With the kind of random weather that we have in our city, you can't ever be sure of when will it be sunny and which hours would be covered by glooms. This means you can't know how the weather is going to affect your skin. The alternating humidity as well as heat can make your skin feel unhealthy in various ways which sometimes can't be entirely repaired. There are chances that the condition can worsen and people who have combination skin i.e parts dry and parts oily suffer even more. Hence, we're here to give you a few easy ways in which you can care for your skin due to fluctuating temperatures.
- Moisturize: Very important step to include in all your skincare routines is moisturizing. No matter what your skin type, always make sure your skin is well moisturized. It works as a protective later on the skin and also blocks the dust and dirty rainwater from entering the pores. Not just that, it also makes sure that your skin is well hydrated and nourished at all times. Also, you must apply the moisturizer within 60 seconds of showering as this will ensure the outside temperature doesn't affect the health of your skin.
- Sunscreen: Now, if you think you only have to wear the sunscreen if it's sunny outside, you've been living under a rock. You literally have to put on your sunscreen regardless of the weather or the season. It will protect your skin from the harmful V rays by layering your skin with a protective layer. Sunscreens minimize the penetration of UV rays into the skin which can trigger many skin conditions.
- Simplify your makeup: Be it dry skin or oily, any amount of makeup will affect your skin and that's no news. It can clog your pores which can result in acne and breakouts. Hence, simplifying your makeup routine so that the weather doesn't affect your skin even more is the best bet.
- Cut down your shower time: Warm water showers can of course open up your pores, but this means it makes it easier for the outside temperatures to affect your skin easily. Reduce your long showers into short ones so that your natural oils are not lost and it doesn't make your skin too dry and dull.
- Choose a creamy cleanser: Heavy duty cleansers and body washes can literally take away all the needed natural oils from your skin which makes it more prone to dry skin. Rather, a simple swap to a creamy cleanser will keep your skin nourishes and also will help it get rid of the dry skin cells and dirt.
You sure can't control the weather, but you sure can control your skin health, right?
