The rainy season is a nice escape from the summer heat, but it also brings humidity, blocked pores, breakouts, and dull skin along with the cool wind and petrichor. It's time to change up your skincare routine if it hasn't changed with the weather yet.
Here's how to shine, even when it rains.
1. Get rid of the stickiness
Sweat, oil, and dirt produce humidity, which can clog pores. To maintain your skin clean and fresh, wash it twice a day with a health face wash. Eventone 4 Face Wash by Pharma Health Pakistan (Private) Limited is ideal. If you have acne then Airol-N Acne Control Face Wash is ideal for you.
2. Don't forget to use moisturizer (yes, even now)
People assume that moisturizers are no longer needed during the rainy season. Not right! The skin still needs water. Just switch to a composition that is light and won't clog your pores. It should include hyaluronic acid or glycerin in it. It keeps moisture in without making you oily. For hydration of skin, Sofner Ultra Hydrating Lotion is the right choice.
3. Sunscreen isn't only for the summer
Even if the sun isn't shining, UV rays are still out there. Even on cloudy days, you should use sunscreen with an SPF of at least 40 & PA+++. In such a case, your skin will thank you later for Solaris SC Sunscreen Gel.
4. Exfoliate, but be gentle
When it rains, dead skin can build up. To get rid of dull skin and keep your pores from getting blocked, exfoliate once or twice a week. If your skin can withstand it, pick a mild scrub or a chemical exfoliator containing AHAs or BHAs.
5. Use makeup that works well in the rain
The mantra for monsoon makeup is "waterproof, breathable, and minimal." Stay clear from hefty foundations that dissolve.
6. Don't only drink water; eat it too
Your plate shows on your skin. Eat a lot of fruits and vegetables that are high in water, such watermelon, oranges, and cucumbers. Stay away from fatty, fried foods that might cause breakouts when it's humid.
7. Don't let it become too dry
When it rains, the towels become wet, the hair gets wet, and the moisture gets stuck. Don't sleep with wet hair, use a new towel for your face, and don't use sweaty napkins again. This can cause fungal infections.
8. Hair Care
In rainy season, your hairs need unmatched protection with extra hair strength at the level of follicles. Photonic MAX Shampoo with Biotin, Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Extract and Zinc Pyrithione should be your ultimate choice.
Last Splash
The rainy season is a nice time of year, but don't allow it make you forget about taking care of your skin. Your skin can be happy, healthy, and glowing even when the weather is bad if you make the correct changes. So, change up your regimen, stick to it, and let your natural glow brighten up even the darkest rainy day.
