I rarely wear makeup beyond using a lip balm or a good lash curler, so I always try to have nice, even skin and a juicy, healthy-looking appearance. However, I have learned that this effect doesn’t appear overnight. It requires consistency (and patience). Much more in summer, when the sun or air conditioning test the skin barrier.
During the hot months my routine changes quite a bit. I swap heavy textures for lighter formulas that do not compromise hydration. Keep in mind that our skin loses water more easily and needs cosmetics that help keep it comfortable, reinforce its barrier function, and provide luminosity without leaving a greasy feel.
According to experts, the best allies that soothe, help restore that fresh finish, and deliver a beautiful result are ingredients such as hyaluronic acid, glycerin, ceramides, niacinamide, or antioxidants. And after trying countless products, I have come to the conclusion that the only things you need are those that respond to your skin’s needs and that hydrate, repair, and promote the less-is-more approach that works best during this season.
Six cosmetics for juicy skin in summer
Tatcha The Milky Sunscreen SPF50+.
Tatcha The Milky Sunscreen SPF50+. Getting juicy skin in summer starts with a good sunscreen like this. Its lightweight, milky texture absorbs quickly and leaves a luminous and very natural finish. It contains ectoine, encapsulated vitamin E, and Okinawa aloe vera to help keep the skin hydrated, calm redness, and reinforce the skin barrier. It’s one of my favorites.
Laneige Water Bank Aqua Facial.
Laneige Water Bank Aqua Facial. Its formula with AHA and BHA gently exfoliates to improve texture and boost radiance, while its hydrating complex helps to plump the skin and reinforce the skin barrier. It is a perfect serum for a glass skin effect.
Meisani Caffein-E Boost Eye Cream.
Meisani Caffein-E Boost Eye Cream combines caffeine, vitamin E and three types of hyaluronic acid to help decongest the under-eye area while delivering intense hydration rich in shea butter and botanical antioxidants.
Massada Cleansing Milk for Sensitive Skin.
Massada Cleansing Milk for Sensitive Skin. Brightness also depends on a good cleanse, especially in summer, when sunscreen, sweat, and pollution accumulate more easily. This cleansing milk removes impurities while respecting the skin barrier and avoiding the tight sensation that harsher cleansers can cause.
Flor de Mayo Sublime Makeup Remover.
Flor de Mayo Sublime Makeup Remover. It is one of the best in terms of value for money. Its gentle formula with chamomile helps to effectively remove makeup and sunscreen residues, leaving a comfortable, pleasant sensation of comfort.
Drunk Elephant Protini Polypeptide Cream.
Drunk Elephant Protini Polypeptide Cream. Finally, this cream provides intense hydration with a light texture that doesn’t feel heavy even in the hottest months. Its combination of nine peptides and lily extract improves elasticity, reinforces the skin barrier, and keeps the skin visibly firmer.
