Don’t Use This In the Summer Heat

Summer Sunlight Is Here… Should You Drop Your Moisturizer?

Gorgeous hot sunny weather is on the way… and that means more days filled with shorts, time at the beach and makeup free days!

In the winter, most of us rely on a heavy or more intense moisture cream to keep hydrated and free of flaky skin.

But… once the weather warms up, you want to avoid them. Heavier creams are just going to make your already sweaty skin oily and greasy.

Is it time to ditch the moisturizer completely?

Nope! Most dermatologists and skin care experts say ditching your hydration routine will actually make problems worse. The secret? Use a lightweight formula like Moisture Activ™ Gel-Crème.

The lighter moisturizer works especially well in humid environments because it’s not creamy or oily. It absorbs very well and leaves your skin feeling hydrated and refreshed.

My skin’s super oily, does that matter?

Some Dermatologists have suggested that those with oily skin may want to avoid moisturizer, but that could cause your body’s own oil glands to become more active.

The right moisturizer actually helps control shiny skin, heat-triggered rosacea and control uneven pigmentation. All of these get a little more troublesome with the extra outdoor time and UV exposure.
