Why Does Your Summer Glow Start Below the Neck?

This is your friendly reminder: your body deserves just as much love as your face. In the middle of a blazing Tucson summer, your skin is working overtime. From dryness and dullness to texture troubles, your body is asking for a little TLC. So if you are feeling less glow and more “meh,” it might be time to rethink your body care ritual.

Let’s take self-care past the collarbone.

☀️ What Tucson Summers Do to Your Skin

Between the triple-digit heat and high desert air, your body’s skin often becomes dry, tight, or even flaky. Sunscreen, sweat, and dust can all lead to buildup, while the lack of humidity keeps your skin begging for moisture. And let’s not forget those sore, overworked muscles from pool days and weekend hikes. Your body is carrying a lot — literally.

A: Timing is everything. Apply body cream right after your shower while your skin is damp to lock in hydration.

Q: How can I soothe sun-exposed skin?
