Why Your Skin Looks Dull After Summer
Summer can leave your skin looking glowing — but after months of sunshine, heat and time outdoors, it’s common for that glow to disappear.
If your skin is looking dull, dry, uneven or tired, there are a few reasons why.
1. Sun Exposure
Even with SPF, spending more time outdoors can leave your skin feeling dry and looking uneven. UV exposure can also contribute to visible pigmentation and premature signs of ageing.
2. Dehydration
Heat, air conditioning, swimming and increased sun exposure can all contribute to dehydrated skin. Dehydrated skin often looks less plump and radiant.
3. Build-Up on the Skin
Sweat, sunscreen, makeup and increased oil production can contribute to a build-up of dead skin cells, leaving your complexion looking less fresh and luminous.
4. Your Skincare Routine May Need a Reset
As the seasons change, your skin's needs can change too. Products and routines that worked perfectly during summer may not be the best fit as we move into cooler weather.
