10 tips for skin care in summer

When summer comes, it is also time to show a little more skin because the weather is conducive to wear lighter clothes, especially if we are going to be on the beach.

As we are more exposed to the sun at this time, we must know how to take care of ourselves.

We share 10 tips to take care of your skin in summer:

1. Sunscreen
It is advisable to use sunscreen daily in all areas that you will expose to the sun. Apply the product between 20 and 30 minutes before exposure and repeat every 2 hours, or when leaving the water.

2. Complements
Do not forget to use other protective measures such as the use of lipstick with SPF 15, sunglasses and hats.

3. Appropriate clothing

Use light and light clothing, which covers most of the body, so you will avoid the direct action of the sun.

4. Schedule for sunbathing
It is important to try to avoid sunlight from 10 in the morning until 17 hours since at that time the rays are stronger. If you can't avoid exposure, don't forget the sunscreen, hat, and sunglasses.

5. Hydration
In addition to avoiding dehydration so common in summer, drinking water will allow you to maintain the hydration that your skin needs to look soft.
To keep the skin hydrated on the outside, it is ideal to use a refreshing spray lotion that you can use during the day.

6. Face cleaning
You must clean your face 2 times a day without fail since in summer perspiration is greater and the pores can be clogged.

7. Exfoliation
In summer - as in the rest of the year - it is important to exfoliate to remove dead skin cells and allow their regeneration. This beauty routine will help you have smooth skin.

8. Moisturizer
It is important to use a water-based moisturizer both on the face and on the body, this will keep the skin hydrated without the generation of a film of fat on the surface.

9. Eliminate sodas
Even if you are tempted by heat, avoid consuming soda, as these are some of those responsible for the appearance of cellulite and dehydration of the skin.

10. Watch your skin
If you see any change in your skin (color, texture, moles or abnormal spots) do not hesitate to consult with your doctor.

If any alteration of the skin - aesthetic or medical - is detected in time, there is a greater chance that the treatments will work.
