UV exposure, even before it feels "sunny"
You don't need scorching heat for UV rays to affect your skin. They're already breaking down collagen and depleting moisture levels on an average spring day. Add a heatwave into the mix, and that process accelerates fast, leaving skin dull, tight, and visibly stressed.
Chlorine does more harm than you'd expect
Once the sun's out, the pool sessions start. But chlorine strips your skin's natural oils with every swim, weakening your barrier and making it harder for skin to hold onto moisture. That dry, papery feeling after a swim? That's your skin asking for help.
Heat itself is deeply dehydrating
High temperatures pull moisture out of the skin faster than your body can replace it. More sun, more sweating, more cleansing; it compounds quickly. And the solution isn't just drinking more water. Your skin needs targeted hydration from the outside in.
