The key is consistency with the routine and choosing the right product.Forget everything, but never your sunscreen!Never run out of sunscreen if you want to survive the summers without rashes and tanning. Although a very basic skincare product, it is the most important one for all skin types. Even if you are staying indoors, using light sunscreen with SPF 30 is highly recommended since UV rays can reach you through the windows during the summers.And when you step outdoors, sunscreen is a must and it must be a heavy-duty product. Especially in the Indian summers, sunscreens with SPF 50 are the most suitable choice. If you are worried about which is the right choice for your skin type, try our Sunscreens that is suitable for all skin types. The lightweight and the fast-absorbing formula is a blessing for dry skin beauties. If you have oily skin, you must use a gel-based moisturizer to avoid heaviness.The right application is necessary to get the maximum benefits from your sunscreen. So, apply the sunscreen at least 30 minutes before going out and re-apply it through the day after every 2-3 hours if you’re staying out.Cleanse…Cleanse…Cleanse Away the dirt and grimeWashing your face twice daily is important. But it is even more so during the summer. The heat and humidity lead to sweating that catches the grime and dirt from around us. Especially for oily skinned women, the problem gets dire due to the excess sebum.A gentle cleanser ensures the dirt gets removed without dehydrating the skin and stripping off its natural oils. Double cleansing is ideal during summer to remove every speck of grime that gets settled in the fine lines and pores. But you can save all the effort with a cleanser like our Daily Duet Face Wash that doubles as a makeup remover too and comes with all benefits of double cleansing.Feed your skin with antioxidantsThe heat of summers dehydrates the skin and causes damage due to the free radicals. As a result, a skincare routine that replenishes the lost nourishment is essential. Introduce products with antioxidants like face serums which in turn boost collagen production and strengthen the natural skin barriers. Luckily, our C For Yourself Vitamin C Serum does this job perfectly. And the best part is, it is suitable for all skin types and targets skin concerns like hyperpigmentation and dullness in summer.Use moisturizers but with a twistOily skin beauties often skip moisturizers during the summer, which is totally understandable but a crime! Ditch those heavy feeling creams and opt for gel-based or light, cream consistency moisturizers. Lighter moisturizers work best for almost all skin types in the summer season.We recommend using our Ceramide Supercream Moisturizer daily to protect your skin from flakiness as well as pollution and blue light damage.
