The summer months can be a difficult time for your skin. Not only can all of that extra sweat cause problems, but the increase in sebum production at this time of year makes it even more important to keep your summer skincare routine lightweight and non-greasy.
If you’ve been looking for a way to maintain a radiant glow without overloading your skin, keep reading as Introstem shares some sweat-proof summer skincare products that will leave your skin looking beautifully luminescent.
The PrismaStem Face Shield Cream SPF 30
There are a few different things that your skin needs in the summer. However, SPF is one of the most important. Yes, it’s necessary year-round, but UV rays intensify during the summer season. This makes it even more important to be diligent about sun protection.
While most people are aware of the damage that the sun can cause to the skin, many still choose to skip the sunscreen. Why? Research shows that the inconvenience of sunscreen is a big factor in this, while some also dislike the thick white cast that certain SPF products leave behind.
This is why we created the lightweight PrismaStem Face Shield Cream SPF 30. It melts into the skin quickly, leaving a dewy yet sheer finish. Since it doesn’t contain any heavy ingredients, you won’t have to worry about it congesting your skin. The best part? It’s not just a sunscreen – it’s also a hydrating moisturizer. With this multitasking formula, you’ll be able to combine two steps of your summer skincare routine into one. Keeping your skincare routine simple and minimal is essential during those hot and sweaty summer months, and this product makes that so much easier!
The VitisCell Brightening Vita-C Serum
You’re likely aware of how influential vitamin C is. Not only does it reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, but it also lightens the look of dark spots and brightens the complexion. It essentially counters several of the damaging effects of UV rays, making it a must in any summer skincare routine.
The best part is that when used alongside a sunscreen, vitamin C can leave the skin feeling even more protected from UV damage. The best way to maximize this is to apply a vitamin C serum, just like the Introstem VitisCell Brightening Vita-C Serum, underneath your sunscreen.
What makes this vitamin C serum so special? Firstly, it contains two forms of vitamin C: tetrahexyldecyl ascorbate and ascorbyl palmitate. Both are known for being highly stable. This is key in the summer months as some forms of vitamin C can degrade when exposed to sunlight. It’s also an incredibly hydrating formula. This is also vital during the summer because of how dehydrating the sun’s UV rays can be. Make this serum a part of your daily summer skincare routine, and you’ll love the glow that it gives to your skin!
The Collagen Cooling Set Limited Edition
Heat and inflammation go hand-in-hand with the summer months. Even just a small amount of sun exposure, combined with the higher temperatures, can aggravate your skin, leaving it looking red and irritated. This is why it’s so important to keep your skin feeling calm and cool throughout the warmer season, which is exactly what our Collagen Cooling Set has been designed to do.
This set contains four products. The first is the Collagen Plumping Mist, which is filled with ingredients that will hydrate and soothe your complexion. From niacinamide to sodium hyaluronate, some of skincare’s biggest names can be found in this formula. Mists are also a great product to use on hot summer days due to their lightweight nature.
Next up, the HydroCollagen Lift Mask. Again, it contains hydrating ingredients, peptides, and several antioxidants. The Advanced Soothing Cool Cream locks everything in, while the accompanying cooling globe provides the extra touch to keep your skin looking balanced and radiant.
The EmberCell Hydrating Cream
It can be difficult to find a moisturizer to use during the summer months, especially if you have oily skin. Many are tempted to skip the moisturizer altogether, but this is never advisable. Not only do moisturizers provide hydration, but they’re also essential for retaining moisture.
While it’s true that some moisturizers can make oily skin even oilier, this isn’t the case for all of them. The EmberCell Hydrating Cream from the Introstem EmberCell Collection, for example, is perfect for a summer skincare routine, even if you have extremely oily skin.
This lightweight moisturizer is packed with skin-loving antioxidants, from grape stem cells to rosemary leaf extract. It hydrates the skin with humectants, meaning that it won’t weigh your skin down. The icing on the cake is the inclusion of salicylic acid. This beta-hydroxy acid is usually used in exfoliating products because of how it delves into the pores to release any blockages. It’s included in this cream in a very small concentration, meaning that it won’t properly exfoliate your skin, but it will work to prevent the appearance of clogged pores.
