Your Guide to Summer Skincare

Sunflower Oil

Summer is the time of the year when most people want to spend as much time outside as possible soaking up the sun’s rays. It is only natural that clothing becomes skimpier at this time of year, exposing large areas of the skin directly to the sun. However, this can cause the skin to become dry and irritated and it is important to protect the skin as much as possible. Rather than simply reaching for bronzing oils and sun blocks, there are also some great natural products available that nourish the skin while also protecting it from the sun.

Avocado Oil

Natural sun lotions containing avocado oil are great at repairing the damage caused by prolonged exposure to the sun’s rays. Avocado oil contains high levels of vitamins A, D and E that nourish dry and damaged skin. Whether you are feeling the burn from being in the sun for too long or simply want to supply your skin with the vitamins that it needs to stay young and healthy, reaching for natural skin care products that contain avocado oil is the perfect solution to your dry skin blues.

Sunflower Oil

The high vitaminSunflower Oil E content in sunflower oil is essential for preventing damage to the skin cells caused by exposure to the ultraviolet light or UVA from the sun. Vitamin E helps to improve the appearance and health of the skin by preventing scarring as well as the smoothing of existing wrinkles, leaving the skin soft, supple, younger-looking and younger-feeling.

Black Sesame Oil

After spending a lot of time in the sun, the skin is likely to red and can also be dry and itchy. Natural body lotions and balms containing black sesame oil help to nourish the skin and leave it moisturized, while the special lotion can also help to protect the skin from the ultraviolet rays of the sun that can damage the skin.

Makeup Tricks for Dry Skin

GET HYDRATED

People who suffer from dry skin will know all too well that it can often feel itchy and uncomfortable and there are times when moisturizing simply doesn’t seem to get the job done. Fortunately, there are plenty of ways that those in the know can give their dry skin a new lease of life without having to reach for the cocoa butter every five minutes.

Get Hydrated

GET HYDRATEDStaying hydrated is key and most people don’t drink as much water as they need to. Reaching for the water any time that the skin feels a little dry will help to hydrate the body from the inside, while eating fruits and vegetables that have a high water content will also help to do the job.

Avoid Harsh Cleansing Routines

While cleansing is a good way to remove dirt and bacteria from the skin, using harsh cleansers can strip the natural oils from the skin that it needs to stay hydrated and healthy. People who have dry skin should choose oil based cleansers that contain natural ingredients such as almond oil, olive fruit and jojoba.

Pay Attention to Skin Prep

In order to keep flaky skin at bay it is essential to follow a exfoliation routine. Finding a good moisturizer is also essential for people who have dry skin and the moisturizer should be applied both in the morning and at night.

Moisturize when Applying Foundation

Many types of foundations can dry out the skin, especially if they are not suited to the specific skin type of the person who is applying the foundation. It is best to spend a little time testing out different types of foundations and select one that is designed for dry skin that will moisturize the skin while also providing flawless cover.

Choose Hydrating Lip Balms

The lips can also get very dry, especially in the winter. Lip balms are an ideal way to moisturize the lips and a thin layer of lip balm can be applied underneath lipstick if desired.
