Summer is right around the corner, which means it’s time to prep your skin for a few upcoming changes: Weather patterns where you live and new environments encountered while traveling tend to introduce different exogenous factors than your skin may be used to. What exactly does that mean? Exogenous factors are “outside factors” that affect the health of the skin, including: lifestyle, climate, sun exposure, etc. Although these factors differ based on location and exposure, we have curated a quick guide for maintaining the health and glow of your skin- all summer long. Follow along for Toska’s Tips to combat the ever-changing summer season.
