Essential skin care tips for monsoon that keeps skin healthy and glowing

A.     CLEANSE

Cleanse your face 2-3 times daily with a gentle oil-free cleanser to remove all the excess oil from your face that can clog pores.

B.      TONER

Cleanser is followed by an alcohol-free toner which helps to maintain your skin’s pH balance & give you a glowing skin.

C.      MOISTURIZER

Keeping skin hydrated is a vital step. A moisturizer is necessary as it nourishes various layers of skin. People with oily skin, use a light gel-based moisturizer.

D.      SUNSCREEN

Even though most days are cloudy, don’t ditch your sunscreen during rainy season. Make sure its SPF 30 and more, waterproof and non-comedogenic.

E.       EXFOLIATION IS THE KEY

Scrubbing your face 2-3 times/ week will help you get rid of dead cells and clogged pores. However, make sure you use a mild scrub without thick granules.

F.       STAY HYDRATED

It is important that you drink enough fluids in monsoon as well to keep skin hydrated from within and prevent it from drying out.

G.     DONT FORGET YOUR HAIR

Use SLS free shampoo which preserve the hair in its natural form and don’t forget to condition it.

H.      GO EASY ON MAKEUP

Try to avoid heavy makeup during monsoon, not only it looks cakey but also blocks pores.

I.        DO LET YOUR FEET BREATHE

Wear open footwear in monsoons as they tend to trap moisture and wetness within, which may lead to infections.
