SUMMER | SKINCARE
Dear patients,
Summer is a beautiful season, but it can place real stress on your skin barrier, even if you have a solid routine. Heat, humidity, UV exposure and constant sweating all work together to dehydrate the skin, disrupt its natural oils and weaken the barrier that’s meant to protect you.
When this barrier becomes overwhelmed, you may notice increased breakouts, sensitivity, redness, congestion, or that your skin suddenly feels dry but oily at the same time. This is completely normal, and it’s simply your skin asking for a little extra support.
During summer, think “light but consistent”: lightweight hydrators, a gentle cleanser that removes sweat and SPF buildup, antioxidants to protect from sun damage, and strict daily sunscreen (with reapplication). These small changes help keep your barrier calm, balanced, and healthy through the hotter months.
If you’re feeling unsure about what your skin needs right now, please reach out supporting your skin barrier is one of the best gifts you can give yourself this season. 💛
With care,
Marli 💛
