Travelling between hot and cold climates a lot!
Hi
I travel a lot for work and am usually based in quite a hot climate. I try to wear SPF moisturiser every day but I find it makes my skin really greasy. Are there any SPF moisturisers out there that won't make my skin greasy? And how can I help my skin when I transition back into the cold of the UK, especially after a long flight?
Thank you!

Hi, there are many great SPF products out there. I always advise you use a dedicated SPF which can act as a moisturiser and not the other way around! Have a look at some of the French pharmacy brands which have some great alternatives.
In terms of coming back to the UK. Flights dehydrate skin a lot. Use a non-pore blocking moisturiser on the flight, keep skincare gentle. Drink plenty of water and avoid alcohol.
