When it comes to sun protection, sunscreen is a crucial step in safeguarding our skin from harmful UV rays. However, there are also ways to support the beauty of your skin before and after sun exposure. In this article, we offer you advice to implement, especially during the summer. Of course, these tips do not replace the use of effective sunscreen or a hat. It is also essential to avoid prolonged exposure, especially during the hottest hours of the day.

1. Support Your Skin Through Nutrition:

A diet rich in antioxidants is essential to protect the skin from free radicals generated by UV exposure. Antioxidants help neutralize these free radicals and reduce oxidative damage that can lead to premature skin aging and other skin issues.

Incorporate foods rich in vitamin C, such as citrus fruits, berries, and leafy green vegetables, as well as foods high in vitamin E, like nuts, seeds, and avocados, into your daily diet. Carotenoids found in orange and yellow vegetables, such as carrots and sweet potatoes, are also beneficial for enhancing skin protection against UV rays.

2. Hydration Inside and Out:

Hydration is crucial to maintain skin health, especially during periods of sun exposure. Make sure to drink enough water throughout the day to keep your skin well-hydrated from the inside.

To complement internal hydration, use high-quality plant oils. They help maintain the skin's barrier, reducing moisture loss and protecting the skin from external aggressors. We recommend using organic nourishing calendula oil or organic regenerating wild carrot oil to target the most delicate areas, such as the décolletage.

3. Gentle Body Scrub:

Body scrub can be beneficial for removing dead skin cells and promoting healthy cell renewal. However, it is essential to choose a gentle scrub suitable for your skin type. Excessive scrubbing can lead to skin irritation and increased sensitivity to the sun. Our products are designed with this philosophy in mind and accompany you: the facial scrub and body scrub.

Conclusion:

At Beauty Garden, we recommend a holistic approach to maintaining skin health and enhancing sun protection. In addition to using effective sunscreen, adopting a diet rich in antioxidants, hydrating the skin with plant oils, and practicing gentle body scrubbing are ideal practices to prepare your skin for the sun naturally. And, of course, don't forget to take extra precautions by avoiding excessive sun exposure during the hottest hours of the day and using protective clothing whenever possible.
