Every season brings along new challenges with your skin. The colder months always create dryness, irritation and more dead skin sloughing off. Where as the warmer months produce more oil. Especially in an area like Virginia, DC and Maryland. The humidity can cause lots of clogged pores and breakouts.  In the summer months try to avoid heavier creams, unless you have very dry skin or they have been recommended for a specific purpose.

Sunscreen is a must! Though this is important throughout the year, we recommend an SPF 30 in your everyday regime during the summer especially. Overexposure to the sun changes the very makeup of your skin, the collagen and elasticity is impacted which then causes premature wrinkling, bags and fine lines. The skin is also weakened from the sun. Up to 90% of skin aging is due to sun damage.

In addition to the sunscreen, we need to remind you, don’t skip your cleanser! Getting into a night time and morning routine may be tough, but especially in the summer months it is important. If you ignore cleansing this can lead to breakouts and scaring down the line. To help with breakouts and clogged pores we are more than willing to help with our European Deep Pore Cleansing Facial. This treatment removes impurities and deals with problem areas. We highly recommend it for those who are finding yourself breaking out more as the temperatures rise!
