What cosmetic products should we use in the summer?

Heat, wind, sun, sea water, air conditioning... all these can have a very damaging effect on your skin. How to take care of it in the summer? First, use the right cosmetics for your skin.

Of course, apart from the care base, which includes makeup removal, cleansing, moisturizing and sun protection, it is also worth introducing a product containing antioxidants, for example vitamin C.

Sun protection not only in summer

UV radiation has a huge impact on the appearance of our skin. In the summer, we should put a lot of emphasis on sun protection - excessive exposure to the sun significantly accelerates the aging process. Of course, we recommend using sunscreen all year round, as the skin is also exposed to UVA radiation in autumn and winter.

The sun damages the DNA of the skin, and the tan is actually the body's defense reaction to protect the skin from burning. Many of us aren't entirely keen on applying sunscreen daily because we're worried that the product will be heavy and bleach the skin - so we've got a product proposition for you that we hope will make your daily sunscreen routine more pleasant.

ISNTREE AIRY SUN STICK - contains 8 types of hyaluronic acid and botanical extracts, bamboo water, pine and algae extracts, aloe vera, with a soothing and refreshing role, the stick from Isntree is the ideal choice for the eye area, lips, skin fat.

SUNTIQUE I'M MEDI 100% ZINC SUN - contains zinc oxide and offers excellent physical protection against all types of UV rays (UVA / UVB). This sunscreen also contributes to strengthening the skin barrier and regulating sebum production. In addition, due to its soothing and moisturizing properties, it is suitable for dry, irritated and sensitive skin.

MARY & MAY CICA SOOTHING SUN CREAM - a moisturizing vegan sunscreen that provides broad spectrum SPF 50 for the face without leaving a white cast behind. Light texture with fast absorption, which applies easily to the skin.

Antioxidation in summer care

UV radiation also causes the formation of oxygen free radicals that damage collagen and elastin. In addition to sun protection, it is worth paying attention to antioxidants in cosmetics:

• C vitamin

GOODAL GREEN TANGERINE VITA C TONER PAD - Face pads combined with arbutin (natural skin lifter) and niacinamide (vitamin B), Vita C serum and cream work to provide long-lasting hydration and a brighter, more even skin tone .

• Vitamin E

DEAR, KLAIRS FRESHLY JUICED VITAMIN E MASK - enriched with vitamin E that has antioxidant effects, the cream reduces wrinkles and prevents the appearance of signs of aging. Used during the day, the cream protects the skin from UV rays, and during the night it helps regenerate skin cells.

• ferulic acid

CLIV HEXAPEPTIDE REPAIRING AMPOULE - is a revitalizing ampoule that fills the skin with vitality and works as an anti-aging treatment against wrinkles.

Antioxidants eliminate the effects of free radicals, so they cannot damage healthy skin cells. Therefore, in everyday care, we recommend using cosmetic products containing antioxidants.

Skin hydration

In the summer, it is also worth remembering about proper skin hydration. Many times, during this period, we decide to use creams with a light texture, which do not burden the skin too much.

IUNIK CENTELLA CALMING GEL CREAM - is formulated with 70% Asian centella water, 10% tea tree water and 6 botanical extracts. The ingredients work together to hydrate and soothe the skin, as well as reduce irritation and redness, providing nutrients and antioxidants to restore and strengthen the skin's protective barrier.

Dr. CEURACLE VEGAN KOMBUCHA TEA GEL CREAM - is a nutrient-rich, fast-hydrating moisturizer for dehydrated, tired or dull-looking skin. Formulated with 20% fermented black tea extract (Kombucha) to help strengthen the moisture barrier while balancing oil production. It also contains 58.9% Camellia sinensis (green tea) leaf water, which has protective antioxidant benefits while soothing any irritation. Together, these two powerful ingredients deliver a nourishing concentration of tannins, amino acids and proteins that boost the skin's overall appearance of plumpness and suppleness. Added vitamin-rich omija fruit extract provides a natural pink tint.

With a properly selected care plan and, above all, with adequate sun protection, the spring and summer period does not have to be the time when we give up our favorite active ingredients. We hope this post will show you how to properly care for your skin during the sunny months.
