The arrival of the monsoon provides very important relief from the scorching summer, but it also enters a host of skin concerns. Additional humidity, unexpected fall, and moist position creates the right environment for brakeouts, closed holes, dull and fungal infections. To maintain healthy, bright skin during this unexpected season, it is important to adapt your skincare routine to suit the season.
Here the monsoon-proof is a simple guide to help your skin, as Dr. Khushboo is shared by Tantia, MD (DVL), La Derma Skin N Hair Clinic Chief Dermatologist:
Light your skincare
Heavy creams and oil-based moisturizers may feel suffocated on the skin during humid days. They prevent pores and contribute to acne. Instead, switch to light, water-based moisturizer that hydrates without leaving a smooth residue. Look for products with humectants such as hyaluronic acid and glycerin, which pull moisture from the environment and keep your skin soft without feeling heavy.
Clearly clean it, but don’t overdo it
With an increase in sweat and oil production, cleaning becomes even more important during the monsoon. Use a gentle, pH-balanced cleanser twice a day to remove frozen and excess oil. Avoid hard soap or overvashing, as they can take away the natural obstruction of the skin and cause dryness and irritation.
Never leave sunscreen
Cloudy sky can trick you thinking that you do not need sun protection, but UV rays enter through clouds and glass. Non-comedogenic sunscreen with a broad spectrum, SPF 30 or higher is necessary, even on rainy days. Gel-based formulas work best for oily or acne-prone skin in this season.
Keep acne and fungal infections in the bay
A mixture of sweat, humidity and dirt can create the right breeding ground for acne and fungal infections, especially in areas such as the back, chest and underarm. Wear breath, cotton clothes and shower after breathing in the rain. Using light exfolnts once or twice a week can help closure the pores and prevent brakeouts, but avoid abrasive scrubs that may disturb the skin.
Add an additional boost with skin biormodeling
Sometimes, topical products alone are not enough to maintain skin glow and perseverance, especially as we age. This is the place where advanced solutions like Profilo come.
Unlike traditional filler or cream, these solutions are a skin biormodeling treatment made of pure hyaluronic acid. They not only add volume or moisture, but also work by stimulating the natural production of collagen and elastin. This means better texture, elasticity and hydration from within.
Its unique formation spreads evenly under the skin, making it ideal for improving the tone and structure of the skin in the face, neck and even hands.
Hydration still matters
Do not let the rain become foolish. Hydration remains the key to the glowing skin. People drink less water during the monsoon, which can cause dull and dryness. Target 6 to 8 glasses of water daily. You can also add hydrating foods such as cucumbers, citrus fruits and watermelon to your diet for that extra glow.
Often avoid touching your face
With the increase in sweat and constantly wipe the face, the hands are often in contact with the face. This simple habit can transfer dirt and bacteria, deteriorating brakeouts or skin irritation. Keep the papers pressed to close excess oil without using your hands.
Think of it as the creation of a strong defense system that helps your skin to flourish, not just to survive, rain. By aligning your skincare with the demands of the season, you allow your skin to breathe, balance and bloom, no matter how unexpected it is in the sky.
