1. Moisturise.
Your body loses a lot of moisture during summers. So, it is essential to hydrate your body every now and then. Experts will tell you that it is a must to drink 10-12 glasses of water and increase your fruit intake to keep yourself hydrated all day long. Doing so will show the effect on your skin too. Other than that make sure to follow the ritual of cleansing, toning, and moisturizing at night before sleeping. You could use milk and honey, which are great natural moisturizers for the skin.
Cleanse your face twice a day and scrub your skin two to three times a week to get rid of dirt and grime from deep within the pores. This is important or your skin won't be able to benefit from the moisturizing lotions and face masks you try to use.
Use sunscreen whenever you step out. This is crucial as sunscreen helps in shielding your skin from harmful UV radiations that bring about the early onset of skin aging.
Sure, we all love to apply makeup but during summers you need to keep it low. To protect the skin's natural glow, the most important thing is to stay away from heavy makeup and get into the habit of taking it off before sleeping to let the pores breathe.
A good way to keep your face fresh and cool during summers is to use tomatoes, which are a great source of antioxidants. Mix tomato and lemon juice and apply it all over your face (you could also make ice cubes of it). Leave it on for 10 minutes and then wash with cold water. It will cool your skin and keep it hydrated too.
Face packs made from kitchen ingredients like milk, honey, and oatmeal can do wonders for your skin to keep it smooth and hydrated. You can also choose fruit face packs and sheet masks. Here are some ideas DIY face packs.
