summer has completely wrecked my skin routine

Honestly I didn't realise how much my skin had adapted to grey London weather until we actually got a proper hot week. Suddenly everything felt wrong — my usual moisturiser was too heavy, my face was weirdly oily by midday, and I had that tight congested feeling that means my skin is just... confused. I've been trying to simplify. Less product, more hydration from the inside. I've been mixing collagen into cold drinks instead of hot ones which sounds obvious but it took me an embarrassingly long time to figure out. Skin-wise I genuinely feel less dull but to be fair I also started sleeping with a fan so who knows what's actually doing what. The whole routine needs rethinking when the temperature shifts — I just hadn't expected it to matter this much.

same thing happened to me last July, took me weeks to figure out my moisturiser was just too much for the heat

took me ages too, kept thinking something else was wrong before I realised it was just the moisturiser
