Best face serum for oily skin plus dark spots in summer use
In Indian summers, heat, humidity, sweat and strong sun make oily skin shinier, clog pores more easily, and deepen existing dark spots . For oily, spot-prone skin , look for serums with proven actives like niacinamide, salicylic acid, azelaic acid, vitamin C or gentle retinoids in a light, water or gel base. Choose formulas labelled non-comedogenic and ideally fragrance-free, and avoid layering too many strong acids or peels in hot weather. Keep routines short: gentle cleanser, targeted serum, light moisturiser and generous sunscreen in the morning, with one strong active serum at night.
