Get Protected: Your Guide to Summer Skin Health

Hey there, Beautiful! As we head into summer, it’s the perfect time to show our skin some extra love. We all adore the warmth and glow that sunshine brings, but we also need to protect our skin from its harmful effects. Sunburns, dark spots, and premature aging can creep up if we’re not careful, but don’t worry — I’ve got the inside scoop on how to protect, hydrate, and pamper your skin, so you can keep it looking glowing and healthy all summer long.

Colorescience Pure Mineral SPF

Let’s talk sunscreen! One of my absolute faves is Colorescience Pure Mineral SPF. It’s packed with natural minerals like zinc oxide, titanium dioxide and iron ores, which create a physical barrier against the sun’s harmful rays. This sunscreen not only protects you from both UVA, UVB and HEV rays but also helps keep those wrinkles, dark spots, and skin damage at bay. Plus, it’s super gentle on sensitive skin, and it leaves your skin feeling smooth and glowing. Whether you’re wearing makeup or going au naturel, it’s the perfect base to keep you protected.

Hydration is Key

We all know the sun can dry out our skin, so hydration is an absolute must. Make sure you’re drinking plenty of water, and be sure to use a nourishing moisturizer. Hyaluronic acid is a go-to ingredient I love because it helps your skin hold onto moisture, leaving it feeling plump and fresh. Adding a serum with Vitamin C and E can also give your skin that extra glow while offering a little boost of protection against environmental stressors.

In-Clinic Treatments for Sun Damage

If you’re already noticing some sun spots or texture issues from past sun exposure, there are a few amazing in-clinic treatments that can help reverse that sun damage and give you a refreshed look.

• Chemical Peels: These use a blend of acids to exfoliate the skin, removing the top layer of damaged skin and revealing fresher, brighter skin underneath. It’s great for fading sun spots, reducing fine lines, and improving skin texture.

• Microneedling: This treatment uses tiny needles to create micro-injuries in the skin, which boosts collagen production and helps improve skin texture. It’s especially great for treating sun damage, helping to fade dark spots and improve overall skin tone.  Our DP4 state of the art bluetooth device is the go to for percision and accuracy.

• Microdermabrasion: This treatment gently exfoliates the top layer of your skin using tiny crystals or a diamond-tipped wand. It’s fantastic for smoothing out rough skin, reducing the appearance of sun spots, and giving your complexion a brighter, more even tone. Plus, it helps your skin absorb skincare products more effectively!

  
  

Keep Your Skin Healthy and Glowing All Summer

Aside from SPF and hydration, there are a few more things you can do to keep your skin looking its best:

• Antioxidants: Adding products with Vitamin C to your routine can help brighten your complexion while protecting your skin from environmental damage.  Include lots of antioxidant rich foods in your diet, berries are a great go to for the summer when they are in season.

• Collagen Supplements: To keep your skin firm and plump, consider adding collagen supplements to your daily routine. These can help support your skin’s elasticity and prevent sagging, keeping your skin looking youthful from the inside out.

• Exfoliate Gently: Exfoliating weekly helps remove dead skin cells and reveal fresh skin underneath. Just make sure to go easy and avoid over-exfoliating, which can irritate your skin.
