Hot weather can cause men’s skin problems if not properly maintained and protected.
1. Skin care when exercising: During hot weather, the body sweat a lot to cool down and cool off. Sweat, bacteria on machines, and gym equipment are potentially at risk of acne or folliculitis. Men should avoid being naked to limit contact between skin and surfaces in the gym. Instead, wear loose, airy clothes, and cover the benches with a towel when lifting weights. You should take a shower, change into new clothes after every gym session. Sweat rubbed with clothing easily causes folliculitis, creating conditions for acne on the chest and back to develop.

Exposure to the sun in an unprotected condition makes the skin more susceptible to sunburn and blistering. On the other hand, UV rays from the sun are also the leading cause of aging, according to the report Skin Cancer . Wrinkles, brown spots may appear earlier before turning 30. Choose a broad-spectrum sunscreen that helps to repel the harmful effects of UVA and UVB rays. Image: Wikipedia. 3. Clean skin morning and night: Hot sun, high temperature weather makes men’s facial skin produce a lot of excess oil. In addition, during the day, the skin is also exposed to a lot of dust, impurities from the environment. Use a gentle cleanser to remove pore-clogging agents. This habit helps the boys have healthy glowing skin, less acne. Image: Getty. 4. Don’t forget to exfoliate: Over time, dead cells accumulate in the top layer of the skin. If not removed, they will result in rough, dull skin on the face. In addition, dead skin, sebum and dirt create an environment that stimulates acne-causing bacteria to grow. Exfoliate 2-3 times a week if your skin condition is normal. Maintain once a week when skin is easily irritated or sensitive. Image: Hims. 5. Absorb excess oil on the face: Excess oil makes the shiny skin look less aesthetic. On the other hand, it also contributes to clog pores. Use a soft, odorless tissue or a special oil absorbent paper to keep your face clear. Image: Jorgedlrio. 6. Don’t skip moisturizer: Like the body, skin needs water to maintain a healthy state. Even if you have oily, blemish-prone skin, skin care with moisturizer is still essential. The cream not only replenishes moisture, but also promotes effective skin recovery and regeneration. At that time, lesions such as acne and blemishes will quickly disappear. Image: Getty, Magnus Cramer. 7. Regularly replenish water: During the hot season, the body and skin are easily dehydrated. Water enhances the skin’s hydration, reducing excessive oil production. Image: TheUnstitchd. 8. Protect skin when traveling outdoors during the day: In addition to using broad spectrum sunscreen, men should also wear a hat and sunglasses when out in the sun. Sunglasses cover sensitive skin and eyes and limit squint to prevent wrinkles. Meanwhile, the hat protects the hair from damage by UV rays, the high heat from the sun. Image: Pexels.
