Summer Skin Care For Oily Skin

My summer skincare routine has changed many times as I have gotten older. But I am excited to share my ride or die products that I am using currently! Your skin is definitely different in the summer. You should have a different skincare routine in the summer than you do in the winter. For me with moisture & humidity in the summer I notice my skin has more oil to it. So, I have to find products work good for my summer skin care for oily skin. I have to think about this as I pick out moisturizers and primers so I am not making my skin overly oily. My biggest thing with skincare and the summer is protection. When I was younger I did not care about sun protection. I have slowly noticed sun spots starting to form on my face. Due to this I no longer tan my face and I ALWAYS wear sunscreen everyday!

Summer Skin Care For Oily Skin Products

Drunk Elephant C-Firma Day Serum

My dark spots really like to come out during the summer. I have been searching and searching for a product that lightens these parts on my face. This vitamin C serum prevents and removes my dark spots making my skin brighter and more even. I apply this in the morning after I have washed and toned my face. Make sure you let it soak in for at least 3 minutes before you apply any other serum or moisturizer.

Drunk Elephant T.L.C. Framboos Glycolic Night Serum

The summer weather can get muggy, humid, and just overall not fun for your skin. The weather mixed with wearing foundation all day can cause clogged pores & acne. I need a serum that fights breakouts and prevents new ones. This is exactly that product. I apply this serum at night after I have cleansed and toned my face. For the first couple applications there is a slight tingle to your face. I like to think that is just the product doing its job. After the first applications, once your skin gets used to the product, the tingling fades. I have noticed a significant decrease in my hormonal acne with this product!

Olay Luminous Light Hydrating Face Lotion

My mom was the one who actually made me try this product. She is obsessed with all things Olay. I am actually pretty impressed with how well this product works. This is a very affordable product unlike the Drunk Elephant products. Like I said in the summer my face has a little more oil to it. I need to use lighter moisturizers, especially during the day. This light moisturizer lightens the skin making you have a  bright dewy looking complexion. I put this on after the C-Firma Day Serum or if I wear it at night I put it on after the Glycolic Night Serum.

Isle of Paradise Self-Tanning Drops

I have just started using this product and I wish I would have discovered it in the beginning of summer. This product is part of Sephora’s Clean Collection which I have been trying to switch all of my skincare and makeup products over to. They are so easy to use, I just add two drops into my Olay moisturizer and apply to my face. I like to use these at night to when I wake up the drops have set in and I have that summer time glow. They are perfect because the more tan I get the more drops I add and vice versa. No more pale face for me! Just a fore warning they do slightly change the color of your fingers. I would rather have a tan face and fingers than no tan at all.

Supergooop! Unseen Sunscreen SPF 40

This is an essential part of my summer skin care regimen. It is important to wear sunscreen every single day to prevent your face from the harsh UVA/UVB rays of the sun. I love this product because the SPF is high and it is oil-free. The formula is to die for it’s super light weight and it is colorless. You literally cannot see anything under your makeup. I put this on as my last step of my skin care routine right before I put on my makeup. At times I will just use this as my primer before my foundation. Supergoop outdid themselves with this product. I mean I don’t think I will ever wear another face sunscreen ever again.

As for my Cleanser and toner I have been using the same kinds for a while. I use them all year round. So for that reason I didn’t include them in my summer skin care essentials shown above. BUT I do wash my face every morning and night. Along with using a toner morning and night as well. After using my toner then I apply the products I mentioned above.

Now, that you have beautiful skin from the best summer skin care regimen, make sure you don’t forget about the makeup that goes on top! Check out my favorite eye shadow palettes to use to go over that that perfect skin!
