High temperatures, intense sun exposure and increased sweating present special challenges for the skin in summer. Many people notice oilier skin, clogged pores or dry, irritated areas during the warm season. With the right skincare, however, the skin can be optimally supported and protected from summer stressors.

At JUVENIS in Vienna, we provide individual advice on how to keep your skin healthy, well-cared-for and radiant in summer.

Why does the skin change in hot weather?

Rising temperatures stimulate sweat and sebum production. At the same time, the skin loses more moisture and is exposed to increased UV radiation.

Possible consequences include:

  • shiny or oily skin
  • clogged pores
  • pimples and blemishes
  • dryness
  • Pigmented spots
  • sunburn
  • premature skin aging

A tailored skincare routine helps keep the skin balanced.

Tip 1: Cleanse the skin gently

Sweat, sebum and sunscreen can accumulate on the skin during the day.

Therefore it is recommended:

  • mild facial cleansing morning and evening
  • lukewarm water instead of hot water
  • gentle cleansing products without aggressive ingredients

Cleansing too often can weaken the skin barrier and further irritate the skin.

Tip 2: Moisture instead of heavy creams

Even if the skin often appears oilier in summer, it still needs sufficient moisture. Light, non-greasy care products with moisturizing ingredients are particularly suitable.

Suitable active ingredients include:

  • Hyaluronic acid
  • Glycerin
  • Panthenol

Tip 3: Use sunscreen daily

The most important step of any summer skincare routine is consistent UV protection.

Recommended:

  • daily sunscreen with an appropriate SPF
  • protection against UVA and UVB rays
  • regular reapplication during prolonged outdoor exposure

Sunscreen protects not only against sunburn, but also against photoaging and pigmentation spots.

Tip 4: Drink plenty of water

Adequate fluid intake supports the whole body – including the skin. Especially on hot days, you should make sure to drink enough water.

Tip 5: Use lightweight skincare

In summer, lightweight textures are often more comfortable than rich creams. Depending on skin type, fluids or gel-creams can be useful, as they care for the skin without weighing it down unnecessarily.

Tip 6: Soothe the skin after sun exposure

After prolonged sun exposure, the skin benefits from soothing care. Products with moisturizing or cooling ingredients can help regenerate the skin.

When is dermatological consultation advisable?

If issues persist despite adapted skincare, the cause should be assessed by a dermatologist.

This is especially true for:

  • severe pigmentation spots
  • persistent skin irritations
  • acne or blemishes
  • Rosacea
  • unusual skin changes
