Acne, redness, dullness, dry patches. Sometimes your skin got them all. At least, that is my case. When it comes the summer time your skin should be prepped in the right way to avoid sunspots and uneven tan and the best way to achieve it is with regular scrubs and applying SPF everyday.

However, the most important rule I learned – that you have yet read a bunch of times – is to always moisturize my skin. Even if it is oily, even if it is boiling hot outside. Remember that dehydrated skin leads to just more acne and oiliness.

Below you will find some products I discovered during Spring months that made such a difference for hydrating my problematic skin.

FACE | In the pursuit of the perfect moisturizer for dehydrated skin the new Clarins Booster Repair totally changed its texture soothing redness and dry patches. It should be applied twice a day exclusively blended with your usual cream and it is recommended for sensible skin from dry to combination. For acne prone skins you should try to pair the serum with the famous La Roche-Posay Effaclar Duo into your night routine to care imperfections and marks.

EYES | Every make-up routine consists of covering dark circles but not as much includes an eye cream. Both Clinique Pep-Start Eye Cream and Tony Moly Panda’s Dream So Cool EyeStick refresh the under eye area and keep it moisturized throughout the day.

HANDS | & Other Stories Hand Cream in Moroccan Tea is a moisturizer with an herbal scent to reach for a light relief in the hottest months but do not expect to get a high hydrating power.
