Grooming is needed not only for women but also for men. Because sweat and oil due to heat make the body dirty. And harsh sunlight damages the skin.
Therefore, the co-founder of men’s skincare cosmetics brand ‘Astra’ advises preparing the skin from now on.
He said in a published report, “Men’s skin needs regular care during summer. That’s why you need to maintain a routine.”
Protecting the skin from the sun:
Exposure to the sun’s harmful UV rays during summer can cause skin problems ranging from sunburn to premature aging.
It is important to use sunscreen to protect the skin from the sun. Sunblock with at least 30 SPF should be used on the face and exposed areas before going outside. Reapply sunscreen every two hours.
Cleansing the skin properly:
Summer means sweat, excess oil, and dirt on the skin. Cleansing the skin twice daily is essential to keep the skin clear and reduce breakouts.
Using a mild ‘D-Tan Facewash’ keeps the skin smooth and fresh. They reduce pore clogging and help maintain natural oils.
Bathing in hot water can dry out the skin and irritate it. So it is better to wash the face with lukewarm or cold water.
Exfoliate:
Exfoliation is important to remove dead skin cells and bring freshness. Accumulation of excess oil and dead skin cells clogs the pores and damages the skin.
Exfoliating twice a week helps remove dead skin cells to keep skin fresh, bright, and smooth.
For exfoliation, use a gentle scrub or an ‘exfoliating cleanser rich in glycolic acid for better results.
Protecting skin moisture:
Protecting moisture is beneficial to keep the skin healthy and glowing in summer. Use a light, oil-free moisturizer after washing your face at this time to avoid clogging the pores.
Hyaluronic acid-rich cosmetics maintain skin moisture and firmness.
Uses of Beard Lotion:
For those with beards, using these lotions balances the skin and helps keep the beard soft, smooth, and moisturized.
Natural ingredients such as alpha-bisabolol, vitamin E, or peanut oil play a role in protecting the moisture of the face and beard.
Keeping yourself hydrated:
Drinking enough water is essential for healthy skin. In the heat, extra sweat is produced and water is lost from the body. So it is beneficial to drink water and eat juicy fruits like watermelon, cucumber, strawberry, etc. to maintain moisture.
Lip care:
Lips become dry during summer. So it also needs extra care.
Using lip balm is beneficial in reducing dryness. A lip balm is rich in shea butter or coconut oil and gives better results.
Hair Care:
Along with the skin, hair care should also be taken care of. The sun makes hair rough and brittle. Therefore, shampoo and conditioner should be used according to the hair.
At the same time, excessive washing should also be avoided using these cosmetics. Besides, hair is healthy in summer using a ‘live-in conditioner’ or oil.
The point is:
Summer skincare changes are not too complicated. Adhering to a regular skincare routine, protecting your body from moisture, and protecting it from the sun’s harmful rays can keep your skin healthy during summer.
