Lightweight Moisturizers for Summer
Ah, summer—the season of beach trips, backyard barbecues, camping, and other sun-kissed adventures. But while we soak up the glorious rays, our poor skin might be feeling compromised. The heat can cause increased water loss, leaving our skin parched and in desperate need of hydration. The question is, how do we keep our skin hydrated without feeling like we’ve slathered ourselves with a tub of butter? The answer is actually pretty simple – lightweight moisturizers!
And if you’re still wondering if we need to moisturize in the summer, let us put your doubts to rest with a resounding YES! While it might seem counterintuitive to apply moisturizer when the weather is all hot and sticky, trust us when we say that your skin will thank you for it.
Why moisturizing matters in summer
Moisturizing in the summer is crucial for maintaining a healthy skin barrier. Not only does it keep moisture locked in, it also helps protect against external aggressors, like pollution and UV rays. The trick is to find moisturizers that are light enough to let your skin breathe while still providing the essential nourishment it craves. We want to avoid that dreaded “greasy-face” feeling without compromising the health of our skin.
The best lightweight moisturizers for summer
Finding the right moisturizer that suits your skin during this time of the year is crucial to ensure that your skin is always properly hydrated and protected sans the heavy or greasy feeling.
When a moisturizer feels heavy, it usually means that it’s not properly absorbing into your skin or that it’s not suitable for your skin type or the current season. Moisturizers that feel heavy on your skin may leave a greasy or sticky residue, making your skin look shiny and even clogging your pores which can eventually lead to congestion and/or breakouts.
So what are the best lightweight moisturizers for summer? Here are some Spalina Skincare moisturizers that are perfect for this season:

Perfect for people with oily or combination skin types, this oil-free moisturizer boasts natural antibacterial properties that help reduce acne breakouts and promote a clearer complexion. With a light citrusy scent, it offers a refreshing experience while providing essential nourishment for your skin.
