Summer’s here, which is when we need to be extra vigilant about our skincare. There’s the sun’s sweltering rays with all of its ultraviolet radiation, the harmful effects of pollution, and the detrimental impact of chlorine and salt. All of this can be murder on your epidermis, which is the outermost layer of the three layers that make up your skin.

  1. Use the right sunscreen for your skin type.

It doesn’t take much time for the sun to ravage your skin. Ultraviolet light can damage your skin in as little as 15 minutes, and exposure to the sun is a significant cause of skin cancer. Sunscreen will protect your vulnerable skin from excessive amounts of sunshine. The American Academy of Dermatology recommends a sunscreen with an SBT (Sun Protection Factor) of at least 30. Higher SBF numbers mean better protection. If you have fair skin, sunscreen is doubly essential. Even on overcast days, wear your sunscreen. Even when it’s cloudy, approximately 80% of the sun’s ultraviolet rays can break through and do horrific damage to the thin membrane that protects your internal body parts.

  1. Regularly exfoliate your pores.

Sweating, pollution, high humidity, and harsh chemicals clog up your pores. If you want to unclog them so they can breathe, you’ll need to regularly exfoliate your skin

  1. Frequently moisturize your skin.

During the scorching days of summer, allow yourself the luxury of pampering your skin with a daily moisturizing routine. There are so many things in the warmer months that conspire to rob your skin of its essential moisture. These include unrelenting summer heat, exposure to harsh pool chemicals, and the caustic effects of saltwater.

  1. Drink plenty of fluids.

For radiantly healthy skin, drink plenty of fluids during the warmer months. This will not only keep your skin hydrated, but it will also flush unhealthy toxins from your cells. You can eat hydrating fruits and vegetables such as tomatoes, cucumbers, watermelons, and oranges.

  1. Avoid the sun between 10 AM and 2 PM.

This is when the sun’s rays are most intense, so there’s the highest risk of sunburn during this time. If you must venture out during these hours, sit under an umbrella or seek shade underneath a tree.

  1. Don’t go outside without sunglasses with UVA and UVB protection.

Wearing adequate eye protection dramatically reduces the risk of cataracts. It also protects the delicate skin around your eyes because they filter out harmful ultraviolet light.
