Summer calls for a change to your skincare routine. While you may have your go-to moisturizers for cooler days, the warmer months ahead signal a shift to lightweight alternatives that target your skin's most pressing needs as temperatures rise.

The Light Cream from Augustinus Bader fits that bill perfectly, wrapping skin in lasting moisture while working overtime to diminish pores, smooth away wrinkles, and leave your complexion with a matte finish to counter those sticky summer days.

At its core is the brand's signature Trigger Factor Complex TFC™ technology. TFC8® supports the communication between your skin's cells, a vital function that can decline with age.

That constant connection between cells promotes efficient renewal, so your skin stays softer and looks healthier from day one. TFC8® makes this so much more than a basic moisturizer, packing in benefits that affect both texture and appearance.

Among those is a visible reduction in imperfections and uneven tone, refreshing your skin with a clear and luminous look.

The Light Cream also contains potent antioxidants that guard your skin from antioxidant damage, including Australian lemon myrtle extract and rice bran oil.

The formula's Triple Hydration Complex locks in moisture, keeping your skin soft and supple on contact while promoting a plumper appearance and a firmer complexion. Baobab leaf extract adds to its anti-aging properties by enhancing elasticity.

Virtually anyone can use this top-selling moisturizer, too, even those with sensitive skin. With botanically-derived ingredients and aloe vera, it has a soothing effect that can actually reduce irritation and ease away the red spots.

Another highlight is bio-optimized green tea, a strong antioxidant said to be 25 times more potent than vitamin C.

With such a weightless feel, it's no wonder that so many love The Light Cream, with many rating it their top choice for the warmest months of the year.

'Best lightweight AB moisturizer for the humid, hot, and sticky days to come,' one customer raved, noting it works well when it's 'steamy' outside.

'This is perfect. I love how it goes into my skin, leaving it soft and with a glow. I don’t feel oily after an hour, which is amazing,' another added.

Your skin deserves the best year-round, and there's nothing like The Light Cream from Augustinus Bader to protect and nurture your complexion when it heats up!
