Summer is a time for fun and adventures. However, this does not mean you should sacrifice skincare even if you are not able to stick to your regular skincare routine. It is essential to protect your skin from the harsh elements to avoid damage, dryness, and acne. Skincare specialists from Neora are here to help you with some advice for a perfect, skin-friendly, and comfortable nature getaway.You are planning a hiking, camping or glamping adventure which means you understand you need to make some sacrifices. There is so much space in your backpack and a lot of things you need to bring along. You may think there is no room for large cosmetic products and no running water available in some areas. However, skin protection is not something you should make compromises for. Skincare for a camping trip needs some adjustments, especially since you need to choose products that are light, natural, and eco-friendly.Pack efficientlyYou will live out of a backpack for a while, and so you need to stick to the basics. There is no room for extra toiletries near your camping equipment, clothes, and other essentials. When it comes to skincare, make sure you pack at least a cleanser and a moisturizer. Your focus while in the wild should be on shielding and protecting your face from damaging environmental elements. Choose products that come in small containers, so you have no issues when packing.SPF is your friendAn outdoor trip means your skin will be extensively exposed to the damaging UV rays all day long. Make sure you bring along products with high SPF protection, from moisturizers to lip balm. To make packing more efficient, use a day cream with at least 30 SPF sunscreen included.Combat Heat and DrynessHiking or camping outdoors can leave your skin dry and irritated due to the sun and wind action on your face all day long. You can combat this effect by finding ways to stay fresh. Use a head to toe salve and carry it along so you have it handy and ready to use at any time. You can use it for insects’ bites or alleviate hiking trail scratches or sunburns. You will be surprised by the effect a little salve has in combating the discomfort.Use unscented toiletriesThe scent attracts mosquitoes and other unwanted bugs. Unscented wipes are a great way to stay fresh and clean without too much weight in your luggage and without attracting extra insects. Just make sure you use natural and biodegradable products.Prepare before your tripThe last night before your big adventurous journey is the night for preparation. You can even book a spa appointment or do a full skincare routine at home. Start with deep cleansing and exfoliating. Then you can add a face mask and a deep moisturizer to your routine. The important part is to have your face prepared for the outdoors and get it as much moisturizing as it may need.An outdoor adventure is a time for exploration, conquering new heights, or time for nature fun. However, you need to be prepared for nature for multiple points of view. You bring along hiking or camping equipment, but your skin needs extra care too. Adapt your skincare routine to the new outdoor climate and make sure you feel fresh and comfortable at all times. Take your time to plan your skin regimen, and you will make your time outdoors that much more enjoyable. Just make sure you consider convenience, climate, and nature when preparing for the big outdoors.
