Why Summer Skin Needs Extra Hydration to Stay Healthy ☀️
Share
Sun Exposure
Even with SPF, UV rays can damage your skin’s barrier, making it harder to retain moisture and increasing the risk of premature aging.
Sweat & Heat
Sweating helps cool the body, but it also draws water away from your skin—especially in humid or high-temperature environments.
Air Conditioning
That refreshing indoor chill? It often comes at the cost of moisture. A/C systems pull water out of the air, leaving your skin feeling dry and tight.
Chlorine & Salt Water
Pool days and beach trips are fun—but both chlorine and salt water strip your skin of its natural oils, making it harder to stay hydrated.
💧 How to Keep Your Skin Hydrated This Summer
Hydration isn’t just about drinking water (although that’s part of it!). It’s about locking in moisture and protecting your skin barrier. Here’s how to do both:
1. Use a Rich, Whipped Body Butter
Light lotions don’t always cut it in the summer heat. Our handcrafted Whipped Body Butters are packed with shea butter, kokum butter, and grapeseed oil to deeply nourish and soften sun-kissed skin—without leaving a greasy residue.
✨ Top picks for summer:
[Spa Body Butter] – clean and refreshing
[Dream Body Butter] – floral, calming, and light
2. Exfoliate Weekly to Remove Dead Skin
Exfoliation helps your moisturizer absorb better. Use a gentle sugar scrub once or twice a week to remove buildup and boost glow.
🌿 Try our [Sugar Plum Sugar Scrub]—it buffs, softens, and smells like a summer treat.
3. Moisturize Right After Showering
Apply your body butter immediately after your shower, while your skin is still slightly damp. This locks in water and keeps your skin hydrated longer.
4. Hydrate from the Inside Out
Topical products help—but internal hydration matters too. Drink plenty of water and eat water-rich fruits and veggies like cucumbers, watermelon, and berries to support your skin from within.
✨ Give Your Skin the Summer Glow It Deserves
Summer doesn’t have to mean dry, irritated skin. With a few simple swaps in your routine—and nourishing, handcrafted products from Horizcents—you can keep your skin soft, healthy, and glowing all season long.
