Summer Skincare S.O.S: How to Prevent Sun Damage Before It Starts

Summer is a time for sunshine, sandals, and spontaneous adventures. But if we’re not careful, it can also bring an unwanted guest: sun damage. Connect with our skincare team to learn about ways to maintain healthy skin all season long. Together, we’ll create a plan that keeps your skin safe, radiant, and summer-ready.

SPF and Hydration

As we all know, SPF is a hero of summer skincare, and layering sunscreen is just as important as applying it. In the morning, apply a lightweight SPF moisturizer as a base, and then reapply throughout the day with a mist or mineral powder. This way, you’re protected from both UVA and UVB rays whether you’re on a patio or a power walk.

It’s also important to remember that sun exposure isn’t the only issue. Summer heat triggers more oil production while the sun’s rays dehydrate our skin. This can leave us shiny, parched, and more prone to breakouts and irritation. That’s why leaning into hydration, inside and out, is key. We recommend drinking plenty of water and using nutrient-rich products to help skin bounce back.

Summer Skincare and Post-Sun Recovery

Thirsty skin benefits from post-sun recovery facials, too. These treatments soothe redness, calm inflammation, and flood the skin with much-needed moisture. We love using products from FarmHouse Fresh. These natural choices replenish the skin barrier and fight free radicals, which are abundant after UV exposure.

Of course, not every summer skin issue has a one-size-fits-all fix. Our skin care experts are available to guide you toward treatments and at-home products that will work for you, preventing sun damage before it takes hold. Summer skincare can be both preventative and pampering, talk with us to learn more!
