Skin Care Tips For This Summer

Check out the below skincare tips that include our best products

Moisturizer with SPF to Protect Your Skin

This summer, invest in a high-quality moisturizer with SPF in your skincare routine. It will protect your skin from harmful sun rays while maintaining essential moisture. By doing so, you'll prevent issues like discoloration, and hyperpigmentation, and even reduce the risk of skin cancer, minimizing the need for advanced treatment and further resulting in younger-looking skin. A good summer moisturizer will shield your skin from environmental aggressors and more.

Explore our collection for the best SPF moisturizers tailored to your skin's needs. Our Skin Defence Multi-Protection Light Essence SPF 50 PA +++ provides comprehensive protection against pollution and UVA/UVB rays, making it perfect for indoor and outdoor use. It’s non-comedogenic and gentle enough for sensitive skin, ensuring your skin stays healthy and radiant all summer long. The fast-absorbing non-greasy formula looks invisible, feels breathable & comfortable on the skin, and does not leave a white cast on the skin.

Refreshing Face Mist To Keep Your Skin & Body Hydrated

In addition to drinking plenty of water, enhance your summer routine with hydration-boosting products. A face mist is an essential addition to keep your skin and body hydrated in hot and humid weather. Spraying a face mist provides an instant burst of hydration and refreshment when temperatures soar.

Consider our Zesty Lime Blossom Hydrating Face & Body Mist. Enriched with vitamin C, it hydrates and brightens your skin, keeping it refreshed all summer. Made with 95% ingredients of natural origin and certified by The Vegan Society, this face mist is the perfect way to stay cool and radiant in the heat.

Protect Your Lips With SPF Lip balm

Lips are often the most neglected part of your face. This summer helps them protect from drying out in this harsh heat. The heat causes them to lose moisture, making them chapped and dry. The skin on your lips is thinner & more sensitive than the skin on your face or the rest of your body. As a result, they are always at risk of becoming dry & chapped, also vulnerable to sun damage from harmful UVA and UVB rays. Keeping your lips moisturized, hydrated, and protected throughout the summer is essential. Remember, caring for your lips is as important as taking care of your skin to ensure they stay soft, smooth, and healthy.

Try our Skin Defence Protective Lip Balm with SPF50+ PA++++ protection. The lip balm has the goodness of coconut oil, peppermint oil, rosehip oil, Vitamin E, and Vitamin C. It will make your lips feel ultra-conditioned and softer and protect against UVA/UVB rays with SPF50+.

Get Rid of Excessive Oil Using Cleansers

Cleansers are essential year-round, but they become particularly crucial during the summer. In hot and humid conditions, your facial pores open up, trapping sweat and airborne impurities.

This can lead to acne breakouts and uneven skin tone. Therefore, it's important to cleanse your skin twice daily to maintain a clear and healthy complexion.

If you are looking for Cleansers for Oily Skin, check out our Tea Tree Skin Clearing Facial Wash. It has the goodness of tea tree oil and salicylic acid. It is a gel-to-foam face wash that will cleanse with intense action and give a refreshing feel.

So, this summer, get ready to step out with confidence and maintain glowing, healthy skin all day long by incorporating our hero summer essentials into your routine. Add these must-have products to your summer skincare regimen and experience refreshed, radiant skin with zero sun damage.
