Are you ready for this shiny season? Summer is coming up!
Summer for many of us means lounging on pool chairs, tanning on a beach, and days on end of fun under the sun.
However, the warm and bright days can also mean excess humidity, sunburn and stressed skin. As we cannot totally avoid the sun, it is important to know the ways to protect your skin. We are here to give summer skincare tips. Let’s prepare before the season start!
Here are five easy-to-implement summer skincare tips to follow:
1. Using gentle Cleanser
Do you normally have an elaborate skincare regimen? Summer is the perfect time to simplify your skincare routine. For instance, if you regularly use heavy oil and cream cleansers, opt for something gentle and foamy. Remember, if you don’t need that heavy winter coat, neither does your skin.
Try Physio Radiance Gentle Foaming Cleanser is designed to remove oil and other impurities while maintaining the skin’s hydrolipidic balance. Plus, it also helps keep your skin looking radiant every day.
2. Sunscreen is a MUST
Despite it being vital for the production of Vitamin D, the summer sun can also do serious UV damage to your skin as well as contribute to wrinkles and spots, and increase the risk of skin cancer. This is why you should always protect exposed areas of the body such as the ears, hands, neck and of course, face with sunscreen.
Make sure you apply the sunscreen correctly by using two finger lengths of sunscreen for your face and one ounce for your body and using any broad-spectrum sunblock with at least SPF 30 for the best result.
For enhance your skin, consider Physio Radiance Firming & Lifting Double Serum to address hyperpigmentation and uneven skin tone that comes with too much sun exposure.
3. Moisturise, moisturise, moisturise
The air may not be as dry in the summer as in the winter, but your skin still needs moisturising. Excess humidity means you should deal with the stress that sweat, oil and other pollutants can put on your skin and make sure it’s nourished, both during the day and at night.
Developed with all-day moisturisation in mind, Physio Radiance Restoring Day Cream and Physio Radiance Regenerating Night Cream work to hydrate and protect the skin from chemical and physical stressors while brightening, nourishing and restoring suppleness.
4. Exfoliate regularly
Cleansing your face daily is great. However, the hotter temperatures and extra sunscreen use during the summer can lead to clogged pores. This is why deep-cleansing exfoliation two to three times a week is important to remove accumulated dirt, oil, and dead skin cells. It can also help reduce the risk of breakouts.
Physio Radiance Visage+ helps keep your skin hydrated, moisturised, and smooth. For a soothing and purifying deep cleanse, pair it with the Physio Radiance Visage+ Purifying Gel.Together, they help calm the skin and leave it feeling fresh and renewed.
5. Stay hydrated

The sun’s UV rays and environmental pollutants can put stress on your skin. That’s why it is important to maintain a strong skin barrier. Besides using sunscreen and keeping your skin hydrated, supporting your overall health and immunity can also help your body maintain its natural protective functions.
