Monsoon is the time where your skin can behave strangely and often becomes unstable; suddenly it's gets oily or becomes dry and dehydrated. You must not stop taking care of your skin thinking that the blazing sun would no more harm your skin. The change in weather has a direct impact on the skin, which makes a good maintenance regime very important. So, modify your skin and hair care regime as per the changing weather.

Use a good soap-free cleanser. You could also use a gentle scrub once a day to remove all the dust.

Cleansing should be followed by toning using an alcohol-free toner. This is helpful since increased humidity could open up your pores.

The clouds may hide the sun, but the sun and its rays are still there. So, to protect your skin from tanning from harmful ultraviolet rays, using a sunscreen is important.

Use a light lotion-based moisturiser or serum, which will gently rehydrate your skin and also brighten it up. Avoid using oily moisturisers as they tend to mix up with rain water and make you feel very sticky.

Avoid heavy makeup and use waterproof make up when necessary

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.

Boots can hold water for a longer duration, creating a soggy environment for your feet. So, avoid wearing boots.

Wash your feet and then dry them properly whenever they get wet due to rains

Avoid excess application of styling products, as this could make your hair very greasy and increased humidity could make them look worse.

Do not tie-up wet hair

Make sure your diet has hair friendly foods including milk and milk products, nuts, soya products
