Help! Weather is Wrecking My Skin! - Tips on What to Do

Ever notice how your skin freaks out when the weather changes? You're not alone!Here are some culprits and what you can do:

The Culprits:

  • Wind: This blustery beast steals your skin's natural oils, leaving it dry and chapped. Scarf up, wear clothing that covers the skin, and keep a lightweight moisturizer handy so you can apply before, during, and after exposure. Keep that skin hydrated!
  • Sun: Sunburns, wrinkles, and even skin cancer – yikes! Shield yourself with SPF 30 or higher sunscreen, every single day. (Don't forget to reapply every 2 hours when outdoors and after you sweat or get done swimming)
  • Cold: Brrr! Cold weather sucks the moisture right out of your skin. Combat flakiness with rich moisturizers and hydration creams. Don't forget to choose one that is right for your skin type and reapply as often as needed.
  • Rain: Rainy days often mean higher humidity, which can lead to breakouts. Keep your pores clean and skin balanced to avoid blemishes. Read: Adopt a daily skincare routine. 👍
  • Heat: Hot, humid weather makes you sweat, which can clog pores and trigger acne. Just like the previous culprit, ensure you have a solid skincare routine that keeps your pores clean and your skin happy. Also, if you're prone to a lot of sweating, try lightweight, oil-free products to keep your skin breathing.
  • Weather Whiplash: Going from bone-dry to rainforest-humid in a flash? Your skin gets confused and throws a tantrum. One more time....for the people in the back: Stick to a consistent skincare routine to help it adjust.

Weatherproofing your skin is key! By understanding how these elements affect your skin, you can choose the right products and habits to keep your skin happy and healthy, no matter what Mother Nature throws your way.
