In hot weather, the skin may not look perfect: enlarged pores, more active than usual, sebum production, redness, inflamed elements. In addition, in the summer heat, skin type can shift - from normal to combination, from combination to oily. Let's analyze the basic principles of competent support for skin health in the summer heat season.
Cleansing
In hot weather, the skin more actively produces natural lubrication and gets hence the oily sheen, clogged pores.
Cosmetics, mixed with sebum, create a beneficial environment for the development of bacteria. We want to clean our skin more often (and to the point of squeaking), there is a temptation to add alcohol-containing products to the care.
Thorough (quality) cleansing of the skin is important. But remember the basic rules: choose cleansers according to the needs of the skin, do not overdo it with aggressive assets. During a period of high solar activity, it is worth minimizing products containing acids, removing alcohol-containing tonic lotions.
Use gel or foam for washing + tonic according to skin type. Or two-phase cleansing: micellar water + gel / foam for washing, balm for cleansing + gel / foam for washing. Then the toner and move on to the moisturizing stage.
Once or twice a week, you can add a detox mask to the basic cleansing procedure.
For example, a mask Anti-stress Mask does the job perfectly. Deeply cleanses, tightens pores, delivers trace elements, evens out tone. Due to the content of bamboo charcoal, it conducts a mild detox, normalizes the production of skin sebum.
The mask contains antioxidants, has a slight anti-inflammatory effect, reduces swelling, tightens the oval of the face.
Exfoliation
It must be done, but correctly and carefully. Pores tend to get clogged all the time, and you want to “free” them. Use soft products, refuse acid peels for the summer, do not use a scrub daily.
What is possible?
Exfoliation with the help of enzymes of plant origin, which exfoliate gently, dissolving and removing impurities from the skin along with dead skin particles. Enzyme powder acts delicately without damaging the skin, and does an excellent job of exfoliating in the summer.
Enzyme Powder SkinMag Cleansing Facial Powder contains papain and bromelain for delicate deep cleansing, as well as vitamin C in a stable form - to even out the tone of the face and lightly brighten.
Enzyme powder gently and thoroughly cleanses, removes impurities from pores and tightens them, promotes cell renewal.
Enzyme powder is a product for the evening ritual of care.
It is not necessary to carry out the procedure with active exfoliation in the morning, before going out into the sun because it can harm the skin, up to the appearance of age spots. After applying the enzyme powder, the products of the next stages of care will work better. Tone and apply serums, masks according to skin type. Do not forget to close the serum with a cream, it is best to finish the evening procedures 40 minutes to an hour before bedtime.
Scrub in the summer is also suitable for exfoliation. Try to choose a scrub with the softest particles or an enzyme one - containing those same plant enzymes in addition to exfoliants of a soft texture. 
That's what scrub is Face Scrub from Spani contains fermented cranberry extract (cranberry enzymes), as well as apple fibers - they absorb the remaining sebum and gently polish the skin. Cellulose fiber granulate has a spherical shape without sharp edges, it gently rolls dead cells from the surface of the skin - according to the gommage principle.
Use the scrub no more than 1–2 times a week, depending on your skin type. If you use enzyme powder in parallel, you can alternate, but you should not use both products on the same day.
Excessive cleansing leads to a violation of the protective functions of the skin, and also contributes to an even more abundant secretion of sebum - this is how the skin seeks to compensate for our wrong actions, and we get the opposite effect.
Moisturizing
Sufficient hydration during the summer heat is a super important story.
A common mistake in summer care is to skip the moisturizing step, that is, to refuse the cream altogether.
It's not worth doing that.
And you need to choose the right cream - one that does not weigh down the skin, is easily absorbed and contains components for transporting moisture inside and keeping it in the deep layers of the skin.
Pay attention to gel-like creams and fluids that contain hyaluronic acid, squalane, and urea. All these components contribute to the conduction of moisture into the deep layers, help to normalize the hydrobalance.
In the line of our products have a light texture and contain low molecular weight hyaluronic acid base cream Moisturizing Face Cream, eye cream Lifting Eye Cream.
Cream with retinol and biolifting effect SkinMag Biolifting with Retinol can also be used in summer. The cream has the lightest consistency and a balanced formula for moisturizing and caring for the skin at night. Retinol in a mild form retinyl retinoate is contained in an encapsulated form, therefore it is delivered directly to the deep layers of the skin and does not cause an increase in sensitivity, photosensitivity, or peeling. 
Feel free to add this night cream to your care. It soothes and fills with moisture, eliminates redness and promotes the regeneration of inflamed elements, regulates the sebaceous glands.
