Understanding Summer Skin Concerns
The shift in seasons brings increased humidity, stronger UV radiation, and more time spent outdoors. These factors can exacerbate existing skin concerns and introduce new ones, including:
Increased Oiliness and Breakouts: Higher temperatures and humidity can lead to increased sebum production, clogging pores and triggering acne breakouts summer.
Sun Sensitivity and Damage: Prolonged sun exposure without adequate sun protection can result in sunburn, premature aging (fine lines, wrinkles, dark spots), and even increase the risk of skin cancer.
Dehydration: Despite the humidity, your skin can still become dehydrated due to increased sweating and exposure to drying environmental factors like air conditioning, impacting hydration summer skin.
Uneven Skin Tone and Hyperpigmentation: Sun exposure can worsen existing hyperpigmentation and lead to the development of new sunspots.

This summer, let’s guide you on a journey to healthy, glowing skin with these essential summer skin tips and our personalized facial experiences.
Trending Summer Skincare Tips You Need to Know
Lightweight Serums/Moisturizers are Key: Swap heavy winter creams for lighter, gel-based or water-based moisturizers and serums. Look for ingredients like hyaluronic acid, which draws moisture into the skin without feeling greasy.
Sun Protection is Your Non-Negotiable Best Friend: This isn't just a summer tip, it's a year-round essential! Choose a broad-spectrum SPF of 30 or higher and apply it liberally every day, even on cloudy days. Don't forget to reapply every two hours, especially after swimming or sweating. Remember to check the expiration date – old sunscreen loses its efficacy!
Embrace Antioxidants for Skin Power: Incorporate serums rich in antioxidants for skin like Vitamin C and exosomes into your routine. These powerhouse ingredients help protect and heal your skin from free radical damage caused by UV radiation and pollution.
Gentle Exfoliation is Essential: While you want to shed away dead skin cells that can contribute to breakouts, avoid harsh scrubs that can irritate sun-exposed skin. Opt for gentle exfoliation with chemical exfoliants like AHAs (glycolic and lactic acid) or BHAs (salicylic acid) a couple of times a week, and always follow with sunscreen.
Hydrate From Within: Don't forget the importance of internal skin hydration! Drink plenty of water throughout the day to keep your skin plump and healthy. Incorporate water-rich fruits and vegetables into your diet.
Treat Sunburn Seriously: If you do get sunburned, soothe the affected area with cool compresses, DMK Beta Gel, and avoid further sun exposure. Book a Glacial treatment to help cool and soothe your burn. Seek professional help for severe sunburn treatment.
Don't Neglect Your Eyes and Lips: These delicate areas are particularly vulnerable to sun damage. Use a dedicated eye cream with SPF and a lip balm with sun protection.
