How to protect your cosmetics from the heat?

It is important especially in the summer, to protect your cosmetics from the heat and direct sunlight. The temperature rises and it can damage your creams.

Your cosmetics are not only sensitive to high temperatures, but also to its fluctuations. Their composition, performance, but also their shelf life may be affected and the product may be damaged. Spoiled cosmetics should not be used, as they can cause serious skin problems.

Experts recommend keeping beauty products away from any heat source, because it can have a catastrophic effect on them. The ideal place to store them is considered a dark and cool place, without moisture.

Protect your cosmetics from the heat

Creams and serums

Creams and serums are susceptible to high temperatures. So in the summer, these cosmetics need special attention. The increase in heat can lead to a change in the color, texture and aroma of the products. It is also important to keep in mind that their effectiveness and their lifespan is reduced.

During summer you can store creams and serums in the refrigerator. This way they will be better preserved and will have a cool feeling when applying.

Sunscreen

Heat affects the stability of the composition of sunscreens. They still act as a shield against UVA and UVB rays, but the degree of protection decreases, hence their effectiveness.

When going to sea, store the contents in a bag which, if possible, place it in a shady place. Never leave sunscreen on the car, because very high temperatures are created inside it.

Maintain stable storage conditions for your cosmetics all year round to protect their ingredients, to make the most of the advanced product and improve their shelf life.
