How to prepare your skin for the sun and summer: 4 Skincare tips to keep it healthy
The heat is coming and it's time to prepare our skin for the sun and the summer. In fact, with the arrival of the summer season, the desire to spend days at the beach or in the open air increases.
But is our skin ready to face this season?
With the increase in heat and humidity, our skin may need special attention to cope with the season in the best way possible.
The sun and exposure to the outdoors can have negative effects on the skin, such as dryness, scaling, and redness, so it's important to protect and nourish it properly.
To enjoy the beautiful days, preparing the skin for summer and protecting it from the sun is therefore essential to take care of it with a summer skincare routine that keeps it healthy and in perfect condition.
Let's discover how to prepare the skin for summer with the right products and treatments.
1. Cleansing and Exfoliation: the First Step for Perfect Skin
Before starting any summer skincare treatment, it's essential to remove makeup, dirt and dead cells that accumulate on the surface of the skin and prevent cellular renewal.
Cleansing is therefore the first necessary step to take, using gentle skin cleansers that clean deeply and give a feeling of freshness. For example, the Bifase Il Tempio della Salute makeup remover, based on thermal water, gently cleanses the skin tissue, leaving it clean, hydrated, and fragrant, ready to receive the next steps of the daily skincare routine.
To prepare the skin for summer, however, it's advisable to enrich the cleansing phase with the addition of an exfoliant. Regular exfoliation, done a couple of times a week, helps to deeply eliminate all impurities from the skin, improving its texture. It's important to use a gentle and non-aggressive scrub or gommage for the face and body. In this way, the skin will be ready to better absorb the next summer skincare products and to maintain the tan for a longer time.
2. Hydration: the Secret to Healthy and Elastic Skin
Maintaining the right hydration of the skin is important throughout the year, but becomes essential with the arrival of summer, when we tend to sweat a lot and exposure to the sun can cause dryness and irritations.
To maintain a correct water balance of the skin, in addition to regularly consuming water, it's important to also use moisturizing cosmetics suitable for your skin type.
In this context, the Décomposée moisturizing and restorative face cream Il Tempio della Salute can be an excellent ally in the daily beauty routine. Thanks to its intensely moisturizing and sun-protective formula (SPF 15), it can also be used during the summer months to protect the skin from the sun. Any skin type can easily absorb the composition of this product, leaving the face soft, nourished, and elastic, thanks to the presence of Ficus Opuntia extract and Salsomaggiore Fossil Saline-Bromine-Iodine Water.
3. Specific Treatments: the Key to Achieving Toned, Luminous, and Healthy Skin for Summer
After carefully exfoliating and moisturizing the skin, it's possible to use specific treatments for your skin needs and the goals you want to achieve.
In anticipation of summer, many people desire firmer and more toned skin, while also needing to restore radiance to their skin after the long winter.
To prepare the skin for summer, Il Tempio della Salute offers a wide range of specific treatments, here are some examples.
Remodeling Treatment for a Toned Appearance
Preparing for summer can mean wanting to improve the appearance of your body to wear swimsuits and lighter clothing with confidence.
In these cases, the remodeling treatment can be an excellent solution to achieve this goal, as it helps to reduce the presence of localized fat deposits and improve the tone of the skin.
The Thermoactive Cream Termogea is the ideal treatment in these cases because it helps to combat imperfections by using the heating benefits of mud. Its thermoactive formula combines selected active ingredients to act synergistically and has draining, reducing, absorbing, and purifying properties. It can be used on all skin types, except for the lower legs and arms. It's recommended to start applying it 1 or 2 times a week, preferably in the evening, and gradually increase the use up to daily application to achieve a remodeling and reducing effect.
However, it's important to emphasize that remodeling treatments should be combined with a proper diet and regular physical activity to achieve optimal and lasting results.
Illuminating Treatment for a More Radiant Face
Illuminating treatments help to even out the complexion, restoring luminosity and vitality to the skin. They are particularly useful for spring skincare and in preparation for summer when the skin can appear dull and gray due to long exposure to winter cold or daily stress.
The Gocce di Luce serum is suitable for this purpose because it evens out the complexion and gives radiance to all skin types. Its precious formulation contains Salsomaggiore Fossil Saline-Bromine-Iodine Water, which also provides remineralizing action. The serum is suitable for all skin types and can be used daily, morning and evening. Moreover, this cosmetic has multiple benefits, including its ability to plump, tone, and make the skin silky.
Eye Care: the Secret to a Radiant Look
The eye contour is a very delicate area and requires special attention. It's advisable to choose a light eye cream that can moisturize, decongest, and protect.
Among the water-based products, an ingredient particularly suitable for its soothing properties, there is the Expression anti-wrinkle cream with toning, elasticizing, and antioxidant properties that restores radiance and protection to the look.
4. Sun Protection: Your Ally to Prepare Your Skin for Summer Sun
The sun is one of the main culprits of premature skin aging.
It's important to prepare for the sun and protect the skin with specific cosmetics and a sun protection factor appropriate for your skin tone and specific needs.
While younger skin can use lighter sun protection, mature or more sensitive skin requires particularly effective sun protection. This is because the reduction of collagen and elasticity of the skin, which is a consequence of aging, can increase the risk of wrinkles and sunspots. For this reason, it's advisable to use specific products for mature skin that contain moisturizing and antioxidant ingredients, capable of protecting and nourishing the skin exposed to the sun.
Moreover, to avoid weighing down the skin tissue with the application of multiple cosmetic products of summer beauty routine, there are also alternatives with hybrid formulas (called hybrid cosmetics) that combine skincare and make-up in a single product capable of performing multiple functions.
For example, Il Tempio della Salute BB creams can not only replace foundation but also offer sun protection (SPF 20).
In any case, to prepare the skin for the sun, it's essential to remember to renew the application of sunscreen according to the indications of the chosen protection. In addition, it's advisable to support skin health through a healthy diet that favors the intake of substances naturally protective of the skin such as vitamins C and E, as well as avoiding sun exposure during the hottest hours of the day.
