Summer Skincare: Protecting Your Skin in Indian Heat
By Dr. Meenu Sethi
India's summers bring intense heat, humidity, and UV radiation that can wreak havoc on your skin. Here's your comprehensive guide to summer skincare.
Sunscreen is Non-Negotiable
Apply a broad-spectrum SPF 50+ sunscreen every 2-3 hours when outdoors. Look for PA++++ rating for UVA protection.
Hydration Inside and Out
Drink at least 3 litres of water daily. Use lightweight, water-based moisturizers that don't clog pores.
Adjust Your Routine
Switch to gel-based cleansers, lightweight serums, and oil-free moisturizers. Add antioxidant serums with Vitamin C for photoprotection.
Post-Sun Care
Use aloe vera or calamine for sun-exposed skin. Consider a soothing face mask weekly.
