer and the heat, our skin is much more exposed, both when going to the beach or the pool to bathe or sunbathe, and when wearing lighter clothing (short sleeves, etc.) to better cope with the intense heat. However, we all know that exposure to sunlight without adequate protection, especially ultraviolet, can be very harmful to our skin, which is both aesthetically affected, damaging the skin and favouring the appearance of wrinkles more prematurely, as with regards to health, increasing the risk of suffering such serious pathologies as skin cancer, among others. Therefore, it is essential to give proper care and protection to our skin to keep it young and healthy. Here are some basic tips to care for and protect our skin when summer arrives:
Try to avoid sun exposure during the middle of the day.
Solar radiation is more harmful during the middle of the day, so it is advisable to treat not to expose yourself during these hours to the sun, even if we are using sunscreen.
Be careful also in the water or when the sky is cloudy
Contrary to what it may seem, clouds pass most of the ultraviolet radiation (around 80%), so we should use the same sunscreen also on those days when the sky is cloudy. Something similar happens if we go into the water: it lets a lot of ultraviolet radiation pass, so we still have to protect our skin from the sun.
Keep your skin hydrated
With the increase in temperatures, the dehydration of our skin also increases. To keep it well hydrated, in addition to increasing the intake of water, which is also recommended for our general health, helping us to prevent heatstroke, we can also use various moisturizers for our skin, or even use water vaporizers to refresh and hydrate our skin when we feel it drier.
Clean and exfoliate our skin
Exfoliating our skin from time to time is advisable since this cleansing will help us to eliminate fat, residues and dead cells. As a result, we will have a finer and silkier skin, improving the results of the treatments and care that we apply afterwards. Starting in spring, it is a good time to do your facial cleansing and skincare routines more frequently, to remove sweat and cream residue.
In addition, you can opt for faster and safer methods so that you can obtain those results that you so desire and have radiant skin. At VLCC
