With summer on its way, everyone is looking forward to basking in the sun and enjoying the warm weather. While you should take advantage of the heat and get outside, remember that sun exposure can damage your skin and lead to signs of aging, causing the need for services like age spot treatment and microdermabrasion. Here are a few ways you can protect your skin from sun damage this summer. 

3 Skin Care Tips for Keeping Your Skin Glowing in the Summertime

1. Moisturize & Hydrate

Whether you live in an arid climate or not, keeping your skin moisturized throughout the summer months is extremely important to keeping your skin looking healthy and preventing wrinkles. Apply a light moisturizer with SPF in it for daytime wear, then apply a thicker moisturizer at night for optimal hydration. Hydrating your body is also vital to the health of your skin, so drink at least eight glasses of water every day. 

2. Protect With SPF age spot treatment

Even if you slather on sunscreen before heading out the door in the morning, you need to reapply it throughout the day to effectively protect your face from sun damage. Whether you have oily, dry, combination, or mature skin, there are sunscreen options made for your skin type. To make applying it simpler and avoid the need for age spot treatment in the future, purchase a spray version that you can spritz throughout the day, even over your makeup. 

3. Repair Sun Damage 

If you end up with a sunburn, don’t stress. Take the time to repair and soothe your skin with cooling gels and after-sun balms to relieve tenderness, calm redness, and prevent peeling. Products with natural ingredients like aloe, oils, and fruit extracts are effective for soothing burnt skin. For freckles and sun spots, visit your dermatologist for age spot treatment.
