Summers Are Approaching! Skincare Guide

Every season brings different environmental conditions that impact not only your lifestyle, routine diet, and dressing style but also your skin. We often tend to neglect our skin needs. However, aligning our skincare routine with the seasonal weather changes can save us from various skin woes such as dryness, tanning, acne, pigmentation and more.
The summer season is all about lounging at the beach, pool parties or impromptu vacations. We know it is all about relaxing and refreshing ourselves. Yet, this season can be a boon and a bane. The "sunkissed" caption might go well for your Instagram pictures but can severely affect your skin tone, radiance, and texture.

Why? That's because, along with the sunshine, the summer season brings heat and humidity. Every year, between March and June, the temperatures soar, and the summer heat in India can be unforgiving. It can cause skin problems like heat rashes, sunburns, dark patches, increased sebum production and clogged pores.

At the same time, those with dry skin could benefit from the humidity, as the moisture in the air can provide much-needed hydration. Nonetheless, staying outdoors can expose your skin to harmful UV rays and damage it.
So, should you stay indoors throughout the summer? No, of course not! You must step out and unwind, but realise that sticking to only sunscreen for your skincare is not enough. You need to level up and summer-proof skin this season.
