However, it is said that the amount of sebum secreted in summer is 1.5 to 2 times higher than in winter.
Is it necessary to use a highly moisturizing body cream even in the summer?
The answer is yes.
The skin also becomes dry in the summer.
① Sweat <br>As the temperatures remain high, you will sweat profusely to regulate your body temperature.
Sweat evaporates, removing heat from the surface of the body and cooling the body.
However, when sweat evaporates, it takes moisture away from the skin, making it more susceptible to dryness.
If you sweat, wipe it off frequently and rinse it off in the shower as soon as possible.
② Ultraviolet rays <br>The "sebum film" which is a mixture of sweat and sebum also acts as a barrier to protect the skin's moisture, but exposure to strong ultraviolet rays in the summer can weaken this barrier function and cause dry skin.
③ Air conditioner <br>Air conditioner dries out the air, which strips moisture from your skin and causes it to become dry.
What kind of body cream should I use?
We recommend a body cream or body milk that is high in moisture and has a light texture.
There are types that can be used on wet skin, types that contain cooling ingredients, and whitening types that can help prevent blemishes and freckles.
There is a wide range of products available even in the summer, so choose based on function and your favorite scent.
