Summer is a time for fun and spending more time outdoors! It’s also a great time to focus on overall skin health and restoration. Longer hours of sunlight and hot, dry, or humid weather can affect our skin differently than the colder, darker days of other seasons. It is essential to protect your skin daily with high performance sunscreens to prevent today’s exposure from becoming tomorrow’s discolorations, fine lines, uneven tones, even skin cancers. But it’s also very important to repair the damage done in the days and years before.

When the temperature drops, dermatology visits for itchy and ashy skin have a tendency to go up! Lower humidity and indoor heat can draw the moisture out of our skin causing itchy rashes and dry skin. We know everyone loves a long hot shower when it’s cold out, but those steamy showers can take moisture away from our skin. Even the soaps we use can add to the problem. This time of year, many people enjoy going skiing or attending an outdoor Mardi Gras or sporting event. Unfortunately, outdoor exposure can also worsen dry skin.
