Your Late-Summer Skin Reset: Hydrate + Brighten

Your Late-Summer Skin Reset: Hydrate + Brighten

The Valerian Dream Journal — August

By August, your skin has experienced weeks of sunshine, heat, humidity, air conditioning, and maybe even a little summer travel. You may start noticing that your complexion feels drier, looks duller, or that uneven tone and dark spots are a little more noticeable.

This is the perfect time to simplify your routine and focus on two things: hydration and brightness.

Give Your Skin More Hydration

As our skin naturally changes over time, it may not hold onto moisture quite like it used to. If the products you’ve used for years suddenly don’t seem hydrating enough, it doesn’t necessarily mean you need an entirely new routine—your skin may simply be asking for a little more support.

Valerian Dream Hydraglow Face Serum combines Hyaluronic Acid, Aloe, Vitamin E, and Niacinamide to help hydrate and support soft, healthy-looking skin.

Skin Tip: Apply your hydrating serum while your skin is still slightly damp. This gives humectants like Hyaluronic Acid water to attract and helps you get more from your hydration step.

Bring Back Your Glow

Summer sun can also make uneven tone and existing areas of discoloration appear more noticeable.

Valerian Dream Vitamin C Brightening Elixir is an easy addition to your morning routine to help support a brighter, more radiant and even-looking complexion.

Follow with your moisturizer and broad-spectrum SPF every morning. Brightening your complexion and protecting it from additional UV exposure should always go hand in hand.

Keep It Simple

Great skincare doesn’t have to mean using ten products every morning.

Hydrate. Brighten. Moisturize. Protect.

As summer winds down, pay attention to what your skin is telling you. Sometimes a few thoughtful adjustments are all you need to bring your glow into the next season.
