Holidays abroad are a time for relaxation, rejuvenation, and exploring new places. However, changes in climate, sun exposure, and varying conditions can affect the condition of our skin. Here are a few simple tips on how to care for your skin during a trip abroad to warm regions.

Preparation for the trip
Everything is planned, suitcases packed; now it's time to focus on preparing your skin for the vacation. This way, it will be healthier and more resilient to the challenging conditions that may arise during your travels.
Wise before the fact
Summer poses a real challenge for our skin. While we relax on warm beaches, our skin doesn't necessarily fare so well. Unless we take proper care of it. It's worth starting this process well in advance.
You can take advantage of moisturizing, nourishing, and cleansing treatments that will prepare your skin for the challenges of vacation. Remember that vacations abroad mean more frequent and longer exposure to scorching sun. Therefore, it requires exceptional protection.
At Project Beauty Clinic, we offer a wide range of treatments designed to strengthen your skin and give it a healthy appearance. Explore our moisturizing treatments for summer!
Effective sun protection
Sun protection is a crucial element in caring for your skin during vacations abroad. UV radiation can be very harmful, so it's important to know a few basic principles of sun protection.
Appropriate sunscreen
One of the most important aspects of skincare during vacations abroad is sun protection. Choose sunscreen with SPF 30 or higher, which effectively protects the skin from UV rays. Remember to apply sunscreen 30 minutes before going out in the sun and reapply every 2-3 hours, as well as after swimming.
Head covering and sunglasses
A hat and sunglasses are not just fashion accessories that add style on the beach; they are crucial elements of skin protection. Wear a hat or a cap with a brim to shield your face and neck from the sun. UV-filter sunglasses will also protect the delicate skin around your eyes.
Skin moisturization
During vacations, your skin can quickly become dehydrated, especially in warm climates. Therefore, it's crucial not to forget regular moisturization under any circumstances.
Every day...
...use lightweight yet intensely moisturizing creams and serums that provide essential nutrients to your skin. Also, remember to drink plenty of water to hydrate your skin from the inside out.
Once a week...
...apply a moisturizing mask to additionally regenerate your skin after a day spent in the sun. You can choose between sheet masks or cream masks that you leave on your skin overnight.
Skin cleansing
Skin cleansing is another crucial step in your daily skincare routine because the skin is exposed to pollutants and residual cosmetics.
Gentle cleansing
After a day spent on the beach or exploring cities, thoroughly cleanse your skin from sunscreen residue, sweat, and pollutants. Opt for gentle facial cleansers like mild gels or foams that do not dry out the skin. Avoid aggressive scrubs that can irritate the skin.
Toning and serum
After cleansing your skin, use a toner to restore its natural pH balance, then apply a serum tailored to your skin's needs. Serums containing vitamin C or hyaluronic acid are ideal for vacations abroad, providing your skin with extra hydration and protection.
Remember the basics
Skincare during vacations requires attention to specific aspects, but we should always remember the basics. Read an article about skincare mistakes and check if you're caring for your skin correctly throughout the year.
Holidays abroad eventually come to an end...
After returning from vacation, your skin may require additional regeneration.
At this stage, we invite you once again to take advantage of the treatments offered at Project Beauty Clinic, which can help rebuild your skin and restore its healthy appearance.
Holidays abroad are a wonderful time for us. Make sure your skin enjoys it just as much. Remember to provide proper sun protection, regular moisturization, and gentle cleansing, and your skin will thank you. Have a great vacation!
