Monsoon just doesn’t come alone. With it, comes a host of problems for the skin too. Have you ever had an increase in acne breakout, rashes, clogged skin pores or oiliness during the rainy season? These are all possible implications of not changing skincare regime as the seasons change from summer to monsoon. This season, let your skin be healthy while you enjoy the monsoon rains!
Dolly Kumar, Founder and Director at Skinella, shares monsoon skin care tips that everyone should follow:
#1 Cleanse your face more often
The rains and storms during the monsoon season bring a lot of dust with them, dust which settles on our faces and body, stripping skin of glow and shine. It is crucial to cleanse skin to get rid of impurities. A gentle face wash like Blueberry Face Wash brightens skin giving a supple look.
#2 Use sunscreen
Whether sunny or cloudy, summers or monsoon, harmful UV rays always have the potential to damage our skin. Sunscreen is a must! With the humidity and dampness, it could get annoying to put a sunscreen that leaves skin all oily and greasy! Choose a non-greasy sunscreen like Watermelon Sunscreen that easily blends with skin, protecting against skin damage.
#3 Exfoliate your skin
Monsoon could often pave way for skin damage and dead skin cells. Exfoliation is the key solution here. We must exfoliate our skin with scrubs to get rid of the dead skin and give back skin its smooth and glowing look! Use products having natural exfoliators like Honey Oats Face Scrub for skin nourishment without feeding chemicals to the skin!
#4 Provide care to your lips
With humidity, don’t our lips often turn dull, dry and pale? Bring vibrancy back to your lips by regularly using Strawberry lip balm that moisturizes and hydrates your lips, leaving them velvety smooth. Bid adieu to cracked and chapped lips this monsoon!
#5 Moisturize
The humidity in the monsoon season leaves the face and body feeling extra dehydrated, devoid of moisture. Now moisturise and hydrate your skin with Grapefruit Face & Body Sorbet, keeping your skin nourished and fresh throughout the day!
