National Cleanse Your Skin Week


During the summer season, you might need to take care of your skin frequently due to perspiration, acne, and itchy skin. But using the wrong products for your skin during the summer might make your skin more sensitive. Yet, you can begin a skincare routine in the first week of August. The first week of August is National Cleanse Your Skin Week. National Cleanse Your Skin Week is from August 1st through August 7th which is a week to be conscious about your skin care routine. 


Depending on how much time you have for taking care of your skin, make sure you use the right skincare products to avoid skin allergies. Read the ingredients of your skincare products. Avoid products with alcohol, fragrance, parabens, and with a rough grainy texture especially with exfoliating products. Use a mild cleanser that can remove dirt and makeup while it can hydrate your skin. Wear sunscreen without fragrance if you have sensitive skin.


Avoid touching your face and keep your hair away from your skin if you are prone to getting acne in the summer. Use fewer skin products in the summer by creating a simple morning routine to cleanse your face. Go make-up free to help your skin to breathe and to reduce your acne. After washing your face with a gentle cleanser, you can use aloe vera to relieve your itchy dry skin. Then, you can make a face mask using ingredients at home and apply it to your face at night.


Make a schedule to clean your face in the morning and at night. Review your skin care products and check expiration dates. Lotion can last for twelve to twenty-four months depending on its ingredients. If the lotion has fragrance and the fragrance changes after a year, it is best to toss it. Oil products for the skin can last for one year.


Skin serums can last up to eight months. Make sure you store your skin care products in a ventilated room and away from heat. Use a small caddy with compartments to organize your morning and night skincare products. Do not share your skin care products with other people in your household to avoid skin infections and bacteria. Wash your make-up brushes and applicators with baby shampoo or mild soap.


Wash your face in the morning and at night while covering your hair with a towel or shower cap. But take care of your skin more at night during the summer season especially if you want to moisturize your dry or sensitive skin. Do a milk bath at night for your face and your entire body. Be gentle when using skin products for exfoliation. Avoid applying too much body oil at night because it will raise your body temperature making you feel warmer during the summer months.

Instead, apply body lotion at night to help you feel cool before going to sleep. Do not forget to use sunscreen and lip balm before going out during the day. Use skin products with antioxidants to reduce inflammation and moisturize your skin. If you have oily skin, use skin products without oils to cleanse your skin. Here are resources with more tips for cleansing your skin during the summer.
