Summers can’t be possibly spent indoors as a rise in temperature automatically means more time spent in the sun. Summer fun and frolic is incomplete without swimming, hiking, picnics, nature walks and outdoor fitness activities. Of course, the most popular season of the year does have its share of problems – sunburn, dehydration, allergies and irritation. But with a little bit of precaution and care, you can easily enjoy your spot in the sun, completely worry-free!

Free radical damage from Sun Exposure

We all know what a full day in the sun means – visible skin damage – dark patches, dehydrated texture and you might even have kickstarted the premature cycle of ageing.

So now that the damage has been done, what can we do to arrest it?

Free radicals are atoms that can damage the cells in your body leading to illness and ageing. But every problem has a solution, doesn’t it?

Stock up on Anti-Oxidants: Anti-Oxidants help protect your skin from free radical damage that can cause visible wear and tear and significantly deteriorate the quality of your skin. Vitamin C and E are powerful Anti-Oxidants that are incredibly efficient in guarding your skin from UV ray damage. Shop from our Vitamin C Range: Prism Vitamin C Glow Cream and Blaze Vitamin C Glow Serum which contain the Gold Standard of Vitamin C: THD Ascorbate, Vitamin E and powerful Anti-Oxidants from Superfruits such as Kakadu Plum, Kiwi and Sea Buckthorn berries.

Excessively Oily Skin

The intensely hot weather, constant sweating and UV ray exposure also boil down to an unwanted greasy shine on your face. Now who doesn’t love a smooth, even-toned, oil-free mattified complexion all day long – We do !!

But when you overdo the harsh sulphate-based cleansers chemical filled makeup removers and mattifying sprays, your skin is left dry, dehydrated and irritable.

Switch over to a PH-balanced moisturizing cream-based face wash like our Green Juice Brightening Face Cleanse which is intensely hydrating, and moisturizing and is packed with nourishing Avocado, sebum-balancing Hemp, cleansing Parsley and purifying Matcha. This face wash hydrates mattifies and enriches your skin with multiple vitamins, minerals and fatty acids in one wash!

Heat Rashes

Bare shoulders, poolside lounging, afternoon picnics – that’s what summers are made of. The cons these exciting occasions bring along with them include sunburn, irritation and heat rashes.

When your skin’s sweat glands get blocked and the sweat cannot rise to the skin’s surface to escape via evaporation, your skin begins to erupt.

Annoyingly red and itchy – the best way to get rid of heat rashes is to apply a cooling gel mask with anti-inflammatory ingredients that calm, hydrate and soothe your skin. Try our Drench Hydrating Jelly Mask which contains intensely hydrating Cucumber, soothing Aloe Vera, PH-balancing Rose Water and a unique blend of Chlorophyll and Spirulina which revitalize and rejuvenate your skin completely.

Eczema

Excessive perspiration and an increase in surrounding temperature can cause your skin to become increasingly itchy, red, dry and scaly. Termed as eczema, this condition rears its ugly head, especially in summers when your skin becomes sensitive to heat.

To repair eczema, you need a moisturizer packed with Omega fatty acids which will repair, replenish, rehydrate and re-texturize your skin. Choose our Prism Vitamin C Glow Cream which is filled with Omega-rich ingredients such as Evening Primrose, Rosehip, Sea Buckthorn and rich butter like Shea and Cocoa.
