Summer Skin Care + Product Recommendations
The summer fun has just begun! And guess what that means? Yep, time to make some adjustments to our skin care routine. The great things about summer - the heat, the sun, the refuge of airconditioned places - are also hard on skin and causes it to change. These new conditions mean the skin care routine that got us through the harsh cold weather may not serve us at this time. Our skin changes with the seasons, so how we take care of it should too.
Why Exfoliation Should Be In Your Skin Care Routine
Regular exfoliation in your skin care routine is a step you don’t want to pass up. If your skin is dry, dull, rough, uneven or greasy, it indicates that your skin is not getting the optimal care it needs.
Your skin naturally sheds dead cells on a 30-day cycle, slowing down as we age, but it doesn't always do the job right. Dead cells are left behind in dry, rough or flaky patches that will clog your pores contributing to the likelihood of other unpleasant skin conditions. No thanks!
