Essential Summer Skincare Tips

Did you know the dry and humid weather of summer can deteriorate your skin by stripping off natural oils, freshness, and glow? Some people are prone to developing blackheads and acne on their skin, which leaves behind scars and blemishes. Try out these summer skincare tips for a healthy looking glow:

 

Exfoliate and Cleanse 

Be sure that you have a gentle exfoliator and cleanser in your skincare routine. Exfoliators work wonders in getting rid of dry and flaky skin texture to make it appear more radiant and healthy. Once you have exfoliated your skin, use a cleanser to remove impurities and dirt from your skin. For the best results, you should exfoliate your skin three times a week, followed by cleansing. At Springs Body Sculpting, we carry a medical-grade skin care line called Dermodality. Dermodality has top of the line products including cleansers and exfoliators. 

 

Hydrate & Tone

Add a toner to your skincare routine. We offer a calming, alcohol-free and fragrance-free solution that incorporates Mandelic Acid, allantoin, chamomile and aloe to replenish the skin’s moisture while protecting against daily environmental factors that cause dryness and dehydration in the skin. 

 

Protect Your Skin

Be sure and use sunscreen that can protect your skin from the harmful effects of the sun. You can use a lightweight sunblock so that your skin stays protected. Sunmoist SPF 30 by Dermodality is non-greasy, lightweight, fully absorbing sunblock containing Zinc and Titanium Dioxide. SunMoist may be used as a replacement for a daily moisturizer for normal to oily skin types. Designed to leave your skin moisturized and always protected.

Use the above mentioned summer skincare tips to achieve soft, supple and healthy skin this summer.
