Summer Body Care: A Dry-Skin Routine for the Whole Family

In summer we focus on our face: sunscreen, toner, cream, serum. The body? A quick shower and done. But your body takes the same dose of sun, salt and chlorine as your face. Skin dries out, loses elasticity, feels tight. Hands get chapped between water, soap and sun. Your body needs a routine too, even in summer. Simple, effective, for the whole family.

Why your body suffers in summer

Body skin has fewer sebaceous glands than your face. It dehydrates more easily and has fewer natural defenses. In summer, frequent showers (even two a day), harsh cleansers, sun exposure and contact with salt and chlorine drain the skin barrier. The result: skin that feels tight, dry and starts to flake.
Your hands are the most exposed area of all: frequent washing, direct sun, salt water. Yet they're the most neglected part of a summer routine.

Three steps, the whole family

Essere's New Body Ritual Kit covers it with three products that work together:
