6. Humidity can make you sweat and lose water and salt so make sure you drink enough water, otherwise the skin gets dull and pale.
7. Keep your SCALP clean as well. Wash your hair thrice a week or even daily if the need be. Oily/dirty scalp leads to various fungal infections and dandruff which affects the facial skin as well.
