Summer Skin Care for Men: How to Look Fresh Even in the Heat
Summer is a great time of year, but it can be a real stress test for your skin. Sun, sweat, frequent showers, air conditioning, and city dust can all weaken, dry, or irritate your skin. The good news? With a few simple steps, your skin will stay healthy, clear, and resilient.
1. Cleansing: The daily foundation for healthy skin
In the summer, we sweat more, produce more sebum, and sunscreen residue, dust, and dirt stick to our faces. If you don't cleanse your skin thoroughly, pores become clogged, pimples form, and other skin care products have no chance of working.
We recommend:
Koolman Cleansing Foam – a gentle but effective cleansing foam. It dissolves sebum and impurities thanks to a combination of natural oils and modern surfactants. It does not dry out, does not irritate and respects the pH of the skin.
Use morning and evening. If you exercise or sweat a lot, feel free to rinse your face with water during the day.
2. Hydration: Inside and Out
Drinking plenty of water is essential in the summer. But be careful – your skin is the last place it goes. That's why it's important to keep water in your skin. Paradoxically, dehydrated skin can look oily – because it tries to protect itself by increasing sebum production.
We recommend:
Koolman Hyaluronic Serum – contains two-molecular hyaluronic acid, which hydrates deeply and on the surface.
Koolman Cream 24 – a light, non-greasy cream with squalane, caviar extract and vitamins. Ideal for the summer months.
Use morning and evening after cleansing. The combination of serum and cream soothes, nourishes and protects the skin.

3. Sun Protection: Don't Skip the SPF
The biggest mistake? Skipping sunscreen. UV radiation causes not only premature aging, but also pigment spots and a weakening of the skin barrier.
Use daily SPF every day—even on cloudy days. Look for products with a light texture that absorbs quickly and doesn't clog pores.
SPF 30+ is suitable and ideally with a mineral filter. SPF is your best anti-aging product.
4. Deodorant: Basic hygiene and respect
In the summer you sweat more than usual – and not just when you exercise. Using deodorant is not an optional extra, but a basic consideration.
Deodorant neutralizes odor, antiperspirant reduces sweating. Choose what suits you - the main thing is to use it every day.
Tip: Choose one that doesn't contain alcohol, which can irritate your skin after shaving.
5. Eye Care: Small Steps, Big Difference
The skin around the eyes is the thinnest, devoid of oil glands and very sensitive to sun, wind and fatigue. The result is puffiness, dark circles and fine lines.
We recommend:
Koolman IT Eye Gel – with panthenol, primrose and rapeseed extract. Cools, hydrates and eliminates signs of fatigue in a few seconds.
Use morning and evening, ideally before serum and cream.
6. Showering: The body needs care too
Frequent showers = risk of dryness. Strong shower gels can disrupt the skin barrier and cause peeling or irritation.
We recommend:
Koolman Shower Oil – gently cleanses and moisturizes at the same time. Contains grape seed oil, almond oil and vitamin E.
Ideal for everyday use, especially after sports or sunbathing.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Can I skip moisturizer in the summer?
No. Just swap it out for a lighter one. Even oily skin needs hydration – otherwise it will get even more oily.
Should I change my routine in the summer?
Yes. Adapt it to the temperature – lighter textures, more frequent cleansing, extra SPF.
What about oily skin?
Cleanse regularly and gently, moisturize without alcohol and exfoliate 1-2 times a week.
