Spring and summer bring longer days, more sunshine, and plenty of outdoor activities. While soaking up the sun can boost your mood, it also exposes your skin to harmful UV rays that can cause premature aging, sunburn, and other skin concerns. Protecting your skin with the right products is essential to maintain a healthy, glowing complexion throughout these seasons.
Elta MD offers two standout collections designed to meet your skincare needs during spring and summer: the UV Clear Collection and the UV Daily Collection. These collections exclusivity at The Wax Spot Laser & Skin Spa combine effective sun protection with skin-nourishing ingredients, making them ideal for daily use. Let’s explore how these collections can transform your skincare routine and keep your skin radiant and protected.
Elta MD UV Clear and UV Daily sunscreens provide lightweight, effective sun protection for sensitive and everyday skin.
Why Sun Protection Matters More in Spring and Summer
As the sun climbs higher in the sky, UV radiation intensifies. UVB rays cause sunburn, while UVA rays penetrate deeper, contributing to skin aging and increasing the risk of skin cancer. Even on cloudy days, up to 80% of UV rays reach your skin. This makes daily sun protection non-negotiable.
Spring and summer also bring heat and humidity, which can make heavy skincare products uncomfortable. Lightweight, non-greasy formulas that protect without clogging pores or causing irritation are essential. Elta MD’s collections are designed with these factors in mind.

The UV Clear Collection focuses on providing broad-spectrum sun protection while calming and protecting sensitive or acne-prone skin. This collection is popular among dermatologists and skincare enthusiasts for its gentle yet effective formulas.

How to Incorporate Elta MD Sunscreens into Your Routine
Using sunscreen effectively means applying it correctly and consistently. Here’s how to make the most of Elta MD’s UV Clear and Daily collections during spring and summer:
Morning Routine
Cleanse your face with a gentle cleanser.
Apply your favorite serum or treatment (such as vitamin C or niacinamide).
Use a moisturizer if needed, especially if you have dry skin.

If using makeup, apply it after the sunscreen has absorbed.
Throughout the Day
Reapply sunscreen every two hours when outdoors.
Use the UV Clear or UV Daily spray for quick touch-ups without disturbing makeup.
Wear protective clothing, hats, and sunglasses for added defense.
Evening Routine
Remove sunscreen thoroughly with a gentle cleanser.
Follow with your regular nighttime skincare routine.

Consider wearing a wide-brimmed hat and UV-protective sunglasses for extra protection.
