After the scorching summer heat, you cannot stop getting yourself
underneath the first few drops of rain. Even
though it is an open
invitation for various skin infections,
the increased humidity, sky-riding dust and pollution can really push you on the back foot forcing you to stay
indoors. Now, how to protect your skin this rainy season?
Natural Ways to Protect Skin Damage
- Cleansing allows
your skin to breathe by washing away the impurities like dirt and excess
oil from your skin surface. Do not use antifungal lotion or cream or soaps
with perfumes.
- Toning your
face with a non-alcoholic toner can help you tighten up your skin pores.
To prevent unwanted acne and skin infections, apply it before going to bed
and in the morning after waking up.
- Moisturizing is
useful to keep your skin well hydrated.
- Let avoiding heavy makeup be your mantra this rainy season. Use light
waterproof makeup instead and always pat it dry as any kind of friction can
cause hyper-pigmentation.
- Keeping the skin well nourished by eating salads can be a good move to provide your skin with
essential vitamins and nutrients to keep it healthy and glowing.
- Proper hydration with at least 8-10 glasses per day, can keep your skin glowing
and even eliminate any pollutants that went deep inside the skin.
- Wearing a sunscreen is always necessary when you go out even on cloudy days to
protect it from harmful UV radiation.
- Don’t hesitate to follow it up with a skin specialist even for slightest of
skin conditions such as swelling or irritation.
