How to care for your skin after the summer

Vacations leave us with a multitude of memories, anecdotes, and a ton of pleasant sensations… let's hold onto them! But there is also a "B-side" to summer. Your skin may have suffered, and natural cosmetics will help you restore its hydrolipidic layer to improve its defenses and keep it hydrated and nourished.

After the holidays and returning to your routine, it is normal to notice certain imperfections in your skin, as well as finding it looks a bit duller, especially now that your tan is fading away.

In summer, our skin is exposed to many different external aggressions. The sun is considered the most harmful external agent for our skin. This is due to UVB radiation, which often causes spots, burns, or even more serious lesions.

However, it is not the only agent that harms the skin. We cannot forget sea water or pool chlorine, humidity, temperature changes, changes in our diet and sleep routine, etc.

All these agents can cause different types of damage to our skin, for example:

• new spots or increased intensity in existing ones
• lack of hydration
• flaking
• dry skin
• new wrinkles
• loss of radiance

But everything has a solution; you just need to detect the problem and get to work… right now. Because, although you have to take care of your skin all year round, it is now that we have the opportunity to take advantage of these months to give our skin the care it needs so it can recover.

What benefits do natural and organic cosmetics provide you?

The first step should be returning to healthy lifestyle habits: exercising regularly, following a healthy diet, drinking plenty of water, sleeping eight hours a day, not drinking alcohol or smoking, and maintaining an appropriate cosmetic routine.

In addition to the general guidelines, which basically consist of resuming good habits, we must take care of our daily cosmetic routine, relying on certain natural cosmetic products that will help our skin look better and be healthier.

• Cleanse your skin delicately: Natural soap is full of essential fatty acids, vitamins, and trace elements that cleanse delicately while simultaneously protecting your skin's hydrolipidic layer. Our organic body soaps of lavender and shea butter or the rosemary one, which in addition to smelling great, protect the skin and are 100% organic.

• Exfoliate deeply: You can do it yourself, or let yourself be pampered by a professional aesthetician. We remind you that at Saper we work with our line of professional natural cosmetics in many beauty centers. In them, you can enjoy one of our delicate Facial or Body Rituals. It is essential to do this, not only before sun exposure but also after the holidays, to remove dead cells and regenerate the skin before moisturizing it. Plus, this way you will make your tan last longer.

• Check your skin health: now is a good time to review the state of your skin, your moles, or spots, and if you observe any change in size, color, or appearance, do not hesitate to go to a dermatologist for a proper diagnosis.
