10 Skincare must-haves to save your skin from the office air-con
Say goodbye to dry and flaky skin with this ultimate list of moisturisers.
In sweltering Southeast Asia, air-conditioning is undoubtedly essential to daily life these days. Wherever you go, be it your favourite swanky shopping mall, your office building, the busy train, or your neighbourhood gym, you are bound to endure chilling blasts of air. While the cool temperature from air-conditioning units are a welcome respite from the outside heat, it is important to note that sitting in an air-conditioned room for long periods of time can be damaging to your skin.
If you already suffer from sensitive skin conditions such as rosacea, psoriasis or eczema, air-conditioning can aggravate and worsen the problem because of its harsh drying effects. Even those who don’t have any of these conditions may find themselves with flaking skin and a dull complexion due to prolonged dehydration from the dry air.
Fortunately, there are many products out there capable of forming a protective barrier between your skin and the harsh air-conditioning. We’ve curated a list of our favourite moisturising must-haves to keep on your office desk, all bound to keep your skin supple and hydrated throughout the day.