If the skin needs more saturated hydration because of dryness, a feeling of tightness or signs of dehydration, you can add masks with moisturizing ingredients to your care. Mask Gold Bio-Cellulose Mask + Collagen & Hyaluronic Acid with hyaluronic acid and collagen hydrolyzate also contains aloe extract, vitamins A and C. Convenient hydrogel mask - for morning or evening use. Fills with moisture, smoothes creases, improves firmness and elasticity. Store the mask in the refrigerator in the summer. It is an invaluable addition to the procedure.
Water balance
An important component of high-quality skin hydration is a sufficient drinking regimen. All the hyaluronic acid in the world will not help you if you consume little water throughout the day. It is the amount of pure water (not juices, tea, coffee and other drinks) that matters for skin health and the speed of metabolic processes.
At least 30 ml per kilogram of body is the norm for a healthy adult in the normal state. When we sweat profusely, overheat, get nervous, the daily rate increases.
So drink. Regularly, enough, with pleasure. Skin quality and overall tone are your reward.
Extra care
No matter how much you want to relieve the skin as much as possible in hot weather, you should not completely cancel additional care.
We have already talked about exfoliation. Moisturizing (and nourishing) is not only a cream. Serums, masks, cosmetic procedures according to the needs of the skin - should be present in the care in the summer.
Serum is able to deliver nutrients and promote hydration, support the protective function of the skin, deliver antioxidants, even out tone, eliminate inflammation, and tighten pores. Choose a product according to the seasonal needs of the skin.
Serum ProBioBalance and Serum Therapy with Bakuchiol, are suitable even for sensitive skin. Moisture balance (and additional moisture), work with the microbiome, strengthening the protective properties of the skin, anti-aging components plus regeneration. Both serums have a light texture and are perfectly absorbed by the skin without weighing it down.
Serum Anti-age and SkinMag Serum are suitable for adult skin of any type. Lightweight, absorbs quickly and helps retain moisture. Both serums contain anti-aging ingredients.
Squalane is a vegetable skin oil is the only exception to the “no oils during the hot season” rule. This mono product can be used to eliminate dryness (also for the skin of the hands), and also used for facial massage without fear of getting closed comedones.
The appearance of inflamed elements on skin that is not prone to acne is an unpleasant norm in the summer heat. SOS tool Acne-gel with Calamine will help to correct the situation quickly. Just apply it pointwise on the elements of inflammation before going to bed and in the morning part of the problem will be solved.
For systemic work with inflammation, a sebum-regulating mask Sebo-Controlling Mask is suitable. Even one procedure improves skin condition: eliminates redness caused by inflammation, evens out tone, tightens pores, promotes healing, mattifies.
The mask can be used all over the face or locally - applied only to inflamed areas or areas with increased activity of the sebaceous glands.
This mask is a must for removing acne type manifestations. Natural ingredients plus a slight cooling effect.
UV Protection
The most important part of summer care is the presence of UV filters in daytime products.
In any weather during the period of active sun, if the daily UV index is above 2, apply a product with a protection factor SPF (UVB radiation type) and PA (UVA radiation type).
Fluid Anti-stress SPF 35 has a light texture and does not weigh down the skin at all. It can be applied as a top layer after a basic moisturizer or as a solo treatment - if the skin wants lightness. Contains an organic SPF filter.
BB-cream with SPF-15/PA++ - is a BB cream of the lightest texture with a slight tinting effect. Contains a mixed organic UV filter that protects against both types of radiation.
The product contains a complex of assets for proper nutrition and skin hydration: vegetable squalane, D-panthenol, jojoba oil, as well as a complex of four types of hyaluronic acid. This cream can be applied immediately after toning - it completely covers the needs of the skin plus effectively protects against ultraviolet radiation.
The cream adapts to the skin tone and gives the effect of makeup “without makeup” - just what you need in summer.
Do not forget about UV protection for the body - before each exit to the street, apply a product with a protection factor to exposed skin. Don't neglect your headgear - hair also suffers from solar radiation.
Makeup
Of course, it requires lightness. I want to remove foundation, minimize the number of layers, ensure matte, but not overload the skin.
What can be done?
Basicly take care of moisturizing (understood above).
Replace your foundation with a BB cream, preferably with sunscreen.
Our recommendation is a BB-cream with SPF-15/PA++ + Mineral Face Powder SPF 15. Loose light powder has a neutral tone and also adjusts to the skin tone. Cares, balances moisture depending on the humidity of the environment, mattifies, gives a slight shine.
Make-up becomes easy: BB cream + mineral powder = the effect of healthy radiant skin in just a few minutes.
Remember to cleanse your skin thoroughly. Both SPF products and the tinting components of both products require a two-phase cleansing. Do not be lazy to do a detox mask a couple of times a week and use enzyme powder at night.
The best gift for glowing skin is a good rest. Try to get enough sleep, move enough, drink water.
Walk more, apply spf, choose light makeup products.
And put your patches in the fridge. That's all summer secrets.
