The Summer Skin Survival Guide for Teens

As summer heats up in Perth, it’s essential for teens to adapt their skincare routines to tackle the unique challenges that come with the season. Elevated temperatures and increased sun exposure can lead to issues like oily skin, dehydration, and breakouts. Here’s how to keep your skin clear, healthy, and glowing all summer long.

Understanding Summer Skin Challenges

  1. Increased Oil Production: Warmer weather stimulates sebaceous glands, leading to excess oil on the skin’s surface. This can clog pores and cause acne.

     

  2. Dehydration: Despite the humidity, the skin can lose moisture due to heat, resulting in a dehydrated yet oily complexion.

     

  3. Sun Exposure: Harmful UV rays can damage the skin, leading to premature ageing and increasing the risk of skin cancer.

     

Essential Summer Skincare Tips

  1. Gentle Cleansing: Use a mild cleanser twice daily to remove sweat, oil, and impurities without stripping the skin’s natural moisture.

     

  2. Hydration: Opt for lightweight moisturisers to maintain hydration without clogging pores.

     

  3. Sun Protection: Apply a broad-spectrum, non-comedogenic sunscreen with at least SPF 50 every day, even on cloudy days. Reapply every two hours when outdoors. REMEMBER TO APPLY SUNSCREEN 20 MINUTES BEFORE GOING INTO THE SUN!

 

 

  1. Targeted Treatments: Incorporate products containing Salicylic Acid to help control oil and prevent breakouts.
