Midwest summers bring some of the most exciting moments of the year. From tending garden to weekends by the pool to spending a day at the ballpark, there is so much to look forward to.

But amidst the joys of summer, there’s a vital component we often overlook: skincare. The warmer months bring not only the promise of fun-filled days, but also heightened sun exposure, leaving our skin vulnerable to irritation, dehydration and dullness.

Here, we share a few tips for creating the right skincare routines that will protect and maintain radiant skin all summer long:

1.Wear SPF. It’s the No. 1 way to prevent signs of aging. While aging is beautiful, when we steward our skin well, we are able to age more gracefully. A broad-spectrum SPF with sun protection of 30+ is your best option for age management and preventing skin damage. Remember that all sunscreen is not created equally; formulation and cosmetic elegance matters. The licensed estheticians at Fifty-Seven Third Beauty Suite Collective offer free skin consultations and can discuss which sunscreen is best for you based on your skin type and needs.

2. Stay fresh. Sweating is natural and even has some benefits; however, it can also have negative effects on our skin. Electrolytes, pheromones and bacteria found in sweat can irritate and clog the follicle, leading to exacerbation of certain skin conditions such as rosacea and acne. Our Hydrinity Hyacyn Active Mist is a must-have and should go everywhere you go this summer. As safe as water but as strong as bleach, this purifying facial and skin mist contains hypochlorous acid, a potent anti-microbial and anti-inflammatory.

3. Use self-tanner or spray tans. While not a UV blocker, these are the most natural and safest way to achieve that summer glow.

4. Stick to your skin routine. With all of the excitement of summer events, streamlining your skincare routine is essential. You don’t need a 10-step routine or a ton of different products to keep your skin glowing and healthy. Skincare management systems target multiple skin concerns from pigmentation to fine lines and wrinkles, acne and more, while keeping things simple and refreshing.
