Summer is here! And we are all ready to hit the beach, relax and spend lazy days lounging by the pool here in beautiful Sarasota. While these are all great pastimes during the warmer months, the sun can wreak havoc on your skin if you’re not properly protected. At Colibri Day Spa, we specialize in high level skin care that will help keep your skin radiant and glowing. Here are some fabulous tips to make sure your skin survives another warm summer season.

As you know, the sun will most definitely dry out your skin – even if you spend a lot of time sweating. In the summer, your skin can also become a lot more oily than normal. To address these issues, try to keep your skin clean and moisturized all throughout the day, and oil-free as much as possible.

One of the best ways to care for your skin is to make sure you are staying hydrated. Drinking plenty of water will keep your skin plump and firm from the inside out. But you also need to care for your skin from the outside as well. Investing in a great moisturizer can produce incredible results. When you visit Colibri Spa, feel free to sample the many different moisturizers we have available. Consider a purchase from our Dermalogica product line. Invest in your skin. You are so worth it!

Of course, sunscreen is your best friend during the summer. Make sure to apply good sunscreen every day. This is even more important when you are in the sun for long periods of time. Sunscreen will protect your skin from sunburn and subsequent peeling, as well as reduce the possibility of skin cancer. Cover your entire face with sunscreen – and don’t forget other exposed areas like the back of your neck and your ears. Reapply sunscreen throughout the day, and especially if you’re spending time at or near the beach or the pool.

Although we all love being outdoors in the summer, it is especially important to limit your daily exposure to the sun. Protect yourself with large hats and sunglasses. Blocking UV rays will keep your skin healthy and prevent the sun from causing damage.

And don’t forget to cleanse your skin often. Extra product and sweat can lead to oil buildup, causing blackheads and pimples. Avoid over washing and use a light cleanser twice daily. You don’t want to strip your skin of natural oils in the process as this can lead to even more issues. During your next spa visit, talk with one of our friendly and professional team members.
