Welcome to Skin Insights by YSBB. As the temperature rises, air conditioning becomes a daily necessity. But while the cool breeze brings comfort, it may be quietly stressing your skin. Today, let’s explore how air conditioning affects your skin—and what you can do to protect it. 1. Why Does AC Air Dry Out the Skin? When the AC runs, both the temperature and humidity levels in the room drop. This leads to faster evaporation of moisture from the skin. If cold air hits your face directly, skin temperature drops, blood circulation slows, and sebum secretion decreases. This chain reaction weakens the skin barrier and makes your skin more prone to dryness and irritation—especially for those with already dry or sensitive skin. 2.

- Dry Skin: Go for rich creams or balm-type formulas with strong hydration - Sensitive Skin: Look for fragrance-free, dye-free, and alcohol-free formulas - Atopic or Eczema-prone Skin: Use barrier-repair creams with high ceramide content Dermatologist Advice We Always Share
- Price is less important than ingredients and how well it suits your skin
- Consistency matters: apply generously, regularly, and early — ideally within 3 minutes after washing - Twice a day is ideal — morning and evening - Full-body application isn’t necessary unless your skin is very dry — just target areas that feel tight or flaky Final Thoughts The best moisturizer isn’t about brand hype — it’s about whether it fits your skin’s needs and whether you’ll use it often enough.
