From Oily Skin Girly to Dry Skin Diaries: Tips for Weather-Proofing Your Glow

For most of my life, I've been an oily skin girly - my T-zone stayed shining, and acne? Always in the mix. Blotting papers were my ride-or-die, and matte primers? Non-negotiable. But now, I'm in my dry skin era. My face, hands, and feet are dry and ashy, and I realized: our skin changes with the weather.

As hot as The Bahamas, little shifts in humidity or cooler temps can throw your skin off. So, if your glow isn't giving what it's supposed to, it might be time for a weather check-in.

Ask yourself:

• How does my skin feel after cleansing? Tight and dry? You're probably dealing with weather-induced dryness.

• Do I have a greasy shine a few hours later? Oily skin's calling, especially when it's humid.

• Feeling smooth in some spots, oily in others? Welcome to combo skin.

Bottom line: Weather changes? Your skin feels it first. Pay attention, tweak your routine, and keep that glow going all year round!

Stay tuned for my next column where I'll spill all the tea on the best products to keep your skin happy, no matter the season!

The ‘Invisible Money’ Trap: How Small Purchases Keep You Broke

Burnout Is Real: Here’s How to Spot It Before It Takes Over

Burnout isn’t just feeling tired—it’s mental, emotional, and physical exhaustion that creeps up when you push too hard for too long. The signs? Constant fatigue, irritability, lack of motivation, and even physical symptoms like headaches or trouble sleeping. If work, school, or life in general feels overwhelming, you might be on the edge of burnout.

To prevent it, set boundaries—don’t overcommit, and learn to say no. Prioritize rest, not just sleep, but real downtime. Step away from screens, get outside, and find moments to breathe. Small habits like journaling, deep breathing, or even a short walk can help reset your mind. Most importantly, listen to yourself. If you’re feeling drained, take it seriously—burnout doesn’t go away on its own.

Recognizing the signs early can save you from total exhaustion. Protect your energy, because you can’t pour from an empty cup.
