As we head into Summer, it is the perfect time to revamp your skincare routine. Winter will have been harsh on your skin. The weather can dry it out considerably so you may find that your skin needs a little extra attention. During the summer, you are less likely to wear a full face of makeup. So making sure your skin looks fabulous is a surefire way to look good in the summer months ahead. So I thought I would share with you some things to consider when you change up your skincare routine.
Drink more water
A natural way to improve your skin tone and complexion is to increase your water intake. Drinking more water can have a great effect on your skin. It can plump up your skin, keeping it light and dewy. It is the most natural skincare product you can use. It also has many other health benefits, so it is a win-win situation.
A new cleanser can do the world of good
Sometimes continually using the same product can have an opposite effect. Your skin can become used to it’s properties means it won’t provide you with the same results after a lot of time. Of course, it’s always good to remain loyal to a brand and it may be worth heading down to one of the counters and asking for a new one. Or use it as an opportunity to try something new. A fresh facial wash is great in the morning. Whereas a cleanser applied directly to your skin and removed with cotton wool is a great alternative for an evening.
Considering anti-aging products at any age
Decent anti-aging products shouldn’t be ignored if you are under 40. Or even under 30 for that matter. It’s always good to be prepared and take care of your skin. Besides the more preventative measures you take on wrinkles, the better your skin will look in the future. A great way to use this kind of product would be a facial oil which could be applied after you have cleansed. There are some great ones available. You might also want to see the guidance of a dermatology expert. They can help you understand your skin and offer some help in terms of what could be useful in the future.
A good night moisturizer will be your best friend
Taking care of your skin at night is just as important as the morning. It’s worth having a slightly different routine at night. You could use a heavier moisturiser in the evening as going to bed allows your skin to soak in all the good stuff. It will also leave your skin looking healthy for the morning ahead. This is where a night cream would be perfect over using your day one. A night cream is always a heavier consistency and has different properties that will work well with your skin overnight.
Remember sometimes it is just the simplest of routines that can make the difference. However, the key to success is to be consistent with it morning and night. This is where you will notice the most difference.
