During Ramadan, it’s important to maintain a skincare routine that focuses on hydration, calming, and using gentle products. Here are some tips to keep your skin healthy and glowing: Hydration: Drink plenty of water during Suhoor and Iftar to stay hydrated. This helps maintain your skin’s moisture levels throughout the day. Avoid drinks which contain a lot of processed sugar Use a hydrating moisturiser with ingredients like hyaluronic acid, ceremides or glycerin after cleansing to lock in moisture. We love the Dermalogica Calm Water Gel and also the Circular Hydration Serum Calming Skincare: Avoid strong exfoliators or strong active ingredients (like retinol or AHAs) during the day, as fasting can make the skin more sensitive. Opt for gentle cleansers, soothing masks, and calming ingredients like aloe vera, chamomile, or calendula. Less Actives: Reduce the use of potent actives like Vitamin C, retinol, or benzoyl peroxide during Ramadan to prevent irritation, due to the lack of water and food for many hours which  can lead to the skin feeling drier. Stay Away from Oily & Sugary Foods: Oily and sugary foods can trigger breakouts and inflammation, so aim for a balanced diet with plenty of fruits, vegetables, and healthy fats. Focus on eating foods that are rich in antioxidants, like berries, nuts, and leafy greens, to support your skin from the inside out. Rest and Sleep: Adequate sleep is essential during Ramadan to allow your skin to repair and rejuvenate. Lack of sleep can lead to dull skin and dark circles. I know this is probably the hardest step to do as needing to wake before sunrise can disturb the sleep pattern. Sun Protection: Apply sunscreen when going out during the day to protect your skin from UV damage. Opt for a gentle, non-comedogenic sunscreen. this is actually an all year around tip – sun rays are the biggest cause of skin ageing.  These tips should help keep your skin healthy, hydrated, and calm throughout the month of Ramadan.
