As summer slowly but surely sweeps the city, be sure to adjust your skincare routine to adequately shield against harsh UV rays and combat excess oil brought about by the hotter, stickier weather. While you might need to swap out your creamy winter moisturiser for a lighter, gel-based alternative, be sure not to forgo the step altogether, and keep a soothing moisturiser on standby for overstressed, sun-sensitised skin.
