Skin care during monsoon

During monsoon, the humid and damp weather takes a toll on not only the skin but also eyes, so here's some advise on how small changes in the skin care routine can keep your skin glowing and eyes fresh.

Type of skins:

Oily Skin: Limit washing your face to two or three times a day. Avoid heavy cleansing creams. Scrub your face on a regular basis. Also, it is advised to use warm water while washing face as it dissolves skin oil better than lukewarm or cold water. One also use mud-pack. Homemade pack made with "Chane ka atta and raw milk" can help in keeping skin refreshing and glowing.

Dry Skin: A moisturizer increases the water content of the outer layers of the skin and gives it a soft, moist look and it is always advised one with dry skin opt for alcohol free toner. Also, one can apply glycerin and rose water mixture to keep skin soft.

Combination Skin: Since it combines both the oily and dry skin it should be treated as if it were two different types of skin. The dry area requires gentle cleansing and regular moisturizing. The oily part needs to be deeply cleansed and toned with regular scrubbing.

Besides, switch to cotton clothes as they allow your body to breathe. Allow damp hair to dry before you tie them again. To circumvent allergies from mosquito bites, wear full-sleeved clothes and use a mosquito repellent cream and head for air-conditioned rooms. Bathe twice a day to keep the problems at bay.
