🌧️ Introduction
Monsoon brings relief from the summer heat, but it also brings increased humidity, clogged pores, and fungal infections. If your skin is feeling sticky, dull, or suddenly breaking out—you’re not alone. At Aditi Skin & Hair Clinic, here’s how we recommend keeping your skin healthy, hydrated, and glowing all through the rainy season.
đź’§1. Cleanse Gently, But Thoroughly
Humidity increases sweat and oil production. Use a gentle, sulfate-free face wash twice a day to remove dirt and prevent breakouts without stripping your skin.
Recommended Ingredients: Salicylic acid, tea tree oil, or niacinamide.
🌬️ 2. Keep It Light — Skip Heavy Creams
Heavy moisturizers can clog pores. Opt for lightweight, non-comedogenic gels or serums instead.
Pro Tip: Look for moisturizers with hyaluronic acid or aloe vera for hydration without greasiness.
🦠3. Watch Out for Fungal Infections
Skin folds (underarms, groin, under the breast) are prone to fungal infections during monsoons. Always dry the area well after bathing and use an antifungal powder if prone to sweating.
🌞 4. Don’t Skip Sunscreen
Even on cloudy days, UV rays are harmful. Use a gel-based sunscreen (SPF 30+) that won’t clog your pores.
🧴 5. Exfoliate — But Only Once a Week
Excessive exfoliation can irritate already sensitive, damp skin. Stick to mild exfoliation (like glycolic acid or lactic acid peels) once a week to remove dead skin.
🌿 6. Go Natural—But Be Smart
Homemade remedies like turmeric or sandalwood are great, but test on a small patch first.
