Why is skin hydration so important in summer?

Why is skin hydration crucial during the summer?

1. Preventing dehydration and skin aging

High temperatures and UV radiation cause water to evaporate from the skin faster. Dehydrated skin loses elasticity, looks tired, wrinkles form more quickly and can be more prone to age spots.

2. Supporting skin’s protective functions

Hydrated skin has a stronger skin barrier that protects it from harmful environmental influences, bacteria and nutrient loss.

3. Reducing irritation and redness

Sufficient hydration helps soothe irritated skin, reduce inflammation and restore its natural radiance.

How to properly care for your skin during the summer months?

1. Thorough but gentle cleansing

The skin should be cleansed morning and evening to remove sweat, oil, dirt and SPF residue. Use gentle cleansing products that do not disrupt the natural pH of the skin. https://www.temperancesk.com/cleansing-foam-and-gel/

2. Tone the skin
Although many of us know this step very well, let's face it - who devotes themselves to multiple steps in skin care during the summer? We try to simplify everything, but let's not forget that devoting ourselves to thorough care costs us a few minutes more time, but has exceptional results later. That is, also devote a few minutes to toning - your skin will really thank you. Toning after cleansing in the morning and evening - allow the toning to properly absorb into the skin for a few minutes and only then apply the next step.  https://www.temperancesk.com/skin-toner/

The holiday regime also applies to the skin - let's slow down and take care of ourselves.

3. Hydrating serums and light creams

Reach for products with hyaluronic acid, Aloe vera or glycerin, which bind water in the skin. In the summer, prefer lighter textures that do not clog pores. In our offer, skin emulsions are especially great helpers in the summer, which are highly nutritious than creams, but have a lighter consistency. https://www.temperancesk.com/product-result/emulzia/ Since they come in larger packages, you can easily transfer them to a spare plastic cup using the pump and take them with you on vacation. 

4. Evening serums and creams

For evening treatment, don't forget that your skin needs a little soothing, lubricating and nourishing. However, if you strain it during sunbathing and swimming, or if you are in the mountains, even the wind can take its toll, so don't forget to treat your skin to a serum to fix the nutrition or soothing effect after evening cleansing and toning. Leave it on for a while and then apply a cream to replenish lubrication and hydration. https://www.temperancesk.com/serum-and-essence/

5. Regular use of SPF

A MUST is a sunscreen with a factor of at least SPF 30. This is an absolute must every day, even if it is cloudy. UV radiation is the main cause of premature skin aging. So do not hesitate to put SPF in your handbag for daily use. https://www.temperancesk.com/spf/

6. Refreshment during the day

Thermal water or a moisturizing spray will help refresh the skin on hot days - ideally in your handbag. https://www.temperancesk.com/product-result/rann%C3%A1%20rosa/

7. Drinking regimen

Beautiful skin starts from the inside. Don't forget to drink enough water - ideally at least 2 liters a day.
