Monsoon season brings in a much awaited relief from the scorching heat but the sticky and humid weather brings in its own set of challenges and skin problems. This season can be unpredictable as sometimes it can be very sunny and sometimes it can be very rainy. This fluctuation of the weather can bring in a lot of skin related problems like breakouts, that are painful and can dull up your monsoon mood. But fear not, we are here to help you with some interesting and easy going strategies and tips that will keep your skin radiant and glowing all through the season.

Before jumping into the treatments, let's recall the preventive tips that you need to follow irrespective of what your skin type is!

1. Keep your skin clean

Wash your face twice a day- Morning and night, with a gentle cleanser to remove the excess oil, dirt and sweat. Hiamira’s Vitamin C and 24k Gold face wash are infused with powerful ingredients that extracts all the oil and sebum and gives you a refreshed and clean canvas.

Tip- Always pat dry your face using tissue paper. Using harsh face towels have bacteria in them and using them regularly can cause pimples to arise.

2. Hydrate your skin

It is essential to hydrate your skin with a moisturizer irrespective of what your skin type is. Opt for a lightweight gel based moisturizer which is best suitable for your skin.

Himaira’s Hydro Bomb Intense Hydration and Hydro Bomb 72h Hydration Moisturizer are infused with powerful ingredients like Green Tea Leaf Extract and Niacinamide that helps in controlling sebum production and reduces the formation of acne.

Tip- Never skip a moisturizer even if you are feeling oily or sweaty. Skipping a moisturizer leads to the formation of more acne and breakout and even dries out your skin.

3. Healthy Diet

A healthy diet plays an important role in making your skin healthy and glowing. Whatever you eat reflects on your skin. Include green vegetables, juicy fruits and nuts in your diet as they maintain the skin’s health.
Tip- Avoid oily junk food. Consumption of sugary and oily food accelerates the formation of acne on the skin and can worsen it.

4. Take good care of yourself

This point might be different depending on person to person but the basic criteria is to be in a clean and sanitary environment. Changing pillowcases and towel frequently, sanitizing your phone, not touching the face with dirty hands, etc can help prevent breakouts.

Some of the treatments that you can include in your daily skincare routine if you are breaking out are: 

1. Exfoliation

Use mild exfoliators once or twice a week to remove dead skin cells and prevent clogged pores. When sebum and dirt gets clogged in the pores, they result in the formation of acne and pimples. Use Himaira’s Vitamin C Scrub. It is a gel based scrub with gentle exfoliating particles. It is packed with the goodness of lemon peel and orange peel extract and makes your skin glowing and soft.
Tip- Always use a mask after exfoliating your face. Himaira’s Vitamin C Mask deeply secretes the oil from the skin, making it more clear and firm.

2. Targeted treatments

Use a serum after you tone your face. A serum helps in targeting the specific skin issue that you might have. Himaira’s Vitamin C Serum works on diminishing the hyperpigmentation on your skin. It is also enriched with Hyaluronic Acid that hydrates the skin while treating all the acne scars and dullness.
Tip- Always incorporate Vitamin C Serum into your morning routine and make sure to use sunscreen afterwards to get great results.

3. Natural Remedies

Acne and breakouts should always be treated with care and proper guidance. You can always opt for the natural remedies that are easily available in the market or your own kitchen.
Tip- Cut an Aloe Vera leaf and directly apply on your skin. Leave the aloe vera gel for 10-15 minutes and then rinse. Aloe vera cools down the skin and also provides a soothing effect on the inflated areas which helps in reducing the acne and breakouts.

By following the treatments and making some lifestyle adjustments, you can easily manage and reduce the monsoon breakouts. Always remember that consistency is key so always stick to the basic skincare regime that works best for you.
