What it is
Humidity is a measure of water vapor in the air. Humidity for skin health can be a bit of a balancing act, as humidity levels significantly affect the skin’s condition.
How it works in skincare
High humidity can lead to increased oil production and clogged pores, making lightweight, non-comedogenic products essential.
Low humidity, on the other hand, can dry out the skin, causing flakiness and irritation.
Adjusting your routine to include hydrating serums or mattifying products based on the climate ensures your skin stays balanced and healthy. Also see advice on seasonal skincare.
