It’s hot out there right now. Here are our best skin care for summer tips and products.
With summer swinging into full gear, we’ve been greeted with heat, humidity, and of course, scores of events and socials to ring in the season. But with that heat and humidity come some, shall we say, complications for keeping your skin fresh. And with a packed social calendar, having clear, fresh skin is an absolute must.
As with most things, the K-beauty world has put forth a whole roster of products which make for a strong offense against the difficulties of summer weather. Below, we break down a botanical mix of our three favorite products to make sure your skin stays fresh, glowing, and hydrated for every dinner party, boat cruise, and boozy brunch on your calendar.
Up First: Cleanser
When it comes to tackling sweat and heat pollution, there’s nothing more important than keeping your skin clean. Our summer go-to, on top of our usual double cleanse, is the Juice to Cleanse Calming Clean Water. This cleansing water is formulated to gently sweep away makeup and impurities that may remain after double cleansing.
It’s also great to carry for a quick clean up in the middle of day to clear away sweat and other pollutants and leave your skin fresh and clear. Basically, the results are incredible and it smells like summer in a bottle.
Up Next: The Essence
Let’s be real: Your skin care should change with the seasons and this includes your essence. When it comes to braving the heat of the summer sun, your best bet is an essence that is cooling, hydrating, and refreshing for the skin.
Look for calming, water based ingredients, like those in the Banila Co Dear Hydration Intense Essence. This essence is light and mild, but packs a powerful punch of hydration. It gets its name from Banila Co’s trademark Urban Water Guard System, a blend of nourishing herbs and botanicals.The lightweight gel formula provides a burst of moisture immediately upon application, for a visibly radiant and hydrated complexion.
Final Step: Bright Eyes
When it comes to looking your best, keeping the skin around your eyes bright and fresh is so important. Whether you’re fighting dark circles, fine lines, puffiness, or all the above, a hydrating and brightening eye mask like the Wander Beauty Baggage Claim Eye Masks, is a must-have. Using hyaluronic acid and camu camu, this mask soothes, brightens, and revitalizes tired, puffy, and sunken eyes.
Apply it like a sheet mask for 20 minutes before you head out for your event and your eye area will look bright and refreshed the whole day. Plus, like the other products here, the mask features a beautiful lily scent that makes wearing it absolutely serene.
Bottom line:
With these three products at hand, your skin will stay cool, clean, and clear for all of the events on your summer social calendar.
