How To Choose A Summer Skincare Routine

Here’s your cue to build a well-thought-out and dedicated summer skincare routine for glowing and youthful skin

The summer is almost knocking at the door and it is high time to upgrade your summer skincare routine to match the season. The heat, sun rays and high moisture during this season call for products and habits to keep the skin cool and prevent sunburns.Based on your skin type, you need to choose products which are generally soothing and give protection against the sun and heat. High SPF, cooling ingredients and formulas, and mild and non-comedogenic are some criteria to note while choosing products for your summer skincare routine.

Masking

A summer skincare routine must consist of masking, especially if you have oily or combination skin. Clay masks soothe the skin and also clear the pores and control sebum. The Dr. G Moringa Face Pack is designed to suit every skin type. It has anti-inflammatory properties and does not dry out the skin. It is a glow-boosting pack, enriched with hyaluronic acid that helps to retain moisture. Masking twice a week will suffice during the summers.

Cleansing

Cleansing is the basis of all skincare routines, irrespective of the season. Especially during summer, when choosing a cleanser for your summer skincare routine, choose one that is gentle and soothing. Sebum control cleanser is a better choice for oily and combination skin. Determine your skin type and accordingly choose the cleanser for it. Look for oil-free cleansers for the summer with ingredients like aloe vera, mint, niacinamide and hyaluronic acid.

Toning

It is crucial to use a good toner for your summer skincare routine, to restore the hydration of your skin after cleansing. A good toner also provides vital nourishment for your skin and restores the sebum balance. Especially in the summers, if you use a toner after refrigerating for a while, it soothes the skin and the pores are minimised.

Moisturising

The last step is moisturising the skin. During summer, use a gel-based moisturiser for any skin type. For extremely oily skin, water-based products are more suitable. For your morning routine, include a high-SPF sunscreen and moisturiser before you go out.
