As, Summer has set in your skin need not take the brunt of the heat this season.

We recommend you, some tips that’ll help keep your skin fresh and dewy, even as the mercury continues to stay high.

Keep yourself Hydrated!!

The first & foremost thing that we must all remember to do is to drink plenty of water or fluids during the summer so that the body remains hydrated & healthy and whenever possible. Fresh fruit juices such as tender coconut water, lime or lemon juice, water melon juice etc keep you well hydrated.

Stay Indoors!!:

If you can, try and stay indoors between 11am & 3pm. That’s when the sun’s rays are the strongest and can have an adverse effect on your skin. Also, don’t forget to apply that all-important sunscreen 30 minutes before you step out. If you’ve been out in the sun for a few hours, touch it up again so you’re well protected.

Eat healthy, exercise and sleep well!

The holy trinity of good health and glowing skin holds true for the whole year. So along with all the tips above, don’t forget to eat a balanced diet, work out for at least 45 minutes everyday and get 7 to 8 hours of sleep. Enjoy the summer!

Moisturize!!

Don’t make the mistake of skipping the moisturising routine altogether as its essential for your skin to remain hydrated. However, if you find your regular moisturiser too oily, go for a water-based one.

Exfoliate!

More than the rest of the year, it’s really important to exfoliate your skin in the summer to remove dead skin and improve blood circulation to the face. Choose from any of the cosmetic scrubs available in the market or make one at home

Cleanse your face twice a day.

At least! This is important to do even if you’ve been home all day and feel like your skin is clean. Cleansing & moisturising your skin before sleeping is an absolute must.

No to Aerated Drinks!!

Most people have the tendency to reach out for an ice cold aerated drink to quench their thirst on a really hot day. However, it’s important to remember that these drinks are full of sugar that is not good for your skin or your figure. Instead drink some water, fresh lime, fresh fruit juices, aam panna (green mango drink) or coconut water to stay hydrated. It’s also best to minimise the intake of diuretics like alcohol and caffeine as they reduce the water from your system.

Enjoy Summer!!
