Following right summer skincare tips is essential because summers in India are brutal, frequently surpassing 40 degrees Celsius. The exposure to the sun coupled with humidity is no friend to your skin. Here is what the season does to it:
Overproduction of Oil: Increased temperatures lead to an increase in oil production, which causes the skin to be extremely greasy and often results in pimples.
Dehydration along with dry skin: Surprisingly, even oily skin seems to lose its internal moisture. A combination of sweating with extreme heat leads to loss of moisture, which severely results in dullness and flakiness.
Damaging effects of sun: Though a sun-kissed glow can be admired as a reflection of time spent outdoors, it is important to remember that prolonged exposure to sunlight can impact skin health by accelerating the breakdown of collagen among other things. If you are a sun lover but still wish to protect your skin, smart sun care will help you strike a balance between the two.
Skin clogged pores: Sweat, dirt, and bacteria can block pores and hair follicles, leading to irritation and occurrence of acne.
Acne: During warmer periods of time, the sensitivity of the skin seems to amplify along with red blotches, inflammation combined with increasing oxidative stress, especially for soft and delicate skin.
