Dealing with Summer Skin

During the summer, we experience many skin issues such as redness and peeling. What is the culprit behind these issues? The answer is: the sun. During the summer, the sun is closer to the earth and the days become longer. We get more time to spend outside, but our skin also has more opportunities to burn.

Dealing with sunburns can be tricky and quite uncomfortable. They cause your skin to become increasingly sensitive and can often cause your skin to peel. The good news is there is relief from those uncomfortable symptoms. Theraderm Fruit Acid helps redirect the external energy from the sun at the cellular level and converts it to stored chemical energy instead of creating damaging free radicals.  This means damage from the sun is stopped before more harm can occur. Aloe Vera leaf extract soothes sunburns and is present in Theraderm OPC Reparative Serum. NuPeel Natural Enzyme Peel is also useful for removing flaky skin that is starting to peel after sunburns and helps to restore soft, smooth skin.

While the sun is certainly a major culprit for summertime skin issues, insects can also cause discomfort. Itching from insect bites is caused by the release of irritating histamine from the cells’ response in our immune systems. Antihistamines are effective at neutralizing this discomfort. However, Theraderm Fruit Acid can also be used on insect bites to provide excellent relief.

Moisturizing daily is the key to preventing dry summer skin. Being out in the sun, or in the water, for too long can cause your skin to dry and lose its moisture. Moisturizing your skin and limiting your sun exposure will help keep your skin hydrated.

Sun damage makes our skin aging progress and become more apparent. Using a broad spectrum sunscreen daily helps protect your skin from UVA and UVB rays, which cause skin cancer and wrinkles. Theraderm Platinum Protection Facial Sunscreen gives your skin maximum protection. Its oil and streak-free formula is non-irritating and allows it to be used over or under makeup. There’s no reason not to use it! Protect your skin from summertime issues with these tips and tricks!
