Staying Indoors? Here’s 5 Skincare Tips

By Ysabel Vitangcol on July 24, 2024

Rain or shine, skincare is for all seasons. While this might seem like a break for your skin from the harsh outdoor elements, indoor environments come with their own set of challenges. Here are some essential skincare tips to keep your skin healthy and glowing.

Maintain Proper Hydration

Indoor heating systems and dry air can dehydrate your skin, leading to dullness and flakiness. Make sure to drink plenty of water throughout the day. Using a humidifier can also help maintain the moisture level in the air, preventing your skin from becoming dry.

Don’t Skip The Sunscreen!

It might be tempting to forgo sunscreen on a rainy day, but UV rays can still penetrate through windows. Apply a broad-spectrum sunscreen with at least SPF 30 to protect your skin from harmful rays. This is crucial even if you’re staying indoors all day.

Lessen your UV exposure – take a break from your gadgets

Did you know that UV exposure does not only come from the sun? Sitting in front of your computer or using your smart devices will not just cause eye strain and fatigue, but can also lead to dark circles and puffiness under your eyes. Pause and take a break throughout the day to give the rest it needs!

Nourish from within

Great skin goes beyond skincare and treatments. It also comes with good nutrition! In as much as it is tempting to binge eat while indoors, eat a balanced diet rich in fruits, vegetables, lean proteins, and healthy fats. Foods high in antioxidants, like berries and leafy greens, can help combat skin damage. Reducing your intake of sweets and refined carbs will be beneficial too, which can contribute to breakouts and dull skin.
