This month they talk about the ingredients to look for in the best SPF products that will protect you from the sun without clogging your pores. They debate whether there actually is a healthy amount of sun exposure, delving into its long-term impacts. They also discuss the impact of excessive sweating, looking into heat rash and other common side effects as well as the best anti-perspirants to prevent this. Brand of the month Every month, we team up with our favourite brands to show appreciation to up-and-coming brands in the skincare industry. This month, the brand of the month is Muihood – a cult-favourite skincare brand which infuses traditional Chinese medicine in their products. Check out their good Chi Cleansing Balm which has been blowing up on social media! Set up during the pandemic, anti-Asian hate crimes gave Charlotte Yau an opportunity to reconnect with her heritage and she took it.
