SERUMS for summer flawless face

Midsummer flawless face: While we’re trying to keep our skincare routine at a minimum during hot months, here’s one step to help flaunt your summer healthy glow.  Though the typical cleanse, tone, and moisturize routine is pretty obvious, using serum can step up your fabulous face game quickly.

From smoothing the texture to major SPF coverage to covering up a few flaws and red spots, here’s a lightweight solution that will add less than a minute to your skincare routine – or replace the moisturizer in the heat.

Editor’s picks: Serums have higher concentration of active ingredients that can penetrate deep into the skin effectively and quickly.  They also come in a variety of formulas with different targets and benefits including covering up irritated and red spots midsummer.  Here are 4 tried and true favorites:

Sun protection + correct dark spots:

Exposure to the sun is one of the main causes of the appearance of dark spots, to prevent them from getting worse, protection is a daily must! Clarins Mission Perfection Serum has SPF 50 and targets hyperpigmentation, dull complexion and redness, without altering natural skin tone.  It promotes luminous and youthful-looking skin by correcting existing spots and preventing new ones from appearing plus adds protection.  What’s great about it is universal and can work on women of all ages and skin types.

For a more affordable + super effective option that can be found in better drugstores, try out Anthelios Aox Daily Antioxidant Serum by La Roche-Posay.  Known for their products that are great for sensitive skin, this serum offers SPF 50 sun protection, plus the lightweight texture is perfect in the midsummer heat.  It contains antioxidants and Vitamin E to shield the face against free radicals from UV rays and helps get rid of dark spots, fine lines and skin texture. A FashionDailyMag favorite!

Calm sensitivity + redness:

While trying for that gorgeous glowy tan, sometimes by staying on the beach we can end up with disastrous sunburn.  Even if you didn’t get a burn, your skin is more prone to be extra sensitive because of sun exposure + all the heat. Try Repechage Hydra 4 Red Out Serum. It soothes inflammation while reducing redness and nourishing the skin. The lightweight serum has powerful antioxidants and anti-inflammatories such as Quercetin and Rutin to help calm hypersensitive skin and works even on rosacea. This product not only balances skin + replenishes moisture, it also defends the skin by destroying unwanted bacteria!

Firm skin + disguise big pores:

During this hot, humid time of the year, our pores look larger than usual. Chances are it’s due to the oil production of our face and dehydration is often the reason.  Racinne Youth Power Serum helps renew and hydrate with sodium hyaluronic which enables the skin to hold more moisture while Korean ginseng stem cells are added to boost circulation for the skin to improve faster.  This anti-aging product also firms fine lines, reduces the appearance of enlarged pores and brightens the skin!  Be sure to add SPF in your skincare or makeup routine in the summer!
