The monsoon season might offer you relief from the scorching summer heat. But trust us, it’s definitely not an excellent  season for your skin.

The humidity levels rise during monsoon and therefore the weather becomes unpredictable which makes it difficult for your skin to adjust. Here are some ways to make your skin look its best for your time away.

Exfoliate-

We imagine you have already got a solid skincare routine, which probably includes exfoliating. If it doesn’t, it’s time to start out. Now’s a great time to rid yourself of all that dull skin. Having a good scrub will leave your skin with a glow and allow it to be ready for moisturizer.

Use sunscreen-

 Many people avoid using sunscreen during the monsoons since the sun is hidden during this time, which may be a big skin care mistake. Sunscreen should be applied throughout the year.

Use a clay mask-

The extreme humidity during the monsoon season can cause itching and oiliness on your skin.

A clay mask is extremely effective in controlling excess oil, reducing acne, and protecting your skin from toxins. You can use a clay mask twice a week safely. Choose one containing natural and antibacterial ingredients like aloe vera or green tea for added benefits.

Cut down on makeup- 

Let your pores breathe. This is often not the time to go with heavy make-up. An excessive amount of makeup clogs pores and leaves the skin dull.

Diet and Supplementation– 

It is very important to keep a check on immunity-boosting during this season. There are certain nutraceuticals like glutathione, it’s an antioxidant in plants, animals, fungi, and a few bacteria. Glutathione has the power to prevent damage to important cellular components caused by reactive oxygen species such as free radicals, peroxides, lipid peroxides, and heavy metals.  It’s a powerful antioxidant that’s made in the body’s cells. Its level decreases as a  result of aging, stress, and toxin exposure. Boosting glutathione may provide many health benefits, including the reduction of oxidative stress. It also helps in decreasing the melanin in your skin, reduces wrinkles, and increases skin elasticity.
