Normal Skin

FACE Your complexion will get oilier when it's hot, and you may suffer more frequent breakouts. To control this, switch to a cleanser that's less creamy than the one you use in the fall and winter, and add a toner with alcohol or witch hazel to your regimen. Your daily moisturizer should be non-greasy and ideally contain sun protection. Regular exfoliation can also minimize oiliness and breakouts; David Green, M.D., a clinical assistant professor of dermatology at Howard University in Washington, DC, recommends gently using a Buff Puff once a day as you cleanse. Try Bioré Foaming Liquid Cleanser, Kinara re-Balancing Tonic, and Olay Total Effects 7x UVA + UVB Protection.
