Delhi's monsoon humidity brings its own set of skin challenges — here's how to adjust your routine to avoid breakouts and fungal concerns.
Common Monsoon Skin Issues in Delhi
Increased humidity often leads to excess oil production, clogged pores, fungal infections in skin folds, and a higher risk of breakouts compared to drier months.
Adjusting Your Cleansing Routine
Switch to a gel-based, oil-free cleanser during monsoon months, and consider cleansing twice daily if you notice increased oiliness or sweating.
Product Swaps Worth Making
- Lightweight, gel-based moisturisers instead of heavy creams
- Oil-free, non-comedogenic sunscreen
- Anti-fungal powder for skin folds prone to moisture buildup
- Clay or charcoal masks once a week for deep cleansing
When to See a Dermatologist
Persistent fungal infections, sudden breakout flare-ups, or skin that doesn't respond to routine adjustments are good reasons to book a proper skin consultation rather than continuing to self-treat.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is sunscreen still necessary during monsoon?
Yes, UV rays penetrate cloud cover, so daily SPF remains important even on overcast days.
Why do I break out more during monsoon?
Increased humidity and sweat can clog pores more easily, especially if your regular moisturiser is too heavy for the season.
