5 steps: How to get your skin summer-ready
As spring turns to summer and the days get warmer, changes also happen to the skin. More sun, more sweat, and drier air can affect both moisture balance and skin texture – and mature skin especially needs a bit of extra care during this transition.
By making a few simple adjustments to your skincare routine, you can protect and strengthen the skin so that it looks and feels healthy, balanced, and radiant all summer long. Here are some tips on how to get your skin summer-ready with Vessi products – tailored for mature skin.
Step 1: Gentle and effective cleansing
A good cleanser lays the foundation for all skincare – and mature skin needs both gentle yet effective cleansing morning and night.
Vessi Makeup Removal Balm is designed to remove makeup, dirt, and sweat without stripping the skin of its natural oils. With ingredients like oat oil and sea buckthorn berry, it melts into the skin, cleanses pores, and leaves the skin soft and hydrated.
Use morning and evening. Massage the product in with lukewarm water and rinse thoroughly. The skin will feel clean and ready for the next step – without feeling tight or dry.
Step 2: Exfoliate to reveal the glow
As we age, skin cells take longer to renew, which can make the skin uneven and a bit dull. That’s why gentle exfoliation is especially important to bring out the glow.
Vessi Exfoliating Face Scrub removes dead skin cells with natural scrub particles from bamboo extract that don’t irritate the skin. This treatment stimulates cell renewal, gives the skin a fresh appearance, and prepares it to absorb nourishing ingredients from serums and creams.
Use 1–2 times a week, and always follow up with moisturizer to strengthen the skin barrier. You’ll quickly notice your skin feels softer and looks clearer.
Step 3: Hydration and nourishment
When the weather gets warmer, it’s easy to think the skin doesn’t need as much moisture – but that’s not true. Mature skin loses moisture faster and needs care all year round.
Nordic Recovery Cream is a rich and nourishing face cream that still feels light on the skin, providing long-lasting nourishment without clogging pores. With oil from sea buckthorn and lingonberry seeds, along with niacinamide, it helps protect and strengthen the skin barrier, giving softness and glow.
Apply in a thin layer so the skin can absorb the moisture evenly. Perfect as a base after serum, sunscreen, or before makeup.
Step 4: Vitamin C – powerful antioxidant protection
Vitamin C is a powerful antioxidant and one of the most recommended ingredients for mature skin – especially in spring and summer when it is more exposed to UV radiation and free radicals.
Arctic Glow C Serum protects the skin from external aggressors, increases skin elasticity, and supports collagen production – resulting in firmer skin and a more even skin tone. At the same time, the serum provides a natural glow that makes the skin look healthy and fresh.
Use in the morning and optionally in the evening after cleansing and before moisturizer. By strengthening the skin with antioxidants, you get an extra layer of protection before going out in the sun.
Step 5: Refresh with a gel mask
After warm days, the skin may need extra relief and moisture – and a cooling gel mask with blueberry extract is just perfect.
Nordic Aqua Gel Mask is a face mask packed with moisture – and works instantly. It is hydrating, cooling, and soothing for the skin. Blueberry extract is rich in antioxidants and helps protect against free radicals, while strengthening the skin barrier and providing a more even skin tone.
The mask can be used a couple of times a week – preferably after cleansing and before moisturizer. Apply a generous layer to the face and leave it on for 10–15 minutes before rinsing off or gently patting the remaining product into the skin. If the skin is especially dry, you can also use the mask as an intensive overnight treatment.
3 quick tips for glowing summer skin
• Drink enough water: Hydration from within is just as important as hydration from outside. Aim for 1.5–2 liters of water per day.
• Use physical sun protection: In addition to skincare, wear hats, sunglasses, and clothing with UV protection to shield your skin from the sun.
• Eat colorful foods: Foods rich in antioxidants – like berries, green vegetables, and tomatoes – help strengthen the skin against damage and signs of aging.
