Are you noticing a change in your skin’s health as the months get warmer? The truth is, as the seasons change, so should your skin care routine! Take a look at some important skin care tips you should follow to keep your beautiful complexion in top condition this summer. 
ALWAYS WEAR SUNSCREEN
While it’s important to wear sunscreen on sunny days, did you know you can still be affected by harmful ultraviolet (UV) rays when it’s cloudy, too? Avoid these complications by using a protective sunscreen. Anders Dermatology offers a variety of sunscreens to keep your skin hydrated and protected from overexposure to UV rays.
MAINTAIN MOISTURIZED AND HYDRATED SKIN
In addition to using sunscreen, you should also make sure your daily skin care routine includes a hydrating moisturizer. Warmer weather can dry out the skin, leaving it prone to cracking and peeling. Anders Dermatology recommends adding these clinical-grade skin care products to your summer skin care routine for hydrated, revitalized skin.
Avéne – Created with thermal spring water from the Cévennes Mountains in southwest France, Avéne’s products contain a perfectly balanced mineral composition that helps heal, soothe and soften normal to sensitive skin.
SkinMedica® – SkinMedica’s innovative NouriCel-MDS formula blend offers a noticeable improvement in firmness and appearance of the skin.
Glytone – The Glytone collection includes proper exfoliating products for a smoother, clearer and more even skin tone by incorporating pure glycolic acid.
NOURISH YOUR SKIN WITH A CLINICAL FACIAL
Due to the higher risk of sun exposure during the summer months, adding a routine clinical facial to your skin care routine is the perfect way to protect your skin from UV exposure. Plus, clinical facials can lighten the appearance of existing sunspots, offering you a clearer complexion.
Summer also means increased sweating, which can make your skin more prone to clogged pores and breakouts. Anders Dermatology offers a wide range of clinical facials that can be customized to any skin type—and can treat a variety of concerns. Whether you’re seeking to hydrate, cleanse or re-energize your skin, we have a facial for you!
PRACTICE SAFE TANNING
While getting a tanned complexion is a common practice during the summer, make sure you’re taking into account the risks associated with natural and artificial tanning!
UV rays can cause a multitude of skin concerns, like premature aging of the skin—or worse, skin cancer. And if you think tanning beds are a safer option, the truth is they actually emit 25 times more harmful radiation than natural sunlight. Plus, you have the risk of bacteria and viruses that can be left behind from other users.
Instead of putting your skin’s health at risk, consider using a dermatologist-recommended self-tanning lotion! Anders Dermatology offers two powerful self-tanning lotions that are safe and effective alternatives to tanning. Avéne’s non-greasy, hydrating self-tanner provides a subtle glow that deepens with each application. And if you’re seeking a more dramatic look, the jane iredale collection includes a self-tanning lotion perfect for larger areas like the arms and legs. It provides deeper results for that beautiful summer glow—without the harmful effects!