The String Lift Sculpting System
As we mentioned earlier, hydration is crucial during the summer months. Yes, it matters year-round, but when your skin is faced with excess heat and sun exposure, the skin’s natural protective barrier takes a beating. This means that it’s no longer capable of retaining moisture in the way that it should.
To counter this, you need to give your skin plenty of extra hydration during the summer months, which is something that the String Lift Sculpting System excels at.
This two-step skincare system is designed to provide an intense moisture boost. You’re probably aware of how hyaluronic acid is famous for being one of the most hydrating ingredients around. Well, this duo contains six different forms of hyaluronic acid! Each one works on a different level of the skin, ensuring that your skin feels fully saturated with moisture. With the addition of several complexion-soothing ingredients, this is the perfect summer skincare system for skin that could do with a glow-up!
The AquaLift Anti-Aging Essence Solution
We often preach about the importance of wearing SPF, especially if you want to stave off the appearance of wrinkles. However, if you were negligent about sun protection in your youth, you’re likely now paying the price.
There are plenty of products out there that can address the visibility of aging. However, these usually take a while to produce results. If you were hoping to look crease-free in all of your summer vacation snaps, without resorting to heavy makeup that soon runs off with sweat, turn your attention to the Introstem AquaLift Anti-Aging Essence Solution. We created this product to provide a quick remedy to the appearance of wrinkles, with this high-performance solution smoothing away the appearance of creases in mere seconds.
Don’t believe us? Take a look at its ingredient list, and its potency will quickly become evident. From acetyl hexapeptide-8 to DMAE to sodium hyaluronate, it contains several ingredients that are known for their fast-acting effects. Since it has such a light texture that quickly disappears into the skin, it’s a great product to add to your summer skincare routine for when you need some instant gratification!
The VitisCell Exfoliating Scrub
People often experience an increase in clogged pores during the summer months. Why? Because not only does the skin produce more sebum in warm and humid conditions, but all of that extra sweat can also contribute to pore blockages.
This is why experts often recommend adding an extra exfoliation session to summer skincare routines. Not only will this help to prevent the appearance of clogged pores, but it will also allow the rest of your skincare products to properly penetrate your skin when applied. Rather than sitting on the outermost layer of your skin and washing off with sweat, those products will instead sink in and work their magic.
With that said, you need to be careful with your choice of summer exfoliator. Go with an overly aggressive formula and you’ll only end up leaving your skin more susceptible to sun damage. On the other hand, a gentler blend that still exfoliates efficiently, like the Introstem VitisCell Fresh Revive Peeling, would be ideal. With this formula also containing several powerful antioxidants, including vitamin C, vitamin E, and green tea extract, it will help to tackle some of the visible signs of sun damage while it exfoliates your skin.
The PrismaStem Collection
If you’re hoping to add a few sweat-proof summer skincare products to your routine this season, without having to shop around too much, check out the Introstem PrismaStem Collection. This collection consists of three products, each one perfect for a summer skincare routine.
The first is the PrismaStem Midnight Recovery Mask. It’s a leave-on mask that’s designed for evening use. This makes it a great way to help your skin recuperate from the heat stress it has faced all week. A number of superfood extracts provide an array of antioxidants while sodium hyaluronate, squalane, and peptides hydrate the skin.
Next, the PrismaStem Moisture Boost Serum. Again, it’s extremely hydrating but won’t leave your pores feeling clogged. The antioxidants in this formula are known for honing in on the appearance of UV-related skin damage. This makes it a worthy product to use in the summer.
Finally, the PrismaStem Illuminating Phyto Cream rounds this collection off. It uses some unique ingredients to hydrate the skin, including organic algae extract and silk amino acids. Meanwhile, green tea and licorice root extracts lighten the look of hyperpigmentation while caffeine and grape stem cells leave the skin feeling revived.
