Summer Skincare Essentials: Tips for Keeping Acne at Bay

With the summer season just around the corner, the weather is warm, and the days are long – filled with outdoor activities, festivals, weddings, and more! But the heat and humidity during this season can bring on sweating and increase oil production, causing the skin to be more prone to clogged pores and breakouts. But with the right skincare routine and ingredients, you can keep your skin looking its best for any occasion.

Dr Katie Beleznay, Vancouver-based dermatologist and skin care expert, says “Using the right ingredients can help manage your breakouts Exfoliating ingredients like alpha hydroxy acids can help with clogged pores and are worth considering in either a cleanser or leave on product. To help target dark spots that may appear after a breakout, niacinamide can be a beneficial ingredient and is generally gentle enough to use every day.”

“Using a combination of acne products can dry out your skin, so keeping it moisturized is important. Panthenol (pro-vitamin B5) can help restore and maintain the skin’s moisture barrier for healthy-looking skin. Most importantly, daily sun protection is essential to prevent UV-related damage, especially when using acne treating products that can increase skin sensitivity.” Dr. Beleznay
