How to Beat the Heat With the Right Summer Skincare

Want glowing skin for the summer? Unlock the secret to a flawless summer skincare routine that can help you look fresh and radiant. 

Maintaining healthy and blemish-free skin during the summer can be hard. Scorching heat and increased humidity can wreak havoc on your skin, leaving it dull, damaged, broken out and irritated. Furthermore, the sun’s harmful UV rays can cause pigmentation, sunburn and premature aging. So, as the days get hotter, it is time to revamp your skincare routine to prepare your skin for the summer. ​​With the right products and a well-crafted summer skincare routine, you can tackle these concerns and ensure that your skin stays moisturized, protected and luminous all season long. But what exactly do you need to do to elevate your summer skincare game?

How to build an effective summer skincare routine?

Here’s a comprehensive summer skincare routine that can help purify and soothe your skin, leaving it healthy and radiant during the hotter months:

1. Purify your skin with a gentle cleanser 

In order to maintain a lower body temperature, your skin produces more natural oil in summer to stay moisturized. As a result, sebum, debris and dead skin cells build up and clog pores, increasing the risk of comedones and acne. So, thoroughly cleansing your skin is crucial. By Biolite’s Deep Pore Cleanser is an excellent way to kickstart your summer skincare. This gentle, sulfate-free cleanser unclogs pores by removing impurities, excess oil and residual sunscreen. 

2. Soothe with a calming serum

We tend to spend a lot of time outdoors in warmer weather, which can cause skin inflammation and sensitivity. Therefore, you must add a soothing product to your summer skincare routine. If you experience skin irritation or redness in summer, try By Biolite’s Redness Relief. Formulated with potent ingredients like SepiCalm, white tea, Sea Whip and Lichochalcone, this product soothes heat-activated skin, reduces redness, and restores your skin's natural balance. It is the perfect post-sun treatment to keep your skin feeling refreshed and revitalized.

3. Replenish your skin with a lightweight moisturizer

Now that summer is here, it is time to bid goodbye to your heavy and rich moisturizers. Swap them with lighter, gel-based formulas to keep your skin hydrated yet oil-free. The S'ABLE Labs Baobab Moisturizer is your ultimate summer hydration ally. Its lightweight, fast-absorbing formula nourishes your skin without greasiness, making it perfect for the hotter days. Packed with radiance-boosting ingredients like niacinamide and tranexamic acid, it quenches your skin's thirst and regulates sebum production, thus leaving it refreshed and supple.

4. Shield and defend with sunscreen

You must use sunscreen every day, regardless of the weather or season. However, it is even more important to take sun protection seriously during the summer months because harsh sun rays can cause serious damage to your skin. For complete sun protection, add a broad-spectrum, lightweight sunscreen to your summer skincare routine. The By Biolite Zinc Block is a revolutionary formula that’s both gentle and extremely effective at protecting from aging UVA and burning UVB rays. And the best part? You don’t have to worry about the stickiness that comes with sunscreens–it is non-greasy and fast-absorbing. Plus, it ensures a seamless application, leaving no white cast.
