Let’s talk summer skin care tips, yes, even in Bolton where the sun sometimes feels like an urban legend. Just because the weather here swings from “grey drizzle” to “surprise scorcher” in 0.5 seconds doesn’t mean your skin should be neglected. Whether you’re chilling at Queen’s Park or panic-sweating on the way to the Aldi near Deane Road, your skin deserves some serious attention.
Hi, I’m your friend, and I’m here to give you the real talk on summer skin care tips, no fluff, no filters, just good advice (with a sprinkle of Bolton banter).
Look, I know it’s tempting to skip SPF when the sky looks like soggy Weetabix. But UV rays are sneaky—up to 80% still hit your skin even when it’s cloudy. Bolton’s classic grey isn’t protecting you from sun damage; it’s just being lowkey about it.
Pollution, stress, takeaway-fuelled late nights, and yes, Bolton’s chaotic weather, all affect your skin. So, no matter the forecast, don’t sleep on your skincare.
Sunny days in nature call for SPF and hydration, key summer skin care tips every Orlando Village student should follow.
Here’s your go-to list of summer skin care tips:
-
Use SPF 30 or higher every day, no matter the weather. Rain or shine, your face needs it.
-
Reapply sunscreen every 2 hours—especially if you’re outdoors or even just vibing on a bench outside uni.
-
Don’t skip your neck, ears, and hands. They age fast, and we’re not here for early crow’s feet.
-
Lip balm with SPF is a non-negotiable. Nobody wants flaky lips at Freshers Fest.
Hydration? It’s giving essential.
You can’t have glowing skin on a diet of iced coffee and air alone.
Here’s how to stay skin-smooth and hydrated in Bolton’s humid one minute, dry the next kind of summer:
-
Drink 6–8 glasses of water a day (sorry, Diet Coke doesn’t count).
-
Snack on water-rich foods—cucumber, oranges, watermelon.
-
Take shorter, lukewarm showers. Hot ones strip your skin faster than a reality show scandal.
-
Moisturise daily—bonus points if it’s got hyaluronic acid.
When heading out, pack your Bolton summer skin care tips:
-
Travel-sized SPF
-
Hydrating facial mist
-
Lip balm with SPF
-
Water bottle
-
Sunglasses (yes, for your eyes and those squint wrinkles)
It’s your ultimate hot-weather defence squad—ready for any kind of Manc-style heatwave (or cloud-break).
Living in Bolton doesn’t mean giving up the glow. These summer skin care tips are easy, budget-friendly, and student-proof. Whether you’re sunbathing on campus grass or power-walking through town in a heatwave, give your skin the TLC it deserves.
And after all that effort, reward your glowy self with a chill hangout at The Hub at Orlando Village. PS5, cinema room, and cold drinks? Say less. Don’t forget—you can book your room online, easy-peasy.
Stay glowy, hydrated, and protected this summer—and don’t let Bolton’s unpredictable skies dull your shine. ✨
