Not So Secret: Tips to a Glowy Healthy Skin on this Rainy Season

Just a simple care routine for your healthy skin during this rainy season. Alter your daily lifestyle and select the essential skin care products for your skin’s ultimate protection and care.

            Starting off the new season, marks the official start of Thailand’s stormy & rainy season. Most people may find this is one of their favorite seasons as it seems to be not as hot as the previous season, summer, when the heat goes super high and causes skin damage easily.  But did you know ? Even though rain might give cooler temperature and more comfortable touch to your skin, it is also sticky and does cause skin damage. The reason for this is high temperature inversion during the rainy season. Sometimes it feels hot and sometimes it feels a bit cold and humid. And with those dirt, dust, and other pollutants, our skin cannot endure the quick changes and that’s why many skin problems follow.

Dry and Dehydrated Skin

            Ever wonder why our skin gets dehydrated during the rainy season? The high humidity causes the evaporation of skin’s moisture and oil, and results in skin dehydration. Does anyone love showering in hot tubs? That speeds up skin dehydration as well! When your skin gets super dehydrated, it appears rough and flaky.

Overly Shine, Acnes, and Blackheads

            After dehydration, your skin produces excess oil. And with dirt and dust that come along with the rain, your unavoidable concerns are those oiliness and clogged pores which cause comedones, blackheads, or inflammatory acnes. In some cases, they might have inflamed skin, redness, or skin irritation.

Dull skin, Melasma, and freckles 

            Without any obvious signs, your skin can gradually become dulled. Many people might not take sunscreen as an essential item during the rainy season—don’t let cloudy skies fool you! Rain, wind, and cold weather do not mean that your skin is protected from UV rays. In fact, our skin is constantly damaged from computer screens, smart phones, or light bulbs.

            Problems always come with solutions! Don’t worry— King Power Online has some not-so-secret tips for you! With just a few habit changes, your skin is magically turned radiant and healthy.

Gentle Care for your Facial Skin

            Start with deep cleansing your face using the Double Cleansing Technique, also known as the two- step cleanse. First, apply cleansing oil or balm to remove makeup residue and other pollutants. Then, follow with a facial cleanser to thoroughly wash away unwanted stuff.
 

Always Put on Sunscreen

            Harmful UV rays are everywhere—whether it’s outdoors or indoors. A good sunscreen should protect your skin against UVA, UVB, and infrared rays and contain at least SPF 30 with PA+++ or PA++++. Apply all over your exposed areas in an appropriate amount. (about 2 finger joints in length)
 

Drink Clear Water and Avoid Lukewarm Water for Facial Cleansing

            Drink plenty of fresh water to replace moisture lost due to humidity, which can lead to dry and rough skin, enlarged pores, and excess oil—these cause acne and irritation.
 

Select a Lightweight Skin Care Formula with Great Absorption

            Rich and intense formulas aren't as comfortable as the lightweight ones, especially in our hot and humid weather during the rainy season. Sweat can clog your pores and that could lead to many skin problems.
 

            Apart from lightweight formulas, selecting targeted skincare products is also a must! King Power Online is pleased to introduce the popular skin care items that feature superb protection, treatment, and care, along with addressing your skin concerns daily. Choose the product that suits your skin for long-term healthiness!

For dehydrated skin, we recommend CLINIQUE Moisture Surge 100H Auto-Replenishing Hydrator and FRESH Rose Deep Hydration Face Cream. These are facial treatments with a lightweight texture. They provide moisture to the skin while strengthening it to enhance moisture retention.

For irritated and sensitive skin with acne, dark spots, and redness caused by acne and and for those who want to prevent future breakouts, LA ROCHE-POSAY Effaclar Duo (+)  is another skin care we recommend. It contains soothing properties with an essential Salicylic acid ingredient, for excellent acne treatment.

LA ROCHE-POSAY Effaclar Duo (+)

Dull and aging skin, with wrinkles, fine lines, melasma, freckles, and other imperfections can be improved with target treatments like  ESTÉE LAUDER Advanced Night Repair Synchronized Multi-Recovery Complex and  CLARINS Double Serum. These products offer restorative and nourishing benefits for your youthful radiance and minimize those aging lines. 
 

Take care of yourself and run away from any activities that could potentially damage your skin, find a perfect skin care product that suits you best. Every little detail always counts!
