summer skin is a different beast tbh

Right so I've spent the last few weeks realising my winter routine is completely useless now. Heavy moisturiser that I swore by from October to April? Sitting on my face like a wet blanket in this heat. Took me an embarrassingly long time to notice that was the problem. Basically swapped to something lighter — gel texture rather than cream — and it's made a difference. Also finally accepted that I need SPF that doesn't make me look like I've been laminated. Still working on finding the one for that. The other thing I've noticed is I need to drink a lot more than I think I do. Sounds obvious. And yet. My flask of matcha at my desk is doing some work but I've had to actually add a proper water bottle to the rotation which feels like admin I didn't ask for. Summer skin is genuinely a different project. Same routine as January just doesn't cut it.
