Beautiful Summer Skin – Don’t BE Jelly, GET Gelly!

It’s no secret that moisturizer is critical for combating dry skin, and beautiful summer skin demands its own moisturizing routine.

In the winter, when the air is dry and your heating bill is high, your skin practically begs you to slather on thick creams and lotions. But the summer brings humidity, so moisturizing doesn’t need to be a priority, right? Wrong! When you’re spending more time outside, the sun and heat can take a toll on your skin - so skipping moisturizer is no bueno.

What’s a great summer moisturizer that will let you enjoy the sunshiny day while keeping dry skin at bay? Gels!

Gels are the super summer-friendly way of delivering moisture to your summer skin. Not only do they work well with all skin types, they also have fabulous benefits that will keep your skin feeling good all summer long.

Hydrating

Whether you’re lounging by the pool, soaking up some rays at the beach, or keeping cool indoors, sun exposure, chlorine, and even air conditioning can pull moisture right out of your skin, leaving it feeling tight and itchy – a sure sign your skin is PARCHED!

When you’re thirsty, what do you do? Grab some water! Your skin is no different.

Moisturizers trap water in your skin. This helps your skin produce natural oils. But moisturizers can only work with the water that your skin has already absorbed. If your skin is dehydrated, it’s lacking water and needs some extra help getting it.

Cue the gels! Gels are water-based, so they don’t just trap moisture – they actually hydrate your skin and help soften, condition and restore skin tones. To keep that hydration working overtime by slowing down the evaporation of water from you skin, look for a gel that contains glycerin – like Cococare Coconut Moisturizing Gel and Cococare Vitamin E Antioxidant Gel.

According to Heathline, a quick pinch test can help you check if your skin is dehydrated. Here’s the test: just lightly squeeze your cheek. Do you see any wrinkling? When you let go, is your skin reluctant to bounce back into place? If so, it’s time to replenish your – and your skin’s – hydration.

Lightweight & Quick Absorbing

Doesn’t it feel like you just packed away your sweaters and jackets? Don’t pile layers back on with rich moisturizers! Heavier lotions and creams can be too thick for summer use, as the heat can cause them to slip off your skin before absorbing completely, leaving you feeling like a literal hot mess.

Gel moisturizers know you’ve got places to be! Because they’re water-based, gel moisturizers quickly absorb into your skin like water into a sponge. They also make a fantastic base for makeup, especially since they’re less likely to bind to your skin’s natural oils to trap dirt and cause breakouts.

Cococare Coconut Moisturizing Gel is perfect for daily use on your entire body – including hands and feet – to keep you feeling fresh all summer long. And that tropical coconut smell lets you know that you’re getting all the nutritive powers of coconut!

Soothing

Pro-Tip: Store a bottle of your gel moisturizer in the fridge! Then applying it will literally help cool you down while it soothes your skin. Try it once – it will become your new summer skincare ritual.

Cococare Vitamin E Antioxidant Gel is a smart choice for summer days, offering a nutritive boost of hydration when skin is hot and thirsty. This fast-absorbing, vitamin-rich body gel is color free, fragrance free, non-greasy, and goes on smoothly. With daily use, the natural moisturizers can help restore skin tones – and it’s ideal for all skin types.

Cococare Vitamin E Antioxidant Gel can even provide instant relief for sunburned skin – and the powerful antioxidant properties of Vitamin E can help expedite the healing process. (We know you’re careful about not getting sunburned, but just in case…)

Perfect for Summer (and for Your Wallet)

Between their featherlight feel, quick absorption, and deep hydrating qualities, gel moisturizers are perfect for summertime use. They can withstand heat and sweat without making your skin feel bogged down, and you don’t have to worry about greasy residue rising to your skin’s surface.

Know what else Cococare’s gel moisturizers can withstand? The wallet test. At only $6.25 for an 8.5-ounce bottle, Cococare’s Coconut Moisturizing Gel and Vitamin E Antioxidant Gel are ready to slide into your beauty regimen.
