Hot Tips for the Best Summer Skin Care
Ah, summer – the season of sun, fun, and, unfortunately, lower back sweat (LBS) and skin woes. But don’t worry, we’ve got you covered with the ultimate guide to keeping your skin in tip-top shape while you bask in the glory of those long, sunny days. Let's dive into the essentials of summer skin care that’ll have you glowing like the sun.
1. Sunscreen: Your Summer MVP.
You know how the sun’s like that friend who says they’ll “just stop by for a minute” but then ends up staying for hours? Yeah, the sun’s UV rays are like that, sneaking through clouds, windows, and even on those gloomy days. Huron’s SPF is here to keep those sneaky rays at bay, offering broad-spectrum protection that’s as reliable as your morning coffee. So whether you’re lounging by the pool or playing a round of golf, slap on that sunscreen. Bonus points because it's doesn't *feel* like you're putting on sunscreen. More like a daily moisturizer - no chalky mess, white-cast, or endless rubbing in.
2. Hydrate or Die-drate.
Your skin is like a plant. It needs water to thrive, and no, margaritas don’t count (though they do make summer a lot more fun). Drink plenty of water throughout the day to keep your skin hydrated from the inside out. Aim for at least eight glasses a day, and if you’re feeling fancy, throw in some fruit slices for a spa-like touch. And no, your iced coffee doesn’t count, even if it has ice in it. Hydration is key to keeping your skin glowing and your body cool.
3. Lighten Up Your Moisturizer
Heavy creams? Save them for winter. Summer calls for lightweight, non-comedogenic moisturizers that won’t clog your pores. Gel-based moisturizers are a summer fave – they’re like a cool drink of water for your skin. Think of it like swapping out your winter parka for a summer windbreaker – light, airy, and oh-so-refreshing. Our Daily Face Moisturizer is cooling, lightweight, and packs a powerful hydration punch.
4. Exfoliate (Gently)
Exfoliation helps slough off dead skin cells, revealing a brighter complexion. But here’s the catch: most exfoliators tend to be very rough and irritating to the skin, which can strip your skin of essential oils. In other words, many exfoliators feel like sandpaper. Far from ideal. However, the Huron Face Wash uses gentle exfoliates (crushed bamboo!) to offer a deep clean, but gentle enough to use daily. A great way to keep your skin smooth and radiant.
5. Nourish from Within
Your skin is a reflection of what you eat. Load up on antioxidant-rich fruits and veggies to fight free radicals and keep your skin looking fresh. Think berries, leafy greens, and citrus fruits. Delicious and nutritious all while helping your skin? Yes, please.
6. Freshen Up with a Spritz
We're talking fragrance (not alcohol). Summer isn’t just about looking good – it’s about smelling great too. Enter Huron EDP, your new go-to for staying fresh no matter what the day throws your way. With its crisp, invigorating yet clean notes, Huron EDP is like a breath of fresh air in a bottle.
Whether you’re at a pool party or an evening soirée, our EDP should be your go-to.
