Summer Skin – Don’t Let The Sun Dry You Out

Summer skin care is essential for both men and women. Our Las Vegas summers can not only age your skin, but you also should be cautious of the UV ultra violet rays. Skin cancer is very prevalent in Nevada.
Both men and women should consider doing more for their skin in Las Vegas. Fight the signs of aging by using a moisturizing cream nightly on your face, neck and throat. After cleansing your face thoroughly, while it is still damp, apply a moisturizing creme. Your face will look radiant and stay soft through the summer’s heat.
Summer skin care for both men and women should also include an occasional revitalizing facial. It will make your skin come alive and stay young. Get a facial that fits your skin type, exfoliate and get a treatment mask regularly.
For the body, use products that are free of alcohol, artificial colors, and salt which can be very drying.
There are many products out there that can keep your skin protected despite the dry desert heat.
I particularly like Iden Body wash. It contains bee propolis, chitosan, and apricot kernel oil. Bee propolis is made by honey bees to protect their hive and honey. It is a natural antibiotic, antioxidant, and antibacterial, and contains Vitamins A, E, and B complex.  Chitosan is a bio-marine product found in the ocean, which is very healing and soothes irritated skin. My clients attest to this product, and have told me that it has helped heal their eczema, psoriasis and very dry skin. It boosts the moisture in your skin and leaves it soft.
Iden body lotion is another great choice to provide moisture and protection from the drying effects of the sun.  It revitalizes dull, dry skin and keeps it soft all day long.  Does your lotion work all day long, keeping your skin soft and moisturized?  Iden keeps skin soft all day long.  This product contains bee propolis, chitosan, olive, and copaiba extract.
If we just stay conscious about keeping our skin moisturized all summer, we can stay young and beautiful while enjoying the summer’s heat. Whatever product you choose, the idea is to tap into natural beauty products that are good for our bodies, effective, and not harmful to the world we live in.
