Summer Ready Skincare —

It’s already mid-April — well, in just a few days that is. Can you believe it?

Time flies when you are living through diabolical times.

Ah. Hahahah. Hahahah.

I wish I was kidding.

You know what that means, don’t you?

Getting our skin ready by creating a summer-ready skincare routine.

Adjust for the Weather We Have

Adjusting for the weather we are having is the first step.

Maybe you use a less moisturizing cream in the spring and summer.

One way to do this is to introduce your lighter moisturizers to your day-time skincare slowly (now is a great time to start)

You can keep your night-time skincare going as is, or you can also opt for lighter-weight products for the evening as well. 

Make Sure You’re Double Cleansing

As the weather becomes warmer, so does the loosening of the debris and particles that frequent the air.

You’ll really want to make sure you’re getting any extra residue off of your face by sticking to a great double-cleansing skincare routine.

Double Cleansing Method

Typically, you start with an oil or cream-based cleanser.

This helps to break down any skincare and makeup you have from the day, and or skincare from the night before (before you go in with the official cleanse.

Think of this step as a pre-cleanse.

To read more about my latest oil-based cleanser, you can read that here.

Next, you’ll want to go in with your official cleanser of choice. I opt for Cetaphil, as it is a gentle cleanser and relatively cheap to add to one’s skincare regimen. 

Be Sure to Up the Sunscreen

This is by far the most important step for warm and sunny weather.

You should always wear sunscreen during the day all year, but you especially need it in the summertime.

As technology and education in skincare advance, it is to be noted that the best sunscreen is going to be a mineral sunscreen formula with non-comedogenic properties.

Invest in Layering Pieces and SPF Approved Sunglasses

When you think of layers, think of linen shirts, hats, sunglasses, and protective gear.

I would even say that aloe vera is a layering piece just in case you’ve had too much sun.

Protective Tops

Sunglasses

Those are all my tips.

Let me know if I missed anything in the comments.

Probably a lip gloss. Opt for a UV-approved lip gloss to protect your lips, and a great sunscreen for the rest of your body.

That’s all for now.

TTFN!
