Skin Care Tips

Do Not Wash Your Face Frequently

Just because you got wet in rain, it doesn't mean that washing your face continuously will clean the dirt on the skin. In fact, it will make your skin drier. Make sure that you always dab the water with a clean cloth rather than vigorously wiping it off.

Moisturise, Moisturise And Moisturise

This is one of the key tips to protect your skin during the monsoon season as your skin is more prone to become dry during this season. It can also make your skin itchy and difficult to manage. So the only way you can protect your skin is by moisturising it at regular intervals.

Use Sheet Masks

Along with moisturisation using a sheet mask also protects your skin. Use a mask that has moisturising properties before going to bed. Apply some moisturiser or lotion and place a sheet mask on top of it. Smooth and damage free skin is all yours.

Hair Care Tips

Rinse It The Right Away!

A major mistake that we all make when we come back home after getting drenched in rain is taking a shower in cold water. This will not remove all those pollutants and dirt is accumulated on the hair. It is recommended to take a shower in hot water to get rid of all the dirt.

You can make an easy DIY hair rinse to wash your hair. Take a handful of neem leaves and boil it in water. Drain it and use this solution to rinse your hair.

Oil Your Hair

After you get back home before you go to take a shower, massage some oil on your scalp. This will help in removing the dirt from hair.

Dry It Well

Do not forget to dry your hair well after taking a bath. Failing to do so will invite bacteria which will damage your hair and scalp. Let your hair dry naturally. If you are in a hurry you can use a blow dryer but make sure that you put it in the lowest mode so that overheat doesn't cause any further damage.
