The monsoon season cools us down with refreshing rains, but it also raises humidity and moisture, which can mess with our skin. More people find themselves fighting acne breakouts during this season struggling to keep their skin clear and healthy. , Ayurveda provides proven remedies to maintain radiant and acne-free skin throughout the damp monsoon months.
Why Acne Breakouts Happen More Often During Monsoon
Higher Humidity: The monsoon brings high humidity that makes our skin create too much sebum (oil). This oil mixes with sweat, which can block pores and cause acne breakouts.
Bacterial Growth: Bacteria and fungi find the moist environment perfect for growth. They can attack the skin's surface leading to infections and inflammation that show up as acne.
Dietary Changes: During the rainy season, people often want to eat fried and spicy foods. This can mess up the digestive system and cause an imbalance in the body often shown on the skin.
Stress and Lifestyle: Weather changes and fewer chances to go outside can make stress levels go up and mess up daily routines. Since stress can trigger acne, it's important to keep it under control.
