Your Essential Guide to Summer Skin Care for 2014

Summer Skin Care

The winter snow and cold weather has finally faded away, but now arises new concerns, which at Nefertari means a focus on summer skin care. Most people already understand the basics, i.e. the importance of applying SPF for skin cancer prevention, whether or not they’re devout about it. However, there’s a lot more to making sure your skin stays gorgeous when the blaring UV rays increase on the face of the Earth.

Is This Year’s Harsh Winter an Indicator of the Summer Weather to Come?

Many experts are saying yes. The major change in weather winter patterns witnessed in the U.S this year has some predicting that the summer of 2014 is destined to be one to remember.

Each country has its own UV index and this can be used to predict how long a person can be outside without skin protection before sun burn and other damage begins to set in. However, this shouldn’t be taken as an excuse to risk it. Always take the necessary steps to protect your skin from the sun.

According to Oklahoma State University, the UV index and skin damage relationship is as follows:

It’s very important to remember that your skin needs sun protection even when you’re indoors. Visible sunlight isn’t an indicator of the UV rays that are around you. The fact is that UV rays can even affect those who spend the majority of their time inside a building. There are two different types of UV rays – UVA and UVB. Although UVB rays are the ones most commonly responsible for skin cancer, UVA rays can also cause skin cancer, and unlike UVB, UVA can go through windows and speed up skin aging.

It’s true that ultraviolet rays are present on the Earth year round, even in winter, but with summer comes more radiation. The summertime risks for skin damage are compounded by the fact that people tend to expose larger areas of their skin when the weather’s hot, wearing shorts, sandals, tank tops, swimwear, shorter hair styles, tops that are off the shoulder, backless, or strapless. It puts them at an even greater risk for skin cancer, age spots, wrinkles, fine lines, discolorations and all the other effects of sun on skin.

This issue is of such great importance and affects such a wide portion of the population, actually just about all of mankind, that even the computer company Apple is releasing a new wearable technology to help people monitor their exposure to UV rays. The new Apple iWatch happens to be the brand’s first wearable tech device and it will alert people when to reapply sunblock, as well as performing vital medical functions, such as monitoring their blood oxygen and possibly glucose levels. Unfortunately, experts project that the Apple iWatch release date won’t be until September of 2014. Which means people will just have to wing it for this summer.

How to Have a Summer Skin Care Routine that Works

With or without fancy techy gadgets, it’s vital to your youthfulness, vitality, and overall health that you know specifically how to take care of your skin in the summertime. Applying SPF is only the basics, and you have to be diligent about it. Not only does sunblock need to be applied more often than one time a day, but it also needs to be applied even to skin that’s covered in clothing. This means a full body treatment a few times a day. What a great way to reduce stress!

At Nefertari, we’re proud to announce that Sothys, one of the skincare brands we trust the most, has addressed the needs of those who’re concerned about caring for their skin in the summer. They’re released a new line of skin care products made specifically for summer skin care. Using their new product line brings you an instant and effective skin care routine.

Here’s What’s Included in the New Line of Skin Care Products:

Sothys Protective Lotion Face Body SPF 30

No longer is it necessary to tote around two different bottles of SPF lotion; one for your face, and the other for your body. Now Sothys has rolled both of these products into one. This brand new SPF 30 protective lotion from Sothys pampers and moisturizes your skin, keeping it safe from harmful UV rays without being greasy.

Sothys After Sun Body Lotion

Did you know that it’s also important to care for your skin, not only before and during the time that it’s exposed to the sun, but also after as well? After a long day of summer fun, or work, give your skin the care it needs with this excellent new after-sun lotion from Sothys. It has a wonderfully delicate aroma and it provides your skin with the nourishment it needs.

Sothys After Sun Anti-Aging Treatment

Those who’re ever busy and always find themselves having to multitask can have a real appreciation for this wonderful skin treatment from Sothys. Not only does it help nourish the skin after sun exposure, but it’s also an anti-aging treatment. Moreover, this treatment can be used as both a mask and a night cream. It brings the skin immediate comfort and is a great way to relax at the end of the day.

Sothys Face Body Self-Tanning Gel

Those who want the glowing appearance of being delicately kissed by the sun without having to actually risk overexposure to the sun through sunbathing, or risk the negative side effects of tanning beds, can find this great self-tanning gel by Sothys to be just what they’ve been waiting for. It can be applied to the face as well as the body and it creates a wonderful, natural-looking tan.

The Sothys brand has done a lovely job in covering summer skin care through their new line of products, but this line doesn’t cover the important essentials that are vital all year round, such as proper cleansing and exfoliating.

The truth is that each skin type and every person has different needs when it comes to proper skin care. For this reason, we strongly recommend that you have a Nefertari Skin Care Consultation. It can help identify and address the specific needs of your particular skin, creating a skincare regime that fits right in with your personality and lifestyle.

Take good care of your skin and you’ll remain gorgeous through a lifetime of summers.
