Six Summer Skincare Tips

Red looks good for 4th of July fireworks but not on your skin

If you are planning a day outside for the 4th of July, or anytime this summer, here are some skincare tips to keep your skin glowing and healthy in the summer sun.

1. Cover Up: Holidays in the sun like the 4th of July are a great time for caps, hats, light-weight shirts with sleeves, long shorts, and swimsuit cover-ups. The more skin you cover, the healthier your skin will be. So put those red, white and blue clothes to good use and cover up!

2. Limit Your Exposure: Know when enough is enough. Don't bake in the sun all day.

3. Seek the Shade: Stay cool in the shade instead of the hot sun. If you can't find any shade, carry your own with a patriotic parasol, umbrella or other shade-producing device. Shade won't just protect your skin, it will keep you from overheating as well.

4. Drink Lots of Water: While tea and cola are refreshing on a hot day, they contain caffeine which works to dehydrate you, as well as sugar and other chemicals, especially found in sodas. Water is what your skin and body need on a hot summer day.

5. Use Sunscreen. Find a good moisturizing broad spectrum sunscreen and apply it several times if you are out for several hours and each time you get wet or sweat heavily. Today you can find sunscreens to suit a variety of skin types.

6. Keep Covered Up: At night continue to cover up, avoid perfume and scented soaps, and use a Chemical free, Deet-free insect repellent to avoid mosquito bites on your healthy skin.

July 4 Skin Health: Red, White and Blue but no Red on You!

Summer is about to hit with a vengeance as June turns into July and the 4th of July promises to bring the bright red of sunburn to unprotected skin. Parades, picnics, and pool parties may have your skin out in the sun more than usual, and if your patriotic summer wear does not cover you up enough on July 4, you may seeing red on July 5.

Sunburn is a form of radiation burn from an overexposure to ultraviolet (UV) radiation. It is not only painful, but sunburn causes premature aging and can lead to skin cancer. To keep your skin safe and healthy, use a broad-spectrum skin care product appropriate for your specific skin type.

Sunscreens for the Face

Wrinkles/Dryness: For those concerned with dryness, wrinkles, and fine lines, the ultimate sunscreen product is the Redefine Triple Defense Treatment. With photostable broad spectrum SPF 30 protection and a clinically proven concentration of powerful peptides to reduce the appearance of lines and wrinkles and visibly firm the skin.

Brown spots: For the strongest sunburn protection Reverse Broad Spectrum SPF 50+ Sunscreen features stabilized avobenzone and anti-oxidant/anti-inflammatory colorless carotenoids to provide prolonged broad spectrum protection.

Sensitive skin: The Soothe Mineral Sunscreen Broad Spectrum SPF 30 is made without chemical sunscreens, fragrance, dyes or alcohol that can irritate sensitive skin. The lightweight formula protects the skin and the skin’s delicate moisture barrier.

Acne: For those who suffer with acne, the wrong sunscreen can cause breakouts and blemishes, the Unblemish Oil Control Lotion Broad Spectrum SPF 20 controls oiliness as it protects against UV rays that intensify post-acne marks and uneven skin tone.

Body Sunscreen

Formulated to use on the entire body, Essentials Broad Spectrum SPF 30 Body Sunscreen is a light broad spectrum sunscreen that isn't sticky or greasy. It protects the skin’s moisture barrier and contains antioxidant vitamins C and E to absorb damaging free radicals and anti-inflammatory ingredients to protect skin from environmental stress.

For a July treat, receive a free Beach Tote, valued at $30, with every purchase over $200 including sunscreens now through July 31, 2013 from Rodan + Fields.
