As the temperature rises, and the sun shines brighter, summer is undoubtedly a fun-filled season. However, it's not always sunshine and rainbows for your skin. Summer brings with it a host of skin problems like sunburn, sweat-induced breakouts, rashes, and more.

Fortunately, there are plenty of things you can do to protect your skin and keep these problems at bay. Here are some tips to keep your skin healthy and glowing all summer long.

Stay Hydrated
One of the most crucial things you can do for your skin in the summer is to stay hydrated. Drinking plenty of water can help keep your skin looking plump and healthy, prevent dryness and flakiness, and flush out toxins that can lead to breakouts.

Aim to drink at least eight glasses of water a day, and consider adding hydrating foods like watermelon, cucumbers, and berries to your diet.

Wear Sunscreen
Protecting your skin from the sun's harmful UV rays is a must-do in the summer. Sunscreen helps prevent sunburn, premature aging, and skin cancer.

Choose a broad-spectrum sunscreen with an SPF of at least 30, and apply it liberally to all exposed skin, including your face, neck, ears, and hands. Remember to reapply every two hours or after swimming or sweating.

Exfoliate
Summer can be a challenging time for your skin, with sweat, dirt, and grime clogging your pores. Exfoliating can help remove dead skin cells, unclog pores, and leave your skin looking fresh and glowing.

Use a gentle exfoliating scrub once or twice a week, and be sure to follow up with a hydrating moisturizer to keep your skin soft and supple.

Moisturize
Even if your skin feels oily or greasy in the summer, it still needs moisture to stay healthy. Choose a lightweight, oil-free moisturizer that won't clog your pores, and apply it daily to keep your skin hydrated and supple.

To help lock in moisture for several hours, look for products that contain hyaluronic acid, probiotic actives, saccharide isomerate, niacinamide, and most importantly, PENTAVITIN® that’s clinically proven to boost skin moisture by 275% after a single application and provide instant & deep hydration lasting upto 72 hours.

Take Cool Showers
Hot showers may feel relaxing, but they can strip your skin of its natural oils, leaving it dry and itchy. Instead, take cool showers to soothe your skin and prevent moisture loss. If you can't give up your hot showers, try to limit them to five or ten minutes.

Moisturize your skin immediately afterward with a body lotion that contains ingredients such as sea buckthorn & hemp for hydration & relief from itching or irritation, avocado oil for deep moisturizing, and PENTAVITIN® that boosts skin moisture by 275% after a single application and hydration that lasts for upto 72 hours.

Protect Your Lips
Your lips are one of the most vulnerable areas of your skin, and they can easily become dry, cracked, and sunburned in the summer. Protect them by using a lip balm with an SPF of at least 15, and reapply it frequently throughout the day.

Look for balms that contain nourishing ingredients like shea butter, coconut oil, or vitamin E.

Use Antioxidants
Antioxidants like vitamin C and E can help protect your skin from free radical damage caused by sun exposure and pollution. Look for skincare products that contain these ingredients, and incorporate them into your daily routine to keep your skin healthy and glowing.

Be Gentle
In the summer, your skin may be more sensitive than usual, so it's essential to be gentle when washing or drying it. Use a gentle, non-drying cleanser to remove dirt and sweat, and pat your skin dry with a soft towel instead of rubbing it.

Avoid using harsh scrubs or exfoliants, and be sure to wear loose, breathable clothing that won't irritate your skin.

Protect Your Eyes
Your eyes are another area of your skin that can be vulnerable to the sun's UV rays. To protect them, wear sunglasses with UV protection whenever you're outside, and consider using an eye cream with SPF to keep the delicate skin around your eyes safe.

Watch Your Diet
What you eat can have a significant impact on your skin's health, especially in the summer. Avoid greasy or fried foods, which can contribute to oily skin and breakouts, and opt for fresh fruits and vegetables instead. Foods rich in antioxidants, like berries and leafy greens, can help protect your skin from sun damage and keep it looking healthy and glowing.

In conclusion, summer is a time to enjoy the outdoors and soak up the sun, but it's also a time to be mindful of your skin's health.

By following these tips, you can keep your skin looking healthy, radiant, and problem-free all season long. Remember to stay hydrated, protect your skin from the sun, exfoliate and moisturize regularly, and be gentle when washing and drying your skin.

With a little bit of effort and care, you can breeze through the summer with beautiful, glowing skin.
