All of which makes you happy but your skin at the same time it maybe getting harsh on the skin. The dry sun of the summers, gets harsh on the skin and reduces the skin capacity to retain moisture.

The best way to do so is to apply natural moisturising agents like, milk cream, yogurt, honey etc. These are natural cream agents. Apply cream to your skin everyday and keep it for 20 minutes. After that scrub it off with some flour. The milk cream helps your skin to remain hydrated for a longer time.
Cleansing And Toning – The cleansing and toning regime has to continue even in summers as you are more exposed to harsh sun and pollution with all your travelling. The best way to cleanse your skin is to wash your face with cold milk every time you return from your day's work. Milk not only cleanses your skin, removes the dead skin, moisturises the skin and also cures summer skin problems. The best natural skin toner is rose water. It's best to freeze the rose water in cubes a apply it before going to bed. This summer skin care routine, helps to keep your skin away from summer rashes, acne, pimples etc.
