Just because the winter’s finally left us for this year and the sun has made an appearance doesn’t mean that your skin will find it any easier. Throughout the winter your skin is battered by central heating systems and extreme weather conditions and you constantly have to rehydrate your skin in order to keep it in good condition. When the winter weather calms a little and the spring and summer sunshine set in a lot of people think they can sit back and relax because their skin has made it through the worst when in fact this isn’t the case at all. The sun, salt water and chlorine that all come with summer holidays and frolicking in the sun can also have a detrimental effect on your skin which is why, even in the summer, it’s important to make sure your skin is thoroughly hydrated.

Dermalogica’s Skin Smoothing Cream is a great moisturiser that will keep your skin hydrated, firm and smooth throughout the summer months. This product is great for people with dry skin who want to hydrate and moisturise to the max in order to make sure their skin looks great throughout the year.

If you have oily skin then try Dermalogica’s best seller, Active Moist, it’s oil free and provide deep hydration without causing your pores to become blocked and out breaks to occur.

Keep oily skin under control this summer

Oily skin is difficult to look after at the best of times but in the middle of summer when the humidity is unbearable it’s an absolute nightmare – unless you treat it properly. Another common occurrence throughout the year is the make-up slide and this is once again made worse by oily skin and hot weather. Shiny skin and sliding make-up is exactly what tempts you to apply more throughout the day which can consequently block your pores and cause an outbreak of spots – something you really don’t want through the summer.

If you want to avoid this and get oily skin under control then a good skin care regime is essential and will keep your face looking fresh throughout the day.

Try starting your day with Dermalogica’s Dermal Clay Cleanser which is intended for excessively oily skin. It will gently treat the skin while deeply cleaning the pores to remove any dirt and impurities.

Then try Dermalogica’s bestseller Active Moist which is an oil-free moisturiser that’s light weight so won’t clog your pores and is suitable for everyday use.

Finally, their Oil Control Lotion helps to regulate sebum production – so that your skin doesn’t produce more than it needs to – and absorbs any excess oils on the surface of the skin leaving your skin looking fresh all day long.

Why moisturising is essential

Everyone needs to moisturise no matter what skin type you are because it will help your skin look and feel much brighter and healthier. If you have normal to oily skin then you are extremely lucky but it doesn’t mean that you don’t have to moisturise. Normal to oily skin produces the right amount of natural oils to keep your skin smooth and clean without causing spots or dryness. If you use a high quality moisturiser on your skin then it will help maintain its condition as well as the way it looks and feels. If you don’t moisturise then your almost perfect skin is at risk of becoming either dry or spotty.

There are so many moisturisers out there you can understand why people who are unfamiliar with them seriously struggle and would rather not treat their skin to the products it needs than read the back of hundreds of moisturiser bottles to find the perfect one. Dermalogica can save you the time you spend roaming round your local beauty store, it can save you the money that you spend when you buy loads of moisturisers that don’t work just to find one that does; Dermalogica’s Active Moist is one of the highest rated and best-selling moisturisers out there, it helps to condition the skin and improve the skin’s hydration. Active Moist isn’t the only moisturiser that you could try either, Dermalogica have a whole range of moisturisers that are suitable for all different skin types so it’s really easy to find one that will suit you.

Kate Hudson describes herself as a “soap and water girl” who uses a cleanser, a moisturiser, a bit of eye cream and that’s it. If this sounds like a skin care routine that could suit you then why don’t you try Dermalogica’s Special Cleansing Gel, Active Moist and Total Eye Care to get your skin as simplistically beautiful as Kate Hudson’s?

Dermalogica’s Special Cleansing Gel is great for all skin types and provides the ultimate deep clean. The formula is full of plant extracts which melt through any layers of excess oil to keep your skin squeaky clean. It also removes sun protection, waterproof make up and any pollutants that have built up over the surface of the skin – for a clean complexion a cleanser is a must have.

Dermalogica’s Active Moist is oil free so there’s no danger of shiny skin; it’s also light enough for everyday use. It completely rehydrates dry and dehydrated skin and maintains the skin’s natural moisture levels; lemon, watercress and burdock also help to refine the skin and lavender and mallow soothe and provide deep hydration.

Dermalogica’s Total Eye Care also contains essential SPF protection to protect the delicate eye area from any sun damage. Hydroxy acids and plant extracts are used to firm and texturise the skin. They also work to prevent the premature signs of aging such as fine lines and puffiness. Dark circles are combated and your skin becomes clear and youthful once again.

These are great products and using them every day isn’t much to ask if your skin will be as clean as Kate Hudson’s.

Less is definitely best when it comes to make up

Every time you go out you’ll see the people that are being stared because they’ve literally painted their face with foundation, blusher and concealer; they don’t see that there’s anything wrong with the way that they look but if they stood in a mirror with a few other members of the public they’d probably get the hint. The point is, too many people aren’t confident enough to leave the house without a full face of make up and it doesn’t look good. It might look good on the dance floor of a local club on a Friday night but it doesn’t look right mid-week when most people are going about their usual nine to five business. However, there are ways that this can be changed. If you’re one of those people who probably wears a bit too much make up then listen up because less is definitely more.

Wearing less make up but still feeling just as confident is much easier than you might first think and it also mean you can stay in bed for an extra half an hour in a morning because you don’t have to spend hours in front of the mirror applying your make up. Firstly, make sure you use a cleanser and make sure it’s a good one. Try Dermalogica’s Special Cleansing Gel and Precleanse formulas in order to give yourself a good make up base and to keep your spots at bay. A good moisturiser is also essential; Dermalogica’s Active Moist restores your skin’s natural moisture levels, protects and calms. This may seem unnecessary but because your skin will be in much better condition from not wearing so much make up, you will be much more confident.

If you still wish to wear some kind of cover up the Dermalogica’s Concealing Spot Treatment and a Treatment Foundation are definitely for you. Both of these products will give you the o=coverage of any high street make up brand but it will also provide your skin with moisture, vitamins and prevent the development of breakouts.

By following this advice not only will you look better but your skin will feel better and you’ll save loads on cosmetics.
