Our skin responds to what’s happening around it right now. While most people think about switching up their skincare routine when fall officially arrives, your skin shows some signals in late July and August, so you’d better respond promptly.
If you’re dealing with sticky, humid air in your city, your skin’s needs are completely different from someone facing the dry heat somewhere else. That’s why beU created this guide to make a climate-conscious transition, no matter where you are.
Why Late Summer Demands a Different Strategy
- UV damage accumulation is peaking. After months of sun exposure, your skin is carrying the cumulative effects of summer, even when wearing sunscreen. Those tiny changes in texture, tone, and hydration levels are your skin’s signs it is time to make adjustments.
- Humidity patterns are shifting. Summer brings changes in both humid and dry climates. Humid regions might see sudden dry spells, while arid areas often experience unexpected moisture from late-season storms.
- Your skin is working overtime. Late summer is when your skin is most responsive to gentle and consistent care that supports its natural recovery processes.
Humid Climate: When Your Skin Can’t Breathe
If you live in an area where the air feels thick, you already know the struggle. Your skin produces more oil to combat humidity, but paradoxically, it can dehydrate beneath all that surface moisture.
Your approach here is to layer cleansing without over-cleansing. Start your morning routine with the beU Manuka Cream Cleanser. Apply it to your skin and massage gently. Then rinse with lukewarm water. The Manuka honey in this cleanser is naturally antibacterial and helps regulate moisture without stripping your skin from its protective oils.
Follow this in the evening with the beU Retinol Anti Aging Moisturizer and apply it to slightly damp skin. The retinol (a pure form of Vitamin A) works to boost your skin’s natural collagen production, while the formula’s lightweight texture won’t feel heavy in humid conditions. Retinol also helps smooth your skin’s texture and reduce the appearance of the fine lines that summer sun might have emphasized, making it perfect for addressing accumulated UV damage.
Dry Climate: When Everything Feels Like Sandpaper
Dry heat can be sneaky. Your skin might not feel oily, but it’s struggling to retain moisture, leading to that tight, uncomfortable feeling. The air pulls moisture from your skin, and late summer sun can be particularly harsh in arid climates.
Our suggested strategy? Moisture layering.
Start with the beU Manuka Cream Cleanser once daily, preferably in the evening. In dry climates, over-cleansing can cause more problems.
Then end the routine with the Retinol Anti Aging Moisturizer to bring that supportive hydration your skin is craving.
Remember that the goal isn’t perfect skin by September! It’s resilient skin that can handle the seasonal changes with grace. Your skin has been protecting you all summer long, so it’s time to work smart with it, creating a foundation that will keep you glowing the rest of the year.
