Good evening Residents, I hope you are well ๐ซ
The sun has officially started to come out and the summer months are fast approaching, Iโm so ready for it!
This also means itโs time to transition our skincare from summer to winter, let me share some things you can do ๐ซ
๐ซTips
๐ซ During the winter we tend to feel drier and have a thicker moisturiser, try incorporating a more lightweight one or even a serum like Hydrating B5
๐ซ Use one of the 4 brilliant vitamin c serums for antioxidant protection, my personal favourite is Phloretin CF
๐ซ In summer our skin can get oilier due to sweat, I like using a mattifying SPF like our Oil Sheild SPF 50
๐ซ If you have pigmentation, use a tinted SPF like our Mineral Radiance SPF50 for extra protection
๐ซ Apply your SPF 20- 30 minutes before sun exposure
๐ซ Reapplying your SPF every 2-3 hours is a must!
๐ซ Remember to apply SPF to your ears, neck, and dรฉcolletage
๐ซ Use Phyto Corrective Essence Mist throughout the day to keep skin smooth, soothed, hydrated, plump, as well as repairing the skin barrier
๐ซ Wear a hat for extra protection for your skin and scalp
๐ซ Double cleanse in the evening to ensure all SPF is off as residue left on overnight can clog pores, I love using Simply Clean gel cleanser as it gently exfoliates the skin too
๐ซ Exfoliate 1-2 times a week to remove dead skin build up and improve product absorption, I like a nighttime treatment like our Glycolic 10 Renew Overnight
๐ซ Use a hydrating mask 1-2 times a week, as excessive sun exposure can weaken your skin barrier, I love using both our Phyto Corrective Masque and Hydrating B5 Masque
๐ซ During the summer months dark spots can appear darker or more can appear, use a targeted serum such as Discolouration Defence
So Residents, whatever youโre doing to enjoy the sun, whether itโs a walk in the park or a family trip to the beach, save these tips and stay sun safe!
Speak soon,
Love Amna
