We sometimes forget about the crucial role that our skin - the largest organ in our body - plays in our health. Our skin protects us against outside influences. It acts as a living shield against harmful factors so take care of it on a daily basis, even during an Indian summer.
DON'T WAIT UNTIL AFTER THE SUMMER TO TAKE CARE OF YOUR SKIN
It is essential to prepare your skin for the summer months and also to take extra care of the skin while sunbathing. The skin is often dehydrated due to exposure to UV radiation, heat, chlorinated water and seawater, making additional hydration indispensable. You can also read more about hydrating creams in our blog 'How do hydrating creams work? '.
Increased sun exposure during the summer months causes oxidative stress, which produces free radicals in the body. Oxidative stress is a biological process that damages body cells. It is one of the main causes of skin ageing. The body protects itself against oxidation through antioxidants. When we overexpose our body to harmful factors such as the sun, we have a lack of antioxidants and our skin is not adequately protected. That is why it is crucial to replenish your skin's antioxidants before and during the summer, both through skin care products with antioxidant properties and a diet rich in antioxidants.
It is important to try and limit the damage after high sun exposure but prevention is still the golden rule . Certainly do not wait until after the summer to start with your customer-tailored skincare .
All Nomige day creams contain an SPF15 for daily protection. The day cream 'UV protect' even contains an SPF30, ideal for the summer months. Already a customer and want to order? Then send us an email .

DOES YOUR SKIN NEED DIFFERENT CARE IN THE SUMMER?
Actually, yes, because the external factors that can damage our skin can be different in summer than in winter.
Low-level sun protection in your day cream is important all year long, but especially in the summer. Choose a day cream that has an SPF factor such as the 'Nomige lifestyle cream' that contains both a UVA and UVB filter. If you intend to go sunbathing or spend time in the sun it is necessary to apply sunscreen with a high SPF factor on top of your day cream.
HYDRATING CREAMS
Opt for a moisturizing cream in summer. It will not only moisturize your skin but also have a cooling effect on hot summer days.
The Nomige night serum that is part of your evening routine will boost your skin's hydration levels.
WATER
In addition to good skin care it is essential to drink enough water. We lose more moisture in summer so it's important to replenish our moisture levels. When we don't drink enough water our skin may look dull, feel dry to the touch and lose its elasticity.
