Summer – a joyful time when people go on vacation or just go out of town to the river on weekends. Hot sun and water, friends and kebabs, wrinkles and age spots. What do these concepts have in common? Of course, all of them are united by one season – summer. It is during this period that your skin is exposed to the greatest danger and requires a special approach to caring for it. But unfortunately, many people make mistakes that are fraught with skin problems. Therefore, Estet-portal has selected for you ways to solve the most common summer skin care mistakes.
No sunglasses
Sunglasses are not just a stylish accessory. They are essential to protect your eyes from harmful UV radiation. If you're one of those people who occasionally forgets to wear sunglasses, think about how often you squint and what the consequences are. We are talking, of course, about the wrinkles around the eyes, also known as "crow's feet".
Hint: Always keep spare glasses at work/in the car, or make it a habit to wear a hat. But if you still do not like such accessories, do gymnastics for the eyes. This set of simple exercises will help you delay the appearance or smooth out existing wrinkles (and not just around the eyes).
Using sunscreen instead of moisturizer
Modern sun protection products contain a certain amount of moisturizer, so they can be used instead of lotions, you think? Not at all. Not all of these products moisturize the skin, and in some cases can make it more oily or vice versa dry. And while they should be used, you also need to make sure you moisturize your skin enough to keep it healthy.
Hint: When choosing a sunscreen that will properly hydrate your skin, make sure it contains the same ingredients as your moisturizer, or wash your face with micellar water throughout the day.
Lack of skin protection in the evening
The most dangerous period of time for your skin is from 10 am to 3 pm, but this does not eliminate the need to apply sunscreen before or after these time frames. Your skin can burn even in the evening, and relying only on clouds in this case is not advisable. Otherwise, you run the risk of becoming the owner of freckles or age spots, which, fortunately, can be eliminated with cosmetic procedures such as microdermabrasion.
Hint: no matter what time it is, if you see the sun outside, be sure to apply a small amount of the product to the skin of the face, neck and décolleté. Skin care in summer is not tied to the time of day, it should be constant.
The editors of Estet-portal hope that after the arguments we have given you will not make such mistakes. We sincerely hope that our advice will be useful to you and you will always look great at any time of the year.
