Get Summer-Ready Skin—at Any Age!
From controlling acne, rosacea, and eczema to preventing skin damage and aging, summer heat and humidity can aggravate existing skin conditions or present new challenges. Acne is a skin condition affecting the skin’s oil glands, resulting in clogged pores and flare-ups of lesions or pimples. Added summer humidity, increased sweating, and cosmetic products are all external causes of most seasonal skin problems. Other contributors like genetics, hormones, medications, etc. can also be culprits to monitor. It is a myth that only teenagers experience acne – adults too can be prone to breakouts. Treated early, acne usually responds well to treatment to stop new pimples from forming, heal existing pimples, prevent scarring and lessen the embarrassment associated with acne. Often mistaken for acne is rosacea, a skin condition that causes enlarged blood vessels, leading to redness and pimples on certain areas of the face. Rosacea can also often be attributed to environmental changes. If left untreated, this condition will only worsen.
Another annoying skin condition often induced by change in temperature is eczema, a form of dermatitis characterized by itching and dry, scaly red patches. While there are many likely causes, unexpected flare-ups triggered by environmental factors and allergic reactions are most common. Although many over-the-counter and prescription topical creams are effective for eczema, using these treatments for extended periods can damage the skin. Natural and holistic treatments are a safer, gentler alternative without the harmful side effects or allergic reactions. Some top herbal ingredients & their benefits include:
It is also important to develop a good skincare routine that involves cleansing and moisturizing your skin in the mornings, evenings and after workouts. Adjusting your lifestyle by eating a healthy diet, getting exercise, drinking lots of water and sustaining healthy sleep patterns will also help to make a significant difference to your skin’s appearance. While many cosmetic issues can arise during the summer, protecting your skin at any age is crucial not just for appearances, but for long-term health. Many people try and battle the effects of skin damage and aging, but sometimes can overlook hidden dangers, which may not be so forefront in our minds as aesthetic concerns.
Research has shown that the skin is exposed to the damaging effects of the sun’s UVA rays even through car windows and cloudy days, increasing the risk for cancer on the face, neck, arms, and hands. Dermatologists recommend using a daily sunscreen with SPF 15 or greater depending on activity levels, exposure, and complexion, as well as performing monthly self skin exams and annual professional checks. In addition to avoiding skin cancer, wrinkles are undoubtedly at the top of most adults’ skin care priorities. To help minimize the appearance of wrinkles and creases that appear around the eye area, cheek bones, or forehead prematurely, be sure to factor in the contributing environmental influences and follow a holistic lifestyle to help address these. While there are dozens of creams, gels and lotions on the market touting anti-aging, anti-wrinkle, and complexion-improving ingredients, factors like genetics, risks, and realistic expectations must also be considered.
