Summers can be hot and humid, causing excessive oiliness in the skin. Therefore, it is important to pay extra attention to skincare in order to effectively reduce skin problems caused by greasy skin. So, what are the correct steps for summer skincare?
Makeup Removal
Regardless of whether you wear makeup or not, it is best to remove any makeup before cleansing, especially as the first step in your evening skincare routine. The hot weather in summer causes the skin to produce excessive oil, which easily accumulates dirt and dust. Using makeup remover can effectively clean these impurities, and then proceed with facial cleansing for better results.
Cleansing
In summer, you can choose a lightweight and refreshing facial cleanser. After removing makeup, squeeze an appropriate amount of facial cleanser onto your palm, lather it up, and massage your face. Finally, rinse thoroughly with water.
Facial Masks
If you have cleansed your face in the evening, you can apply a facial mask. In summer, facial masks suitable for use include after-sun repair, hydration, and oil control masks, which can be used about twice a week. If you are following a morning skincare routine, this step can be skipped.
Toner
In summer, it is recommended to use toner as a skincare product. Toner can help cleanse the skin again and provide hydration. When using toner, gently pat it onto the skin instead of using a large amount.
Serums and Lotions
After using toner in summer, you can use lightweight serums and lotions to better repair and nourish the skin. Pay attention to the texture of the products and apply them accordingly. If your skin tends to be oily, you can skip this step.
Sunscreen
Summer sunshine can be intense and damaging to the skin. After moisturizing the skin, it is necessary to use sunscreen for protection. Both sunscreen and primer should be applied, and sunscreen should be reapplied throughout the day.
