Tips to Stay Healthy in Summer
Tips to Stay Healthy in Summer
It is easy to neglect our skin in the summer. The warmer, more humid
weather means our skin isn’t as dry and itchy as it is in the winter;
and the sun kissed look of a tan can make us feel better when we look in the mirror.
But the lazy days of summer don’t mean we should be lazy with our skin
care regime; in fact, we should be even more diligent. Follow these six
easy steps for gorgeous summer skin.1. Wear safe, non-toxic sunscreen, even on cloudy days
The worst sunburn I ever saw was on a person who thought she could stay out for hours without sunscreen because it was overcast. The sun’s burning rays are remarkably powerful and proficient, so wear sunscreen every day. When choosing a sunscreen, look for an SPF of at least 30, if you have fair skin. But don’t be seduced by super-high SPF numbers because their incremental sun protection diminishes as SPF increases, especially at higher levels. Many sunscreens with SPF from 50 to 100, for example, effectively block just 1-2% more sunburn rays than an SPF 30 products. Regardless of which SPF you choose, you should reapply often (ideally every 90 minutes), and always after swimming.2. Avoid tanning beds
We now know that tanning beds are linked to cancer and are no safer than the actual sun, so think carefully about the risks you expose yourself to when you go to a tanning salon. If you really want some summer skin color, avoid tanning beds and choose a safer option, such as self-tanning towels and lotions. Be sure to check the ingredients label to ensure the base formulation is safe (avoid methylparaben and synthetic perfume if possible).3. Exfoliate at least once a week, ideally twice
Dead cells sit on the surface of your skin making it look dull, rough and dry. By exfoliating, you are removing these dead cells, allowing your more radiant, healthier summer skin to shine through. Exfoliating also allows skin cells to regenerate more quickly, which keeps aging at bay. Whenever possible, choose a gentle, more natural exfoliator. Some “fruit acid” exfoliators such as alpha hydroxy acid and beta hydroxy acid (AHA and BHA) can actually be very harsh and cause significant irritation. Choose products with natural exfoliating grains instead.4. Moisturize your skin
In the summer it is tempting to ease up on moisturizing because your skin may not feel as dry. But good moisturizers work over time, promoting healthy skin with consistent use. We don’t stop eating well or exercising in the summer, so we shouldn’t stop taking care of our skin. If you do happen to get a sunburn, act fast to mitigate the negative effects by moisturizing liberally and often with a lotion containing aloe vera. This will keep the burned skin well hydrated, and it will help to soothe the discomfort.5. Have lots of summer fun, but don’t skimp on sleep
Lack of sleep can lead to increased levels of stress hormones, which may slow the production of collagen in the skin. When our skin stops producing collagen, it begins to lose elasticity and starts looking tired and worn.6. Drink lots of water
Drinking water benefits how well your body functions and ultimately affects how your skin looks and feels. For example, proper hydration helps flush toxins from your body. When toxins build up, they cause organs such as your kidneys to work less efficiently, which has a direct impact on your skin. Sip water through out the day and consider following the 8 x 8 rule: drink eight 8 ounce glasses of water every day.Different Ways to Beat the Summer heat
Different Ways to Beat the Summer heat
Summer
in South Africa is no laughing matter. Everyone knows that sinking
feeling when the weather report contains those red patches which
indicate temperatures in the 30+ region. So what is there you can do,
besides waiting for winter with bated breath? Quite a lot actually.
Avoid the sun. It sounds so simple, but clearly not everyone's
doing this: stay out of the direct sun as far as possible between 10 am
and 5 pm. Not only will you be cooler, but you will also not be
suffering from the very unpleasant effects of sunburn. Seek out the shade or stay indoors.
Be an early bird. Organise your trips to banks and post offices
and the supermarket for the early morning before the real heat sets in.
Many shops are also open in the evenings. That way you can avoid boiling
parking lots and other hot, tired customers.
Have a swim or a cold shower. Just remember that UV rays
penetrate up to a metre into the water, so do take care. Lying on an
inflatable mattress on the water could leave you with very severe
sunburn. Cold water helps to cool down your core body temperature for
quite a while after you get out out of the pool or the shower.
Cars are death traps. Don’t leave any children or pets in the
car in the midday sun. Even with the windows open, on a hot day within
minutes the interior temperature will be well into the high forties.
This could be a real killer. This also seems obvious, but every summer
there are instances of kids locked in boiling cars in parking lots.
Do a shutdown. Open windows in your home do not necessarily make
things cooler. If a room does not get direct sun, chances are the
temperature inside the house will be cooler than it is outside. This
changes only when the sun goes down. That is the time to open up
everything. Open doors and windows on opposite sides of the house - you
might get a cross-breeze going.
Water, water everywhere. Your body sweats to cool you down and
you dehydrate quite significantly in the process. If the temperature
goes over 30 degrees Celsius, it is a good idea to drink up to eight
glasses of water during the day. This holds true even if it is not hot. Keep a water bottle in your bag or in the car or on your desk.
Invest in air-conditioning. If you live in a place such as
Upington or Pietermaritzburg, an air-conditioner is definitely worth it
in the long run. Even if you only install it in one room, it could go a
long way to making summer bearable.
Shield against the sun. This not only stops your car from
getting damaged, it also stops the steering wheel from burning you if
the car has been standing in the full sun for a while.
Go natural. Cotton allows your skin to breathe, unlike synthetic materials like nylon, which make you sweaty and uncomfortable.
Open up. Invest in a mosquito net and bars for your bedroom
window or outside door, so that you can sleep with the doors or windows
open. Just check your security arrangements.
Become part of the fan club. A fan goes a long way towards
cooling things down. Putting a large plastic container of cold water in
front of the fan also brings down the temperature quite considerably.
Emergency measures. If you are feeling the heat and you can’t
seem to cool down, putting your hands, feet or face in cold water makes a
big difference. These things can also be done at work in the office
cloakrooms, or if you are working outside, in a bucket of water.
Hot, very hot. Don’t eat curried or other hot foods as they push
up your heat levels. Salads and cold meats are infinitely preferable in
the midday sun to braaied meat and oven-baked potatoes. And it is a
healthier meal.
Time for a wet T-shirt? In an emergency, wrap wet towels round your feet or put on a damp garment.
