You are not alone in this! The sunny months certainly test our skin. At the Maruderm team, we often encounter this problem as well, and we want to help ensure that your skin remains healthy and radiant by the end of summer.
What happens to our skin in summer?
Prolonged sun exposure and warm weather can weaken the skin's protective system. UV rays stimulate melanin production. This is a natural defense mechanism, but if too much is produced, dark spots can appear on the skin. Increased sweating, pollutants, and an inadequate skincare routine can also contribute to these issues.
Here comes the good news: with the right attention, we can prevent summer skin blemishes! We have gathered four clinically proven methods that we confidently recommend for your daily routine:
1. Sun protection every day – not just at the beach!
Sun protection is fundamental.Every morning, use at least SPF 30 sunscreen, even on cloudy days. The Maruderm sunscreens are easily absorbed, do not leave a greasy feeling, yet provide maximum protection against harmful UVA and UVB rays.
2. Antioxidants – a shield for your skin from within
Serums rich in vitamins C and E help neutralize free radicals, thus protecting the skin from premature aging and spots. The Maruderm serums are not only effective but also gentle, making them an essential part of daily care.
3. Gentle exfoliation or laser treatment – for skin renewal
Due to sunlight, the upper layer of the skin can easily discolor. A well-chosen chemical exfoliant or laser treatment can help remove dead skin cells, lighten spots, and result in a more even skin tone.
4. Hydration – from the inside and the outside!
In summer, the skin loses a lot of moisture. Regular hydration, even with a light Maruderm moisturizer, helps maintain the skin's elasticity, makes it more resistant to external effects, and prevents the formation of new skin imperfections.
Skin imperfections are not just aesthetic problems – protect your skin consciously!
Many people only start to take sun-induced spots seriously when they become permanent. However, prevention is much more effective – and simpler too! Think of it as wearing sunglasses for your skin.
What can Vitamin C and SPF do together?
This duo is a true super pair in summer skincare! Vitamin C makes the skin more radiant and supports regeneration, while SPF prevents the harmful effects of UV rays.At Maruderm, we offer several products that combine these two important protections, so you don't have to choose between effectiveness and comfort.
What about retinol in the summer?
Common question: can retinol be used during the warm months? The answer: yes, but with caution! Choose a lower concentration, summer-safe formula, and definitely use sunscreen alongside it. However, for sensitive skin, it is advisable to look for alternative ingredients.
Acne-prone skin requires even more attention in the summer
Due to the warm, humid air and increased sebum production, acne occurs more frequently in the summer, especially for oilier skin types. Gentle cleansers containing salicylic acid from Maruderm help prevent skin blemishes without drying out or irritating the skin.
