Indian skin doesn’t face just one climate — it faces four extreme seasons.
From harsh summers and humid monsoons to dry winters and transitional weather, each season affects your skin differently.
Using the same skincare routine all year is one of the biggest reasons Indians struggle with acne, tanning, pigmentation, dullness, and dryness.
Here’s the ultimate season-by-season skincare routine for Indian skin, designed to keep your skin healthy, balanced, and glowing all year round.
🇮🇳 Why Indian Skin Needs Seasonal Skincare
Indian climate is unique because of:
-
High UV exposure most of the year
-
Extreme heat & humidity
-
Dry, cold winters (especially North India)
-
High pollution
-
Hard water in many regions
-
Melanin-rich skin prone to pigmentation
Your skincare needs to adapt with the season.
