From Ocean Plunge to Coastal Run: The Ultimate Skincare Guide for Surf-and-Run Enthusiasts

For those who love to combine surfing with running, your skin faces a double challenge: salt water immersion followed by sun-exposed runs. Here's how to keep your skin healthy and protected during your surf-and-run adventures.

Surf-and-Run Skincare Challenges

  1. Salt water exposure: Can dry out and irritate skin
  2. Transitioning from water to land: Skin needs to adapt quickly
  3. Extended sun exposure: Both in water and on land
  4. Sand abrasion: During transitions and runs

Your Surf-and-Run Skincare Routine

  1. Pre-Surf Prep:
    • Apply a water-resistant sunscreen
    • Consider a thin layer of Skinfuel's Performance Tallow Cream for added protection
  2. Post-Surf, Pre-Run Transition:
    • Rinse off salt water
    • Reapply sunscreen
    • If time allows, apply a thin layer of Skinfuel's 10% Niacinamide Serum
  3. Post-Run Recovery:
    • Cleanse thoroughly to remove salt, sand, and sweat
