Skin Care

·       Good and effective cleansing using a soap free cleanser is recommended. You could also use a gentle scrub (with uniform mild beads) once a day

·       Cleansing should be followed by toning using an alcohol free toner, since increased humidity could open up your pores

·       Use a sunscreen even on cloudy days

·       Use a light lotion-based moisturizer or serum which will gently rehydrate your skin and also brighten it up

·       Avoid heavy makeup and use waterproof make up when necessary

·       Remember to nourish your skin from the inside too - eat salads blanched in boiling water to disinfect them, vegetable soup which will keep you warm and healthy and drink the usual 8-10 glasses of water. Your skin is always thirstier than you are!
