Summer is a trying time for your skin. The sun and the scorching heat can be unforgiving, especially to your skin. Pollution and other environmental contaminants take away your skin’s natural radiance, leaving it oily, dull, and blemished.

How to Take Care of Your Skin in the Summer Season?

1. Consider a Change When It Comes to Your Face Wash

As you move from winter to summer, you should remember that your facewash has to change. You may want a face wash that can draw out the excess oil from your skin. If you have dry skin, consider using a non-foaming cleanser. If you’re looking for a range of skin care products for summer, consider visiting Kiehl’s store located on the ground floor of Mercato Mall. The store offers a wide range of skin care products such as moisturizes, toners, cleansers, serums and more.

2. Keep Your Skin Hydrated

Summer is the season when your skin requires moisture as well as hydration. Invest in a good hydrating mask which you use a couple of times a week. Wash your face first and apply the mask as directed to repair, rehydrate, and soothe your skin.

3. Cut Down on Makeup

Summer means that you should ease up on the makeup. Humidity and heat suppress the skin’s ability to breathe and stress it out. Wearing minimal facial makeup allows the skin to breathe better. For a wide collection for makeup, Lush UAE is the store for you. They offer handmade organic cosmetics which are good for the skin. Visit their shop located at the first floor of Mercato Mall.

4. Wear Sunscreen

Wearing sunscreen is highly suggested when stepping out in the sun. A broad-spectrum sunscreen which is normally between 30-35 SPF works great to protect your skin from suntan. Re-apply this sunscreen after every three hours and make sure you apply on your neck, hands, feet, and shoulders.

5. Change Your Moisturizer

During summer, choose the type of moisturizers that are lighter. Skin care in summer calls for a lighter and non-greasy product that suits the weather. For a moisturizer ideal for summer, head on to MAC Cosmetics on the ground floor of Mercato Mall. They have a complete range of cosmetics including moisturizers.

6. Give yourself vitamin C boost

Vitamin C is good for maintaining healthy collagen, the supportive tissue of the skin that helps the skin stay healthy, firm and strong. Load up on vitamin C rich foods like orange, lemon, amla, grapefruits, tomato and green leafy vegetables among others.

7. Remember to Take Care of Your Feet

While most of the focus is on taking care of the face, it is also important not to forget about your feet that carry you around all day. It is suggested to exfoliate the skin on your feet regularly and use a moisturizer and sunscreen on your feet if you plan on wearing open footwear. And if you want to pamper yourself from head-to-toe, visit The Nail Spa located on the first floor of Mercato Mall.
