Sun, water, and lots of outdoor fun—summer, you're beautiful! But while we enjoy the long days, our skin needs special attention. Heat, UV rays, and (salt) water can take their toll. Learn how to optimally protect and care for your skin so it stays radiant all summer long.

Why is skin care so important in summer?

In summer, our skin is more exposed to environmental factors such as sunlight , heat , chlorine , and salt water . These factors can lead to dryness, premature aging, sunburn, and irritation. A customized skincare routine helps strengthen the skin barrier , retain moisture, and prevent damage, keeping your skin healthy and resilient.

5 tips for your summer skincare routine

1. Gentle cleansing in the morning and evening

Start and end your day with a thorough yet gentle cleanse . In summer, we sweat more, and our skin produces more sebum. A gentle cleanser removes sweat, sebum, dirt, and sunscreen residue without drying out the skin. This allows subsequent care products to work more effectively. Did you know that cleansing with pure shea butter is completely free!?

2. Use natural moisturizers

Heavy creams can feel uncomfortable in the summer. Choose lighter formulations that nourish your skin without leaving a greasy residue. Products with natural fats like shea butter offer intensive care without clogging pores. Even if they feel heavy at first, the right amount is important: You only need a tiny bit per application!

3. Sunscreen is your best friend

The most important tip of all: daily sun protection! UV radiation is still active even on cloudy days. Choose a sunscreen with a high SPF (at least 30) and apply it generously. Don't forget your ears, neck, and hands. Regular reapplying, especially after swimming or sweating, is crucial.

4. Soothing care after sunbathing

After a day in the sun, your skin needs soothing and rejuvenation . Aloe vera or cooling balms like the mint-scented body butter with natural ingredients can help soothe redness and rejuvenate the skin. Moisture is important; ALWAYS apply water, aloe vera, or a hydrosol before applying shea butter to prevent dryness.

5. Don't forget your lips and hair

It's not just facial skin that needs protection: Lips and hair are also vulnerable to damage in the summer . Use a lip balm with SPF and protect your hair with a hat to prevent it from drying out due to sun and salt water. In the evening, you can generously apply a portion of any SHEA YEAH product to your lips – it helps with regeneration.

Conclusion

With the right care and the right products, nothing stands in the way of a radiant summer. Give your skin the attention it deserves and enjoy the sunny days to the fullest.

FAQs

Q: Why should I use water-free skincare products in the summer?

A: Water-free skincare products are ideal in summer because they are highly concentrated and do not require preservatives. They provide intensive care and protection without weighing down or drying the skin, which is beneficial for heat-induced sweating and moisture loss. The amount can be adjusted depending on the application: more of the product in winter, less in summer.

Q: Does sunscreen also help against skin aging?

A: Yes, sunscreen is the most effective anti-aging protection . UV radiation is the main cause of premature skin aging, wrinkles, and dark spots. Regular and adequate sunscreen preserves skin elasticity and youthful radiance.
