1. Skipping sunscreen because it is cloudy
UV passes through clouds. Skipping SPF in the rains still causes tanning, dark spots and aging. Use a water-resistant SPF50.
2. Skipping moisturiser because skin feels oily
Oily-and-dehydrated skin makes *more* oil. Use a light, oil-free gel — see which moisturiser.
3. Over-washing the face
Washing 5–6 times a day strips the barrier and triggers rebound oil. Twice a day with a gentle cleanser is enough.
4. Using heavy creams and oils
In humidity they clog pores and can feed fungal acne. Switch to gels.
5. Sitting in wet or sweaty clothes
Damp fabric + friction breeds fungal folliculitis. Change and dry off fast.
6. Touching your face / popping bumps
Sweaty hands transfer dirt and bacteria; popping spreads it and scars. See post-acne marks.
7. Not letting rain/flood water off your skin
Dhaka flood water is dirty. Rinse exposed skin and feet — see rain & flood-water skin care.
Do this instead
Follow the light, protective monsoon routine: gentle cleanse, niacinamide, light gel moisturiser, sunscreen, and stay dry.
