    Beauty Rituals and Ingredients for Beautiful Summer Skin

    Shea Radiance co-founder Funlayo Alabi looks at key ingredients to protect, moisturize and keep skin glowing all summer long.

    Summer marks the time for outdoor living, weekends at the beach, walks in the park and lots of exposure to the sun. Exposure to the UV rays of the sun cannot be completely avoided and can leave skin damaged and depleted during the course of the summer months.

    Beauty rituals and must-have ingredients for flawless summer skin:

     Treat  
    • Products that calm inflammation and redness from sun exposure contain actives that restore the hydro lipid film and nourish with amino acids to moisturize and restore skin. SEPICALM™ S contains Sodium Cocoyl Amino Acids & Sarcosine & Potassium Aspartate & Magnesium. According SEPPIC, these actives bring pleasure and comfort to sensitive and irritated skins through complete anti-stress protection.
    • Products containing actives like licorice, kojic acid, bearberry extracts, niacinamide, Vitamin C and retinoids are effective in treating and correcting sun induced hyper-pigmentation, sunspots and other skin discolorations.
     
    Moisturize  
    • Marine algae extracts rich in bioactive compounds have been found to contain anti-oxidant and anti-inflammatory properties that make it an ideal ingredient for summertime moisturizers. Hydrating moisturizers containing hyaluronic acid and collagen peptides also protect and nourish skin.
    • Lotions containing at least 10% shea butter are an excellent choice for summer time moisture. Shea butter, in addition to being a great moisturizer, contains naturally occurring sterols and triterpene esthers that soothe inflammation and accelerate healing of sun scorched skin. Shea butter also contains 5% sunscreen, providing an additional layer of sun protection.
    • Cleanse – During the hot and humid summer months, sweat and dirt can build up, causing pores to become clogged and acne breakouts on face chest and back. Cleansing products containing 2% salicylic acids are ideal to unclog pores for a clear complexion.
    • Protect – Sunscreen must be applied frequently and correctly in order to get the right amount of coverage to protect against skin damage. Sunscreen with SPF 30 or more is ideal.  It is recommended that a nickel size amount of sunscreen be applied to face and approximately 30 ml. on the body. Sunscreen can breakdown or be watered down by sweat and water, and needs to be reapplied often
     
    Updating a beauty regimen and products during the summer months is the key to beautiful skin. Ultimately, the best plan for sun protection is to stay out of the sun, especially at high noon. Wearing hats and other protective clothing is also recommended. Finally, it’s important to emphasize the importance of staying properly hydrated by drinking lots of water. Proper hydration flushes out toxins and helps create a healthy glowing complexion.
