Add anti-pollution skincare products to your routine to prevent the haze from ageing skin prematurely
By Nicole-Marie Ng
Gone are the days where the haze only makes its way to Singapore for one month a year. Even during Singapore's wet season, we've been catching whiffs of the haze and the PSI has been inching up towards the unhealthy level.
While many of us have equipped ourselves with N95 masks and air purifiers, it's not just our lungs that we need to protect. Pollutants like the haze causes our skin to age prematurely as they generate free radicals and inflammation. Long-term exposure to such pollution damages the skin's defence barrier and also produces more wrinkles.
To prevent this from happening, it's time to start incorporating anti-pollution skincare products to your daily skincare routine. Here are some of our favourites.
4. Caudalie Instant Detox Mask, $39
True to its name, the Caudalie Instant Detox Mask instantly brings life back to dull skin. The pink clay mask reaches deep within pores to remove impurities left by pollutants in order to clarify skin. The mask also contains coffee and papaya enzymes to give skin beautiful radiance.
Available from Sephora.
