Summers in India can be relentless, but don't let them get the better of you! ALZIBA CARES guide to summer skincare products has all you need to combat the heat. Whether you're commuting to the office or enjoying a day at home, you need to make sure your skincare routine is ready for summer. As temperatures rise, plan your summer skincare now so you can stay, look and feel your best all season long.

Why Skincare Is Essential In Summer

During the hot weather of summer, dirt, and dust accumulate and can cause the sweat glands of the skin to become clogged, trapping perspiration and leading to small bumps, itchy rashes, and blisters. The lack of hydration can cause the skin to become irritated, dry, and more prone to sunburn. Lips may begin to chap and dry patches may form. 

The sun's ultraviolet rays also cause melanin to create a shield on the skin, leading to a tan or darkening of the skin. The warmth can create a perfect environment for bacteria and viruses to grow, so it is important to take care when touching your face with hands that have touched other surfaces. To ensure the health of your skin during summer, it is important to adhere to certain skincare tips.

Cleansing Is Crucial

Sunny rays can cause the skin to become sensitive and oily. That's why taking time to invest in proper cleansing is an essential part of a great skincare routine. ALZIBA CARES suggests incorporating face cleansers having ingredients such as salicylic acid, niacinamide, and tea tree oil into your routine. Additionally, opt for cleansers having gentle exfoliants like glycolic or lactic acid to help remove dead skin cells and unclog pores. Remember to use a mild exfoliant this season, as the skin can easily become irritated in the heat. Making cleansing part of your summer skincare routine will go a long way in keeping your skin looking and feeling its best!

Hydration

As the summer sun shines down, we must give our skin some extra hydration. Having dry skin can cause discomfort and lead to moodiness, so it's important to keep all parts of your body moisturized, including lips, eyes, and face. At ALZIBA CARES, we provide unique Vitamin C hydrating serum that has a mattifying effect and doesn't feel heavy on the skin. This allows the user to absorb excess oil, while also maintaining a refreshing and healthy feeling throughout the day. 

Take Care Of Body Acne

If you're planning to be active during the summer months, then you're likely to be sweating a lot. That's why it's so important to shower immediately afterward and make sure you're using an exfoliating body cleanser like ALZIBA CARES shower gels. Exfoliating helps to remove dirt, sweat, and bacteria from your skin and keeps you feeling cleaner and fresher for longer.

These gels are enriched with moisturizing agents to deeply hydrate your skin -- all without stripping away natural oils. Natural extracts also work to gently exfoliate any dead skin cells and impurities, leaving your skin feeling smooth and soft. And with the rewarding fragrance of sweet-smelling fruits, you'll be transported to paradise! So why not treat yourself?

Don’t Skip Your Sunscreen! 

When the temperatures start to rise, it's time to start stocking up on sunscreen. During the summer, sunscreen is an absolute must. For long-lasting coverage that won't leave your skin feeling greasy, choose a gel- or mousse-based sunscreen. To determine which SPF to use, consider your sun exposure. If you're regularly spending time outside, opt for a higher SPF for maximum protection. For extended exposure, we recommend reapplying sunscreen every two to three hours. Make sure you're prepped for the heat and stay safe this summer with sunscreen.

Antioxidants

It's often overlooked, but introducing antioxidants into your summer skincare routine is an essential step for harmonious skin health. They combat the damaging effects of free radicals caused by excess sun exposure and air pollution and protect your skin from aging. Free radicals can cause breakouts, hyper-pigmentation, dark spots, and wrinkles - all of which are better prevented than treated. By including an antioxidant serum in your skincare plan, you can keep your skin healthy and glowing.

Vitamin C is especially effective at managing skin concerns like wrinkles, sagging, and discoloration. Not only do they support skin conditions, but they also take steps to promote blood flow, aiding in skin cell regeneration. Don't hesitate to incorporate skincare products featuring powerful antioxidants into your daily routine.

Choose The Right Shampoo

Summer can be a difficult time for anyone's hair; especially with the rising temperatures, increasing humidity levels, and more dust in the air. To prevent any hair fall, it's important to keep up a haircare routine that mitigates these summer elements.

To keep your hair looking and feeling clean, we recommend shampooing your locks at least twice a week. For the best results, try using shampoos from ALZIBA CARES. Not only does it provide a nourishing formula that shields your hair from the environment, but it also helps to strengthen it and reduce the risk of hair fall.

Make sure you thoroughly massage your scalp with your fingertips while washing, as this will not only distribute the shampoo better but also help break down the grime and dirt on the scalp. Washing the scalp effectively will also get rid of any dryness and itchiness. Once the scalp is completely cleansed and rinsed, your hair will be automatically in good condition.
