With the summer comes the beach, backyard BBQs, pool time which means increased risk to UV exposure. What you may not know however, is that the hours you spend working on a sun-kissed glow can result in skin aging in its most common forms: Hiperpigmentasyon, İnce çizgiler ve kırışıklıklar. Melanin pigments, which make up sun and age spots, are derivatives of the amino acid Tyrosine. An increased production of melanin in the skin is called melanogenesis and is stimulated by DNA damage to the skin induced by UV radiation. So although you may not see the effects after leaving the beach, your skin is fast at work producing melanin.
Yapmak: Recommend Sun Protection
If you enjoy being outdoors, you need to take extra precautions to protect your skin, such as wearing protective clothing, hats, and sunglasses and always using a good Güneş kremi. Sunscreens are an absolute must for helping protect your skin from skin cancer and helping prevent the appearance of wrinkles, but some sunscreens can sometimes be harmful to your complexion. Recommend sunscreens that are mineral and anti-oxidant rich and beware of sunscreens that include: fragrance as it may be a photosensitizer, Isopropyl Myristate as it may be comedogenic, or PABAs which are known skin irritants. I also like to recommend adding a daily deep pore cleansing mask, such as our Repêchage® Hydra Medic® Sea Mud Perfecting Mask, to the summer regime to help offset any clogged pores from increased Güneş kremi kullanmak.
It’s also important to remember that Güneş kremi is not a “one and done” application. İçin Güneş kremi to be effective it needs to be reapplied throughout the day. SPF measures the length of time a product protects the skin, so if your client normally starts to turn pink in 10 minutes of sun exposure, with an SPF 15 it will take 15 times as long (2.5 Saat). It is best to reapply SPF 30 Güneş kremi at least every hour and before and after taking a dip in the water.
Don’t: Ignore Discoloration
Early signs of skin cancer can be detected by a professional. Irregular mark or mole can be a sign of skin cancer. Have it checked out. It is better to be safe than sorry.
Most people know to wear sun protection when they are at the beach or doing outdoor activities, but few incorporate it into their daily routine. The problem is, incidental sun exposure can be just as damaging, leading to hyperpigmentation and even skin cancer. As I mentioned before, encourage clients to use sun protection, and for those who experience hyperpigmentation and uneven skin tone, help get them on track by recommending skin brightening products that can help reduce the appearance of uneven tones, dark spots and hyperpigmentation that come from sun exposure.

Don’t: Over Do It
While a chemical peel can be beneficial to help resurface and renew the appearance of your client’s skin, if you over exfoliate you could cause your client’s skin more harm than help. If you finish a chemical peel and your clients can’t leave the spa without a bag over their head, the product you are using is too harsh for the skin’s delicate structure. The skin has many functions including protection – you need layers of skin for it to do its job!
