How to prepare your skin for the holiday season

As the holiday season approaches, many look forward to lazy days in the sun. For your skin to stay healthy and beautiful throughout the summer, it's important to prepare well in advance. Without proper care, skin can quickly be damaged by strong UV rays, heat, and external influences. Here are our best tips to avoid skin problems and have a successful holiday season:

1. Prevent spots from sun exposure – The importance of exfoliation and pore care

During the summer months, the production of dead skin cells and sebum increases due to heat and humidity. This can make your skin dull, flaky, and less receptive to makeup and skincare products.

Why exfoliation is important:

• Dead skin cells prevent even tanning and can cause spots.
• They block the absorption of moisture and nutrients into the skin.
• Skin can look dirty and lifeless.

To achieve healthy and glowing skin, it is recommended to regularly remove excess dead skin cells. Exfoliation provides a smooth surface, allowing sunscreen and skincare products to be absorbed better and protect the skin more effectively.

2. Strengthen skin with regenerating products

The skin barrier is a natural shield that protects the skin from external influences and prevents moisture loss. When the skin barrier is weakened, the skin becomes dry, sensitive, and more prone to irritation and pigmentation.

Recommended products:

• Skin booster: An ampoule with active ingredients that strengthen and rebuild the skin. It can be applied directly to the skin, injected by professionals, or penetrate via microneedling.
• Collagen-regenerating ampoules: These products help make the skin firmer, more elastic, and healthier.

If you do not have access to advanced skincare products, it is important to provide plenty of moisture. Start at least one week before your holiday with a good moisturizer and nourishing face masks to build up the skin's moisture barrier.

3. Protect skin from UV rays to prevent aging

The sun is both wonderful and challenging for the skin. Strong UV rays, heat, and sweat increase the risk of irritation, hyperpigmentation, and premature aging.

Consequences of UV damage:

• Skin loses elasticity and becomes saggy.
• Fine lines and wrinkles appear faster.
• Increased redness, irritation, and pigmentation.

How to effectively protect your skin:

• Use high SPF sunscreen every day, even when it's cloudy.
• Rebuild skin after sun exposure with products containing collagen and PDRN. These ingredients strengthen the skin barrier and promote regeneration.
• Be sure to cool down and moisturize the skin after a day in the sun with soothing face masks and creams.

Summary:

✅ Exfoliation provides a clear and even skin tone.
✅ Moisture and regeneration strengthen the skin barrier.
✅ Sun protection prevents hyperpigmentation and wrinkles.
