During monsoon, use a gentle cleanser which removes dirt and excess oil without stripping your skin’s natural moisture. Look for a mild and pH-balanced face wash.
Exfoliate your skin at least 1-2 times a week, to remove dead skin cells and prevent clogged pores. Use a gentle scrub to avoid irritation, especially if you have sensitive skin.
Regardless of your skin type, moisturizing is crucial. Choose a lightweight and non-greasy moisturizer to keep your skin hydrated without making it oily.
Drink plenty of water to keep your skin hydrated from the inside out. Adequate hydration helps to maintain skin elasticity and a healthy glow.
Even on cloudy days, harmful UV rays can affect your skin. Use a broad-spectrum sunscreen with at least SPF 40 to protect your skin from sun damage.
During the humid monsoon season, avoid heavy makeup as it can clog pores, which leads to breakouts. Opt for minimal and breathable makeup or go makeup-free.
Excess humidity can make your skin prone to fungal infections. Keep your skin dry by patting it gently with a soft towel or handkerchief and use antifungal powders in susceptible areas.
Your diet plays an important role in your skin’s health. Eat plenty of fruits and vegetables, which is rich in antioxidants, vitamins, and minerals to nourish your skin.
