How to properly moisturise your skin in summer
With the arrival of sunny days, we all dream of a radiant complexion, fresh skin, and a natural glow. But summer can also be a challenging season for the skin — it becomes more fragile and dehydrated faster than we realize.
When the sun comes out, we all dream of a radiant complexion and fresh, naturally glowing skin. But summer can be a challenging season for the epidermis: UV rays, high temperatures, perspiration, salt water and air conditioning all weaken the skin and accelerate dehydration.
The result: skin feels tighter, more sensitive, less supple, loses its radiance and may even develop blemishes. Moisturising your skin in summer is therefore essential to keep it comfortable, radiant and healthy.
Here is a complete and easy-to-follow guide to help you understand how to properly moisturise your skin in summer, with the right skincare routine, the right products and simple habits to adopt daily.
Understanding Summer Skin Dehydration: Why Skin Suffers in Hot Weather
Before building a skincare routine, it is important to understand what your skin goes through during the summer months:
- UV rays weaken the skin barrier and reduce its ability to retain water.
- Perspiration removes part of the protective hydrolipidic film.
- Salt water dries out and irritates the epidermis.
- Air conditioning reduces ambient humidity, drying out the skin.

Cleansing is essential in summer to remove sweat, sebum, sun filters and pollution, but it must be done gently to preserve the skin’s natural balance.
