Many times, the warm weather can cause your skin to be oily and some people take this as “I don’t need moisturizer,” which is wrong. The warm weather increases sebum production, which is what the oily substance on your skin is called. Even though the warm weather increases sebum production, you still need to moisturize to keep your skin looking healthy and protect your skin from the harmful UV rays.

Dry or Humid Heat?
When choosing your moisturizer, the type of weather you deal with during the warm months matters. If you’re in a drier climate, you will need richer moisturizer and if you’re in a more humid climate, you need lighter products.
Go Lightweight
When choosing a moisturizer for the summer, most women go for the lightweight moisturizers. These are moisturizers are water based, very light, and still make your skin feel hydrated without the heaviness.
Zinc Oxide
This is a very popular ingredient found in lighter moisturizers. Zinc oxide mineral sunscreens give you the best sun protection, but they also help prevent wrinkles, prevent dark spots, and sun spots.
Wheat and Soy Proteins
If you have combination skin, you know there are spots on your face that don’t always get the moisture they need. Look for green moisturizers that have wheat and soy proteins, which add moisture to dry spots.
