The warmest season of the year is usually a time for oversized sunglasses and maxi dresses, farmer’s markets and a bronzed glow. But along with warm weather and sunshine, new skin concerns can appear, calling for a fresh approach to your beauty regimen.

Cecilia Wong, facialist and founder of the New York City based Cecilia Wong Skincare, outlines the most common skincare concerns and cures.
- Sunburn
If long hours in the sun have you looking crisp and crimson, treat skin with Aloe Vera. Rub the glutinous insides of the leaves directly on the sunburn for immediate relief.
- Oily Skin
If you’re prone to oil, try adding a spray toner to your daily routine. The Cecilia Wong Skincare Rejuvenating Toner Mist (4 oz. for $32) is the perfect on the go beauty treatment. Just spritz and keep oil away!
- An Uneven Complexion
If you’re feeling a little two-faced when it comes to your complexion try exfoliating once or twice a week and adding a mask treatment two or three times a week.
Cecilia’s Note: Don’t forget to apply a sunscreen of at least SPF 50 to face and any other exposed areas daily!
- Dark Circles
Ban dark circles with a Vitamin K based cream. A good eye cream—like the Cecilia Wong Skincare Firming Black Currant Eye Cream (1 oz. for $58)—will lighten under eyes and promote circulation.
- Dull Skin
Brighten your drab complexion by exfoliating once or twice a week with cool water. Bring out those bright, new skin cells and slough off all that’s dead. And if you really want to treat yourself, try the Cecilia Wong Skincare Omega and Vitamin C Facial (60 minutes for $180).
