Skin condition management routine

For a rhinitis sufferer, the changing seasons are pure hell lol. After blowing my nose with tissues all day, the sides of my nostrils and the area between my nose and upper lip turn white and crack, and they sting so much that I tear up just from the touch of skin lotion.

So, around this time of year, I make sure to stick to my own seasonal skincare routine that focuses exclusively on the area under my nose haha. After washing my face and before applying toner to my entire face, the very first step of my routine is applying a thick layer of Madecassol ointment or a rich Panthenol cream to the sore spots under my nose haha. I need to create a protective barrier before applying my skincare products to keep the wounds from stinging and protect them. ㅠㅠ

A great tip for your skin condition management routine during the changing seasons is to apply lip balm not only to your lips but also broadly under your nose to create a coating before bed. ^^ For those of you with rhinitis whose skin barriers have been completely stripped away by tissue friction, make sure to apply a thick layer of moisturizer like an ointment after using wet wipes!
