summer routine is basically half what it used to be

Honestly humidity does the most damage to my routine because I kept layering the same stuff as winter and my skin was just... not happy. Congested, a bit dull, that weird combo-oily thing happening by midday. So I stripped it right back. Lighter cleanser, skip the heavy moisturiser, just a thin hydrating toner and SPF. That's it for AM. I'm not a dermatologist but I genuinely think in summer the skin doesn't need as much — it's already producing more of its own stuff. The one thing I kept is my collagen, that's non-negotiable. PM I'll do a proper routine but mornings are dead simple now and my skin's been so much calmer for it.

curious whether sweating a lot from training makes the congestion worse for you or actually helps flush it out
