The essentials to enjoy summer without damaging your skin
Summer is on, and despite the fact, there’s a worldwide pandemic out there, we still can be outdoors, and enjoy summer without damaging your skin.
And if you’re following our weekly blog, by now you know that sun is on the Top 3 factors for premature aging.
So here we are going to set you up for summer and enjoy the sun, the beach, the mountains, wherever you want to go, without damaging your skin.
Sunscreen will always be the number one thing we have to be in mind. So no matter how old you are, it’s never too late to have a summer skincare routine.
But there are more things you can do to your skin, so you can get the most out of your summer skincare routine, and keep glowing with youthful lifted appearance!
Exfoliate your skin during summer to avoid breakouts
Exfoliating the skin is essential to keep your skin fresh, and clean from breakouts.
Humidity and sweat is the perfect environment for breakouts. The thing is that pores can get clogged due to excess of sweat, and sebum produced by the glands, and when dead skin cells meet these elements, inflammation gets triggered promoting breakout.
That’s when exfoliation comes to place, and it’s very important, to do it at least once a week.
The best way to do that is through Glycolic Acid or Salicylic Acid.
For more resilient, and oily skin, two times a week, is more than enough.
- Salicylic Acid is more indicated for Acne-Prone skin, where you can use it as a cleanser. It removes dead skin cells and grease from skin and pores.
- Glycolic Acid when the main objective is to work on deep lines and wrinkles.
It comes without saying but just in case, when using these kinds of acids, Sunscreen, hat, and sunglasses are essential accessories during the whole season.

It’s a good time for cooler showers… and that’s good for the skin!
It’s scientifically proved that cooler showers have great benefits to the skin.
The thing is that our skin and hair have natural moisture, which protects them from drying out, so they don’t strip.
This is why many times, we are always saying that we should never cleanse our skin with hot water. It removes the natural barrier creating a vulnerable door for dry skin and believe it or not, in many cases excess of oil production, once the skin naturally needs moisture.
There are other benefits to a cool shower, especially when it’s hot. Besides the incredible feeling of freshness, it’s excellent for blood circulation flow.
The darker spots are a potential risk for melanoma.
A lightweight moisturizer, to keep the skin sealed and protected.
A moisturizer plays a very important role once traps water into skin cells for longer.
After receiving the serum of your preference to treat your skin, based on your skin goals, the thing you don’t want in your skin is something sticky, greasy, leaving that feeling you need another shower…
That’s why it is important to have a lightweight moisturizer. It doesn’t necessarily mean it’s a weak moisturizer, but a product that can be easily and quickly absorbed.
In this case, the X3 Firming Peptide Cream is perfect for this situation. And not only for sealing the skin to avoid dehydration, but also because it has potent antioxidants, to help even skin from age spots, acting directly on wrinkles and fine lines.
The same UF Complex loaded with potent antioxidants, protects the skin against sun damage.
Definitely there’s nothing else better than this moisturizer.

Guess what we need to do to our skin after sun exposure? Moisturize and drink plenty of water
Even though we are all cautious about being outdoors, we have to have in mind that even for a short period, or when it’s overcast, there’s still enough UV Rays to cause damage to your skin.
At the same time, sun exposure drains water from skin cells, and also from our body, so that’s why we need to drink a lot of water and moisturize.
And the sun can take a toll on your skin, stripping the outermost layer of the skin, causing pain, and damage, such as sunburn, and age spots.
There’s no such thing as drink water only when you’re thirsty. Actually, when we are thirsty, we are already dehydrated! Yes, that’s right. While in the sun, we have to be sipping water every 15 minutes to keep the body hydrated.
To make sure you’re up to date with hydration, the reference is 8-12 glasses of water a day.
A good moisturizer plays the same role as the water we drink. We supply our skin with actives to ensure extra moisture to our skin, once our natural barrier is not enough to protect our skin against sun damage.
Sunscreen, sunscreen, and sunscreen! Please
We can’t stress enough that whatever the situation is, sunscreen is your number one ally for summertime!
Sunscreen on the skin is like wearing a bulletproof vest against sun radiation. There are chemical sunscreen and physical sunscreen.
Physical Sunscreen – When you see Titanium Dioxide or Zinc Oxide in the ingredients list, that means the sunscreen is a physical sunscreen. These minerals when sitting on the skin, reflect solar radiation back to the environment. They are likely to cause less irritation.
Chemical Sunscreen – Made with chemicals, which are absorbed, protecting the skin against sun damage.
It’s very relevant to mention that the minimum SPF (Solar Protection Factor), especially for the face, is SPF 30.
And speaking of Sunscreen, what about a sunscreen that is a combination of sunblock, makeup primer, and on top of it, made with actives loaded with rejuvenating, and firming properties?
How’s is that even possible?
The X3 Primer Moisturizing SPF 40 is a Medical-Grade mineral sunscreen, using 99.9% purity levels, it’s quickly absorbed by the skin, for immediately smooth and firm skin. Not sticky or greasy. Thanks to transparent Zinc Oxide in its formula.
