4 basic tips for pre-summer skin care

With the arrival of good weather and rising temperatures, we must prepare the skin well to minimize damage to external factors such as exposure to the sun after a long time without doing so

To maintain a radiant and flawless complexion, we need to adopt a daily routine to take care of our skin. That's why the Éclair team proposes 4 basic routines to care for and moisturize our skin

EXFOLIATION

It is the first step to have a soft and beautiful skin. The ideal would be to do it all year round, but now is a good time to start renewing the skin

Using an exfoliating scrub will help us to rejuvenate the skin, will give us elasticity and softness and will favor the tan, being more resistant to the sun

In this section, it should be noted that exfoliation should not be done in the same way and with the same product in areas with skin as different as that of the face compared to the body

For the face, it is better to use a softer and more delicate exfoliant such as a face cleanser or micellar water. If the exfoliation is for the body, the texture is usually stronger and foamier, leaving the skin more resistant, firmer and softer to the touch

In our cosmeticssection, you have all the products. In any case, to make it easier for you, here are some of our recommended products.

HYDRATATION

This step is key to the health of our skin, and should never be missing in any daily routine. Not only if we have dry skin, it also affects those of us with thick or even normal skin

The benefits of moisturizing every day are many: smoother skin, we slow down the aging process of the skin, preventing wrinkles, the skin glows and shines naturally and we prevent dryness, nourishing and moisturizing the skin

Therefore, a good hydration of the skin is essential as a protective layer against aggressive external agents as in this case the sun

In summer we want a lighter, fresher and more appetizing moisturizing, since with the heat and the excess of sweat, greasy textures are not very advisable. The best option for this time of the year are watery creams, which are more refreshing and comfortable for the skin

An example would be the Hydra-Essentiel SPF15 cream from Clarins or the firming cream Rêve de Thé by Nuxe.

SUN PROTECTION

It is very important to protect yourself from the sun every day, regardless of the weather conditions and whether or not we go to the beach. In the summer season we spend many hours exposed to the sun without being aware of it

For this reason, we recommend that you use a moisturizing cream with sun protection for your face in your daily life to keep you hydrated in any circumstance and to help you restore the luminosity of your skin, filling it with energy

Two good examples would be the Mineral Radiance Day from Ahava or Hydra Zen from Lancôme.

For sun exposure, there are several products with a non-greasy finish that will not leave white marks on the skin. However, choose a high sunscreen and make sure that the cream protects against UVA and UVB rays. Don't hesitate to use after-sun treatments as well

NUTRITION

And last but not least, it is important to have a good lifestyle along with a healthy diet and drink enough water during the day, especially in this summer season

Fruits and vegetables are a perfect ally to rejuvenate our body, besides being a source of antioxidants for the body that helps us to fight the climatic changes of the weather

Some foods that favor to improve the appearance of the skin and enhance the tan would be: carrot, pumpkin, and apricot, as well as green leaves of spinach, zucchini, broccoli, asparagus and melon
