Be a warrior against heat to rid your melasma
September 20th, 2008
You protect your skin with hats and sunblock, but it’s just not enough. Every summer you hide from the daytime, but your melasma always comes back with a vengeance. Sound familiar? That’s because it’s not just the sun and hormones that cause melasma to flare; it’s the heat too.
It can be difficult to avoid warm temperatures, but there are a few things you can do to keep your skin cool and your melasma in check.
1. Keep a hand held fan with you in your bag. When you step into a hot car, for example, pull out the fan and cool yoursel.
2. Wear a big white hat and when you are outdoors and feeling warm, use the hat flap as a little mini air conditioner.
3. Place a cool rag on your face when you are indoors relaxing. Don’t forget to reapply the sunscreen if you plan to go back outside. Always, always, always wear sunscreen.
