Stay Hydrated and Protected: Your Ultimate Summer Skincare Guide

by Ida Chorney

 

Hello, Glow Getters!

Summer is here, and while we all love soaking up the sun, it’s crucial to keep our skin hydrated and protected. The combination of high temperatures, sun exposure, and outdoor activities can take a toll on your skin. At Glow With Ida, we're dedicated to helping you maintain that healthy, radiant glow all summer long. Here's our comprehensive guide on why hydration and sun care are essential during the summer months, along with some top tips and product recommendations.

Why Hydration Matters

Hydration is key to maintaining healthy skin. During the summer, the heat and sun can cause your skin to lose moisture, leading to dryness, irritation, and premature aging. Hydrated skin is more resilient, looks plumper, and has a natural glow.

Top Hydration Tips:

  1. Drink Plenty of Water: Aim for at least eight glasses of water a day to keep your body and skin hydrated from the inside out.
  2. Use a Hydrating Serum: Incorporate a serum with hyaluronic acid to help retain moisture. We recommend Sorella Apothecary's Pomegranate Acai Antioxidant Serum, which fights daily pollution and rejuvenates tired skin.
  3. Moisturize Regularly: Apply a good moisturizer twice a day. Our Sorella Daily Greens Moisturizer is perfect for giving your skin a daily dose of vitamins and hydration.

The Importance of Sun Care

Sun exposure is one of the leading causes of skin damage, including sunburn, premature aging, and even skin cancer. Protecting your skin from harmful UV rays is crucial, not just for maintaining your skin's appearance but also for its overall health.

Top Sun Care Tips:

  1. Use Sunscreen Daily: Even on cloudy days, UV rays can penetrate your skin. Our Sorella Quench & Protect Hydrating SPF 30 is perfect for daily use, providing protection and hydration in one.
  2. Reapply Sunscreen: Reapply every two hours, especially if you’re swimming or sweating. Don’t forget areas like your ears, neck, and the tops of your feet.
  3. Wear Protective Clothing: Hats, sunglasses, and lightweight, long-sleeved clothing can provide additional protection from the sun.
  4. Seek Shade: Try to stay out of direct sunlight during peak hours (10 AM to 4 PM).
