HOW TO TAKE CARE OF DIFFERENT SKIN TYPES DURING THE HOT SUMMER DAYS

We all have different skin types and understanding your unique skin type is absolutely essential before implementing the proper skincare routine to work for you. Every skin type reacts differently to the ever-changing weather conditions and seasons, which makes it more important to understand your skin type so that you treat it accordingly. This article will discuss tips to help you take care of different skin types during the hot summer days, to achieve healthy skin no matter your skin concern.

The Importance of Skincare During Summer

During summer, your skin is exposed to harsh UVA and UVB rays, which can severely damage your skin and cause other skin problems. If your skin is not well cared for, you may develop rashes, fine lines, wrinkles, dark spots, sun spots, blemishes, and sunburn.

Acne can occur in people with oily skin because the sebaceous glands secrete an excessive amount of oil, which combines with dirt, sweat, and pollution to clog your pores.

There are 5 different skin types:

  • Dry skin type
  • Oily skin type
  • Normal skin type
  • Sensitive skin type
  • Combination skin type

Skincare Tips for Dry Skin

The cold winter days usually leave us longing for the summer, but the hot, humid summer is equally challenging for dry skin. This is because dry skin is in danger of developing patches and small cracks during the summer, leading to premature signs of ageing.

Therefore, if you are looking for a dry skincare product in summer, it should definitely focus on hydrating your skin and keeping it well moisturised. It is essential to also keep the skin cool and calm in order to battle the tough summers well. For your dry skin, you can switch to a gentle cleanser and lightweight moisturiser. Make sure you drink lots of water to keep you hydrated.

Give your skin a moisture kick with Organic Machine’s Midnight Bloom overnight serum. Midnight Bloom is a skin treatment designed to lock moisture in. It is suitable for sensitive, dry, oily and normal skin types.

Skincare Tips for Oily Skin

Taking care of oily skin during the hot summer months can be tricky but it’s not an impossible task. We all know oily skin tends to become oilier during summer due to an excessive secretion of oil. This excess oil can clog your pores and eventually cause acne breakouts on your skin.

First and foremost, proper cleansing of your skin is important for sweaty summer weather. However do not overdo it as it may leave your skin dehydrated, which can cause more oil production, affecting your skin tone. In addition, that extra sebum your skin produces during summer alone can easily clog pores and lead to acne breakouts. To avoid this, you should exfoliate your skin twice a week to unclog pores. Last but not least, using a clay mask twice a week is one of the essentials to treat oily skin not just in summer but all around the year. Organic Machine’s Revitalising Face Mask is an excellent skin care product to even out skin tone, improve skin texture and soothe an acne breakout.

Care of Different Skin Types: Skincare Tips for Combination Skin

The hot season is very harsh on your combination skin. You may also experience acne breakouts, blemishes, dark spots, and rashes. The heat and humidity outside can make your oily T-zone look shinier while exacerbating the dry areas on your cheeks.

For your combination skin type we recommend cleansing twice a day to help prevent breakouts, especially when you are sweating more often. Certain parts of your skin are drier than others, so it’s smart to invest in different products to address each area. For example, when you are moisturising your face, you should apply a thick moisturizer on areas that are very dry, and a lighter moisturiser on the T-zone, which is the oily area, for more balanced skin.

Skincare Tips for Normal Skin

Usually, normal skin is not affected as much by the hot summer heat, but that doesn’t mean you should compromise on your skincare routine to keep it healthy and glowing. During the summers, the accumulation of dead skin cells gives your face a dull look. This is why it’s important to exfoliate your skin two to three times a week to keep it feeling and looking fresh. You can also try a hydrating face mask once a week to keep your skin plump through the heat.

Care of Different Skin Types: Skincare Tips for Sensitive Skin

The primary cause of a sensitive skin type is the over-sensitivity of nerve endings under your skin. If you have a sensitive skin type, you need to take extra care of your skin in the hot summer season. This is because, as you expose yourself to the sun, your skin might turn red, get itchy, and then it might start peeling off.

We recommend that you cover your skin before going outside. This will protect sensitive skin from damage by sun rays. Your summer skin care routine should definitely include exfoliation. You should use a gentle scrub on your skin to remove the dead skin. However, do not use any harsh products on your skin as you know you have sensitive skin and this may be very harmful to your skin. To add on, you should use a good brand of sunscreen. In addition, it’s important for you to use a good cleanser for your sensitive skin at least twice a day during the scorching summers.

Organic Machine’s Purifying Foaming Face Wash is a gentle cleanser that neutralises your skin’s pH.

Most importantly, never forget to apply sunscreen no matter what type of skin you have. We recommend a SPF 30 sunscreen, because it’s ideal for every skin type. It not only protects your complexion from UV rays but also soothes and hydrates your skin.

In conclusion, following a proper skincare routine can help you protect your skin from getting damaged during the hot summers.
