Changing your skincare routine to match the season and weather can help keep your skin healthy and comfortable. Here are some pointers: Summer: Use a mild, oil-free moisturiser. Use SPF 30+ sunscreen every day. Think about using a gel-based cleaner. Apply hydrating masks as needed. Winter: Use a richer, thicker moisturiser. Avoid taking hot showers. Use an indoor humidifier. Apply lip balm to protect your lips. Transitional Seasons: Adapt your routine gradually. Exfoliate your skin and utilise antioxidants. Continue to apply sunscreen. Consider barrier creams in extreme temperatures. Stay hydrated. Stay away from allergens and strong scents. Tailor your routine to your skin type (oily, dry, combination, sensitive). If you have skin concerns, see a dermatologist for personalised advice.

To adapt your skincare routine to the seasons and temperatures, use lighter, oil-free products in hot weather, focusing on sunscreen and hydration. In cold weather, switch to richer moisturizers, consider a humidifier, and continue sunscreen use. Year-round, prioritize gentle cleansing, hydration from within, and patch testing new products. Customizing your skincare routine can help maintain healthy skin throughout changing climates, but consult a dermatologist for personalized guidance based on your skin type and concerns.
