Acne
If you have acne prone skin, summers could be the worst time for your skin. Your skin is producing excess oil and the sweat is only making matters worse thereby clogging your pores. For someone with acne prone skin, this is like a nightmare because clogged pores often imply acne.
Solution: This is when you need to include an acne fighting face wash in your skin care regime in addition to a gel-based cream. For a cleanser, we suggest using the Pond’s Pimple Clear Face Wash as a part of your go-to cleanser. Its Active Thymo-T essence works hard to stop pimples right from the beginning while you cleanse your face and get rid of all the bacteria and grime on it.
Sunburn
Did you know that the UV rays can cause major sunburns thereby increasing your risk of skin cancer? This is why caring for your skin during the summers is crucial to the health of your skin.
Solution: Wear a broad spectrum sunscreen all through the day! We suggest the Lakmé Sun Expert UV Lotion SPF 50 PA+++. This shields your skin against 97% UVB rays that can cause sunburns while the PA+++ saves your skin from UVA rays.
Body odour
The sweltering heat has several detrimental effects on the skin including body odour. Moreover, it only gets worse if you happen to wear fitted clothes that hug your skin tight.
Solution: This is when your skin is in dire need of a deo that arrests body odour. Make sure you get your hands on the Dove Whitening Original Deo Spray that gives you a 48 hour reliable protection. The good news is that it’s enriched with Vitamin E and fatty acids that help rejuvenate the skin and remove the dead cells over time.
Heat rashes
If you have overtly sensitive skin and are often out in the sun for long hours, skin rashes like prickly heat might take over your skin. The body starts heating up from inside and gets irritated on the outside.
Solution: When you’re suffering from prickly heat, your skin needs something soothing and cooling. Let the Vaseline Intensive Care Aloe Soothe Body Lotion offer you the help you need. This one has a non-sticky formula that contains pure aloe, stratys-3 multi-layer moisture, which deeply moisturises the skin without making the skin feel greasy.
Dry skin
Summers are when you’re intensely dehydrated—one of the biggest causes of dry skin. Moreover, air conditioning is yet again an added cause of dryness. What you need to do is keep drinking plenty of water to ensure that your body doesn’t lose salt.
Solution: Other than ensuring you keep your body hydrated from inside, you also need to make sure that you use a hydrating moisturiser that doesn’t feel heavy on the skin. We suggest using the Lakmé Absolute Skin Gloss Gel Crème that hydrates the skin deeply while lending it a moisturised finish all through the day. The bigger bonus? It’s absolutely lightweight so you don’t have to feel like you’re carrying the weight of a heavy moisturiser!
