Living in the UAE’s perpetually hot climate combined with air-conditioning is bound to take a toll on your skin. Constant exposure to air-conditioning can literally suck out the moisture and natural lubricants from your pores. This lack of natural hydration not only leaves your skin feeling dull, flaky, and even itchy, but it also poses a higher risk of sun damage. While it is impossible to stay out of air-conditioning when you live in the Middle East, nourishing your skin with potent hydrators can help you maintain skin’s health.
