Summer affects skin or face also. In summer you have to follow our skin care tips to get clear and glowing skin.

The high intensity of sun’s rays causes tanning- by producing more melanin pigments. More melanin pigments means more darker skin.
The heat can cause pores to open more, which in turn causes acne, pimples because dirt is accumulated in them.
In this article we will discuss some easy skin care tips how to get clear and glowing skin during this summer.
