1. Never miss a sunscreen

Use a sunblock irrespective of the season as the sun is pretty much still there. Sunblock is not just used for tanning but the sun can actually age your skin which can be harmful to you. So, you should use a sunblock more in terms of anti-ageing as opposed to preventing your tan.

2. Moisturise

Washing your face two times, in the morning and at night is essential. Moisturise your face immediately after a wash irrespective if you have oily or dry skin. If you have oily skin then use a moisturiser that is milder but does not miss it.
